Doesn't that mean that it's expected to rise in price? No. Because people can buy and sell bitcoins freely then its current price should include peoples expectations about future value.

This is a very different sort of security flaw than with Java and Flash. Google Forms was allowing users to create forms asking for information and then send links to other people asking them to fill them out. Which is exactly the intent

How often have you done this? How often does it work? What fraction of people you communicate with are using sufficiently proper mail clients?

You no longer have to think about it. Just send your message in the way that's the default for your mail client, and modern mail readers like gmail will make it easy for your readers to get appropriate context.

Modern email clients use threading and quote-hiding to make everything look like bottom-posting. People who want to see context for your reply can just look up and see previous messages. I agree that you want discussion posts in chronologi

Unless you're staying on a computer your 'pure colors' aren't really pure. And pure green (0,255,0) is really unpleasant.

I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is the "seed software" as it existed before you is still free for all to use. The software license analogy would be BSD (any non-copyleft license).

Your link doesn't argue with Cowen's first sentence. When Cowen says "essentially pilotless" I understand it to mean "keeps going without operator intervention", and after reading your link that's still my understanding of what happens.

Smaller pieces are probably also more dense; less internal air.

I don't think the car is a better driver than people are, but I think it will be soon. And once it is we should let people sleep, be drunk, or do whatever while their car drives them.

Alternate hypothesis: pieces are getting smaller. Cost per piece looks like it's falling because we've gone from http://brickset.com/detail/?set=WEETABIX1-1 to http://brickset.com/detail/?set=10223-1

What sort of repairs are you talking about? The only times apartments I've lived in have needed repairs we asked the landlord to do them.

$550/month after rent is totally doable. That's a good bit more than what my wife and I live on (per-person). This is possible, in that we do it, so how? March through February of last year my wife and I were living with another couple (w
