These look really nice and I want to get one, but shipping to the US is $40. :/

As far as I can tell, Microsoft told nobody. A blog post and an email to OneDrive users would have sufficed, neither of which use telemetry or happened.

This is exactly what I use it for. When I'm ssh'd into a server without my vim config, I prefer to use nano simply because I'm so used to my own vim. Using any other vim config is actually difficult, especially since I'm

The software market, the Internet market, the entire ecosystem, it's working because the price of entering is lower. This isn't because of lesser regulation or a lack of standards and oversight, it's because over the past dec

Same here on Firefox for iOS. Both links show the "hacked" text.

I am "Lara" in this article's sense, and I love NPR. Being able to listen for any amount of time and still get news that I haven't heard before is nice. At the same time most of the segments I hear are interesting, heart

I can really see this being useful for any language.

I think anti-trust also requires a non-privately administered market. In Apple's App Store, they own the servers serving the app market, giving them control. I don't think the government could force them to keep an app on their se

I don't think (not a lawyer) that they could do anything if you put a disclaimer that it is a parody of their "creative work." That should allow use of slightly changed (LessAdsDailyMail) trademarks, and proper citations coul

These were my thoughts entirely while reading the article. If I want a command line utility, I really don't want to install npm then mess with any problems with that. I want to simply 'brew install' everything like that and b

In my experience, there are three groups of kids in high school, at least concerning future studies/employment. One group maybe wants to do something because it pays well, with no motivation because they aren't passionate. The nex

I disagree about the pause button. It works equally well without context. This is anecdotal, but I have seen it successfully used in charades to mean "pause." Now, your comparison to the hamburger menu does make sense, and I agree

That's assuming that the vast majority of employment can be automated away at a low cost at this point in time. Which isn't true. Even if it can be in the US or other developed countries, that in no way applies to everywhere.

I am desperately trying to get this to work with my pyenv-virtualenv anaconda installation, but I can't get it to work out. I also tried setting the path the ~/.pyenv/shims/python, but that didn't work out either.

Very interesting: reading this on my phone, the header image moves with a parallax effect when the phone is tilted.

This is a perfect idea to make government more transparent. I couldn't find if anywhere in this website there were the regulations put in simpler terms. Allowing more people to understand them and not only access them seems like the wa

This seems very useful for schools, who both need lots of paper (still even now) and who need it only for a short time. Schools have the space and resources for such a machine, and they could potentially save lots of money and paper that ot

In this article, and apparently this happens a lot, jurors are not allowed to research the laws they are supposed to reach a verdict on. Also, the jurors cannot get the court transcript or ask the prosecution to repeat the charges. How is t

It's interesting to look at if this article is fiction or non-fiction. It is certainly amazing writing with a strong message, but seems to be so strange to be non-fiction. Then again, I knew about some of this from the excellent Illust

It's more like pinning a photo on a pinboard you share with a group of friends. Mailing it would be like sending it to them directly. I think hashtags are more of a way to share to a group, where as mentioning with @ is a driect way of
