Rogers is the top ISP in the set, but according to some official statements, their systems inadvertently began severe DPI shaping on encrypted and P2P traffic since September 2010 around when Netflix was rolled out to Canada. This issue st

Absolutely agree. I also highly recommend FuzzyFinder if you like TextMate's "Go To File" (CTRL+SHIFT+R Eclipse, CTRL+SHIFT+O NetBeans), and also combined with the Project plugin. Here's a decent tutorial in setting it up: http://colonelp

No one ever sold anything to me (and maybe others) with mystery and exclusivity alone without any word-of-mouth or any feedback/context. The value in exclusivity comes from associated prestige. The value in mystery comes from curiosity

If you want to write a similar book for Ruby then have some class and use your own words and write your own book. I think Zed Shaw does not want his book plagiarized -- simple as that and has nothing to do with what language is being swap

My worst experience on Chrome or any browser isn't Flash or a suite of extensions I am using. Most of the pain comes from Acrobat integration that locks up a core at the worst time with all Chrome tabs seizing to function and a Chrome tab

YC applicants: In case there needs to be some explanation as to why to allow or discourage this, maybe we can give some explicit rationale here. Why did some of you guys share your submissions and how does it benefit you as a YC applicant?

This is the kind of summary that complements "Offer HN" posts so well. I totally missed your original thread, something I would have taken advantage of if I saw it. By the time I might have seen it, the service would be long gone. Even i

Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA), which Nutt used, is a tool for decision making, not something "sophisticated" to generate scientific evidence! It cannot estimate a drug's harm. Alcohol is wide-spread and deserves a discussion fo
