I'm not an objectivist, I just think intelligence has nothing to do with the choosing. Ultimately one decides animals should exist as a delicious, nutritious source of protein, or those who would harm one's family should painfully cease to.

I disagree. I think it takes intelligence to accept and realize the ambiguity, complexity and downright contradictions that are endemic to our existence.

This is completely subjective from my own experience, but it seems whenever I've tried taking fish oil supplements before, on more than one occasion I've felt kind of depressed and lethargic after a few days of taking them so I stop, then e

I think the proposed heavy tax on corporate contributions makes a nicer distinction between speech with words and "speech" with money.

Remember the Solaris screensaver, how they used to blink around in a Conway game of life simulation? I'll miss those little guys...

No. In fact, lately I find its too much trouble even to bother logging into delicious. I'll either star it or share it in Google Reader, or else I'll let it go. If it really matters, I'll just search for it again. Guess I'm feeding Google "

Completely agree. I think the biggest problems facing such a shift though are how to address "rendezvous" of the clients and the same critical-mass adoption that plagues a traditional social networking contender.

It probably means linux & homebrew games (games that can be developed without the often expensive and exclusive commercial, licensed SDKs required to develop for consoles) are coming soon for PS3. Maybe a port of Boxee (like XBMC for or

I'm a little confused about the license. HyperGraphDB is LGPL, but ships with Berkeley DB. Isn't BDB GPL? Could I distribute a closed-source app with this?

Look at it like voting in America. Yeah, it probably doesn't mean squat, especially if your views contradict the local majority. But you still do it, right?

I saw a tiger head for about a second. I said, "oh cool". Then Chrome said: "Aw, snap!"

My hope is Google withdraws and throws the resources into developing censorship-circumvention technology.

At least Microsoft and Apple produce some useful applications. Macrovision is nothing but a preventer of entertainment consumption and fair-use.

Google likes to ask lots of algorithmic questions in rapid succession. At least they did when I interviewed. Knowing of a solution or library was not good enough (they seem to reinvent their own 'everything' anyway, perhaps for good reason?

I could see applications of this being very useful for military and peaceful solutions, especially if superatom chemistry can replace the demand for rare-earth elements.
