Deja vu - Apple has pretensions that everyone (and especially its biggest rivals) are stealing from them, while simultaneously copying successful features from countless other products. The non-recognition of this fact of course is the bigg

This article is avoiding terminology, data and any specifics on the problem that it renders it useless. You might be fooled it says something useful if you don't know what a 'model' means in any science. So what is the point of the article?

Isn't it lighter than air? The article also claims its heavier, but I assumed it was a mistake.

Thank you for your hard work. GNOME 3 is amazing - its very non-intrusive, responsive and very functional. I've never been happier with a desktop.

Good thing is that old games are still there, and you don't need expensive hardware to play them. Now I play 5 year old games with a GPU integrated into my CPU. And since I'm pretty casual as a gamer (a few times a month), I'm pretty conten

This is true, its the infamous "Fifth point" on many different IDs (they had a system internal passports to keep people in check). It was really easy for any official to discriminate if he wanted to and hard not to when its the policy. The

Well Apple is a business and has done what business are supposed to - make money. Is there really an ideology other than that? DRM is a good idea only for content industry. Why risk losing the profits from $200 devices for a scheme having n

Screen-savers to me a relic from a time of phosphor burn-in, slow starting monitors and an annoyance that I turn-off. I think GNOME 3 was right to not maintain them.

Suicide and mental deceases that cause it aren't very rational. Plus he might have had many personal/personality problems and the whole loss thing was just something that was the last drop.

Is there a good reason to actually use this? Doesn't your window manager already have workspaces? And in them you can add non-Emacs windows!

Eventually the US government will sell back the banks and make some income, so its hardly comparable. Sweden in the early nineties did this and they recovered more than half their money. The bailouts were a necessary step to prevent severe

The GNOME 3 fallback is comparable to windows safe-mode: - video effects disabled - is supposed to be used when correcting problems - there aren't any improvements to it - no desktop icons, no panel applets. Just the necessities. So it isn'

disclaimer: I really love my GNOME 3 In GNOME the fallback mode is really a fallback. You aren't supposed to use it, like the safe mode in Windows. And you don't need to - the interface is really easy to use with a cursor pointer (I use at

I agree with you. I just wanted to point out something you wrote yourself in your second note: "In some situations, you won't have a chance to correct mis-understandings." I think this is more important than to be in footnote. Its worth to

This is what I found in common: people want to "make an impact", but are stymied by other people who don't care about their ideas and don't appreciate their effort.

I imagine something like a dynamic bode plot, from which you can judge the stability of a system. But that is a plot of data, not an analog computing method on paper. You can simply improve the presentation or organization on data. I suppos

I upvoted this article because it is really interesting, but unfortunately I disagree that nomography can be relevant today. It is forgotten so easily because its not worth the effort with the availability of computers. Computers aren't har

Unpaid interns? Ouch. I didn't think of that. Although there are hidden costs even behind unpaid labor. Office space, HR costs (hiring isn't easy), training, etc, etc.

This is true. I've been told by PR people that 80% of the content in a newspaper or a magazine is written by PR agencies. I have a question, though. Why don't they also create an expert system that writes PR pieces? I imagine it would be re

Competing in what? They don't offer the same courses! Alison has stuff like "personal development", "touch typing" and even adobe products and a bit of Mathematics and Science, while Khan Academy is mostly Math and Economics in detail.
