So you say being a paying customer gives a higher guarantee that you won't be locked out of your domain and be forced to switch to a new one, potentially losing a good chunk of your readership. It makes sense, and thank you for your an

So you do say it's mainly about signaling your independence and profficiency?

Limited traffic / static pages only / free advertising for other products that bring in revenue. Do you think there are more insidious 'catches'? I am struggling to come up with one.

You are correct in that there are fundamental problems with a statement as simple as the one I made. Don't take it at face value though. If you ignore your surroundings and formulate an opinion that is obviously different, I'd arg

Perhaps I should have been more precise (since you ommited a key part of my sentence) in pointing out that any person on their own is probably wrong about a lot of things. Only by taking into consideration a large enough sample of opinions

I'd argue that the "emerging health industrial complex" you mention has been with humans since the dawn of civilization. One wonders how we were able to envision tools that help us move away from our opportunistic instincts.

You shouldn't trust anybody other than yourself and your ability to recognise scientific consensus. This process is not easy and as goes for most things in life, diversification is key. Basing your research on a single article/boo

It is a problem of optimising for taste and perceived nutrition instead of nutrition. Humans will buy tasty things that are marketed as nutritious. Companies will try to widen the profit margin by optimising the process in that direction (i

I don't see why you can't share some and keep some isolated. Share the file system that stores media and documents, and isolate the platform specific files. Use the same cpu/ram/gpu for both. This way you don't rei

Some of the ultrabooks aren't far from the specs of a modern flagship smartphone. Also, I believe that you are dismissing what seems to be the predominant smartphone customer - one who uses the device to consume entertainment. As for t
