Mint lost me, because it's too much of a PITA to keep the credentials managed for their screenscrapers. Also it seems like all my banks redid their websites in Angular or React over the past year, and Mint really hasn't handled th

Somebody needs to tell Hardee's and Carl Jr... Also, maybe don't spam your ads in the Boston metro area, when the nearest franchise is like 1000 miles away.

I didn't know that abou the Rijksmuseum, that's very cool. Had a lot of fun spending a day there last year on vacation. Do you know if the ship models are included?

They've been saying that for a few years, but nobody seems to be buying it. The store is still a wasteland of mobile-style shovelware, and none of the real Windows applications have made the jump, far as I have seen.

I think the parent claim is that Windows Mobile is a dead plarform, which, it pretty much is, after the nokia fiasco.

Is it maybe time to step back and think about whether having a low-level 3D graphics API in the browser makes any sense at all? I know, we HAVE to run every conceivable thing out of the browser and on Javascript possible. But just maybe b

We have one good GPU manufacturer and you want to destroy it by having it swallowed up by the shambling corpse of Big Blue? No, just no.

Which is a wise thing to keep in mind when studying the bible. The history surrounding the writing, compiling, codifying, translation and reinterpretation of what became the bible is somewhat fascinating.

That's a good point. It's slightly reminiscent of Haskell, where you have to start trying to understand the IO monad and do notation to do the most trivial real-world examples. In other languages, you might do File.ReadAllLines(&q

The NFL is the only reason I still have cable tv. If I could get any kind of reception for over-the-air TV, I'd dump the basic package I still have, but I'm just far enough away from where Fox, CBS and NBC locals broadcast from to

This. We can happily allow millions of illegal immigrants in to work as seasonal farm labor, or import unskilled refugees from war-torn, ideologically questionable areas, that become a drain on social services, but we throw up barriers for

Not every massively destructive revolt, invasion or war directly overthrew a dynasty, but the history is littered with revolts and incursions from the steppes, even during some of the strongest dynasties. The Tang and Qing dynasties were a

On average, there has been a massively destructive war or peasants revolt or foreign invasion every three or four generations, down through the ages of Chinese history. But I'm sure it is the same sentiment as the Dutch expression I re

I cannot disagree more heartily. $1 million is really not that much money. I would immediately start squirreling hard currency away in the walls or burying mason jars of it in the back yard if idiocy like that were made law.

The Expanse novels have picked up a little with the last two, Nemesis Games and Babylon's Ashes, but it's hard to beat those first two. My favorite of all might be the novella The Churn, which explores the backstory of Amos, the L

Mass Effect 1 was also more fun to play. The weird retcon to justify introducing boring regular ammo mechanics was dumb. Also, people love to hate on cruising around in the Mako, but I loved it. ME1 was so much more sandboxy than the sequel

You can sweat out a lot of beer doing brute-force manual labor. Especially if it's relatively low-test beer - it's pretty hard to drink it fast enough to get tipsy. I mean, the daily ration of beer in the Royal Navy, when they wer

Sounds like this should have quite an impact on most of the companies that hire a lot of H1Bs. Out of the list below, only Apple is hitting that salary level with their average. (edit) http://www.myvisajobs.com/Reports&#x2F
