   I find the article is one of the best and most informed I've read. And by CNN of all people.

   I'm sure these tweets won't help with donations. "Wikipedia needs to fuck right off" "Fucking Wikipedia trying to be cocky"

   Just as I predicted last week, Twitter is filled with people complaining about the Wikipedia blackout. College students in particular are screwed cause they can't get their work done. StratGirlStories writes, "WTF WHY IS EVERYTHING BEING BL

   Heh. Obviously some of us read the books and at least four have not.

   I saw another article with a title that said Woz thought Android "bests" the iPhone and he said no such thing.

   Absolutely. Apparently, Wozniak was not one you wanted to get advice from.

   I was wondering that myself. I'm not so sure that putting something like this up that fast doesn't present dangers.

   Absolutely agree with Daniel.

    You need all that to figure out the 20K+ functions/libraries/system calls to get anything to work. If you need all that, use emacs.

    Here is the only thing that will happen: doing this will just piss people off that they can't get to their site. Then, by the end of the next day, no one will remember it happened at all.

    It works just fine in Opera. Why do you say it is blocked?

    When I hear about these things I can't help but think, this is how it is over there. This may be their culture and way of life. So how should we think about that? I do know that some have expressed unhappiness over the hours but, in the NPR

    This is really stupid. While purporting to clear things up, it's just bad mouthing the bill and taking quotes from others who are against it. It's similar to anything I've been sent.

    I will never understand why anyone would want to teach little kids to program. Especially those who barely know how to add and subtract. I know of no upwardly mobile, reasonably successful adult, 18+, who knows how to program. This makes as

    This guy doesn't know the difference between tracking trends and "predictions". Trends are based on decisions already made.

    I have not been convinced SOPA is a bad thing. I read the bill and all the chicken little posts around the web and even asked someone to show me the basis of their fear. I have never received any response beyond the chicken little screams o

    Google has said from the beginning that the purpose of Chrome was to move the web forward, not compete with other browsers, and I had forgotten that.

    Your very comment indicates you haven't a clue what you are doing or talking about. You are a child.

    That's my point about "eradicating disease". How many decades and billions of dollars have been poured into Africa with no success? How many free notebook computers have been handed out by smiley billionaires? It's a fable people love to te

    Yes. China is not our friend and the US owes them billions. Yet Gates is pumping millions into their economic future. China can stand on their own two feet. Let them make their own effort.

    Then I guess I will articulate it. While there are so many of us out of work and starving, Gates has no problems pumping millions into Africa and China. Africans have never shown the ability to stand on their own two feet and China is not o

    I agree with all your reasons. I stopped buying the newspaper years ago. Today, I'd not buy it because the local paper is more popular news than hard news if it's news at all. The number of newspapers worth reading can be counted on one han

    "Google's privacy invasions..." Could I have a list, with details, of these privacy invasions? "the shenanigans that Apple and Google have been pulling" Is that your opinion or fact? Were they mis-steps, mistakes or shenanigans? Are you bri
