This doesn't seem like a good argument. You could provide a diagram of a modern car that would be just as complex as a section of this image, but I don't think anyone would argue that it's inherently impossible to understand

This is my exact outlook on it. You have a very fair chance of Soylent being significantly healthier than your current diet (as an American). At the very least, it provides the nutrients that a hundred years of studying dietary deficiencies

In all fairness, when you mentioned corporate colors, I immediately thought of 3 of the companies on that list (Home Depot, John Deere, and UPS). And I can also see how using Texas and Burnt Orange together could be an issue. Caterpillar is

I'm not sure if the lack upward mobility in the South is a result of our economic landscape. It plausible that it's due to the lingering effects of segregation and the fact that the vast majority of our bottom 20% are African Amer

Isn't it by definition artificially high if you have to enact a law to enforce it? I mean, if it wasn't artificial, that would already be the wage...

HN is the most obvious example of this for me. It's one of my most visited sites in both browsers. In Firefox, I can type "y" into the url field, and it's the first result. In Chrome, the same "y" lists youtube

This is exactly how Firefox currently works, but you just press enter instead of up and then enter. If what you've got in the address bar doesn't look like an address, it'll google it for you.

Really? I've been using Nightly exclusively on my laptop and haven't noticed any problems. Maybe just lucky. Edit: Oh, the mac version of Chrome. Gotcha.

Is this not default behavior? I've never had an addon installed, but just typing in a query and pressing enter in the URL routes it to Google... Edit: Ah, I suppose the auto-complete is different.

Firefox is comparable to Chrome in terms speed and features. However, Mozilla doesn't have the same incentive to collect and use data on their customers that is inherent to Google, an advertising company. In addition to that, Firefox i

That might be true for 10.7 to 10.8, but 10.6 to 10.8 is a bigger gap. It's all that you listed (and most users would gain more than that) plus ASLR, TRIM support, resizing windows from any edge, AirDrop, improved Finder, much better m

If you go to Help > About Firefox when there's an update to be installed, there's a restart button that restores tabs. As for memory leaks, it's been a project for a while now: https://areweslimyet.com/ I&

I've had some issues with internal sites I use at work that are auto-generated Microsoft stuff. And for a while I couldn't get the new Google Maps to load every time on Firefox. It seems to be have been fixed at some point since i

I've felt like Firefox has been pretty light on features in its releases since it switched to rapid release, but this one is packed with stuff. Awesome! It's becoming more and more rare for me to have to switch to Chrome to get a

I think Microsoft's change has actually made me more likely to purchase the PS4. Before, the differentiating features of the Xbox One (sharing, cloud availability, possibly lower new-game pricing) were enabled by the DRM. Now, the Xbox

If you're relying on more than 6 months of support (or any support really) from a free product in an enterprise environment, you're doing it wrong.

At least in Georgia, "Christian" usually implies you're non-denominational as opposed to Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, etc. It would be interesting to see a regional map of religious terms similar to the linguistic maps that are on the front

Georgia has a similar thing going on. Looks like a pretty large radius around Atlanta thinks Atlanta is "the City".

Yep, that first builder is hard to avoid. "I'll never pay for anything in this game. What, 50% increase in output? Well, I can reward the devs a bit I suppose..." And thus begins the gemming.

The issue with that is that no hospital is willing to be the first. Hospital: We're going to lower costs by not letting doctors choose their equipment. Talented surgeons: Welp, don't want to work there. Patients: Why would I go to the hospi

I wasn't implying that. I guess the vibe I've always gotten is that space technology innovation has slowed pretty significantly since the height of the space race and that it would have been neat to see it get reinvigorated so recently.

If I had to guess, Maps and GMail. I've been trying to get rid of Google as well, and there aren't really any good alternatives to Maps and changing email addresses is a hassle.
