The Paperwhite and Voyage are front-lit, not backlit. They should be fine. This article on what I assume was the same study http://arstechnica.com/science/2014/12/e-readers-and-tablets... mentions specificall

Amazon has created a similar service for a lower price. Amazon Prime gives you unlimited access to a large part of their video catalog. For $79 a year instead of Netflix's $7.99 * 12.

I realize what you're doing. This was more of a "really cool feature request" than a bug report. favicon.ico does respond with a 404 though.

It would be awesome if http://robohash.org/google.jpg generated a jpg, and http://robohash.org/google.png generated a png. It would be even more awesome if http://robohash.org/favicon.ico generated a .ico file.

I think he answers his own question: "it is probably quicker to write your own custom app than it is to try and work out if any of the existing apps fulfils your requirements."

I like this question, and I've got something that works, but I'm not sure it's the prefered solution. function say(arg) { return function(word) { alert(arg + " " + word); }; } It solves "hello world", but wouldn't wor

Fixed. I've moved the rational number stuff to a comment, I'm working on the formatting, but I think what I've got now works.

Thanks, I've added them. Not only do I not have an interpreter for any of these languages handy, I've never even used them!

http://0.30000000000000004.com/ Because why not? I've populated it with some languages that I can convenient access to an interpreter for. If you post/send me .1 + .2 in any other languages, I'll try and put them up.

I have a UL-30 and the wildly sensitive touchpad is my only complaint. I love the keyboard, battery life, and how light it is. It performs more than well enough for web development, web browsing, video watching.

I could really use one myself. My backups are spread between several 200GB hard drives, with a 1TB I could condense them all into one and pass on my smaller drives.

You give up the right to drive 65 miles per hour on a public highway. If own a large enough tract of pavement, you can drive as fast as you want on it.

As far as I know, something along these lines already exists in Canada. Not the "vaccinating computers" part, but I had a few friends in college who had their internet cut off until I ran a virus scan on their computer. It was a pain in the

I can't see a lot of use for this as a webapp. If I were going to use this, I'd want it where my unrecognized files are. If you could connect this to a right-click in my filesystem, or have it as a browser extension that intercepts download
