   But perhaps the prior use could help to demonstrate that "eat more ..." is just a generic statement, and so the "eat mor chikin" trademark shouldn't be applied so broadly?

   Here's an "eat more corn, oats, ..." poster from WWI: http://www.archives.gov/education/lessons/sow-seeds/ I wonder if that's good for anything.

   Yeah. It sounds like a form of of "faking it until you make it" to me; Amazon wanted to have a marketplace with a wide selection, but there's a chicken/egg problem, so they faked the seller side to acquire buyers.

   Seems hard to gauge the proportion of real newbies vs. scammers, though.

   If the files were being served with a text/plain MIME type, it's sensible behavior for Chrome to add .txt, and it's the site's fault for sending the wrong type info.

   I think it depends how you use it. Ultimately, all pride other than human pride and pride in yourself is bullshit. But if taking pride in people who share a superficial similarity with you helps with motivation, and you do so with full awar

    They just released another Netflix-original series, Hemlock Grove. After watching through it, I'm not that impressed. The reviews I've read also seem to be on the negative side.

    This still uses virtualization though, correct? So you don't get full dedicated performance?

    I doubt it would ever make sense to use this over dedicated servers, except at a large scale.

    What phrasing would you use instead of "consumer", and what makes your phrasing better?
18. 768.▲
    by eurleif 14y ago

    The word "consumer" does appear in CISPA, but only in one paragraph, referring to "consumer terms of service or consumer licensing agreements". I don't see what's so bad about using "consumers" to refer to people who consume a particular se

    It really depends what kind of business you're building. If you rely on the network effect, for example, 5% of your user base helps to lock in the rest of your users, and so losing it may have a greater overall impact than just 5%.

    There's no way those ATMs are stocked with enough cash for him to withdraw even a small percentage. I guess he could withdraw some every day, and probably live quite well on that income; but coming back to an ATM over and over wouldn't be s

    I think the Armory (Silk Road's sister site for weapons) is evidence against that. It was shut down because it wasn't profitable for the owner(s). Funding obviously wouldn't be an issue if it were the government, so if the Armory were good

    I think the point was that you can't tell if `foo bar` is equivalent to `bar(foo())` or `bar(foo(value_from_stack))` or `bar(foo(val1, val2))` or `foo(); bar()` or what unless you know the stack effect of the words.

    What's the basis for following the social contract being an obligation?

    Thanks, yeah, I meant contracts. I'm on my phone.

    So, just to be perfectly clear: you don't believe that people have any moral obligation not to murder each other. But they do have a moral obligation to follow contracts (the government's contract to do what the people want).

    If that were true, why would gamers prefer games with better graphics? Why does Valve make a fortune selling virtual hats if no one cares how their character looks?

    You'll run out of people willing to sell at the lower price, or buy at the higher price, eventually.
