"Just avoid holding it that way." - Steve Jobs EDIT: Interesting. Watching the votes go up and then down makes me think that half of the people do not appreciate my comment. In that case, I feel like I should elaborate. If the pho

Don't remember this either. I distinctly remember using it on recommendation of my older cousins for elementary school essays and the teachers loved everything I wrote.

As a nation, we've decided that every child should be educated. I think that's a good goal to have, although there may be a more efficient way to do it. We kind of have a system in place with magnet schools and selective enrollmen

It helped a bit, but I'm uncomfortable with the idea when a text editor uses up almost 90MB just to open a text file when Sublime Text opens much more in 25MB. Especially since the benefits of Atom just don't seem to be much more

I've noticed the opposite. I see more jokes than before and they don't seem to be downvoted when I'm around. The jokes aren't even clever; just low reaching ones just like on reddit.

I think he's referring to how some services just push you to sign up on their mobile web page and then it avoids the 30% hike. It's fairly easy to do, the only concern being potentially confusing new sign-ups, but I don't thi

OP would have to be pretty oblivious to life if he needed feedback for that interaction. He saw that someone was in a conversation, tried to interrupt, and then was offended when that someone didn't want to be interrupted. Look, if som

I believe that you still have to build it to install it on your iPhone, so the likelihood of this being used for piracy is low. Not many commercial apps will have their source code available publicly.

It says "suck less", not more secure. And this isn't something that most users would use.

Sony Z3 Compact. Is 5.01 inches tall, but your original Moto X was 5.09 and you seemed to like it fine. Fast/recent specs. Runs a recent version of Android.

I just read the each vs for part and I don't see anything wrong with it. He's saying it's easier for beginners to grasp the for loop and it's also a pretty universal loop. What's wrong with what he said?

Would you have preferred if they delayed the Pebble Steel Time a few more months so you could feel better about your order? You could switch your order to the Pebble Steel Time right now. I don't see how this adversely affects you at a

When we create a computer that can do everything a human can do but better/faster, then we can call it smarter. I find it odd that you think just because smartness is hard to quantify that there is no value in calling a computer smart.

It's the configurations that kept me on it for so long! Things just worked out of the box and it was amazing. I did a minimal install of arch + the necessary components once (and a netinst of Debian too) but it wasn't the same bec

Didn't Crunchbang do that already? It's been a few years since I last used it, but I remember the sources.list pointing directly to Debian's repos and there was a special Crunchbang repo for small things. Maybe I'm remem

I think you're misunderstanding me. I'm not using that to justify Google's actions, I'm explaining to him why he's being downvoted. By virtue of it being available on Chrome, his argument that this action is intende

I just started learning Rails and haven't deployed yet, but the thought of upgrading after deploying a project scares me a lot.

I assume they mean when it's clear who arrived first. As a pedestrian, I hate cars waving me through when I clearly get there ~2 seconds after they do.

That's a really great find, wow. I wonder how the author concluded that Caltech didn't consider racial status then.

Well, it looks like they're only months apart from each other. The House of Paine one refers to 1999 in the html file, and this post was published February 2000. Is it possible they're the same person? Either way, it's kind o

I just want to add that I couldn't get past the first third of the book for the same reason. It felt like every chapter was another "humblebrag" event and the pranks weren't really that funny to me either. I'm sure

What do you not like about conversation view? As someone that's spent most of his email life with it, I'm kinda curious of the other side.

Oh, it's definitely huge in that demographic (I'm in it). My only question is for how long. My peers are a fickle bunch.

Well, the price drop of the iPhone only happened once and then hasn't really happened since (besides selling older models for cheaper). Is once enough to denote a trend? I'm willing to bet that Apple will release a cheaper option

Yeah, at least for me, that's how your original post came across. I think your points that you declare here are fine points and would likely have been well-received (or at least not downvoted) if you had started with it to begin with.

It's relevant in that it shows that there is most likely a reason that support doesn't last > 3 years. If you're going to state facts like "hardware gets deprecated" simply just to state it, then you're not
