I had to turn off touch to click on my MacBook Air because I often brush the pad with the heel of my hand while typing, causing the OS to refocus on wherever the cursor happened to be.

Well just to clarify, I wasn't counting the 3rd Reich since it is "dead", similar for Ghengis Khan and the Romans. To me, guilt is what you've done, innocence is what you haven't done. The British government has don

My phone is my primary device for reading, but I find typing a hassle, so it is basically consumption only. Around Jan-Feb 2013 I read the whole ASOIAF (i.e. Game Of Thrones) series on an iPhone 4, since then I prefer it to laptop or paper,

I'm not sure that landing is more dangerous than takeoff. It's true that the thing is pointed towards the earth, but on the other hand there is a lot less fuel to explode.

I checked spot instances just now, and it was less than $0.10 an hour. So for batch jobs that might be an option. And if you're using it interactively, than you can always go EBS backed and just turn it off when you're done.

Yeah, it sounds like the reason that they came off as glib and triumphant is because they didn't anticipate how serious the vulnerability would end up being.

Now that Putin has clearly said "no", if evidence comes out that they have dragnet surveillance like the NSA, then he is shown to be lying. This is like how they were able to prove that the NSA was lying in its responses, over and

I choose to interpret this in a way that isn't anti-planning, just anti-scheduling. Pmarca wrote up a similar anti-system a while ago, although it is more structured: http://pmarchive.com/guide_to_personal_productivity.

You have to draw the line somewhere. Instructing your minions to torture a prisoner is way, way over the line for a lot of people, myself included. Sure, the Iraq war was a trillion dollar mistake, but that's just money. Live by the sw

Yeah, up until very recently it would be possible to make a script that would log you into a random yahoo mail account. For vulnerable servers right now it would be better to just block port 443, forcing regular HTTP is safer.

Side question: in what sense are you saying Ivy league is like a potlatch? Song-and-dance-and-reciprocity? Or conspicuous gift-giving (like "purity potlatch")? Or slave exchange?
