Have you considered that you may just have a different taste? To me, the fitted hulu logo looks so much better. I like the crispness.

I think those symbols are just learned. Take folders. They look like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/50/Earthwise.jpg That makes it obvious where the symbol is coming from. The only problem is that those kinds of folders

Not so much evidence (from trials, say), rather plausibility. We do not understand how Homeopathy works, but it goes even a level deeper: There is a certain and very specific process for creating those homeopathic remedies and from what we

When something is factually wrong it’s factually wrong. That’s it. There is nothing else to it. Nobody said that there is no security hole and no problem.

This comment doesn’t defend Apple. It doesn’t make any value judgments about Apple at all. It merely attacks the article.

But cars did also become widely used in those other countries during that time. I don't think that blaming presidents makes sense (and that part was a joke, anyway), but cars as an explanation for the decline of hats seems intriguing. As yo

A unified theory doesn’t have to explain consciousness. Far from it. Why should it? That’s absurd.

That’s impressive, actually. Whether or not you succeed in lotteries is out of your control. There is a certain probability your lottery ticket will win and there is nothing you can do to change that probability. Your success in winning the

It seems even many of those who really love Android are extremely underwhelmed by this phone. It’s just another boring Android phone, there are tons of those. There is nothing exceptional or special about it. There is only one iPhone every

It’s blow your mind time. Ready? Double-tap any text you are editing in order to select a word. That also allows you to drag the endpoints. Tapping with two fingers selects the whole paragraph. In short: Tapping places the cursor (and bring

While inter-rater reliability is a concern for identifying ethnicities, other traits should be more reliable (gender, hair color). Still, stuff like that needs to be pre-tested. You basically let the coders code a limited set of photos and

Impressive work! It’s a really nice app, not just normal and boring, not a visual mess, a joy to navigate. If only I could convince myself to pay.

Really? This is common knowledge. Steve Jobs said it during one of his keynotes. I won't search this for you, you can do this on your own.

Unlikely. We already have one example where Apple is enforcing the “no malware” rule and that’s the App Store. On the App Store, Apple reserves itself the right to not only remove apps from the store (which Apple has done often and we know

Apple's EMEA headquarters are in Cork, Ireland. 2,800 people (and growing) are working there. In the last quarter, 23 percent of Apple’s profits were made in EMEA (compared to 33 percent in the Americas, 28 percent in Asia-Pacific, 16 perce

Oh, look, it's a tabloid article. Not packaged that way and with more words, also more eloquent, but still a tabloid article. Why can't this sort of advocacy (which is important) not take the high ground for once? Fighting FUD with FUD is d

No, it’s not necessarily immoral to break the law. There is it again, the error to try and map morality to laws perfectly. Whether or not not paying taxes is immoral (by abusing obvious loopholes) is different from the law.

That was a nice explanation of why what’s moral doesn’t map to what's legal. I’m not sure what your point is, though.

That’s not how it works. A single app should never try to singlehandedly change the OS. That's just stupid and doesn’t work. Please, self-important developers, don't force me to deal with your personal stupid version of how the OS should wo

Using loopholes when you know they are loopholes seems pretty immoral to me. You don’t have to agree with me on that, but that would for example be a prime reason for shaming them. Morals are not equal to the law. Immoral things stay immora

> Playing within the rules created by society is not morally wrong. There are people who honestly believe that? It’s not that simple, it really isn’t. I, for example, think there are many immoral but legal things and I want it to stay t

Could be culture. We are used to films looking a certain way and TV looking different, everything else could very well be rationaizations. Not that it changes much about the situation, though.

Ehm, selective enforcement by the state most certainly can be a problem, I cannot, however, see how selective enforcement by people or companies (who, in civil law, are always free to sue or not to sue for whatever reasons) is bad or can ev

You do not use surveys to learn about gravity. That would be stupid. You use surveys whenever there is no better way to get the data you want. We have better ways to learn about gravity than surveys, so we use those. This is true for all sc

They picked the time in a way that it was night across the Pacific (where nearly no one lives). That way it was a bit late in Japan and a bit early on the West Coast. The world doesn't start and end with the West Coast, especially not for A
