Wait, so someone is surprised that taking an image they found through Google image search and just pasted onto their blog is copyright infringement? What did they think would happen?

I'm sure your point utterly convinced the clerk being paid minimum wage at your ice cream shop of the errors of his employer. Would you have accepted it if the clerk explained to you that requiring a Facebook account is the most hassle

If there are 100 blue eyed people, each of them will kill themselves on day 99 (because they can only see 99 other blue-eyed people). However, the brown eyed people will wait until day 100. On day 100, a brown eyed person won't know th

Man, I need to check up on my VIM helptext, I have no idea what 'ML algorithm' does as a regex flag. Also, vim will accept any character right after the 's' as a regex boundary, so you could rewrite it as :s:AK-47:

We are a small 5 programmer company, and we implemented a couple of ansible scripts to deploy our applications a 2-3 month project. For us, at least, a full-time sysadmin is overkill, and I would expect any decent programmer to be able to i

Hah, phone manufacturers, agreeing on a standard instead of gouging people by selling expensive chargers! I think that there was a draft EU directive to standardize on mini-usb, but it was scrapped after manufacturers voluntarily complied.

How about just starting with standards for downloading one's own data from cloud operators? Maybe legislate an easy way to download all my emails from gmail and upload them to outlook.com. Wouldn't that be very useful?

Bouncing badly typed addresses is more useful for users than stymieing spammers. However, a spammer doesn't need to know if an existing gmail address is being actively used or not.
