   We can't forecast the weather two weeks out yet we claim to be able to do it 30 years out? Clearly the models are wrong however which direction they are wrong in is the crapshoot that gets people fighting on "global warming is fak

   I've seen this before and it's in my opinion an example of how divisive/slimy politics can get. When city/state/federal governments have budget issues they shut off the "consumer" facing services to get th

   I found the rents quoted seemed low (even if you're sharing a space) I pay $1650 for a one bedroom near downtown San Mateo - and I feel like I'm getting a deal. One of my coworkers used to split a 2 bedroom that code $3500/mo

   I would like to point out we're also significantly more overweight, have higher rates of heart disease, have a quickly aging population of baby boomers etc.. Your argument is not logical as there are plenty of other reasons we have hig

   While on a personal level I agree with you, having interacted directly with my users for many of them it's not pretending (idiot is the wrong term) I don't think it's a good idea to measure users based on our own yardstick. N

    What if your backend APIs have changed and you never expected to support that older version? I can see a lot of the older apps not working at all in that case.

    All my apps have compiled without an issue into 64bit on XCode 5 GM. Now that's not the actual hardware, however I don't anticipate any 64Bit transition related issues.

    At the previous company I worked for I was given one of these tests in the interview process. Later I asked the HR Director about the test and she told me "Well you did crazy good 100% accurate, however the software also factors in whe

    What strikes me is that author of the article did not take into account key data about the proposed Hyperloop system which in itself is lacking data. I wonder if this article would ever have been written if the author had talked to any of t

    That's very impressive. Great job building that, I totally want one now. I'm curious as to how you identify the different Satellites? is there an API available that gives the orbits/names?
