Yet it's still valid to say that almost everyone reading the article, or 95% of people, will never be rich (having the wealth of the top 5%). You can be a rich elite and still realize that your position is not an "everyman" p

I know this is super post-mortem regarding my comment, but my "bullshit" claim was directed at the "Maybe Ulbright is not the world's greatest human, but his service may have saved more lives than anything" and &quo

My problem isn't with the obvious statement that everyone agrees with already (the drug war is ineffective), my problem is with the remaining paragraphs of bullshit in that post.

I don't ever, ever use the Mac App Store for anything. I avoid apps that don't provide an alternative. Just put a download on your site and keep the old version on the store.

Unless you're still on ruby 1.8 (long in the tooth), I don't see how ruby apps from newer versions of ruby will have any trouble integrating with other apps. I can understand a 2.1 app not working on 1.9 or 2.0 in some cases, but

That's awesome. Do they compress uploads? Can I upload RAW images?

It already does, it's called Cloud Drive (and Zocalo). They might still end up snagging some users with this, but that doesn't take away from the possibility that they're using the info for advertising.

Wait, what he's saying is that it's not obvious that View -> Toolbars -> Navigation Toolbar toggles the visibility of the navigation toolbar? I still have nothing but pure distaste for the current "I can look like Chrom

I'm glad I used my spam address. After you enter your email address, you get "an entry" to win this "prize". Then you get another entry for every 3 friends you share it to, or something. It seems like their entire b

The ratio of capital-to-labor money was at an unusual low even in the US during that era. It has since been returning to its pre-WW2 levels. Piketty addresses WW2 a lot in his book, for many reasons including that this economic anomaly occu

They all have netflix. I'm specifically referring to stores here. Each has its own store with its own proprietary media stream. Maybe you're right for Nexus Player, but as an owner of an Apple TV in one room and a Roku in another,

If anything, the market is oversaturated. Each brand is jumping on the bandwagon and offering nothing unique (and no, access to one proprietary media store over another is not unique). I am unfortunate enough to own more than one "clou

Actually I can't think of a single license that would have been valid here unless it came with Mojang's permission. The problem was the proprietary code. Had everything been GPL, not a single copyright holder could have affected t

I agree with you and minimaxir, but it doesn't change the fact that the websites are still unusable. As a user, I'd like to still have a way around the developer's mistakes. I wish it were easier for mobile clients to fool th

Thanks, I'll definitely check it out. I love vim bindings in the browser and I want to go back to the xmonad route on my new workstation. Having vimium/vimperator/pentadactyl made that a lot easier.

Green threads were removed from ruby when 1.9 was released, and we're almost at 2.2 now. Is there some other factor limiting you to one core? Edit: I just want to say I've done some more reading on the subject and have learned tha

It definitely is. I've benchmarked similar solutions where the time it took to perform 1000+ POSTs to a REST endpoint was cut in half with every new thread up to about 6 threads. The interpreter performance for any language is going to

And yet I can imagine someone allowing others to use public beaches without first having their own private beach next to their mansion. How much do you help yourself before you have enough? It seems like many don't know when to stop.
