No, there are clearly real problems with market based economies and issues of social responsibility. Selling plastic block toys, for which there are cheap enough alternatives, doesn't really seem to fit in this picture though.

Why? Edit: Another question gets downvoted. Hacker News really hates when people ask questions. You can go through my recent comment history and see where other questions[1] I ask get downvoted too. Whatever you do, don't ask people on

What's a word where that is a problem? In coding it would be a problem, but I don't use sans-serif flexible width fonts when writing code. Edit: asking a question == downvote. I never said it wasn't a problem. Spending more t

I'm not a font specialists, but those I's seem to have serifs [1], and mixing serif with non-serif kind of irks me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I#Forms_and_variants

Oh I see, missed that, thanks. Well, I'm splitting hairs here, but "runs on" and "this partnership extends to support for Apple CarPlay" is not really the same thing.

by leobelle 13y ago
More specifically, the title says "runs on", the body of the post says "may actually run" and the only evidence given is that Apple listed somewhere on the QNX website.

If you wrote more, probably online somewhere, about bitcoin and the like, I would probably read it because you seem smart and stuff. I really mean it. I hadn't considered the fact you can't loan out bitcoins the way you can regula

What a weird comment at the end about ending his relationship with his wife, even if it is in a hypothetical context. He could have stated that differently and not ended on such a dreadful tone.

I run the Amazon App Store and Humble Bundle on my Galaxy S4, both of which are APK files I side installed and I have many apps from both installed. I don't think I'm a minority in that regard, since these are businesses. As such

Yes I understand, but I wouldn't want that in a chrome extension personally. It could make styling harder. When you nuke rules without considering specificity it can cause unintended consequences. If everything just followed regular CS

The problem with Stylish is the same problem with every other chrome extension. It can access all your data on all websites. It can surreptitiously autoupdate. I wouldn't want a person I knew to look over my shoulder while typing in my

That would break how CSS works. I don't like it.

! isn't as simple as that. CSS is cascading. If there are conflicting ! then rule specificity would be taken into account. If the rules have similar specificity the last one evaluated wins. I imagine user extensions are loaded at the e

It's trivial to write your own stylesheet. Create a directory, put a manifest.json with a content_scripts and a css attribute plus a matching attribute and then your css file. Like this: https://gist.github.com/anonymou

That's iTunes, not iOS. You can be fine with iOS and a kindle and a PC if you used Amazon's content for example.
