1) The fonts look a little awkward and hard to read on firefox (the red ones). 2) Some of the prices seem to be wrong (for example search for 'hal spacejock' which shows a price of Rs.567 while the target page shows around Rs.1400) - this m

Is it possible to do projects like glowing bacteria and stuff like that with this kit ? (if that sounded like a noob question, that's because I'm one :) )

Looks like they ran out of well known constants. I'm sad google lost this round.

The supporters argue that all these measures are required to preserve "our way of life". The hard truth is that, it is already lost - unless constantly living in fear counts.

The new theme looks good but the boundaries between the elements doesn't seem well defined, giving a floating appearance to them. Also the background is kind of glary.

They should have gone ahead with a much smaller launch and based on the response go ahead with a single world wide launch (with at the maximum one month between the two). Right now it appears as if every blogger and his dog is up and runnin

I don't think this is accurate. I have seen download speeds of around 6/8MBps on windows micro instances. The lowest I got was around 3MBps. But I only tried with downloads of around 30MB files at the maximum.

They can't be compared to shell companies which in general are fully owned. You can probably compare them to advertising agencies.

I'm curious, how is Amazon selling things online different from software companies offering software and services online ? Does this law pave way in future to tax these kind of services too ? Or is it that software companies already pay a s

AFAIK, market capitalization has not much meaning for pre-ipo stock. Problem is that, IPO price isn't just the last price at which the stock was bought in secondary market. Also, there is no indication if what kind of stock was sold. If it

Even if people wont move in droves to this, its still easier to get started with this because of circles and privacy features. For example, previously our tight nit group of college friends used to engage using email threads. Now hopefully

I wonder if the developer who caused the bug got fired. As a developer, this is one of the few nightmares I get at night :) (making a small change and bringing every thing down)

On the other hand, that country might lose tax money - assuming that it encourages bitcoins internally. Of course, if the country is really poor they may not be collecting much tax income to start with.

Funny how the treatment varies across cultures. At least where I'm from, if some one is getting good grades/considered to be geeky, there will be a lot of "why can't you be more like him" comments from other parents.

The question is not whether Mozilla should cater to enterprise users. The question is should Mozilla cater to internal enterprise applications which don't get updated very often and are easy to break.

Aah looks like they are only counting addons installed properly from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ . So that rules out rude vendors.
