Half my contacts are always away, and have been for years. I think what you want should be a setting in my machine (whether phone or computer): silence all notifications when I don’t want to be interrupted (I use iOS “Do Not Disturb” all th

Sadly? Not for me. Here is one big reason I prefer services like WhatsApp (I don’t actually use WhatsApp itself): I do not want the presence reporting. I want to send a message to people and they read and respond whenever they want. I wan

I decide who is intended to use my scripts, thank you. I have many scripts where I am the only user. Also, the issue of having an alias changing behavior without warning on my command line still exists.

> Yes. Otherwise command line scripts will start doing horrible things. It was never intended that you can alias builtins, the only reason you might think you can is because it is allowed in mercurial which I think is a horrible idea.

It's never been required, as far as I know. AdMob and several others existed and were in use before iAd.

Yes, you both did. To a user losing / is just as bad as losing ~, because ~ is all she cares about, not her OS settings, hence why I think the idea that running as root is worse than running as an unprivileged user is silly in this conte

I always thought this concept to be silly unless you are a sysadmin. For most people who are not sysadmins losing ~ is much worse than losing /. Go ahead and wipe my OS, I just care for my photos to be safe.

Can't read the article right now, but for contacts and calendars we have standard public APIs: CardDAV and CalDAV. Too bad Google just discontinued the latter, weirdly enough just a few months after finally supporting the former.

On the other hand, I couldn’t help thinking, while watching the video, why should my terminal load web pages and images? I’ve done the same thing both in Linux and now on OS X, by using various 'open' commands or – on OS X – 'qlmanage -p',

No, it means that you need to know algebra to be able to think about calculus, not merely having access to an algebra book. Everyone can have access to algebra information, that doesn't mean everyone can solve calculus, as proved by reali

Where did I mention Glass? The OP said that having easy access to information allows him to "be human" and think. I'm arguing that is not nearly enough.

It means that even with easy access to all the necessay information you can't build a rocket if you don't know how to do it. You can learn how to do it, but that just means transferring the information from the outside into your brain. Yo

The table is inaccurate on that: GCC is listed as full support, but it doesn't implement at least the same feature clang is missing (floating point pragmas), which is the only C99 missing feature in clang, as far as I know, so I don't under
