Would you get mad if your "Medical Doctor" wasn't? Or your "Lawyer" wasn't qualified? Or perhaps the "Engineer" who designed the trusses holding up the stadium where you see a ball game was just an unqualified amateur?

It is. I've been reading it during my commute (it's ok - it's by train!) for the last week.

April 24. If it was relevant, any strategic maneuvering that one might do to avoid this catastrophe is probably now deep in the past.

The tone and word choice of this posting will probably alienate more people than it attracts. "Rockstar" might have been appropriate 10 years ago, but the bubble burst, and nobody buys into that anymore. In most worthwhile enterprises, the

So you need to use something that you don't find useful anymore. I'm sure (well, maybe I'm not) you can understand our confusion...

Since we don't have access to our data, and since it took them a very long time to do this, I'd guess that the reasons are more subtle than we could practically guess. It probably increases their profitability per page by some tiny fractio

I think that you're jumping to conclusions about why it was pulled, in the midst of your post asking why it was pulled.

It's inevitable. The theory is that the algorithmic protection and a little bit of oversight can remove the irrelevant stuff. If someone wants to pay to submit relevant stuff, then I don't see a problem.

So, awesome customer service is the goal. And awesome is defined as not 14 days, but 30 days. Wouldn't it be even more awesome at 90 or 365 or 1000? These organizations have to draw the line somewhere. You've drawn yours quite forcefully

Do you have any examples of Dreamhost's competitors offering > 14 day retention of data for cancelled accounts?

Do you think that Dreamhost should be expected to hold data longer because there's a chance that some parties might have poor termination procedures and long stretches where they don't check their site or their emails? Most of the other hos

There's an assumption that the articles that he's having written are of low quality. It's possible that they might not be, and might be informative enough for users to find out what they might be looking for.

Nobody said it was a technical requirement. Just that they were "limited". The net result is that netbook manufacturers are selling machines that don't live up to the capabilities of the hardware or the OSes. There are ways around them,

They CAN support that much RAM. Negotiations with and contractual obligations to Microsoft make sure that they don't.

Indeed, but the versions of XP and Linux that you get from netbook vendors ARE limited to 1 GB.

The Dell is sold with a maximum of 1gb of RAM, but it can be upgraded to 2 gigs for OSes that aren't limited during compilation to only deal with 1gig (hint: OSX). I know this is true, because I spent thirty bucks and upgraded mine today.

The newsworthiness of this seems a bit of a stretch. Should we preserve the store who sold Bill Gates his first keyboard? Where did google's founders get their ideas? Was it in a pizzeria? A bus station? Should we mourn their loss, if
