In reality there is no choice. If you choose case-sensitive you are basically fucked as there are loads of applications that will never run on your system. It is quite cynical of Apple really.

Well I guess if they implement arithmetic they will be fine, the average consumer can do without pivot tables and HLOOKUP. And judging from what they already built they should be able to manage that. I hope they don't teach the app to inter

Because eventually they will want to get rid of as many humans as they can in your caffe latte experience. Or more prosaicly so that you can order a snack from a snack machine too.

And you can use page caching in rails to do the same. The argument for using octopress is more that it enlarges the space of possible hosts.

True but if there was some department disabling people, we would look very differently at disabilities I guess.

No it is just a tiered pricing model. Either get 35% royalties and no delivery fee or get 70% and pay those very high fees. Almost all the things you include in the list apply to both pricing models.

You can actually choose to just be charged 65% in the first place.

This really needs to parse the calculator results as well. That would be so useful.

You could also expect them to die in a reasonable timeframe. Caring for someone for 6 months is a totally different thing from doing so for 6 years. It is a gift and a curse.

That is exactly why gitlaw is needed. No act should be able to be voted into existence without merging with origin/master first. At last a new job for the Library of Congress.

This is one of my favorite papers explaining possible problems with arbitrage. http://www.math.mcmaster.ca/~grasselli/ShleiferVishny97.pdf It is not directly applicable to HFT though.

By weight you are absolutely right but considering density it is a much closer call. A kilo of Ronaldo (assume 75kg) costs 1700k and takes about 1dm3. In this space you can fit 19.3 kg of gold worth 1016k. So impressively Ronaldo is worth

Really I didnt know that. I always thought they are crazy. But then I am a free lancer so I don't go interview.

That is funny because the proofs had the opposite effect on me. It dawned on me that the math of e.g walrasian price setting is surely correct but the story that this is supposedly how our economy works was much less believable after each s

Exactly. It is especially odd considering that not adding extra sugar to ones diet quickly makes lots of things taste sweet that one formerly hasn't thought of sweet. Fruit is now about as sweet to me as cake used to be and candy or cake I

My wife and I did the same and she lost 40 pounds in nine months. I happen to notice that our appetite grew smaller during the period possibly explaining the weight loss. I have good data on this because we eat pancakes every sunday. I alwa

Hey DDVTWAU (dont down vote this was actually useful) You need to allow people with interest outside HN some time to catch up on the hip new acronyms

Finance and law are the religion of our time. Those do called high powered people are not the galileos und copernicus of our time, they are the borgias or cardinal richelieu. In each case assuming they rise to the top.

Your point about luggage handling seems quite convincing. But i wonder how tall you are for setting your healthy lower weight limit at 110kg. I am 175cm at 70kg and I am not skinny. So allowing an extra cm per kilo you would have to be 210c

Actually holding on to cash is a serious issue at the size we are talking about. Over night the feds would be the biggest investor in everything. A small country can go set up a sovereign wealth fund but the US would probably just hold its

Do they add sugar to flour, milk and vegetables as well? I do think sugar is seriously bad for you but as ling as you can buy staples you can cook. You can cook, right?

In Austria people take Android smartphones for free with their contracts but outside of a hardcore geek circles I have never heard of anyone paying up front for one. They are simply cheap enough to be a substitute for featurephones. I know

If all this is true it is a complete failure of capitalism. Moving workers to a different office building is not that hard and if they were actually 3 times as ptoductive as the OP claims it would be easy to become rich really quick. Set up

They can very well keep ie6 for cruftmaster97(tm) but they could provide chrome or firefox to browse the 2012 internet. I know some people call their browser "the internets" but it is in fact just a regular application that you can install
