Most people will just click yes or no to get past this screen. Better to ask "What iPad device are you using?" With options (with pictures?) of "iPad Mini" and "iPad 1/2/3"

I didn't downvote because I disagreed (or agreed), but because your question seemed very accusatory and asked in bad faith, so it does not contribute to the discussion. A reworded question that made it clear you were honestly inquiring stil

From the blog post and main screen, I have no idea what this service is selling. Is it promising to aggregate blogs/tweets/FB posts of a certain topic and deliver them to you on a weekly basis? Is it promising to prompt you weekly along the

"Local" google voice numbers aren't local enough for these systems. At least not for my last apartment's.

I first saw the term middlebrow in that thread, and I'm still not sure how i feel about the term, but "lowbrow" refers to completely non-intellectual things, and would not appeal at all to someone that values intellectual thinking. I hadn't

What's strange is that the study reveals exactly these different use cases for bookmarks, but doesn't propose a real solution. I currently have well over 100 things in Pocket, and even more in Pinboard, and many different tab groups open in

Because it doesn't add anything to the conversation for someone to point out that their confirmation bias was shown to be wrong.

To address questions 2-4, it's a space-filling curve [1], or basically an easy way to take a line and fill a 2D space. So when a single name is added to a namespace at the beginning of the curve, that blob gets bigger, and every other blob

Oh, you mean the astronomically higher incarceration rates of blacks? The ridiculous voter ID laws being introduced across the country? The increased likelihood of being subject to a 'stop and frisk' despite the decreased likelihood of find

I think ardent feminists are focused on making realistic changes to reality, i.e. working with the reality that we have a great diversity of sexual identities, gender identities, and gender roles, rather than try to fight against it. Fair t

I'm struggling with the idea that you don't think these recent examples are 'actual' racism/sexism. I'd like to think that you're characterizing the people who see the situation as 'risk free' but the more I read your comment, the more I th

To be sure, this is not a good outcome, but improper orbit insertion is a serious risk on every rocket launch, whether or not it's SpaceX and whether or not you're the primary payload. I'm glad to see that all parties involved realized this

If you feel that you are qualified to say it is a very concerning component failure based on the scant evidence available, then that's up to you.

First of all, this launch was not a failure, full stop. I don't know what your background in statistics is, but I'm impressed that you're able to deduce the details of a such a complicated, stochastic process, from only 8 observations, and

I doubt that. If a software startup designed and built a distributed system that would automatically detect and recover from hardware faults (see: every 'design for failure' post ever), would you say that the hardware faults were due to ine

No, it's just for easier data retrieval with e.g. selfstats.py. It has a -T option that filters by window title, if I understand the docs correctly.

Hmm...does that mean that dating sites might be able to improve the user experience of 'fit' users by banning/hellbanning the 'unfit' users? Maybe that's what OKCupid is doing with the whole "Congrats! You're attractive" feature.

No, according to this theory, it is because Deep Blue has a completely alien mind, and of the nigh-impossible to count ways in which that alien mind could work, it behaved in one of the many ways that Kasparov failed to consider. Now, it

Am I not seeing them, or are there no links to TeenageEngineering.com in the piece, or links to the actual announcement, or to where the CAD files can be downloaded? Very poor journalism, IMO. The linked Shapeways blog post has all of tho

The point was not that intent doesn't matter. The point was that intent is not enough when your language (verbal and physical) do not properly convey it.

Was going to post this, since it goes into more detail about each app, and limits itself to apps that follow the Holo guidelines, rather than just 'beautiful' ones (for those that want a more 'consistent' experience). I'm now subscribed to

Not a single female? There are 3 in the still picture of the video before you hit play. None wearing veils, even, and one in bright yellow, so I'm not sure how you missed them unless you were trying to.

When I read this post all I saw were pet theories, sweeping generalizations and assertions with zero supporting evidence, and anecdotes. Not what I expected to be in the top comment slot of a post that advocates "Go tot [sic] he source. [..

Not sure what braiding entails, but according to TFA, they would not have used zip ties. And if by braiding you mean twisted, shielded pairs, then I'm sure they used that.

My guess is that they have cables on the outside _and_ inside, and putting yet another cover over the outside cables would mean more mass. As-is, they only have to worry about wind and sand, so extra metal shielding is probably not necessar
