   This thread makes me very sad and happy at the same time. So many of the comments show an ignorance I thought to be a thing of the past or at least taboo. But there seems to be just as many other commenters trying to help educate and enligh

   Who led you to believe that? Many American-Muslim women wear a hijab by choice and are very friendly/social people who would be glad to interact with others. There is a difference between culture and religion. A person who practices Islam i

   Getting way OT here but.... That reminds me of how my mom watches American Idol. She watches all of the contestants, and can't decide on who to vote for, so she votes for all of them....

   That's ridiculous! It just makes it harder for everyone to sift through the new page and find quality content to upvote.

   Why are spam accounts allowed to exists? If an account only submits articles from 1 domain, isn't it easy to tell it's a spam account and delete it? How many of these accounts exist?

   There is a link to the app on Google play, otherwise just import it as an android project and build it yourself I would guess.

    Thanks, yes I realized that if everyone started using this it would not be fun for dropbox, but from what I have just been testing it on I am pretty sure they have measures in place to limit the undo space. But in any case, it's not my brig

    Hey, I made this last night while procrastinating. It was just a little project to learn a bit about the Dropbox api.

    Has anyone used the Think Stats book? Is it a good intro to stats?

    This looks awesome, but I wish there were some built in graphs and charts for my usage, most visited tabs, etc. Otherwise, awesome stuff!

    Cool, I'll take a look that those. I didn't get around to seeing the computer history museum this summer, maybe another time. It sounds awesome!

    I spent a good portion of my internship last summer working with d3 at Splunk, just wanted to say thanks for the cool framework. I love the "data", "enter", and "exit" calls, it's a really great way of thinking about data binding. I'd like

    Actually, it might be just me, but I find this incredibly annoying. I use swift-text on android and while usually when I start typing my email address I get a suggestion for my long email address, but when type=email I don't get a suggestio

    Thanks, but I'd rather not root my device quite yet. You have a Nexus S on AT&T? Not 4g or anything? I called up Samsung customer service just now and they said no AT&T phones have the update yet. It's difficult to know who to blame

    I agree. Last November, when I bought a Nexus S on AT&T. They said ICS was coming in January. Then March. Then Jelly Bean came out in June and an upgrade was slated for July. Then "late August". I'm still running Ginger Bread I am tired

    I'm not giving up. There are a few things they totally missed here like the fact I have to give away all my data and that it's not platform based (I can't build on it). I would like to be able to ad-hoc query and visualize my social data on
