   Well, that's a nice feature, but as you bring it up, deep linking isn't possible ;-) There are various techniques to enable it though, pushState(), hash fragments etc.

   It has already been said, but this is just a point release. If you keep your Debian system up to date (which you should) you'll only get a few new packages. See also https://wiki.debian.org/DebianReleases/PointRele

   I've seen some products just bounce back and forth a few cents. I notice this because they are in the non-checkout section of my shopping cart (not sure how it's called on .com). I always assumed those prices change mostly because

   You can review the domains, even automate parts of the review process.

    Would never use for fear of domain snatching. Yes, I've seen it happen.

    Wow. Yeah, if you pick arbitrary timespans from different charts you will find matches.

    This sounds like it could be useful for some people. Can somebody share use cases? I vaguely remember remember setting some CSV- or SVN-specific variables per different project.. but that was probably because I didn't bother to rtfm ba

    Is this a good thing? I've seen hosters go downhill after providing an excellent service initially and too much growth. Maybe somebody with more knowledge about digitalocean can comment on their architecture, scalability, etc. or provi

    I think this link http://telegraphy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/intro.html is far more informative than op's. I had no idea what telegraphy was after reading the posted link.

    If anonymity is a concern getting a court order doesn't sound like a big deal. Even if not, you vastly overestimate the anonymity an IP provides, and if anonymity is a concern legal deniability isn't a big win either. You also ign

    It's pretty easy to track coins through transactions and link them to an IP, unless the user knows about this and takes care to prevent it.

    Maybe encouraged by git's behavior of coloring "incorrect" whitespace.

    Aye, thanks. Shouldn't do math with a cold... Edit: It also always depends on what uptime really means. I have one hoster who regularly does "network maintenance" where their entire network goes down for several hours. This c

    Thanks, the article was indeed interesting, even though reliability is what interests me the most. The "99.99% uptime SLA" mentioned on digitalocean's website means up to 3.5 days of downtime per year unless I'm mistaken

    Indeed, my first thought was actually "let's see if there are any whitespace issues to fix".

    The article starts with "TL;DR: We believe...". I have to admit I stopped reading after the paragraph because I'm not really interested in what people believe, but evidence. It didn't help that it sounded like marketing-

    Seems like a nice idea, but where on that page is the link to the repository?

    Personally I think it's rather silly, or, if you prefer, funny. Anyway, seems like enough people flagged it as it disappeared from the front page after a few seconds.

    Hm, do you mean etanazir was asking about the USD? Then I might have misread the comment. Edit: Btw, the USD is mostly has value because it's being used (useful), so yes, that's what currencies have going for them. The USD just ha

    Um, no, his question was not "is bitcoin useful" but "does it have any intrinsic value"...

    Yes, it's intrinsically useful. See https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/FAQ#Where_does_the_value_of_Bitco... for a longer reply.
