Someone is injecting a flash script into the background. Edit: You might want to change the page's title. Also, thanks for the game. I really enjoyed it.

Sure, Microsoft technically has the right to censor whatever they like, just like pg technically has the right to ban you from Hacker News for writing a comment he doesn't like. Both are disturbing examples of legally infringing on free

Yes, the death throes of the American media industry are a global problem. However, evidence is needed to prove that the global media industry is dying.

I'm not convinced this is a global issue. Here in Israel, many local TV shows are freely available on the internet, including the ever-popular Eretz Nehederet. Plenty of Israelis pirate content, but the local media industry seems to be do

I feel sick to my stomach. Companies shouldn't censor personal chats like this.

That is a detail needing cultural adjustment, but the concept is universal. For example, here in Israel most high-tech jobs include ZeroCater-esque food plans, so (without significant spending) buying food for your team would probably resul

Very cool, but the UI is a tad confusing. Perhaps make Pick to choose a little darker.

Personally, I love the __names__, as they instantly identify magic methods and there are never naming conflicts. Contrast this with Java where a newcomer might name their own method toString() or readObject() by accident.

Enforcing formatting is good policy, and pre-installing a common editor on all workstations is certainly advisable; but enforcing the personal use a certain editor is like forcing a writer to use the editor's favorite pen, no matter how unc

I aslo despise the social features. Who the hell wants to share search results with friends before even opening the result? For that matter, who I am going to share my emails with on Gmail? Get Google Plus out of my face.

On a related note, AppEngine has horrible, horrible, support for paying users. I learned the hard way not to use products without phone support.

He also led the all-male congressional hearings against contraception. I support most of his opinions, but I wish I could elect politicians with authority in specific fields only.

This. Large corporations are always going to attempt shitty legal maneuvers out of self interest. The real questions is whether the information revolution will succeed creating a more informed society, changing the way people vote and the w

Really? The world must unite to fight the possibly unethical enforcement of a sensible law in a country which has (for the most part, but with some exceptions outside of its jurisdiction) an excellent court system that has overturned simila

Because it's the UN, theater of the absurd, where Gaddafi was invited to speak about democracy, where every dictator has their day.

You will love evil, the latest, greatest, and most complete Vim emulation layer for Emacs. If you have heard of Vim-mode, viper, or vimpulse, this is the successor to all of them.

I agree with you, despite creating Politician Market to protest the issue. The real question is how we can increase public representation in politics and ensure that politicians are knowledgable about areas they propose legislation in. You
