   I guess for me it just feels like Reddit requires more effort than HN. I have an account on Reddit but I really am in read-only mode because it looks like I would have a lot of friction to any action.

   I'm pretty sure all the natives weren't killed as I talked to my father today which constitutes proof of the falsity of the statement.

   Being the 6th man on a pro Basketball team is a generally a better move than being a starting Football player. Bonus is that you will probably have a longer lifespan.

   That sounds right but the problem is how to associate the user with the token beyond something in your app. I just am not sure how I would go from a twitter support account to canceling the subscription.

   I read the docs, but I get the feeling we need someone to detail exactly what the store gives you for personal information. It seems like tokens but I'm probably missing something.

   Might want to know which user to put in the API call, and I'm pretty sure that would involve some lookup.

   That would almost require Apple to allow developers to have an actual direct relationship with the customers. As far as I can see, they are Apple's customers that you are just renting.

    Clearly your programming team needs this manager https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d70OfGfMtIA if you're thinking of releasing software that goes into "Destroy all humans!" mode.

    I still have my 3.3 discs and the 4.x discs with the wall of documentation. I'm tempted to install it again, if for nothing else to get at some very old e-mail I sent. I think some of the "dated" is that it wasn't very

    Not OP but also a NS developer (custom built Pentium), and I must say like the menu system, digital librarian, workspace manager, and eof much better. A separate interface builder was much better, but that's more a developer tool thin

    Oh, I partition too, but I do /, /usr, /var, /var/log, /home, /tmp, /opt (yeah, yeah, I know), and then anything server specific (mail, maybe www). I just don't do the /usr/local.

    I've never really had a separate /usr/local partition, but it looks like that might not be such a bad idea given the upgrade guide: https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade60.html

    What exactly is wrong with the current OpenBSD website? It looks fine on the desktop and its ok on the iPhone.

    I basically go with OpenBSD unless I need a big file system (then I go with FreeBSD) or one of the infernal vendors we have (often a government contractor for a grant) requires something else (Windows or Red Hat (yes, Red Hat specifically,

    So, I just have to wait 2 years to see what I wrote from a terminal on an IBM 370. I do wonder if any of it will make much sense this far out.

    I wonder about a variation of this for companies that would reduce the taxable revenue of companies by the amount spent on salary + benefits of citizens, but not by H1B.

    That seems to be the way things are going today for automated news. Google News is posting a headline directly from snopes.com if you search "North Dakota". The headline is racist in the extreme. I think some folks need to rethi

    I would think parking a commercial van on any old street might get some reactions. Plus, he's pretty much in the US, so there are many box stores that allow RVs along with quite a lot of rest areas.

    Something in the Coachmen Prism range is not that much more expensive and has a shower. You can find some interesting deals on them because people tended to buy and realize RVs aren't for them. I guess you could also buy an RV chassis
