Wow, not sure what to think of this. Seems like this merely grows the monster that is the C++ specification, yet at the same time I wouldn't mind wiping out all that boilerplate.

Well if they remove the 140 character limit I'll start using Twitter again. Looks like they're breaking even.

This is the biggest letdown of Flash being discontinued. How can an artist distribute interactives as a single file now? How can a gallery site host user-uploaded interactive animations without allowing its users a platform to inject arbitr

Actually in this case the analogy is completely correct. The notion that government borrowing is wildly different from household or corporate borrowing is only true in a limited sense, and only if we are talking about borrowing in a currenc

It's light, fun entertaining reading. I enjoyed listening to the author's voice, cracked up at a few jokes, learned a few facts as I went.

1. There is always the possibility to reimplement legislation if problems arise. 2. Price discrimination can increase consumer surplus. 3. Increasing revenue from other businesses can allow ISPs to compete on price for consumers. 4. Most o

To the parenthetical part of your post: I thought Wayland and NVidia sorted out their differences several months ago and agreed to write a new protocol that addressed the valid concerns of both parties.

What's with the ad-hominem? At least in the healthcare market, There are good reasons to believe that the massive government intervention is a bad use of resources. People on Medicaid claim to value the services at only 1/5 of the

Oh of course. Next time when we implement socialism, nobody at all will be interested in concentrating power and abusing it for personal benefit. How silly of me to think that might happen for the hundred and first time after a hundred time

Overall you make a good point. In the context of this article, I tend to think the OP comment has thought about it harder than the author. These articles like "Down with capitalism, didn't you hear 51% of millennials don't l

Backtesting is a poor substitute for experimentation. We can't run back history and check what happens if the Bush tax cuts never happened. We certainly can't create a thousand parallel economies, implement the tax cuts in half th

Honestly this seems like the best we could hope for, not just from Facebook, but from any company. It seems honest and forthcoming. The conversations we're starting will be going for decades. This page clearly recognizes this. Anyone w
