If you come in as a MAVNI, you are probably not going to get to do a job using your home language, at least for a long time. It is not easy to get a security clearance as a Chinese or Russian immigrant. I met people who wanted to work as a

I doubt that. Github is a paid service and has several enterprise level clients. If it's ever going to flip flop, there will be quite a few warnings before hand.

They already ignore the fossil record as evidence of human evolution, which is accepted by an overwhelming majority of the scientific community as completely valid. I think any amount of evidence will have no effect on them.

Do not get discouraged. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia! Math education is not the goal of an encyclopedia. Other sources in this thread will help.

Many of the pages on w3c.org's own site do not validate completely. The front page validates as XHTML strict, but the other pages linked to from it have errors and are supposed to be HTML5 according to the doctype.

YC doesn't even have a <!doctype> declaration. It's obvious to me that the authors know the browser is going to run in quirks mode and don't care. It obviously works.

As others have pointed out, it's competition. This is why when you choose technology for a long term project you should consider whether it's still going to be around in 5 years, if not you might inadvertently become the maintaine

I think Manning's leaks are a better example of a data breach that would have adversely affected troops in combat now. However any data on what damage they did is certainly not public, if it's even measurable. As for being picky a

My point is that it was a misleading title. It should not have blanketed "arabica" when it's only one specific kind of arabica, in a specific region.

People should do what is right whether it is legal or not. No one here said whether he was breaking the law. If he's gonna participate here then he should live up to the moral standard of HN. Not the laws of some country.
