I disagree, whereas it is well-known that sections of the media has a bias which colours it's coverage, it is never explicitly declared and it also tends towards the dogmatic. I would be interested to see an example where this isn&#x27

I always admire The Economist's willingness to have political ideals, be explicit and unapologetic about them and to be pragmatic about them. It's an attitude that should be standard in the media.

Would a reduction of 70%, like it cites for one of the failures of the treatment, cause the patient's condition to improve a bit, or would it be effectively the same?

The British system is an interesting twist on it, government loans pay for the majority of people to go to university, then the loans are subject to interest at the rate of inflation, and are repaid at 9% of your pre-tax earnings over £1500

If your MVP requires you spending 6 man years building a framework, that's not an MVP. An MVP doesn't need autoscaling, or most of the rest of the stuff you mention. I always remember 37signals launching an app without writing a billing sys

This was a fascinating article, astonishing that companies can get away with this level of corruption still. I struggle to believe that Walmart don't do this in other markets, especially other developing economies. People who are fans of th

Personally, I would imagine that it would take more time to set up and maintain than saving $50 would be worth to me. Free is only really free if you don't value your time.

I feel quite certain that Elon Musk will be remembered as our generation's greatest entrepreneur. Even if this idea doesn't succeed, the scale of his ambition is breathtaking.

I think the point isn't really that he's charging by the week, it's that he's selling the value he provides to the company, rather than strictly selling his time.

I suggest that you're probably on the wrong website if you can't understand why someone would want to listen to a talk about Vim or at least be tolerant of people who do?

I'm always confused about people who complain about battery life not lasting over a day. How often are you not near a source of electricity at least once a day? That being said, my Nexus S tends to run out after about 10 hours now, which is

I like it. Some other ideas: * some sort of key file access * public password to share contents with delete controls. What's the storage limit?

It would also be nice if they was a mechanism to change the password on the drive.

It would be great if there was a page explaining what it does, or if you could post on here. I'm assuming it's like a browser based Dropbox, which anyone can access if they have the path and key right?

You're correct, I assumed it was the wallet that held the coins, not the individual addresses.
