I have the iPad 4th generation, often forgotten slight upgrade on iPad 3. Both have double the memory of iPad 2, which probably explains the app refresh difference. However, I had the iPad 1 too, and currently have iPhone 4S. Both seemed to

Lags? How exactly and what is serious work? I have the last non-Air iPad and it still Senna snappy to me. I'm normally pretty critical of UI performance.

I can understand the reasons and like the dots/G but the whole word looks childish to me. Liked the old one and its longevity as well.

I find this scary because the author seems to attribute negative failure of replication to incompetence in a way that he doesn't treat the original success, and essentially ends up rejecting all failed replications - how many good resu

The author explicitly states terseness is a goal, and compares alternatives' overhead to bash. However, he recognises there is a limit whilst remaining safe/close to Scala. I don't agree control structures are a major problem

The second article suggests GitHub has a similar problem and the first says that SourceForge has an opt-in policy. I can obviously understand people wanting to boycott SF but no-one is talking about avoiding GH downloads. Did I miss an elem

That isn't relevant. The company has owners, and owners get to decide what to do with their property. If they decide most of the success was due to external factors then they can change their compensation appropriately. Evidently they

The owners of the company? i.e. Shareholders. It's not anyone else's business. Workers are free to renegotiate their contract, resign, buy shares, or start their own company. Who else other than the owners should decide?

I've frequently been told that it's illegal but most European countries that I've lived in or visit don't act like it's illegal. Some places' worst bars even have signs up that suggest they will not help you if

Twice is very different than once, as I feel you are probably aware. Once with editing/skimming is normally pretty good and at least obvious where clarification is needed.

The "Check" buttons weren't enough of a hint for me and I jumped into "This is a numerical reasoning problem" mode. I'd argue that this kind of situational bias is as much a factor here as confirmation bias.

Several places/providers in Europe have allowed or do allow you to use your normal data plan for free whilst abroad. I got mine a couple of years ago, without even looking for that particular benefit.

Definitely not an expert but to me it looked like initial, unexpected explosion/break-up then a second which could have been in response to the first.

It's hard to say the austerity measures are to blame for their economic downturn. The Greek economy has by some measures continued on the path started by the financial crisis and by some measures improved (bank capitalisation, budget s

I've noticed Greek politicians making excessively bold, emotional statements in public since the election, where perhaps some pragmatism and diplomacy would have moved things along better. It gives the impression that there is some int

The article seems a little confusing/confused but not strictly incorrect. There is no statement that the full amount would be recalled. The value of ELA has effectively become the extensions - the newly-lent money is being withdrawn da

Several people are interpreting "stays the same" as good news for Greece and contrary to the article. I interpret it as the opposite: it will not expand further to meet the demand, thus Greek banks will run out of money. I didn&#x

I'm failing to understand the supposed nobility some people are commenting on. 99% of people don't understand or don't care anyway. Annoying and confusing those people is not noble. The people that do care will likely find th

The judge/jury/overall process seek the truth. I do not consider that the role of the prosecutor at all. I don't think legal philosophy aligns that way either?

I also prefer treating them as sentences and prickle at the level of enthusiasm for no dots. In the end consistency with others is more valuable though. However, the article is entirely unconvincing to me, despite being on his side - the re

I think a lot of the compromises are due to being pulled in different directions by market analysis. Some people want looser rules/more innovation but this drives up costs and the advantages of the big teams. Other people want everyone

I never experience that in Firefox and have much more than 40 tabs open. Granted if the tab is not actually loaded, then it will go off and load it. How does Chrome's model help here?

Most people want to watch their sports in their favourite environment. They're not going to report the pub and have that stop permanently.

That's what I would have thought but would mean the Sky rep in the link is flat-out lying. As mentioned below, it could help isolate groups of subscriptions and allow progressively tracking down individuals. He only claims that it&#x27

My experience of Africa (Mozambique) was that they have the phones but don't pay for anything because they have no money. Technically possible, sure, but most people only had credit for a limited amount of time (and would use it for se

I like your perspective and agree the 0.1% of glamorous tech startups do not define the whole word. I think though that more people lean towards a concept of risk-taking and innovation (me too). I guess my hypotheses are: a) HN will mostly

I suspect there is a correlation between welfare provision and protectionism around small businesses/anti-big business behaviour. This would lead to many more small businesses than the free market would support, but there is a bit of a
