   I imagine the popularity of '10,000 steps a day' was mainly driven by how cheap/easy it was to measure steps. Nowadays with smart watches or dedicated fitness trackers it's finally becoming possible to come up with bette

   Generally the AV engine will be the same, but the management tools are more corporate-friendly (remote management and group policies, etc.)

   I'm not sure it's convention but it's common just due to matching the file extension.

   I know the ".rs" TLD is common to rust projects, but maybe add "for Rust" to the title?

   Other particularities I've noticed are the lack of Orange Chicken in Canada and the lack of Ginger Beef in the states (they don't know what they're missing).

   > So how is the future of this space not just "everybody licenses Google's platform"? Well I certainly can't see that situation going wrong at all. At this rate how long until Google re-brands itself as Omni Consumer

   Sorry, but no. Google deserves at least a portion of the blame here. By short-circuiting the DMCA process Google is removing the few protections the DMCA does afford the complainee. That's bullshit.

    I don't think it would be as simple as a high heating bill. A residential furnace is certainly not made to run 24/7. No big deal if you're at work but if you're out of town for a while...

    Maybe you could have a thermostat in parallel that's normally set to a minimum temperature? Thermostat -> furnace communication is pretty dead simple.

    Antibiotics aren't the only modern advance to combat infection. Consider also the tools and knowledge (proper wound cleaning and binding) that's been developed to prevent infections in the first place.

    The difference with snapchat is (as Justin notes) there's no central "stream" to worry about cluttering. If you have friend a that is prolific and friend b that only occasionally updates a's activity doesn't trample

    Daily Fantasy Sports is not like blackjack, because how well your fellow players do directly impacts your chances of winning.

    I think the model needs to be expanded to include the popular "maximum steal count" rule, that a gift can only be stolen, say, 2 times at which point it becomes "un-stealable". EDIT: d'oh, should've read the co
