No browser is going to even look at the X-DuckDuckGo-Locale header. Edit: Crome doesn't do that for me.

You don't have to wait for Mavericks, it has already happened. Apps that are sold through the App Store can not make use of the the media keys on Apple keyboards, which is why VLC can use them and other apps can't. Edit: other tha

One more for kicks: n = iter(array).next [(n(), n(), n()) for _ in xrange(len(array) / 3)]

Haha. I feel very silly now. I was just about to respond with the same thing. while True: result = list(islice(iterator, 3)) if not result: break yield result

I was a bit wrong about that. For some reason I imagined that there would be quite a few args being passed to zip, when in fact there are just the three iterators. It does create a temporary list, but it's so small it's negligible

I'd be surprised if my way is slower. Any time you unpack into a function such as zip() python has to create an intermediary list to store all the results before calling the function.

It's not brilliant. This accomplishes the same thing without being hard to understand: from itertools import islice iterator = iter(array) try: while True: yield list(islice(iterator, 3)) except St

The difference is that bribery usually involves an upfront payment. Maybe people should start tipping before their meal.

That article is somewhat confusing. The issue isn't that Uber doesn't allow tips, it's that when a person does decide to tip , Uber takes 50% of it. Here is a much better writeup: http://www.theverge.com/2013

Given that it's not possible to set the default map app on IOS, I wonder how many of the people that "use Apple Maps weekly" did so by accident.

If this violates law, then surely ignoring robots.txt also violates the law. In this case website owners should be able to sue Cyveillance (Comcast outsourced copyright enforcement to them). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

Newsflash, large cities have luxury stores that sell fancy things for lots of money. You'll find all the the examples also exist in any other large city.

I'm curious why you feel that the extension of Muni is a waste of funds. As the project is to extend it from Caltrain station through Powell and then on to China Town, do you think the entire thing a waste, or just the latter portion?

Qualify what you mean by poorer service. Just because the service is different doesn't mean that it's worse. I'd take a waitress that was curt and left after I'd placed my order over one that asks me if I need anything e

Good point. I mistakenly thought that they were going to rewrite the email addresses in git commits, it appears that is not the case.
