This is absolutely the best one. It is easy to understand the relationship between the various repositories. Bookmarked.

If only the following can be applied to patent trolls. Righthaven has continued to assert that it is entitled to a presumption of harm to its market for the work, which makes no sense given that it is contractually prohibited from

If Tweetdeck is mostly contractors, I hope we don't see another HuffPost syndrome where people walk off because they saw things as being unfair.

This reminds me of various people who talk about the sense when they are "Buddhas", then there is a sense that all people around them are "Buddhas". A lot of beliefs in mysticism comes from hacking the brain through learning to change one's

There'll be no more cheap second books to purchase if e-books go mainstream. For example, secondhand Dale Carnegie for $2.00 is a steal.

Agreed. This report sounds like a (much needed) 5.1 rather than a major leap. I wonder if the community will ever accept anything more radical than this in the future. Does Scheme need anything else standardized?

This comes across as odd. I remember the brouhaha over R6, and many people weren't happy over it. I thought most people have got over it and adopted it. So why is R7 built on top of R5? None of the names on the report are known to me. Is th

I understand now. It is a very good looking site. I am a bit lost because there is not a great deal of visual cues to what I'm supposed to do. (My screen resolution is 1600x900) and the comment bubble didn't cue me in. I've added a comment

I felt the way you have put the comment in various shades better. The algorithm already sorts out what comments should float to the top. If people feel an answer is incorrectly placed, they can vote on it to fix it. Point scoring: yes, it i

Quora got this right. The identities of those who endorse a comment is significant. There may be people who voted on the coffeescript comment who may not have direct experience on it. There is no way one can tell. Further, there may be dif

The assertion was about the chemical pathways. i.e. same enzymes, same intermediate products, same end products. But you are right. The physiological effects are generally identical, not exactly identical.

Perhaps the Flip acquisition was a tilt at being a new consumer brand, but it never got enough traction to warrant further attention for something the size of Cisco. Or it never got enough management love to grow to what it could have been.

This is classic price anchoring at work. For years people would be very happy to produce work and get (somewhat) paid for it because it is about writing something they are passionate for. Then, this gets disrupted because the owner gets a b

Compare this to Atlas http://www.2sidesdesignstudio.com/2009/11/atlas-overview-xco... Maqetta needs to do some design upfront if they are going to garner any excitement.

You made me think again. Thanks. There are a few ways Amazon can go with this: 1. They have a non-legal but persuasive claim that the unit was subsidized and the sale of the unit might include shrink wrap rules against tampering against the

I see this as a purely defensive stance should they want to enable in-app purchases in the future. As Apple has discovered, they get accused of being greedy when they force developers to go through the app store for In-App purchases. Perhap

pg, First up, this is nice. The absence of comment scores throw people around a bit, and people are generally more careful since it is difficult to directly receive feedback. Secondly, the madness associated with karma is gone. Can you im

It's probably an experiment in reputation. There was time when people would try to optimize their site's PageRank. The moment you start measuring things, magical emergent behaviors are created.

Wait, the policy has been in place for 6 years and parents have recently voiced outrage? I wouldn't take this report at face value. Maybe some parents do not like the principal and is looking for cause to ruffle a few things up. A 6 year-ol

I think pg's idea of a hacker is not a person who only hacks code, but it is more like "Venture hacks", "marketing hacks". To hack is a) the process of grokking through hacking b) the process/mindset of circumventing apparent barriers in fr

No. The loser may be asked to pay for the legal costs of the winning party. This is not a good strategy for most people, even for Hill (I suspect). Hill's attorney had two things in mind: 1. If Hill won, it'd have been very bad for RightHav

David, I was coming to the same conclusions as well. One downside is that to the new user, the articles appearing would be what is considered interesting by the "average" user. One way to counteract this is to have the new user match, say,

I like the way this discussion is going. It is strange how karma could encourage people to act in a counter productive way. 1. How about not displaying the karma of new users for the first year? 2. The second insight is multiple postings fr
