Personally my laptop needs to run two browsers an ide and a couple of other programs - as well as a local instance of what I'm working on. This leaves ram+cpu for 0.5 electron apps one runs but now my system is a slug... So I'll n

They do get a dime. When I buy a new hardcover book I remember that the book will have a resale value and account for that in what I am prepared to pay.

Is this sarcastic? Borrowing millions of dollars at 20-30% to compete with some cash rich companies who already dominate the market seems crazy - (borrowing at 5% could be another matter).

I guess if there was an opportunity that had to be taken now you might consider it - but spend some serious time modelling the risk. 30% is too high for week to week cash flow issues though I agree.

Actually the uk is one of the only counties in the world that has no protection against retrospective legislation - and has implemented retrospective legislation in recent history. Having said this ignoring this vote would be very foolish.

You are aware that these petitions are just that - petitions. Anyone can start one about anything. They have no constitutional meaning and can be totally ignored (and usually are).

No the uk has no direct democracy. Parliament is sovereign not the electorate. Indeed before any referendum the uk parliament has to pass specific legislation binding itself to the result+. These petitions are a relatively new thing and hav

Some sort of super private browsing mode would be nice. I'm not sure I trust Mozilla to get that right though. Their main priority is pushing the Web forward (and keeping up with chrome). Privacy is difficult and conflicts with functio

The (incorrect) concept of the world consisting of good and bad guys whilst dangerous and leading to flawed reasoning about society (of which this post is an excellent example) is fascinating. I'd be really interested in how it became

I think the point is that the law should be refined so that if they ask you for something they should make it clear what you are legally required to handover and what they are asking nicely for. Then punish officiors or departments that mis
