I was under the impression that large tech companies shift devs to different projects often, but Apple does seem like it is already strained by its number of software products.

Pretty in-depth and interesting, especially for Mashable. Is this kind of content common for them? I just thought they were another clickbait machine.

Alright, how is this different from the other attempts at this type of server-based system? And how is this better than Tox, which is P2P?

The top twenty to thirty private universities in the US have extremely generous financial aid, and the public ones aren't super expensive depending on which school you go to.

I wonder why they would do this. In fact, I don't see the benefit of MIT over Apache except for compatibility with GPLv2. But I'm definitely not an expert, if someone would want to explain.

The gender gap is mostly due to different interests, but some of it does involve women feeling unsafe in certain industries (ask them, not me). The other thing is that the pay gap also involves different personal choices, but some of it inv

The gender gap in certain sectors is a problem, but this is also a problem. I have no doubt that strong feminists don't want to see boys (even white ones) doing worse as a whole from a young age.

Greasemonkey is unnecessary bloat, Facebook runs at a crawl as it is. This is broken design that could be mitigated with improved sharing functionality. Not that it could be ever eliminated, but these tools change functionality to offer bet

Have you never written something with some form of hyperbole? Isn't it implied that I'm trying to get a feature improvement? Isn't this a hacker community that wants better software and better uses for them?

I appreciate the snark, but I am a fan of evolution of communication, especially organic ones. My problem is when people choose to systemically waste webspace and my screenspace when I want to read comments and instead get a laundry list of

It seems I've had to edit my post. I don't have a problem with tagging. I think it's a waste of space on popular facebook pages where most of the comments are literally just names of people tagged. Tagging your friends in a

I was referring to public facebook pages, like musicians posting about their new albums or something. Sorry to not make that clear.

Stanford is really a great school, but I hope that isn't generally the determining factor here. Many other universities have great CS departments with strong entrepreneurial programs on the side. (MIT, Berkeley, Harvard, Columbia, etc)

Would it not be the observer effect instead?

I started my first year of college this semester at an Ivy. There are flaws, but overall the experience is pretty great, or at least, being around famous professors/thinkers is. I wish it could be extended to more people though. "

It may be a minority to prefer owning music, but it's not a small one. Most music enthusiasts I know prefer a personal collection, it adds sentimental value. Many also use a combination of Spotify and personal vinyl and desktop collect
