Its only if you don't take the time to think about it for a minute. After thinking about it, I may become more reasonable. Especially in food, too cheap prices are not a good idea, because they will cause all kinds of problems, especially w

Since Marissa left UX, G's frontend becomes worse every day. I especially hate these "fixed bars" that pollute my small netbook screen and that unfortunately are so hip nowadays, like flash intros were ten years ago, or the rainbow <hr&

Don't worry, I do know a "tiny bit" after living many years in China. Btw, how do you know that the Epoch Times started the whole rumor? According to the article it came from Weibo. The intention of the article is probably not so much to sp

You forgot 3.b) Somebody else posted links to show that these photos where not from a few nights ago, but from 2 years ago. "Bad journalism"? It is what it says it is: reporting of a major rumor that goes around Weibo. How is that not news

Looks good. I'd use named regex matches for the routes (like in Django) to make routes more flexible, ie. !/path/(?P<id>[0-9]{1,5}_(?P<kw>[a-z0-9_]{5,20})! etc.

So there is a police guy who doesn't know how to do his job meeting a judge who doesn't know how to do his job, and all on a case that gets world wide, front page press coverage. Talk about bad luck.

For years those penalties have often been mentioned on SEO forums. This is nothing new but just another filter they will add. Or maybe its just a little FUD to keep people nervous?

Good point. But most of these apps are written, because they can make money for the author. There just isn't a large enough user base in Desktop Linux to make that money, and hence much less people willing to invest the time to write apps.
