Those look like numbers from Facebook's SEC filings, which says all there is to say about which metrics they're choosing to publish. (Read the post, didn't miss it.)

Hey, Facebook, wanna prove Princeton wrong? How about publishing actual metrics proving that user engagement is at an all-time high? (Oh, you don't have metrics to prove that? Is that because users are jumping ship?)

Well, yeah. In certain circles, the permissive licenses (MIT/BSD/etc.) are seen as detrimental to the free software movement.

Sure. Despite having qualms about its existence, I recognize Facebook as a somewhat useful utility, until a better option becomes widespread. The only way for me to use that utility in way that protects my privacy and anonymity is to have s

I have several Facebook identities. I use them sporadically when necessary, and only for specific needs. None of them are even closely related to my 'real' name.

Thanks for responding re: the crypto. But one question begs to be asked - Why isn't end-to-end encryption enabled by default? Why is not having end-to-end encryption an option at all?

That's a pretty rude and selfish way to approach a mailing list. I wouldn't be surprised if such a question goes on to be ignored.

You can read your Gmail over HTTPS, but Tor hidden services generally do not use SSL/TLS (since they _are_ the exit node for that connection).

I hoped they would fix line wrapping - which should be a relatively simply task - by now. This is a very needed feature for projects that work a lot with text files (such as markdown) that do not automatically break on set widths (e.g. [1])

True. It used to be the best auto-complete out there, and for some reason it has become just as bad as Chrome's.

For EOYear, will we get some more SDR love? A sequel to dump1090, perhaps? ;)

I don't agree. Do you understand how the credit card system works? Maybe you do, but billions of people do not, yet use it ubiquitously.

I accept that fact that some people like yourself find a product such as Soylent to be convenient, and I am in no position to criticize such personal choices. But there are lots of existing products on the market, that have been available f

Soylent might, technically, work. It might be safe and healthy, it definitely looks simple and allows you to forget anything related to grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning up afterwards. But thinking about the prospect of the future make

This is a good move towards real adoption of Python 3, and doesn't have as dire consequences as it seems. Distros that use Python 3 by default (such as Arch and Gentoo) still allow for Python 2 to work side-by-side with Python 3. Prope
