Can't believe you're siding with IE over Netscape.

You're assuming that the values of the culture you're living in are necessarily better or more ethical than those held by an individual. But even assuming that is true, the inabili…

Stainless is nice, it only loses on thermal mass and non-stickness. But if what you want is food, not perfection, it doesn't narrow your options much, and is much easier to maintai…

For whoever this is news to, check out this XinhuaNet[0] article on holding group administrators accountable for things said in their groups. That they're able to view things is im…

Yeah, but Didi has Jean Liu, daughter of Liu Chuanzhi who is founder of Lenovo. She helped Didi raise the largest fundraising round in history.

I didn't say how much leverage he had. Though whatever privacy focused technology they manage to get away with under the watchful eye of the party is still a win on the freedoms fr…

Subdivision like that usually happens when you go from a less complex organic system to something more engineered. Compare this to just running programs, to having 27 different VMs…

I could see your bosses workflow working as long as he has a library of common elements. For graphs I tend to use yED, which is nice. You know how LaTeX has the mantra that you inp…

I think trophies for trying shows that the self-esteem movement didn't go far enough. Take a company with a completely and utterly broken sales process. Landing page copy is abject…

But isnt that also interesting? They either fail to do B the A way, or they realize what things from A are applicable to B. In the latter case, we may all benefit from this cross p…

Which is why pointing out others breaches of etiquette is also a breach of etiquette.
