iTunes revenue stream. Ha. Playing mere music files is simple enough. I think mobile Safari can handle that.

That’s not the point. If you patent it, you make that process public. That’s the intention behind patents. They were supposed to give inventors an incentive to publish how their in…

No, it did not. Falcon 9 (the rocket) was – more specifically, the second stage – Dragon (the spaceship) was not. That’s not exactly rocket science but people still get it wrong al…

What alternative is there for these companies? Windows? Short of shooting for the moon (i.e. developing their own OS) I don't see any alternative.

Cute how you think feminism doesn’t have a problem with fixed gender roles (i.e. cutting hair is a woman’s job). Also note that many typical women’s jobs are low paying and low sta…

Conventions. How do they work? There is no one right way of doing this. I just went to my magazine shelf and grabbed as many different magazines as I could. Der Spiegel(1) (Germany…

I think the incentives are pretty clear: fame, status and the ability to do something with your life (instead of being stuck on Earth). Oh, and we are talking about a hypothetical …

Chicken, egg. Someone has to start.

That should make it easier, right? No matter what, a divorce will never leave him not incredibly rich. He might care about something that’s not mere property (like always keeping c…

Can you hear that sound? It’s the sound of my eyes rolling. So, uhm, I’m not exactly sure what you want. Why are you so convinced that this updated design will also fail?

But they are aware of the problem and trying to fix it. The strain relief of this year's iPad cable tripled in length compared to last year.

The last time, SpaceX had the sexier camera angles (including on-board cameras), so I would say everyone should watch their stream.

Get off your blinders is all I can say.

Ah, ok, now the picture is becoming a lot clearer. Thanks for the clarification!

Nice victim blaming.

I don’t understand what you mean. I’m even more confused now. How many different 5by5 apps are there?

Can someone please explain the whole story from the start? I do not understand anything. 5by5 has an app, only recently released. Why would there be another one? Is the app 5by5 ha…

Take a look at the Cinema Display. Thunderbolt is Apple’s docking station replacement. That’s its purpose and it’s awesome. They are pushing Thunderbolt because it’s a perfect solu…

What? No. Intel doesn't support USB3 yet. USB3 devices aren't even yet widespread. Since space is at a premium in the Airs, Apple obviously doesn't add an extra USB3 chip in them j…

That’s not really what I meant. Most people do not know what algorithms are in the first place. That’s what you have to teach. You would tell them that some of the most common task…

This is a pervasive problem, one of the prime examples of why knowing the basics about algorithms and programming is a great skill to have. Many people do not think about whether t…

What’s the difference? I can’t see one.

What’s the difference? One is just a more abstract definition of the other.

You should feel responsible. You should be willing to learn something. I certainly do.

What’s the perspective, though? Mass protests (ala OWS) were never really a focus of the Pirate Party. They were always about direct political participation (i.e. competing in elec…
