Way to project, not sure how you extrapolated all that from my comment. My point is that when a bottom line is involved, you will see only a few options come to dominance once the …

Can someone explain the downvotes?

And all those were done in the absence of capitalism, so they're not apt comparisons.

I hate to break it to HN, but we are not the norm. We're here because we long for more, and have the skills to make that yearning reality. So while every anecdote in the comments i…

It's easier to write, test, debug, and maintain. I have apps now that a few dozen files, all <= 100loc replacing systems where the number of files is many more and the file sizes w…

If a secure server is compromised, then none of this matters. You have to trust someone at some point.

Um, no, she's an idiot, and you're justifying it her stupidity.

This has nothing to do with being vocal about security. Yea, they're helping the technical cause, but if you don't want backdoors in everything, the CEO's need to talk to the publi…

Literally, it means testicles, but more colloclially it means bullshit in every English speaking country I know of. edit: Apparently not. Just messaged my American buddy, and he th…

It was very divided 4-5 years ago, predominantly when underscore and jQuery were both champing at the bit to be the top utility library. It's shifted towards not monkey patching, b…

For the language, first read Apples Language Guide & Reference. It's free. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Swift/... I would recommend the iTunesU - Stanford …

An ad eyeball is an ad eyeball. I'd need to see some very solid metrics showing that eyeballs on old pages aren't as good as new.

I obviously misread your comment. My bad. Not a good day for commenting for me.

Ah, I made the assumption that a vegetable oil based plastic would at worst break down or go rancid. And tiny bits of rancid oil wouldn't be harmful. However, if they're using othe…

I don't see the issue even if the plastics are invisibly dispersed in the wild. I use styrofoam in my potting soils, for a reason.

This is probably illegal (garnishing for mistakes), so check with you local labour laws before doing this. Though I would recommend against this unless you want employees quitting …

They don't, and this is the problem. They aren't talking designer.

He said plausible.

Low self esteem I'm guessing.

Hey, that's great, I hadn't done a deep look for a while. Regardless, my point was more with using it as your only source of protein, which none of these address.

Some soy is fine, but if we're talking as completely replacing your meat, it could be too much estrogen like compounds. Hence breasts in men and an increased risk of breast cancer …
