If one company does something wrong it does not excuse other companies from doing the same thing wrong.

I felt the parent and grandparents were being condescending. I have no regrets.

> in my experience Christians are much happier Maybe because when they do something wrong, they believe an imaginary being will forgive and still love them; or if they encounter di…

I didn't know it did multiple pages. That's a great feature.

Do you know if compile-to-JVM languages can be used for Android (both technically and realistically)?

Although I ended up reading the 'curl'ed version, I wanted to say this is also a decent solution. Cheers

I'm ashamed I didn't think of this :) Thanks, it worked exactly as expected.

If only :/ I don't even have an FPU.

There's a big difference in turning a page the size of your hand when you are already holding the book and trying to click a micro button the size of a word when you use the arrow …

It looks like an interesting article, so it is a shame that it was split into 5 pages with no way to view everything on one page. I have no recourse but to not read the article at …

Incorrect. He imposed responsibility on the passengers next to her. > "I want to know who the the passengers were sitting next to this child were that didn't help her with her tran…

Nobody is responsible for other people's children. Not making sure an unaccompanied minor gets to her next flight is not "lack of human decency".

Closed to anyone who doesn't want to identify themselves.

I don't think you are morally correct just because you haven't gotten any complaints. In fact, until you make it possible for people to permanently delete things, you are not. The …

I guess that's fair, but since it seems like that's how it got gamed, they should definitely be more strict and send only to your primary or backup number.

Then why are you not using POP or IMAP with a separate password? What are they going to do with the auth code when they don't have your original password? I'm not trying to defend …

You should be using POP or IMAP only on your phone so that you can revoke permission after it is stolen (when you log in to your account from a desktop and use a backup key from th…

I agree with you totally, of course; I was just joking that they won't let you read anything and that is what prompted the initial outrage.

I'm sure they'd love to, but it's been ruled that jailbreaking is legal (to run your own or free software).

I think the craziest part is actually that declaring bankruptcy doesn't cancel student loan debt, so there's no failsafe if you don't get a decent job afterwards.

That's not really necessary, after you delete your account they'll block you from reading by themselves.

"[D]umbest blog post I've read in a while" isn't very constructive, but it's not an attack on the entire blog either, just on that particular post.

I've been thinking about this, and I believe there is a distinction since on the bus I am paying for the conveyance, not the content, so at no point do I ever consciously look at t…

I would be willing to either pay more for something completely ad-free or not pay at all. I probably would not pay considerably more. How much extra does a magazine get from advert…

I find it unacceptable to have any advertisement mingling with content that I have paid for. I stopped reading magazines long ago (before the internet was a real alternative) for t…
