Every spy organization on the planet is running tor exit nodes.

Sooo the government can't stop itself? And we are the government. So we cannot stop ourselves from spying on ourselves. It makes sense and it is a positive feedback cycle that will…

He didn't ask for conversion rates. He asked a total and I didn't get the impression that his question was accusing anyone of anything.

Dont count on it. They will patent the encoders, the decoders, the container. Unless you code to the exact bitstream using the same exact software to encode that bitstream they cou…

In the Scott Adams Crazyverse(tm) this is a good-bad idea.

It can be done but it is a little bit of pain. There is a need here for a cross platform keyboard lib for js. Also Chromium goes full screen just fine. Don't actually see too big o…

These mockups look great. The world would be a better place if this idea was followed through on by someone. I don't see it being the source of huge financial gain (comfortable hop…

insurance? dispute resolution?

h.264 doesn't have a patent cliff. The move from mpeg1->2->4 has been one of gradual refinement. Like the move from 1 pixel to .5 pixel motion estimation. We should be using a laye…

Those "leaked" photos are not of an apple product. The other photos show a heat vent (which weren't shown in this article). Apple will not put a heat vent on the ipad.

Tony Wright doesn't know it, or maybe he does but he is like the velvet corporate fascist. I thought RescueTime was sort of inside joke, a skinner box of frog-in-the-frying-pan to …

That cost MS hundreds of million dollars in development and lost opportunities. You can only do that if you have no competition. If they had added USB support to NT4 we wouldn't ha…

Everyone had to have two copies of video anyway. One for firefox (WebM only) and H.264 for iOS devices. The only thing this has done is shift the sizes of the pie. And for the bett…

Quote from the about us page, "The right to exist and the survival of the State of Israel are of great importance to us" Ugh. If it says it in the name, it usually isn't. They are …

I have a copy, nicely weird book.

It feels like it violates the tenets he laid out in the lead-in. "Hey... see if you can stumble through recreating novel research by my clever application of the Socratic method. W…

Thank you for the word vainglorious.

Step 1, send us your PS3. Step 2, we will send it back fixed. Done.

At least the birds are birds and not penises. Flying penises with bombs that attack buildings full of pigs would be wrong.

Digikey is used for sourcing engineering parts and smallish runs for items that aren't as cost sensitive. It has never competed on price, in stock, fast shipping and lots of and lo…

This is so believably amazing!

I think the author misses the point of Vivek's post. His claim is that minimalism as an over arching aesthetic for a creative mode of operation is not tenable. It is good in cycles…
