    This looks nice. Ran through a 5 question Go scenario and got 4/5 right. Which feels about right with my current depth of knowledge. One of the very first pieces of code I wrote wh…

    The fact that this also shuts off access to many public library Ebooks on these devices should be getting more press. My wife exclusively uses her Kindle for library books and it l…

    Basically the same as cleaning up after they hired the cheapest dev they can find. Something our little shop has been doing for 4 years now. Can't wait to charge to debug a 100,000…
