The exchange is not taking the other side of the bet; they're just matching you up with another user who wants to take the opposite position to you and then taking a fee for provid…

Did you contact Anker? Among the many products I've bought from them, I've had a couple of problematic ones, but have found that in these cases their support has been very helpful …

If that were the case and USPTO were in on the trick, why the need to drop HTTPS? They'd have that data already, so could just share it directly.

This reminds me of "The Wikipedia Game" we'd play at school. You'd all start on one random page, and race to get to some completely unrelated target page, only by clicking through …

I'm pretty sure that when you register a Homebridge instance to your Apple device though you get a message about the accessory being in test mode. Homebridge is presumably making u…

I think that the "if-then" part is a simplification of imperative paradigms. I've never heard it described that way, but I assume the part about "pin pointed procedures" tied to da…

Thanks a lot! I just merged it.

What happened to your 2011 MBP? If it was graphics card related, Apple just launched a repair program: https://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro-videoissues/

Interesting that they mention Netflix before Amazon Instant Video in the description. "It's an easy way to enjoy Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, Hulu Plus, YouTube.com, music, and m…
