Yes, that's true, point to you! I'm not sure I would call it 'popular' though. Maybe 'somewhat common among people with no other possible options outside of death or prison (death)…

> He makes an explicit case for both (1) and (2). He doesn't try and merely imply (2). You read wrong. tvladek did not say Buecheler implied anything, only that being correct about…

I wondered what the actual number was, related to HN's issues of course. Would be fun to know something like this.

I kept reading expecting an explanation for this, but there isn't one. Does he understand the difference? Who knows. The explanation of "every step of the build" is pretty limited …

They probably left reddit out of the list since it's kind of a dirty word on HN. :)

Um, since Instagram is Facebook, by my estimate Facebook owns 46% of that graph and is still most popular by a long-shot.

Same here. I love Alfred but I often forget it's even around because of my visor terminal.

All fair points, but I never defined adulthood, only disagreed with the parent which stated "the cut-off is not biological, it's social". Of course there are social factors as well…

No, it was sarcasm.

Can't trust that graph because the x axis doesn't start at 0 ;)

> And that's because the cut-off is not biological, it's social. I disagree. There is a wealth of biological evidence to show that a human's brain doesn't finish maturing until (ap…

Glad to help a fellow Portlander! :o)

I should clarify that the video quality was fine, but it would pause for buffering often at the beginning. Once I made it a few minutes in this cleared up. I'm in the Pacific North…

You should consider expanding this to include other types of therapy workers. I know from doing tech work amongst mental health professionals that most are required to log x amount…

Thanks for the link! I Googled this half-heartedly this morning while cleaning out my inbox but didn't have time to sift through the results. Funny stuff!

Your demo video is stuttering and unwatchable. I'm guessing it's getting hammered from this post. The site looks really nice, and appears to have really great content. Signup achie…

I would read it. As you are seemingly living my dream I would love to do a bit of vicarious living through your blog. :)

Carrier pigeons? On my commute this morning, while dodging a flock of Canada Geese that live in park, I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to ship illegal items via migrating b…

Minor note, but the p (or i) is not important here, so it would just be HD720 or HD1080. The p/i denotes a method of displaying the image, either through interlacing[0] or progress…

The best advice I can give for exercising is to turn off your brain (or part of it) for a while. Concentrate on visceral things like breathing and posture, not performance metrics …

As someone who assigns little value to academia I would like to say, without irony or pretense: Best of luck to you, sir! I hope it's fulfilling, but never to the point of satisfac…

Because if they don't exhaust their budget they won't get as much funding next year. Got to put some boots on the ground and make it look like they're busy! EDIT: Seriously, though…

It's true. My first thought when reading "if it is managed properly" was "yeah, right." We humans tend to fuck things up. You see? Cynical.

This was my first thought too, except for rogue/nethack/other ascii-based roguelikes.
