I think if we want to combat the racism in police departments, we have to stop coming up with phony flimsy statements like this in the news, because this gives opposition to combat…

The only things I saw of substance in the article were a few anecdotes alleging the police are targeting innocent "people of color" which may be true but needs some hard data to ba…

Yeah, except Raul Castro, you know, the dictator of Cuba is well known as a murderous thug. Please study history before dancing on the graves of his victims.

Yeah, I'm sure this puff piece about the island nation ruled by a murderous dictator will do nicely in helping people know how to "think" about Cuba. Do some research on Raul Castr…

Or, in other words, the assumption is that it is not and never can be the case that N people can be provided for by the effort of K people, where K This attitude is terrifying. As …

"that doesn't mean Samsung was the first one who released a large-screen smart phone. The Dell Streak was one of the first, and Windows Phone has the Titan I and II." Since when di…

The same reason most people would consider a 36" flat screen TV a better deal at the same price as a 28" model.

I have an iPad and web apps suck on it too. What is your benchmark for good performance? I'm being serious as I'd love to be able to have a legitimate mobile outlet for high perfor…

"That's no different from using HTML5+JavaScript against browser specific APIs" Sure it is if those browsers are cross-platform. I doubt the Windows 8 APIs are cross platform.

"web applications to first-class citizens alongside the native apps. Android fails at this pretty badly" Android isn't "failing" at something that it isn't trying to do. Web apps g…

I think you might be missing the point. Android does a great job of integrating data from the cloud with the operating system. An example is the Google Music player streams your mu…

Do you really think the management at that Burger King are that stupid? Put yourself in their position. Say you get this picture. First you don't take it seriously then you look at…

That's a pretty worthless example with nothing to compare it against. Had the developers released it on iOS or Android and had more success on Windows Phone then you would have an …

"The choice they made was that we need not shoehorn interfaces into desktop or touch categories." Imposing a touch centric UI onto traditional desktops is the very definition of sh…

It's just like how Ballmer came out recently railing about how no stone would be left unturned competing with Apple and how MS responded to Linux in the early netbook era. For a gl…

"They bought their way into search via the Yahoo deal." That has only really bore fruit in the US though. MS have less than 5 percent share of search worldwide. "Google bought thei…

Have you considered the possibility that Schmidt the man actually believes that Bing is competitive with Google and sees this as something to rally against? How is that lying* and …

Google Docs has both of the shortcuts you mention working correctly and many more so it is definitely possible.

Exactly right and one of the main things I missed about Ubuntu on my desktop over Android on my Xoom was Android's seamless integration of "cloud" data and the operating system. In…

Wouldn't have happened had they not wasted 6 billion on aQuantive trying to buy their way into search. Google paddled that bottom.

"Bing may be losing money but if MS keeps it in place, it will be able to capture search if Google just happens to seriously stumble somehow." Really? That's all they have to do, h…
