I know this is horribly cynical, but dead man's friends will probably be highly engaged with the platform afterward. Facebook will find a way to monetize it.

It's absolutely morally indefensible to refuse services because of what someone was born as.

People would rather use a functional but insecure tool than a broken secure one. No question. It's hard for devs to understand that for some reason.

Isn't it telling that the antifeatures pushed by the updates are so much worse than the threat of data interception?

Old device user here. The frequency of exploits is going up, so older devices with few features and small attack surface are safer than new devices with the bells and whistles and a bigger attack surface. Basically, fuck you to the assholes pushing updates. They are doing it wrong and I reject them. I will accept no update with antifeatures, no matter how much they say it is good for me.

Stop bundling antifeatures into security updates and maybe people will want them.

That'd be a fine option if it was a real option.

Now watch, they got caught with hands in the cookie jar, and there's going to be a bunch of pitchforks out for wikileaks not catching all the other kids stealing cookies. It's gross and childish.

Funny how morals don't scale...

Thanks for listening. :)

Why would you hope that? Most mere working folk are struggling to get by. Keep your audience in mind. Make it small, tight, and fast.

Constructive criticism: Your site looks like crap on a small display. Please anchor the info bars to the top and bottom of the page, not the screen.

Personally I just stay away from virtual online economies. Fun with an RTS here and there is fine, but if I'm going to sink my life into getting rich, it better be real.

Nope! They just leak a lot of hydraulic fluid.

That's not true at all. Cost is king. Only flagship products care about pushing size down.

Strong-arming the spec is bad.

Looking at this in the other direction, this is giving them quite a bit of profit now with lots of room to lower the price to remain competitive later. Nintendo is just posturing to undercut the next gen releases from sony and ms.

I had an idea for something like this. I found a fictional device called a memex on wikipedia, and I figured that it would be very easy to implement simply searching your browser cache from the address bar. Obviously the cache will need to be big and persistent, but man it sure would be useful.

I am hoping that http2 crap protocol will attract all the ecommerce nasties and leave http as the obvious choice for static documents.

Hard to tell where the problems are between the carrier and handset are nowadays. Thanks for pointing that out. I missed it.

I've seen it and I'm pretty sure this is an android bug. I noticed that in lollipop, contacts with the same number but different area codes are not treated differently in the messaging UI.

It is now

pagerdoodie?

So is my jabber server!

It'd be great if it worked right.

That happens to me often. When my home ip changes and k9 mail connects for the first time to gmail, they always lock my account out until I log in from a desktop they recognize. Freaky freaky.

They don't at all deny listening to conversations in this article. They only deny using that information for advertising.

Now about the confirmation bias thing, it seems more likely to me that your credit card history or the store member card purchase history is being mined.

I've noticed that a lot of similar comments will be deleted if you simply respond "shill". Sure, it's rude, but a real person will argue with you. A shill will delete to avoid being associated with the accusation.

Money trumped affirmative action and ageism in one fell swoop. They needed experienced sales people.

json and xml are visually balanced. All beginnings have an end. I have trouble with yaml because it lacks that.
