I leave my phone at home when I commit crimes

It's funny because it's true

I'll stop bringing it up when people stop saying that piracy is the same as car theft. Otherwise why not go all the way and say piracy is genocide.

Piracy for personal use is a 'victimless' (don't bite my head off please) crime, that's why it's OK here. Stealing is not.

Stealing a car deprives someone of a car. Copying a car does not.

The EFF is right, this is still way too hard.

Only one single game in that list actually got released and half of the rest are way overdue.

What is the function of LDL (bad?) cholesterol in the body?

If you have really serious security concerns, there are companies that will shred your documents on-site and then take them away to be burned.

Privatise the TSA and have each airport pay for their own security. It will disappear like fog before the sun.

Hahahahaha

Good trolling, you'll get lots of bites.

Yea this is what we do. Estimate how painful and time-consuming this client will be and price the sale accordingly. That $200 a month product we sell? For you, just $50k upfront for setup and training and $100k per year for support and licensing. Sometimes they turn out to be good clients after the initial pain.

But the iPad and the iPad mini has the same number of pixels. If I browse a site on my mini I expect the same UI as when I use my iPad.

I'd be pretty unhappy if my favourite website was missing a column just because I was on my mini.

So I guess most of the 'real' work will be done by private contractors.

What about a bagel with two holes?

Just so we are clear: You're against universal health care?

The iPhone 5 does have turn by turn navigation.

Is moving from Rails to Node not a complete rewrite?

> Does the cost of mining one BTC influence the price of one BTC?

Difficulty adjusts automatically to match the total mining hashrate - there's always about 10 new blocks mined per hour. So if more people are mining the difficulty goes up.

What is changing is the number of BTC you get for mining a block. Currently each block is worth 50 BTC. Soon that will drop to 25 BTC. If many people find mining to be uneconomical they will stop their mining rigs and the difficulty will drop.

What will change is the influx of new bitcoin into the market, instead of 500BTC per hour we'll get 250BTC per hour (on average). Will that make the price go up? Maybe.

Be careful what you measure because measuring affects what you measure. You'll probably end up travelling a lot more, probably driving more and so on.

Most plants evolved mechanisms to stop their seeds and sprouts being eaten and digested. Legumes can be toxic to eat raw, contain aflatoxins and cause digestive issues - but they don't contribute much to your diet besides a bit of protein.

HFCS and sugar are almost identical - both are about half fructose and half glucose. I don't think one is significantly worse than the other.

Aspartame is perfectly safe physically. It does affect how you perceive taste of course. Your brain links the sweetness of the aspartame with the caffeine high. But remember caffeine alone is addictive anyway so I don't think this is anything to worry about.

Where do you work?

Who pissed in your corn flakes?

There's no reason other than the data store that would make their site that slow. Yes I have experience in this area. Until they come out and tell me otherwise I'm gonna bet that the data store is at fault. I could be wrong but I'm willing to give you 5 to 1 odds against.
