Perhaps he's never heard of Google or Red Hat or science. Maybe he should google Google on...google.

I like it. It still gives dynamic types like Javascript, but catches a huge class of errors immediately upon compilation. It's exactly what I wish Javascript had.

And as I've read here and other places, humans significantly underestimate large quantities of things.

You should've guessed 89,000.

>The 'http:// URL prefix is now hidden by default

This can be changed back with browser.urlbar.trimURLs in about:config. They should've provided an option for it.

Another benefit of larger rockets is the width of the components they can carry. I'm no expert, but larger spacecraft modules seem like a big win for long duration missions.

That writeup was short and pointedly sweet.

And I get the feeling his 'productivity' is measure in dollars - but wages increase in cities due to competition for workers and other factors that don't involve true output.

A truck passing another truck isn't necessarily objectionable, but when they're on a hill and spend multiple minutes doing it (and sometimes even give up), I get very annoyed.

Recursion is its own reward.

And yet they must be able to talk about gender-unknown people...

I much prefer Seamonkey's "tab close button on right" feature.

I'm totally digging these ideas :)

Humans aren't meant to stare at a computer all day, and they're not meant to stay inside an isolated domicile the rest of the time. I think our lifestyle is mostly to blame.

This requires setting up syncing, which seems complicated when I just want to copy some files.

The Chinese government responds to all insults like a hurt child. I don't think truth matters as much in asia as does perception, or "face".

>the hospital at which the surgery took place was not qualified to perform the procedure

And I'm sure it's still open for business...

>nobody wanted to risk their big expensive battleships in such an engagement again

This is his only proof that they're useless? Sorry, I need a lot more than that. Anybody who's played Civilization will know that you keep your battleships safe due to their cost, but they're supremely powerful nonetheless.

The Mongols could defeat regular armies because they had many thousands of men who lived their lives on horseback, with bow in hand. It's not that they were smarter, it's that they had the option.

+1 metoo

In my opinion software homepages should look somewhat like wikipedia pages. Any software that tells me how awesome it is before explaining what it is quickly loses my interest. And using a grid with images in place of a list really annoys me.

Holy pressure vessel batman! I did not know that and find it weird and fascinating.

Fortunately, Mozilla Seamonkey tends to leave out such annoying changes.

>removal of the status bar text at the bottom of FF4

Hell yeah, that was stupid. I really hate the new one for many reasons, one of which is that I have to search for it whenever I hover over a link. And whey the hell can't I turn it back on???

As usual, Seamonkey keeps what Firefox changed to stupid.

I didn't know about SDCH, looks pretty neat.

I think you give too much credence to this "ambiguity".The idea that copyright could forbid deep linking was always absurd.

That website makes me not want their software.

That may have been more than 750 million years ago.

Willpower is a different subject though. No reason not to go for both.

>monospace text just doesn't cut it anymore

Maybe in your terminal world, but not mine buddy.

There was a giant picture and no summary, so I skipped straight here to find out whether I wanted to read it. Obviously I don't.
