Apparently it is preferred that if you have that much to say, then you should create a blog post and then submit that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Return - Allows almost any Jew or relative of a Jew to migrate to Israel and quickly gain citizenship.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizenship_and_Entry_into_Isra... - prevents residents of Iran, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen and areas governed by the Palestinian Authority from automatically gaining residency and citizenship through family reunion and marriage.

As an aside I just had a look at what stage Reia is up to. The github page says that Reia is now defunct. (https://github.com/tarcieri/reia)

There is also another ruby-like language on the erlang VM - Elixir (https://github.com/josevalim/elixir)

- Piracy of Pocket Casts on iOS is about 30% - Piracy of Pocket Casts on Android is about 20%

moving into Android development was a very smart (some might say lucky) move which has enabled us to stay profitable

We definitely need to focus more, but moving into Android was the smartest thing we ever did. We now earn more money there (consistently) than iOS.

*"Mistake: It's any US company involved with the complaint that led to the seizure in the US. Not just any US company."

Being from Australia, I'm not going to be writing to any politicians, but I sure as hell hope this bill or others like it do not come to pass.

The article didn't really say, all it said was "The copyright industry gains the right to “notify” payment processors such as Visa that a company looks bad"

The means are all the same.

It is an empty statue base in Trafalgar Square, London. It is presently used for temporary displays of artworks.

New South Wales (the state next door) has seen a similar reduction in deaths. In about 1970, the death toll was around 1300 per year. It is now down to 367 in the last year, and has been averaging about 400 the last few years. NSW has a population about 30% larger than Victoria.

The ads seen here (NSW) are mostly in in the same graphic vein as those seen in Victoria. Indeed many of them are the same advertisements.

The 'pinky' ad was actually an attempt to reach the young men whom you say would ignore it. It was though that they were actually ignoring the more graphic ads, still thinking that it won't happen to them.

"The requested URL /blog/the-man-you-want-to-be-does-not-matter/swizec/2071 was not found on this server."

People don't feel any need to upgrade, as everything works with their current browser/OS.

I've used the internet at my Sister in law's (in Korea) - lightning fast internet speeds, with a creaking slow operating system full of bloatware.

The government mandate encouraged many websites to also use ActiveX. South Korea is probably the only country where ActiveX is still in use. Internet Explorer has a browser share of 90-95% in Korea. IE6 is about 15-20% of this.

If your target audience is English-speaking or European countries, the relevant proportion is 2% to 3% or less.

That's a pretty good level to start to consider whether supporting that small percentage is actually making you more money than you would if you didn't support their browser.

If it wasn't done as a side project then it isn't really relevant.

It's just that much of this sort of internet crime comes from Russia and other former soviet countries, most likely due to more lax laws, law enforcement and an inability for westerners to touch them.

And you trust them to:

- not spam your friends

- not mine your details/friends details for data for phishing and other scams.

- not attempt to use your password (or variations of) on other websites.

Sounds like a smart thing to do.
