So, time to buy.

Thanks done, OpenSSH is an indispensable tool.

If you go with Ruby, try sinatra-synchrony.

There seems to be something wrong with this round, whats causing so many errors (over 2 million)?

Round 6 didn't have this many errors

Before they were failing these easy tests, these numbers show a marked improvement.

What is the reason for such low living expenses in Berlin?

Its quite embarrassing that discrimination is going to be a part of Quebec's official values.

Lots of disappointment on iphone 5c pricing, here is my theory.

I think iphone 5c was never intended to match prices of android phones, it was created to allow Apple to expand its market share in Chinese market. From what is suggested in media, one of the reason Apple had a hard time getting China Mobile on board, was the high cost of subsidizing flag ship iphones. By creating a mid tier phone Apple may have been able to convince China Mobile to carry iphone.

Tim Cook has been very bullish about Chinese market, and this move may turn out very well.

Every other country has these problems, the bureaucratic machinery is all powerful, even more powerful than politicians whom you can vote out.

The whole interview is very insightful, thank you.

To get around this issue they can build an alarm which starts sounding when the battery is getting low. Another feature would be to send a notification to the care giver to charge the battery. The third fail safe would be to alert care giver if there is no communication with the device.

Sometimes I wish there was a way to down vote fluff pieces like these.

Ashton Kutcher is portraying Steve Jobs in an upcoming movie.

Another limitation of Google Maps is, it does not provide offline navigation which becomes very important in places where you don't have mobile data coverage.

A better comparison would be Golang vs Sinatra Synchrony, instead of using Rails.

You can try Lapis http://leafo.net/lapis/ its a new framework built on openresty.

Excellent insights on running a high availability operation, one of the best technical talks I have heard this year.

Because some people on HN want to have a discussion on this issue, so they upvoted it. If you don't like it I guess you can flag it.

That is a typical explanation but there is nothing stopping you from using Sinatra for building large apps. In fact I find myself just as productive with Sinatra as I was with Rails for building very feature full apps.

Getting your ideas out is getting much easier.

Which keyboard would you recommend, I have a Galaxy Nexus, and use to for emergency ssh sessions when I dont have access the computer.

What you are referring to are elective procedures, and 2 months of waiting time wouldn't kill you. There is no waiting time for emergencies in Canada or Europe.

Yes if you throw alot of money, you get state of art facilities and top doctors, but are you getting the return on investment if the healthcare system is lagging behind the "welfare states".

I am running it on Nexus S running ICS and there is a definite improvement, in launching apps and getting back to home. I think the improvement is mostly seen on older devices, newer devices are already fast enough.

Zimbabwe and Iran are bad examples, because hyperinflation in these countries was caused by sanctions and significant drop in production capacity.

I think part of the problem with Greece and Ireland is also that they are part of EU and are no more sovereign and in full control of their financial policies.

Can you point out some of those.

I have come to the realization that oil prices do not translate directly to gas prices we pay at the pump. Even with a glut of oil, the gas prices at the pump depends on refineries which are controlled by the local companies. I think the $4 gas is the new normal. Also, the Saudi economy rely a lot on high oil prices so they wont dump more oil in the market.
