I think it makes sense - you'd probably be driving the car in for the inspection, so it'd be nice to have some sort of confidence in your seatbelt for that drive.

But whereas the NBA can enforce a salary cap for its players, who would enforce the salary cap for CEOs?

I don't think the studious hermit going over every line of open source code was how it was supposed to work either though.

It's more just that you have lots of groups exercising the code and looking into various portions of the code - if every group decides "Yep, the portion we use/looked at is solid", then you gain some confidence that the code does what it's supposed to. The more groups using/perusing the code, the more confidence you gain.

This is also disgusting. Can you imagine a Greyhound where every seat was also a toilet? I would definitely think long and hard before riding it.

Wow, so you're saying the UMP game in Starcraft 'Break the Condom' was actually fairly accurate.

I've got a friend that had her account deleted for awhile and then logged into Spotify; apparently, Spotify silently reactivates Facebook accounts if you use the same email for both services.

I'm wondering the same thing. I mostly enjoy articles from Medium, except that they seem to frequently present foreign-language articles that I can't read.

Just a note:

If they’re going to reinvent the whole thing, I’d just go for three dots. One dot for low service, two dots for ok, three dots for none, and no dots for none.

I think you meant "...three dots for excellent" or something along those lines.

Great idea though!

Yep, they keep a history of chats even when you're using Pidgin. This is pretty easy to confirm...

I think the third paragraph explained their thinking:

    While they offered a relatively short sentence, 
    prosecutors were absolutely determined to get a
    felony plea and some kind of prison time, according
    to sources cited by The Huffington Post. They wanted
    those results because they believed it would justify
    their bringing charges in the first place, according
    to HuffPo.

Is it just me or does that car look like it was printed with a 3D printer?

There's nothing preventing an RC copter from detecting chemicals as well..
