If every entry routes to 127.0.0.1, what's the worst that could happen?

We have a thriving, helpful community already up and running at http://www.reddit.com/r/Scholar/.

It's the future!

Are we seriously calling it Xbox 720?

    Graham also lists Morris as one of his personal heroes, saying "He's never wrong."[citation needed]

Haha, it almost looks like [citation needed] is the part of the quote.

The term "Web Page" was also coined in his honor.

I'd like to point out that a method of resigning applications for piracy purposes has been around since early 2010, and that Apple doesn't have a history of taking action against services offering adding UDIDs to developer profiles for money.

This is fascinating, I highly recommend reading through the last two links, truly riveting stuff.

What kind of headline is that?

The other one is Facebook.

I like that Vice is going to be covering this, they are the perfect outlet for this story.

Let's eliminate any social interactions to pursue maximum effectiveness, then we can finally focus on the things that matter - like programming! Beep, boop.

Only if the text is multiple paragraphs, otherwise it's too much of a hassle.

Not everyone's life is on the internet only.

On iOS, using any non-basic Latin character in SMS makes it switch to 16 bit, even when there is no reason for that to happen. It's a thing that most foreign language speakers must live with.

By doing this full of excuses write-up, this guy wasted a substantial amount of time that he could have spent better researching the issue. Your consumer doesn't care that Emoji is this much or that much bits, it doesn't matter for him that you're running your infrastructure on poorly chosen software - there is absolutely no excuse for not supporting this in a native iOS app, especially now that Emoji is so widely used and deeply integrated in iOS.

How is that a problem they are focusing on, anyway, when their landing page features awful, out of date mockups of the app? (not even actual screenshots - notice the positions of menu bar items) They are also featuring Emoji in every screenshot - ending support might be a fresh development, but I still find that ironic.

Seriously, you want to take people out of journalism? Even if it's an excerpt from the story, I wouldn't trust an algorithm to do it for me.

It's not that it's a swear word, it's that "bitch please" feels to me like something straight out of memes/rage comics. Things like this impacted hugely on reddit's quality downfall, and I wouldn't be too avid to see this happen here.

I never want to see "Bitch Please" on the HN frontpage.

Wow, an entire article based on a vague non-promising comment. Internet journalism at its best.

You are comparing a radio and a speaker with an mp3 player and a computer. Not everything is design.

How is this good? How is this considered to be a hack? You make this sound like something that can be achieved in a more sophisticated way. How?

Apple acquires scripts now?

Exactly. You don't put an abstract on prose. I believe in tl;drs, but that shouldn't be a rule.

This is fantastic. Steve Reich would be proud.

"Le media"?

It's a touchy subject in Poland, it's generally not accepted that anyone other than the Poles deserves any recognition and any mention of the actual state of history gets you shifty looks. So while the world is starting giving credit to Rejewski's team, the broad audience here is just now discovering that it wasn't solely their work.

Do you have a link to the earlier reddit thread?

I'm getting this strange vibe from the original ad that makes it look like it might have been something out of Portlandia. Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HhP23M53Yc

It just begs to be parodied.

> whether the by-the-hour payment model might tempt the maids to work slower

They purposefully work slower, they don't come next time.

I really hope it's the improved mindset that's helping them, not literally following the guides.
