Sometimes it displays two words at a time. Otherwise, very cool!
A) Your argument against H-1B's is disingenuous at best. And I'm curious, are you against expanding H-1B's but in favor of increasing the amount of low-skill immigrants and/or granting citizenship to illegal immigrants?…
Great design is art. You can master the principles, techniques, and skills, but in the end great design comes down to vision and imagination. However that doesn't mean developers can't be really good designers. Anybody…
Are you serious? The Daily Show is no more "news" than Hannity is.
I don't know anything about ABC, but generally speaking, I imagine that the likelihood of a media company's internal team declaring that their own company's reporting is biased is about as likely as BP creating an…
Al Jazeera and BBC are both solidly on the left. I'm not disputing the quality of their reporting or the value of exposing oneself to their reporting, but you're fooling yourself if you think they're neutral.
There's also a certain arbitrariness to what the media establishment chooses to cover and how they choose to cover it. It often seems as if the "news" is nothing more than what entrenched political and/or private…
No such thing as a neutral news source. The closet thing is a news aggregator which will expose you to a variety of different viewpoints. For US political news realclearpolitics.com is pretty good. They also aggregate…
"Rules of Attraction" was far more entertaining than this drivel.
WASPs in the US act similarly.
You're grossly simplifying things. A person may be driven to succeed and generate wealth for their family because they want to be able to send their children to the best schools possible, or they want to be able to…
When did the notion that a currency which loses value over time is ideal become orthodoxy? There are plenty of legitimate arguments that can be constructed against the idea of an inherently inflationary currency too.
The computer cycles are useful: they secure the network.
You don't need an insane amount of computing power to create new bitcoins. The amount of bitcoins generated every ten minutes is essentially set in stone. What drives people to dedicate more and more computing power to…
Krugman is an arrogant ass. He makes sweeping generalizations about topics he knows little to nothing about all the time.
Krugman doesn't understand Bitcoin. The computing power expended on mining is used to secure the Bitcoin network. There are many, many costs associated with securing the integrity of established financial networks too.
Recessions and depressions happen to economies. To critique Bitcoin for its potential to induce a recession or depression is ridiculous, because the USD -- and its influence on the economy -- isn't going anywhere…
Wow, the financial press is falling in love with writing about Bitcoin. Now that it's been linked to Cyprus there's an increased probability of Bitcoin being discussed in reference to future Eurozone economic events.…
