You can also prefix any WSJ links (among others) with “facebook.com/l.php?u=” to receive content reserved for users arriving from Facebook; that is, if you don't mind Facebook tracking.
Also broken everywhere else in the site for me: you never get back to where you were* , even on a “static” page full of links. A horrible excuse of a web site – but perhaps that still makes for a good web app. I…
Affirmative action is racist. Accepting that, you can of course debate what sorts of racism we should allow, and perhaps even encourage. I probably disagree with you, but that's just my opinion.
In larger sense, if fed birds are more successful, it affects the distribution of species (favouring fed part of the ecosystem). Not that it's necessarily a bad thing, and city environment does that anyway.
I.e. “how do I operate my shell”. You certainly want to understand shell expansion to get stuff done effectively.
I don't agree with that at all; a web browser has easily a more complex user interface than a single-purpose command-line tool like “rm” – and that is even before we open any document at all, with all their conventions…

It's a VW Polo from the early noughties. Petrol, albeit a rather small engine to match the car :) To clarify my earlier post, I meant of course that a single bottle of oil is enough for the refill (between 3 and 4…
I guess I'm at the other end of spectrum by simply following what the manufacturer proposes: I change my oil along with the filter every 18,000 miles, and so far, after 100,000 miles (and then some) have not had any…
Are you sure you're making a point – because I can't see one. Seems more about unnecessary bitching about C++ being different from [some-different-language]. If they could do anything more stupid as introducing a…
I wonder which has a bigger impact on human consumption levels: a person that decides to save his time by driving a car instead of waiting for a bus, or Africa's population increasing from 250 million in 1960 to about 5…
>politicians are too scared to introduce that. Of course politicians should be the one who decide the rules. That's how democracy works... Keep in mind that the jet fuel that's used to transport all the world's hipsters…
You can calculate a number from the resource (over)usage. Some will, of course, claim that we consume too much – but at that point, it's a matter of opinion. I call it overpopulation for the current level of technology.
TIL. I don't think I've ever seen one of these hotbox driers in person, but gathered somewhere that those had existed earlier and saw them as fully obsolete technology used only in some industrial settings. The fact…
And phytoestrogens for that nice warped hormonal balance... No thanks.
>At a normal viewing distance a 100dpi monitor is already decent. No it isn't.
You'd think you should be more confused about how alcohol is as accepted as it is. I feel more pity for the way people still want to impose control over other folks life – and quietly dream of the day more people…
The sleep sub-process of time is not part of the pipeline, however. It will exit after the requested time has passed.
Each sphere is only worth 5 MW (for 4 hours, totalling 20 MW·h worth of electricity). 80 spheres were not meant to cover the entire base load, but just to make them a relevant factor in the grid.

That isn't even relatively close to being the same animation. If that doesn't matter, who not just (paraphrasing): <blink>...</blink>
Speaking as an European, can you really call driving subsidized (if it is in one single area, such as building code) when much more cash is spent in social services paid by fuel taxes?
Because other forms of transport never get people killed, right? Because only passenger vehicles need roads? Here in the Finnish capital Helsinki we had all of 2 traffic fatalities last year. A low anomaly for sure, but…
HTML, CSS and JavaScript are not hard. What's hard is being able to teach any single person them – that requires many sorts of people skills. The irony is that for people with the right mindset, learning the 3 of them,…
gets is impossible to use safely with unformatted input, which need not be the case.
