This looks really good, definitely going to pick it up when 8 comes out. Playing with the 8 previews, I've had problems with the density of not-called-metro-anymore interfaces and a mouse. 90% of this looks workable, and hopefully the rest

Spatial is great! What's better than WKT though? WKB?

Didn't deliver on destroying Facebook though, which was (generally) what backers (half-heartedly) hoped for. Not saying they didn't succeed, just that there are similar lessons about expectations there.

They are less broken now. The Rails team put a lot of effort into fixing them in the past three releases.

Bankruptcy is a laundromat for assets, it's pretty much impossible to get them back.

It's joystiq's mobile site, not sure why there aren't ads there.

Was it really? Many frameworks don't offer much beyond HTTP basic.

No, there are new versions out. 3.2.6, 3.1.6 and 3.0.14

First generation hardware is difficult to support. They dropped the original iPhone in iOS 3.

Yeah, the Rails code is pretty easy to follow too: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/f3e1b21ca91afbd97f33d1e5...

Scribd is great and all, but a quantcast screenshot doesn't show it's profitable or represent their growth in anyway. Anything else to add?

Great that you care about this, but the environmental consequences have been largely invisible to Americans for many years. Be it CO2 or destroyed ecosystems in every oil producing country, the damage is largely done. I'd hardly blame this

Yeah, that's why they're supported in PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, DB2, MSSQL, even SQLite... Multi-dimensional data isn't restricted to the world of GIS, and B-Trees are not up to the task.

The next three by units (Bridgestone, Michelin, Goodyear) all do commercial/industrial/aviation, I think Goodyear falls out a bit at the top end. 400 tonne trucks use Bridgestone/Michelin, the Airbus A380 uses Bridgestone, for what it's wor

IE8 and Android 2.4 don't support it for one, but it does seem SVG has never really had traction. I've heard SVG has poorer rendering performance in most browsers (I'm not actually sure if that's true), and that some folks feel it makes it

"The Internet" was basically Reddit and a guy who asked if he should ask Stewart about SOPA. This is the follow up thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/od6qy/i_asked_jon_... Edit: Original thread - http://www.reddit.com/r/po

I had the same experience. Bumped to a manager that had me log in and disable it. A month later, it was on again.

It's because 4chan ran a campaign to get it there, not because of the content.

The article mentions that Google and others (Microsoft) got in on the same financing deal granting them similar licenses. RIM licensed the same portfolio this past March. Anyone know why Google/MS/RIM haven't filed to intervene as well? Edi

Spot on. I'm surprised he likened it to a 'Canon vs Nikon' debate. Transitioning from membrane to mechanical is the biggest difference though... Love my Cherry Blues.

97% of production is in China, mostly from Bayan Obo and illegal operations in the south. They're thought to have 30-40% of identified REE reserves because the cost to mine & process them is prohibitive. China fixes REE prices to keep

It's a pretty sizable deposit, but it's underground. That means it'll be pricier to extract, and not all of the ore can be mined. Looks like lower grade than the Chinese deposits currently mined too, and it's a different mix of elements. h

It is working, just not for them. I use Quickbooks Online, Freshbooks and LessAccounting (rather disputing "They will never (99.9% never) try to replace their current accounting system"). I do SMB stuff. My primary accountant insisted on mo
