As someone who hasn't struggled with weight I don't understand this sentiment. I'd love to eat way more than I already do and I'm constantly hungry. Sure it's hard but if I ate till I couldn't regularly I'

I agree and I'm not understanding the seemingly dissenting opinions in the larger comments. This is basic thermodynamics.

Flight attendants do seem to have a lot of discretion when it comes to instructing passengers and I know that failing to follow safety related instructions can lead to bans or police involvement. I'm not sure if they'd be able to

If the $10k tickets provide a private area separated from the other passengers with a partition that prevents observation then I'd expect privacy from being recorded. Likewise in a hotel room, it's a solitary space separate from o

I wouldn't like it and if I noticed I'd politely ask them to stop. However, (and I'm not a lawyer) I don't think it'd be illegal or even unethical. If someone was recording me napping on a plane I'd treat it th

In this case wouldn't that point be irrelevant? Generally airlines have assigned seating and they already have validation of your identity from the booking information.

It's interesting how the expectation of privacy varies from person to person! Since members of the general public are in close proximity I generally wouldn't consider an airplane cabin a place where I could have a reasonable expec

It's my understanding that a release form is typically only used if the video is going to be made available publicly, used in marketing material, etc. If their commercial purpose was internal to the company then a release wouldn't

Reddit is showing its emergency maintenance page sporadically, I wonder if the root cause is the same.

Many of these systems are in place because they automate record keeping and accounting, would this transaction modification decrease the effectiveness of the system? How can employees be better tasked to bend business rules while still work

I have a three monitor setup on my desktop right now and love the extra space. I picked up a few ASUS VS247H-P's when they were on sale for a good price. I can't comment on the quality compared to other modern displays considering I upgrade

Good list, every time I look at other configurations or options for Emacs I learn something new :). Does anyone know if there's been any news on Emacs and Guile?

I've run into this problem when setting up email servers before, between DKIM, SPF, Various blacklists and Spam filters on the servers and clients that may catch important (non-spam) email it's hard to keep up with even when you just want a

This is a good point, anything that they create should make life easier for people who have a wide range of email volumes. That is easy to forget when designing an application because the fastest user persona to consult for design decisions

Great work, hope you can handle the traffic that is coming your way. I would be surprised if you didn't get bought by Google.

I remember installing Flash on Debian about 4 years ago and wishing there was a 64 bit version so I didn't have to clutter up the system with another version of Firefox or the 32bit bridge libraries. Glad to see that this was resolved thoug

Yeah, right now I'm running Windows 7 on my desktop which is used only every now and then and my laptop is running Arch with XFCE. Have you taken a look at the fallback mode on Gnome 3? I tried it and it brought back the features I was used

It seems like gnome-shell is trying to do something new with the way I manage running applications. I also miss being able to switch to workstations using the arrow keys and creating and deleting workstations on the fly messes with my workf

Anyone else move away from Gnome recently? I've switched to XFCE and find the workflow better adapted to what I'm used to, I gave gnome-shell a month or two before I couldn't take it anymore.
