Well done guys. But don't forget to credit Bryant Cutler ( http://bryantcutler.com/ ) for the awesome logo. update: downvoted? why? I really think the guy should be credited. He did a fricking awesome job which CouchDB has based its whole i

"Currently, the specification only allows for a 100Mb/sec Ethernet connection, but the alliance claims HDBaseT will be scalable up to 1Gb/sec in the future. Similarly, HDBaseT can currently playback video at up to 10.2Gb/sec, but it's theo

The daring fireball article did say "sold". Other comments here have indicated that Verizon were giving the units away just to get rid of them. Maybe they didn't pay MS for those. Who knows what was in their contract. Maybe MS decided to sc

I don't believe that for a second. Most people I know can get any drugs they want, and yet they're not a bunch of drugged up crazies, just like most adults can buy alcohol whenever they want, and most are not alcoholics. Let people make the

How come it says tethering is new? Tethering has been available on the 3GS for ages, I've used it numerous times.

Pure fantasy. And you are completely ignoring probably the #1 source of anti-US hate - their proxy support of Israel. There is no Chinese equivalent, nor is there ever likely to be.

Yeah man. Maybe you should zoom out on Google Maps and see who lives nearby, especially anyone who might have (say) the world's largest standing army, and then come back and explain how it's a wise idea for the US Army to start seizing Chin

I suspect that the advent of nanotechnology is going to cause civilisation upheaval the likes of which we haven't seen since the industrial revolution, if ever. All this shit will happen, and much, much more. Hell, why limit ourselves to th

Oh. Right you are. I hadn't heard of it, but it looks interesting. Certainly a big time-saver to get all that for free.

Looks like the project web site also has a custom ticketing system and repo browser. Why not.

All this pain to drop $2.5k per year on a Nikon camera? Dude, seriously, just take a few months and learn some skills at something, then get a decent job using them. You'll be able to buy a new camera every freaking month . I mean I'm all

The whole point of the tax is to discourage consumption. If Ms W. Queen can't afford the tax to feed concentrated diabetes inducer to her little angels, then good! Success! Non-diet soda is almost as bad as cigarettes and we should tax the

the Chinese government doesn't care about freedom of speech Oh, I think the CCP cares very deeply about freedom of speech. Just maybe not in the way that you'd like ; )

by sailormoon 16y ago
That is utter hyperbole. Google never had the "freedom of speech for ~1.3 billion people" to trade. They do not and probably never will have anything like that kind of power. I am far from a Google fanboy but if you're going to criticise th

Care to provide some evidence that it is being done, ie. that artists are happy with the payment arrangement negotiated on their behalf with Spotify et al on the basis that it constitutes cheap advertising?

And what exactly is the point of "advertising" a song to people who, for all intents and purposes, already own it?

I think "the stick" is a pretty bad motivator overall Totally agree. Isn't one of the imputed advantages of American entrepreneurship over, say, European, that founders don't lose everything (money, social standing) when they fail? This

I recommend: 1. using branches as short-term scratch spaces for new features. Branches should not be long-lived and if they are they should be regularly merged, unless you are deliberated separating them for some reason (eg 1.x-stable, 2.x-

So have I actually, on some smaller projects, but it's going to be a major change to switch over larger ones. I'll be sticking on 2.3 with them for the time being.
