$0.75 per pill is super cheap especially for a novel treatment. What are you talking about dude?

None of the voice controlled devices I've ever used have been a pleasant experience (Google, Siri, various others). I don't think the tech is there yet personally. They might have it down for certain english accents but even as a

Well, at least there's that.

Interesting, thanks. In that first blog post it mentions that Meteor serves static files. Is that a requirement? edit: posted too soon they talk about it here https://meteorhacks.com/does-meteor-scale.html

The "running from a single box" at the end seems like it could be the most important part of the equation. Would you agree? Or rather, would that be the recommended place to start optimizing if your app runs into scaling problems?

Could you elaborate on why it is a pain to deploy? I've never used Meteor but I thought one of the selling points is ease of deploy, hot code pushes, stuff like that.

It's true. Their convoluted billing schemes belong in the "mislead the customer for great profit!" hall of fame, right up there with insurance providers.

Is there somewhere I can read about new dev tool features that have not yet made it to Chrome?

ah I gotcha. thanks for the link.

Exactly. Totally agreed on all counts :) Btw that is why I use the somewhat pretentious sounding "Written on my tablet" or "Written on my phone" in email signatures on devices like that in hopes that people will re-attri

Sorry, I understand that part. Was wondering what you meant by this (specifically the part about a "filtered down view of the world"): "I find this better even just for the fact that I don't get the filtered down view of

Just curious why do you use Canary for web dev?

What are you talking about? Totally lost after the first sentence here.

And I think you can leverage THESE criticisms at about 90% of software out there written in just about any language.

This is true but typos/misspellings/etc still reflect poorly on the author in most situations. After all, isn't the subject of this post a rather critical typo?

It doesn't work in that regard.

7.32 is a one line change btw, so the patch is same difference.

It's a framework. If you don't want to spend much time customizing it, your site will look like everyone else's who made the same choice. But it is very easy to customize and themes are becoming prevalent too.

It would be nice if they'd list the location but this is a great collection nevertheless. Looks like Google Car drove into some fairly hostile territory at times... That one of the injured cow (appears to have been struck by a vehicle

Not to mention HCWs are the ones treating patients at their most infectious stage. As the viral load increases, so do the odds of transmission. Unfortunately it sounds like this was probably the result of improper PPE doffing :( It depends

Intrusive: Depends on how sensitive you are about stuff like this. They're only going to be screening flights from the worst hit West African countries. It's a temperature check before you get on the flight, and another one after.

In the United States, a public hysteria would likely do more damage than the virus itself so this is a good idea even if it is just security theatre. I've heard that phrase uttered several times in this thread already. Do you guys all

Because fear (especially of death) makes people do highly irrational things. You could argue that it actually isn't irrational to lie in order to get into a 1st world country with 1st world hospitals. From a very selfish perspective of

It's pretty nice that ZDNet has stories from 1999 up still although I suspect that is not the story's original URL. (They've improved it for the benefit of Google's search engine since that time.)

It started as a way of annotating rap lyrics to explain the content to the uninitiated. Unfortunately, many of these annotations are flat-out wrong (not to mention many of the subject matters are more or less open to interpretation). So rig

A lot of this stuff is kind of... uh... drivel? Eg. sure, tons of companies would like to hire "only A players" But that isn't realistic. In my opinion, Genius is not as compelling of a product to work on as they seem to thin
