I would rather the campus be located away from urban area. Less traffic, less driving...
Exactly! And living in the suburbs gives me the opportunity to tell kids to get off my damn lawn. The only lawn in Manhattan is the astroturf people bring out to let their dogs poop on.
So there's a link, but it is a little disingenuous to say he's suing to stop fracking. His suit (linked from TFA) is about the water tower. He doesn't want a high-rise water tower across the street. He's actually ok with a low-rise water tower that he can't really see from his ranch. So, over-react much, headline writer?
"That raises the possibility that the shrinking readership would eventually meet the expanding Beta suckitude, which emerges with a sudden blast of "fuck beta" comments. That black would allow any insightful commentary trapped in the black hole to escape, solving the infamous -1 Insightful paradox."
The evidence of that is the "all sites" graph which shows IIS's share increasing vs. the "active sites" graph which shows IIS's share plummeting.
I think the most interesting graph is the last: 1 million busiest sites. The downtick of Apache looks a lot like the opposite of the uptick for nginx. For busy sites, it seems nginx is separating from Google and IIS, but at the expense of Apache.
You are right, Kamen specifically didn't ask for more visas. Instead, he asked that the visa fees, at least in part, be directed to his program, FIRST. TL;DR: Give me money.
Partovi barely mentions visas, but also wants part of the fees to go to a new STEM education fund and wants changes to E-Rate (internet/telecomm to school libraries). He's got his fingers in a lot of pies, so skeptically I'm assuming one of them would benefit from unspecified E-Rate "changes".
Jona, a prof at Northwestern, basically wants more scientists to be involved in teaching STEM. No visa mention.
Cornwall, an ME, writes like an ME and doesn't mention visas; instead focuses on education.
So, yes, there's a lot of spin in the headline. Because headline.
Caching helped me a bunch. We have a little Mac mini and I turned on Caching service on OS X server. Works great for software updates, App Store purchases, for local Mac and iOS devices. It works much better since iOS 7, keeping those iPhones in check.

"lots of carbohydrates" doesn't mean "lots of bread, grains and pasta" - fruits and vegetables are a source of carbohydrates.
But what about donuts? Mmmmmmmmm... donuts.
The big advantage of this system is getting rid of the GPS DVDs, which guarantee your data will be out of date (or expensive to replace).
If they cannot communicate how it is feasible in an elevator speech....
Ah, but you forget, a space elevator speech is a lot longer ride!
Don't forget, you also have a front yard so you can yell at the kids from the porch, "GET OFF MY LAWN!"

No inline summaries. Less linkability than pinterest. Lame.
After reading about a "taco trove" I'm left disappointed. And hungry.
When you are older and have a resume, they don't bother with the stupid questions. They just ask you about code and projects.
I can't tell if it is true, or if I just don't tolerate stupid questions now that I'm older.
Which car company do you work for?
A major one.
At first I thought you wrote "Raze Texas" and was thinking, Republic of NASA?
From the opening statements, Congress allocates about $3 billion to STEM education already.

My definition of Tech Bubble: Your business doesn't have to generate revenue in order to grab an investment for a few billion.
This guy can sell himself as the next generation of Twitter: "We use BitCoin technologies to enable Scalable Microblogging" :)
I think you are confusing "tech bubble" with technobabble.
It DOES have a forward facing red LED that comes on if you record something.
Yes, there's no way that could ever be disabled or fail to work. http://slashdot.org/topic/datacenter/mac-camera-exploit-shows-spy-potential-of-all-peripherals/

The commander of Death Star 2 when Vader told him the Emperor was coming to inspect the project.
As a PHB, I learned a lot from the Empire. I'm looking forward to the new sequels where the Empire gets to win.
Garage fires aren't a very common topic on Slashdot.
But we do talk about a lot of dumpster fires.

How did the FBI confiscate someone else's funds, then?
They didn't take the money, they just took the data (and presumably the devices that data was on).
I wonder if you could pull a Walter White-style magnet attack... what happens if BTC wallet and keys is lost? Do the bitcoins just die?
Pictures or it didn't happen.
This!
