SourceForge always sucked, and never got better: they had an obtuse navigation structure, a ridiculously hard-to-use bug tracker, terrible source code management and viewing tools, way too many ads, etc. etc. -- and they seemed to refuse to evolve, in spite of pulling in who knows how much money.
Exactly. Look what happens when you introduce a small dent into a metal tube under vacuum. Collapsing hyperloop tubes would become the new frat initiation "prank".
They're right about one thing: 25Mbps down and 3Mbps up *is* an arbitrary designation for calling something "broadband". Let's pick 10Gbps full duplex as our definition of broadband instead, before broadband access gets ruled a basic human right.
You're sharing the airwaves with everyone in range of a tower. Have you ever had success getting directions, much less watching video, while at a concert or conference with thousands of people in attendance? Faster speeds mean less congestion, among other benefits.
Example code, code snippets etc. -- basically all code on SO -- effectively constitutes a recipe. Recipes have been ruled non-copyrightable. Therefore code on SO is not copyrightable, and in the public domain.
It's notoriously hard to keep helium inside of anything, so the seal would have to be good -- and they would have to vacate the air out of the drive interior before filling it with helium anyway. So why not just leave the interior of the drive in a vacuum?
Ironic that this has been modded Funny, when the poster was completely serious ("A car joke! Funny!"). However, more to the point, the assertion that "doozy" came from "Duesy" has been debunked.
The unfortunate part of all this is that C++ takes 25 years to fully explain to everybody (while it continues to evolve, slapping band aid on top of band aid).
Tell that to the families of the passengers of Metrojet Flight 9268. (Granted, screening wasn't performed by the TSA, but there was some sort of similar screening in place there.)
If you read TFA, you'll know that for $9.99/mo, you get (1) YouTube Red, (2) YouTube Music, and (3) Google Play Music All Access. It's a pretty darned good deal compared to the competitors.
Women's education. It's not a technology, necessarily, but it will fix most societal ills that lead to the use of guns, both by the good guys and the bad guys.
Google Fi is pretty darned awesome. It doesn't have unlimited data, but it's a flat $10/GB (only pay for what you use), and you pay the same rate roaming in 60 countries, albeit at 3G speeds.
He also explained that one of the problems now is actually finding people to maintain Linux.
Linus would have a much easier job finding great kernel maintainers if he was civil, objective, patient and kind on the mailing lists, rather than critical, cynical, foul-mouthed, insulting and belligerent.
Google Wallet still exists (for P2P payments), but it was split out from Android Pay so that Google could strike up these agreements with the payment networks. Without removing P2P payments, none of the big banks or credit card networks would make it easy for Google to do NFC payments, because they are all building P2P payment networks of their own.
Mars' once-liquid core cooled and solidified long ago, so Mars does not have a magnetosphere. Without one, keeping Mars habitable will always be an uphill battle.
So what those people are probably saying amounts to: they are comfortable with what they have and don't want to learn something new...
...except that when Microsoft occasionally *forces* people to learn something new (e.g. when they released the ribbon UI for Office, or the crazy Metro UI for Windows), people swallow that pill anyway because they have to. What it really comes down to is that most people prefer living their lives in a catatonic/comatose state.

If the tube is going to be running from LA to SF, there's no way it will be 10mm thick, let alone 20mm. That would be far too cost-prohibitive.

Who's palace is this?
Chang'e's, obviously :-) (She's the Chinese goddess of the moon.)

Seems like it might be most useful as a random domain name suggestion tool.
Newsflash: chemicals used because of they harm insects end up harming insects.
I'm pretty sure the UN is the wrong level too. It's space.

Well-put. The same goes for the big bang.

Nothing like this *makes* a person meaner. It just brings out their true colors.

Except that probably something like 95% of Wikipedia views come from Google search results. So Google already *has* that click-through data.
Greatest country Uzbekistan.
