Same here. I don’t really care about what blocking ads encourage site operators to do, but if a website have too many ads or too intrusive ones, I just stop using it.
Same reason I refuse to play games with intrusive drms, instead of pirating it. If a company doesn’t respect me as their customer, I am no longer their customer.
it looks nothing like a raspberry, and a raspberry should be the easiest fruit to reconstitute from little spheres. I’d like to see a 3d-printed apple or banana using this process.
Also, anyone who compares Ewoks and Jar-Jar is a moron. The Ewoks actually fought, using old but useful weapons to help defeat the imperial forces. Jar-Jar was running away like a coward and accidentally destroyed an invading force in the process. Both character types aimed at kids? Sure. But they were nothing alike.
And the Ewoks ate the stormtroopers they killed. They're like gremlinses in mogwai costumes.
I know that the placebo effect exists and is effective, so believing something can heal me will indeed heal me. Therefore, I juste have to believe that just believing that believing will heal me will heal me, and it heals me.
To be useful, the system still needs to be able to tell whether a single user password is correct (and needs to do so reasonably efficiently). So if someone has a 6 character password (which is dumb) you can just try all possible passwords (there isn't that many possible 6 realistic character passwords). Either lots of them work (which would a problem) or you found the password.
No, as I understand it from the article, you can't tell if a single user password is correct, because you don't have a measure for "correct"-- all that you check whether that password points to the same place (in a multidimensional phase space) that other passwords project to. (It does seems to only work is you can assuming that all, or at least "most," of the other passwords people enter are correct).
So... how do you know if a user can log in? You have to wait until a bunch of users want to log in simultaneously?
Seed a torrent of it as an encrypted file named "porn.zip" or similar. You'll have it backed up on the cloud for free in no time and available for all of eternity.
Using an IDE doesn’t make you a bad programmer, but being unable to program without it shows that you’re not a really good one.
If I must make a bad analogy, I’d say it’s like using a cookbook: using one doesn’t make you bad at cooking. But a good cook is able to cook without one.

Having a low chance of contracting Parkinson doesn't mean you don't have a high chance of contracting one of the hundreds of debilitating or lethal diseases out there. You could also die before retirement from thousands of other causes.

The worst thing is that the scientology mytho isn't even his best work. He wrote some interesting science fiction, but the Xenu story isn't really SF. It's bad fantasy.

Difficulty act as a motivator, and helps developpers to focus. Most bugs I've seen (or caused) are on easy, boring tasks.

Following the end of Google reader, I built a custom web based replacement.
It uses drupal, with the feeds module to import the content, flags to tag it, ans custom views for display.
Dit works well for me, but as I stopped working on it it lacks essential features so I never opened it to anyone else (for exemple, there is no link to view all articles from a feed. When I need to, I change a 'new' to 'All' un thé URL.)
Then why is Chess considered a sport. Sports do not require physical activity, they require competition.
Because people are afraid of the word "game".
Chess is a game. Not a sport. Football is a sport and a game. Running is a sport and not a game.
Lemmings makes players act like psychopaths.

We’ll never know, none of the 7 google latitude users ever got within 20 miles from each others.
I’ve bought 4 cards to complete a badge (for ~10c each), but made a point to only use steam wallet money earned by selling other cards.
I wouldn’t spend actual money on it.

If your tech idea is "Be the next [whatever]", it is not a good idea.

Sorry can't be a hipster.. too damn old. I've been a Mac guy since errr.. like 20 years ago now.
So, you’ve been a hipster since before it was cool?
That's what happens you become a data scientist. They invent numbers out of thin air.
They won’t do that for long when there will be no air left.

It’s not the definitive product, but you can try it if you want.
T2 is an action movie with a bit of sci-fi. Terminator is a sci-fi movie with action bits.

If you follow the "source" link to http://www.slashfilm.com/legendary-plans-first-quarter-2014-shoot-for-warcraft/ , it appears the movie (temporary) title would just be "Warcraft".
It seems the guys at mmopage don't know their video games. What a shame.
