The idea that releasing the Q1 earnings after-hours allows people to make better judgments - they don't think "shit I have to sell all my stock RIGHT NOW", because they have a bit to think about it before the morning. Otherwise, you get a runaway effect, with some people selling early, people noticing the stock price dropping, and it starts crashing as more and more people try to sell before it "craters."

In theory, more time to react will smooth out your responses and make things less scary.

Or nab you on destruction of evidence. It's kinda a crime.

Those darn SJWs won't even let me marry an eleven year old girl anymore!

To be honest, I figured that it /had/ to be a bad ruling and spent a while trying to understand why it was wrong, just because of how they've been lately. Perhaps I'm just paranoid.

I dunno, that game sounds kind of incredible. I'd probably buy it.

I'm assuming that the suit really means "against white people" (race is a protected class), and we just got a bad summary, as usual.

They certainly haven't.

Greenwow posts as themself fairly regularly.

Is lowering business taxes not also a race to the bottom?

(Totally agree with you on infrastructure, though).

Hi, you must be new around here. See, you're posting on this thing that we like to call "The Internet" - a fantastical new device that lends you exchange your wonderful ideas with anyone, nigh instantaneously. It'll be seen by people all 'round the globe! No longer do you have to drive to Hong Kong to sell them your new book (love the cover btw), but rather, you can simply work it into barely-relevant comments in a desperate attempt to sell a third copy.

I'm excited for when they'll be able to focus their efforts on the javascript implementation - imagine transparently serving all the heavy-weight media assets for your site in a p2p fashion, without the user having to do anything besides click "Play" on the video.

And if you're not excited at that level; imagine being able to run an imageboard and use only a fraction of the bandwidth you currently do.

It's already pretty impressive, but the demos & writeup are certainly not user friendly at this point.

Not the programming language, "Ruby characters": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R... - annotations for East Asian languages that show how to pronounce a particular word.

Yes, there was this little thing called "The Great Depression" going on in 1930. Wasn't exactly a fun time, or so my great-grandparents told me.

I asserted that "an obsolete video format knowing that nobody uses DivX or considers it a viable codec any more" plays just fine, and it does. :)

burden of proof is on the person who made the assertion ("chromeos pants heavily when you watch a 1080p MKV on it"). :)
