Wabbit season!
it takes probably 15 seconds total to take my phone out of my pocket, wake the screen up, tell the time and then put the phone back in my pocket.
You have vastly underestimated how long 15 seconds is. Go on, try it.
Now, a year later, Baton Bob has filed a federal lawsuit
I guess street performing didn't turn out to be the goldmine Bob was hoping for.
One thing's for sure, we can be absolutely certain he's not doing it for the attention.
It's a sad day for free software as one of the most ambitious free software projects, Improv, is officially dead.
How is an "open hardware development board" (how hard would it have been to weave that into the summary, by the way?) a "free software project"?
The Internet of Things Comes To Your Garden
Again with the "your." Unless the powers that be are going to force people to install e-Gnomes, the "Internet of Things" is not coming to my garden.
Couldn't you have shoe-horned that in somewhere a little more relevant? Or did you not even read my post?
Which is kind of remarkable, since the Achilles' heel of this documentary, as critic Matt Pais notes in his review, is that "everyone on the other side of this story, from the government officials who advocated for Swartz's prosecution to Swartz's former Reddit colleagues to folks at MIT, declined participation in the film."
It seems to be entirely unremarkable that a story told from only one perspective - presumably the one that shows the main "character" in a positive light - should get good reviews.
Tell it from both sides and you risk leaving the audience with unsatisfyingly ambiguous feelings about the whole affair; it's almost as if life isn't black and white!
No-one likes that in a movie.
Facial Recognition Might Be Coming To Your Car
I really hate all this "your" crap in headlines. It won't be coming to my car, because I already have a car and don't need a new one, and when I do get one it probably isn't going to have all this fancy-schmancy crap got-to-be-connected crap in it. It's not so much because I'm a privacy nerd, I'm just cheap.
It's an <a> with an href of "ahref=".

The source also confirmed that the display is on the inside of the wrist as opposed to the outside.
Who pays for the surgery to implant it?
Telling someone to STFU is standard fare.
Get one of these cards, and you can do it as many times as you like.
Yes... but that hasn't made any difference to the actual situation. British TV still is only ever 50Hz.
"25p" looking-stuff - higher dramas, films, etc - is still also all actually 50i (50Hz).
as are some movies (some are filmed at 48fps).
If by "some" you mean "three." And one of those isn't out yet.
AFAIK, GoT wasn't filmed at 60fps.
True. What you actually end up with (AIUI) is 24fps-shot video, pulled down to 60fps (interlaced) for broadcast - since it's preferable for channels to stick to one broadcast format rather than continuously changing depending on what they're currently broadcasting - which then gets pulled back up to 24fps by your TV to get rid of the pulldown judder it detects, and which you would otherwise see on your screen (due to the AA-BBB repetition).
Those words were used in reference to specific subsets that do not apply to me
They're clearly examples to clarify the submitter's question.
I don't use one language, I don't use one machine, I don't use one operating system, I don't use one editor and I don't program into any language with just one of those editors.
Surely, then, your answer to the question - "are text editors and various languages linked?" - is a simple "no," rather than "the question makes no sense!"
That is, of course, only if one assumes it is meant to be answered solely for oneself, and not meant - as it pretty clearly is - to cover the generality of programming around the world. Note also that the "linkedness" under discussion is a statistical property, not a binary one. You may not "program into any language with just one of those editors" but you might favour an editor for a particular language.
Before you snark
Too late, even before this post.
make sure you not only know how to diagram a sentence, but the logic in an article and a response to it.
Could we not just discuss it like normal humans instead? If I asked you to call me an ambulance, would you point out that you couldn't logically do so because I'm clearly not an ambulance, and then go on your way?
You'd be a shoe-in for an anti-Turing test.
