I feel like the Chinese are doing it right. Chinese traditional medicine is deeply ingrained in Chinese culture, but they have no hesitation in adopting western medicine when necessary.
Traditional medicine for prevention and getting people to regularly pay attention to their health and see doctors.
Modern medicine for those times where there is no herbal treatment.
Best of both worlds.

The balloon boy story was pretty much fluff anyway, but they quoted twitterers and redditors.
Why do something manually when you can do it automatically?
I agree that the approach isn't useful for something like pill schedules. I think the intent is for general events. Something more along the lines of "Went to the park with grandchildren in the afternoon", "Saw old friend today", "Celebrated 87th birthday at favourite restaurant", and "Witnessed beautiful sunset last night".
I do hope for the death of the fad of using videos where a perfectly good blog post will do.
I thought that's what slashdot comments were for?
And if you did have a braindead tripwire like that, it would have jumped on the fact that fuck is in the url in the summary.
Neither me nor aedes work for reddit. We were simply reporting what was known at the time to prevent further spreading and panicking users (people were thinking they were going to get banned for spamming, worrying about loss of karma, et cetera).
The admins acted within an hour. KeyserSosa is an admin, his username is highlighted in red and has a [A] next to it.
Back in the old days, there was a mod button at the bottom of the screen. You had to mod all your comments in batch.
Lower ranked comments were hidden separate "Too many comments" pages and if you clicked one of those links to read them, you would lose all your mod selections. When I got Firefox (Phoenix at the time), tabbed browsing made the process so much easier.
It actually works the same way if you read it forwards.
Almost as soon as people realized there was something strange going on, the programming subreddit started discussing the code.

According to these guys, movie data's usefulness recedes as more sophisticated data mining algorithms are implemented.
Since they are part of the winning team, there's a good chance they're right. (They could also be lying about it to throw off the competition, but I believe they are required to publish their method so we will find out.)
Yes, this is an appeal to authority, but I only did it because the authority in question claims to have access to strong evidence.
Was it a good book? Title?
Regarding TLAs, the acronym is a euphemism to mask the true intent.
Digital Restrictions Management
No acronyms. When educating people, we need to be clear, concise, and accurate.
This is not insightful. The whole point of threads is so that we can branch of and discuss things related to other posts. Just hide the top "health insurance" thread and move on.
If I understand, that's just for the right to not be sued for broadcasting the music. Broadcasters still have to pay to buy the music, for bandwidth to stream the music, hardware to do that, people to select music, build websites themselves, manage online communities, manage advertising relationships, etc.
AND that's the minimum. So if you have zero listeners, you have to pay $25 000 per year just to start.
Happiness is twin floppies.
