It's ironic — when Bill Gates agreed to port Office to the Mac nearly 20 years ago, it was seen as a lifeline for the beleaguered manufacturer. Now, Microsoft is knocking on the door of Apple's business and Cupertino seems disinclined to answer.

This conclusion absolutely does not follow from the sentence that came before it.

the biggest problem with this is when your algorithm won't fit the password requirements of one particular site. then you have to memorize that this one site has a specific password requirement which requires a different password than the algorithm normally generates, and often these sites don't advertise their password requirements when you login so you end up locking your account after too many password attempts.

Submission + - Opiate Maintenance Treatment is a Tale of Two Cultures (thefix.com)

yincrash writes: Opiate maintenance treatment is a tale of two cultures. People who can afford Suboxone get to keep their addiction private. People who are restricted to methadone clinics pay the price of stigma. Experts generally agree that Suboxone is more effective than methadone, but not by much. Studies have found that the recommended dose of Suboxone is better than low-dose methadone, but no better than high-dose. Yet methadone poses a greater risk of overdose and is easier to abuse. All things being equal, therefore, Suboxone is the preferred treatment. But all things are not equal, and most unequal is a patient's ability to pay.
