I think this SMBC comic is very appropriate as well: http://www.smbc-comics.com/?id...

Since I doubt that this sub-question will get through the editor, I'll give you my answer now. My objection was to the use of bitkeeper due to its license. This is not the same as being in favor of violating the license. What Tridge did (invoking the "HELP" command on a TCP stream connection to the bitkeeper server) was not a license violation.

It's up to the editor when they run the replies. But I promise to answer mine.

Yes, I will answer the interview questions as soon as the editor gets them together.

The post says the total number of exits is fixed. You're just shuffling the order of the queue. A limited benefit, if any benefit at all - the people in the general queue will wait even longer, with more breakdowns and medical emergencies as a result.

The astrophysicists at Adobe told me that it looks 'shopped.

If you can afford it, your computer's RAM should be maxed out to 640KB.

Every day at noon they compare it to the sundial out back.

... but they will still have to manually adjust for DST twice a year.

Just to be clear here: the devastation is all due to the tsunami, not to the reactor failure. Foreign media seem to often forget or ignore that the disaster was the earthquake and tsunami. That's what killed almost 20k people dead and destroyed the homes of many hundreds of thousands of people.

We picked up a new car in September. Everything we looked at had cameras and they weren't super-expensive like a Ferrari. Granted we didn't look at Kia or the like. You can't see cameras when in traffic.

What cars don't have rear view cameras these days?

Big car makers and the oil industry will hammer on these weaknesses to show people how untrustworthy the Tesla is. Hell, they'll probably try to make one rear end an old Corvair just for the lulz.

Hitler had charisma in spades. He loved dogs and even had a girlfriend.
People always forget about the good things he did.
