Yeah, but part of that is like trying to justify the purchase of a Lamborghini financially. Driving a Tesla is a fashion statement as well as a car, as are most $80k cars.

So why is the fact the car isn't a convertible factored into your reasoning?

Unless of course that creator is not the one who you pray to... then you'll look pretty stupid too.

I for one don't care what I look like. My beliefs give me the comfort I need without the need to enforce them on others. Should I find myself looking silly on judgement day, my response will be "well you sure as hell made it pretty hard to logically believe in you over all the other options".

Not really. It's because the raw code is his own IP, more than likely built on a codebase/libraries of his own design and/or containing other commercially interested parties who's data cannot just be released to the public willy nilly. /. is supposed to be full of programmers, I thought it would be obvious why. It says it in TFA.

Erm, subharmonics?

Unless you prefer your baritone without any bottom.

That is very wrong, in fact most professional recording equipment does not roll off at 20khz, it rolls off far higher to avoid touching the frequencies below 20khz, if it rolls off at all.

For example, my mastering EQ actually gives you EQ bands up to 34Khz, and my Interface samples all the way up to 192khz.

Take the average man away from his home and into the unknown and he will eventually seek home comforts. I very much think that meats in that time was akin to coffee, Coke, chocolate,TV and many of the other creature comforts that man would fight not to give up at his own expense.

It was no a lack of common sense, it was a lack of logic, and humans are already notorious for being illogical.

In other words, they took cues from Apple too much. Which is a shame really because winphone and iOS are great in the UI department but their execution isn't quite so on Win8.

Yellow is instinctively a high visibility warning sign to our minds, second only to red on the warning scale, yet brighter so more visible in the night or dark spaces. That why the most color of warning tape is 'bumblebee colors' (yellow and black), that is why Hi Visibility jackets for construction workers are bright yellow or acid green (i.e green with a high yellow content) and nearly all hardware used in and around places like construction sites are bright yellow.

As for what safety function it serves, the preservation and identification of the multimeter in the first place is a pretty big one. Leaving it somewhere it should not be (car engine, electrical substation, demolition plant) is a hazard in itself when you factor in that these are £400 a piece, professional pieces of equipment used in pretty much the most hazardous situations... and not your £20 model from the store.

About perfect timing for the entrance of those sugar powered batteries isn't it!

Every single contact in your smartphone contacts list is scraped and delivered to Facebook, Google, your Cell provider, your hardware manufacturer (in the case of Apple) and the NSA/Gov't by extension. If 50 people have you in their contacts as Alvin the mechanic, and your email is attached by cross reference as well as your LinkedIn, Facebook and G+ that all give positive face recognition matches, you can bet your bottom dollar that all the gov't need is that meta data to know exactly who is doing what.

And your phone is always connected to the internet, just a small walled off subnet for all the dumbphones. It's still the same thing if you are a provider however, scraping that metadata is beyond easy.

The entire connector on an iPhone is non standard so it's still progress to transition it to a standard.

What he is referring to is the fact that in nearly all cities in THE WORLD - never mind the US - have a commercial core, where housing is very much unavailable or extremely expensive I.E apartments above the high streets, casinos, and shops. Then right outside that commercial core, sometimes even within walking distance, that's where all the bad areas reside. Of all the surrounding areas, you will have one or two that all public money has gone into, and that will be the one place that is not ridden with crime and social issues. In London that place is Belgravia and Chelsea, and they are currently trying to do that to an area called Camden with gentrification due to lots of poorly judged foreign investment from China causing London prices to become absolutely ridiculous.

But those are only really good solutions if Facebook intended to actually keep a completely clean nose. I'm afraid the track record doesn't support your theorems.

Yes but does Facebook need to do that? No.
