WP 8 and 8.1 are WAY better than WM6. Have you tried using a windows phone lately? It's actually a very good experience. Even Apple fanbois are starting to convert.

What do you expect the executive branch to do, if not to execute?

The parent to my post said

I thought that applied only to small companies that were indistinguishable from their owners and their families

which does not make any distinction about a business being privately owned. So, I don't see why you would make that distinction in this context.

The reason no one heads to Canada for medical treatment is that they wouldn't be covered and would have to pay out of pocket.

Seems obvious, doesn't it? Yet still posts like the GP show up all the time...

Reasonable grammar is for conformist sheep!

I'm guessing the reference is to Hobby Lobby, which is not really a small business.

I want to agree with you so badly but this line is unforgivable:

You wrecked the economy, crushed the housing market, and saddled me with student loans that can never be forgiven and that will garnish my wages even after death.

I don't know who you think "you" is but when I'm reading it, it's me, and I resent that you would try to blame me for these and one of them, I resent that you'd try to blame anyone other than yourself. It's unfortunate you took that approach because the rest of your post was fairly reasonable.

Doesn't this artificially inflate album sales for U2? I mean, it sounds like iTunes has record of millions of customers "purchasing" their new album. Sure, it was $0 but the charts don't ever talk about how much the average price for an album is.

Um... The summary talks about fitting this on people out of jail on parole. Those (generally) aren't cops. The idea of putting it on cops themselves is an afterthought in the summary.

Yes, but it could have a large effect considering the small number of vehicles that need to be affected, which might make it more reasonable.

That was a GREAT answer!

I agree with you, but that doesn't mean I think they shouldn't make & market them. Who knows, maybe this will turn into something I find useful in a few years. As for now, this is overpriced for its capabilities and I don't like the extreme level of vendor lock-in we're seeing here -- but other people won't mind those factors and they are welcome to be the guinea pigs!

That may matter to the 5 people who watch MSNBC...

I want to agree with you so badly because the GP is an obvious troll... but... Don't have to wait to do what until your kid is dead? There's no vaccine. Are you suggesting everyone should take their kids for asthma therapy right away?

And THAT is why it's news. Because it's a surprise and we are caught unprepared for it.

"1" + 1 in Java or C# will give you 11 just like it does in Javascript. I don't understand why Javascript is getting blamed for this one.
