It's actually Google Fart. Another casualty of autocorrect.

The Dart source code is BSD licensed, available on Google Code (hmm... I wonder when Google Code will get shut down...)

One of the contention points in the WebKit/Blink split was support for non-JS languages. Chrome (and Opera, Google's bitch) will, I suppose, support it, but Firefox, Safari and IE? Then again, IE used to support VBScript and PerlScript back in the day, so maybe Google could do an IE/Dart plugin.

Being killed off is better than the alternative -- forced integration with google+. Will they require you to login to google+ to run the javascript transpiler? Will they auto-post your error log to your google+ page? Will they remove the "+" operator (like they did with search)? Who knows!

PINE Is Not EMACS.

Strange conclusion. BeOS and NeXT both had professional UX experts but weren't successful on the desktop. Android was in the right place at the right time with the right price.

Didn't you say the same thing when Google bought YouTube ($1.65 billion, no revenue)?

It didn't happen when Patrick Leahy leaked confidential information.

97% of first posters agree that piss is frosty.

You also need to factor in time -- your stomach absorbs X oz of alcohol per hour, your liver metabolizes Y oz. of alcohol per hour.

I've seen a few bar/strip clubs in Canada that had a breathalyzer machine in the bathroom, next to the condom machine (WARNING: do not confuse the breathalyzer with the glory hole). For some people, it would have the wrong effect.

I think France now requires all cars (or drivers) to carry a disposable breathalyzer.

MADD? The first article says: Even safety groups like Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and AAA declined Tuesday to endorse NTSB's call for a .05 threshold. The second article says: MADD would not oppose the change, he said, but would pursue other remedies.

Of course, it would be counter productive to demand a 0.0 limit. Is .05 even drunk by any meaningful standard? The MADD representative they quoted in the article is Mr. J. T. Griffin. That ought to tell you something.

You know what else expires? Roundup's usefulness,

The backstory: Roundup is a weedkiller. It's also a plant killer. So Monsanto developed a soybean with roundup resistance. Lazy (uh, I mean efficient) farmers could just spray roundup everywhere to kill off the weeds.

If you've heard of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, you know what happened next.

So now you have roundup-resistant super weeds and farmers need to manually weed their crops. By the time the patent expires, there will be no advantage over heirloom soybeans (well, if you can even find heirloom soy beans).

Maybe, but beet juice is also used.

With shrimp, crab, and lobster, I eat select parts, not the whole thing. Let me know when grasshopper legs are the size (and taste) of king crab legs.
