I agree with this post. A $200 million failure clearly refutes the first portion of the sentence: "Concord wasn't a bad game, but it just didn't generate enough interest with enough players". Heck, where I work, a $200 million failure would have someone sent to jail.

I'd be fine with this. Recently Audible removed a book from my library and essentially told me to kick rocks. I'd listened to it when I first got it, and although I wanted to go back and check something in one of the chapters (which is how I found the book was no longer available), it's not the end of the world: it's just $15 they stole from me.

I'm glad you got to have kids and watch them grow from birth. I never got to do that; I married a gal and the boys were already ten and eleven years old when I entered their life.

I agree. I think a second benefit could be that interested high school (or college) students now get a data source that doesn't change locations from administration to administration. It is mildly frustrating to me that many government websites simply change where things are each year. Worse is when a department goes through the amazingly beneficial operation of name change. /s

Apparently this was a new test, essentially A B testing. The only difference in the two sets of email were that one set had links to ActBlue and the other set had links to WinRed. The complaint is that the WinRed linking emails were marked as spam but the ActBlue linking emails were not.

Unfortunately only registered an actual account quite some time later, otherwise my UID would be way lower.

Funny how it was the link about Steve Ballmer being fat and bald that won me over to look at that strange site they were parodying.

Yeah, everyone acts as if it were super important to only hire the most excellent people, but the truth is that a satisficing approach is a lot more efficient. Hire for attitude and train for skill. It is all just a giant lottery anyway.

If it were the bar of Andreas, it would have an apostrophe after the s. And that would be a correct apostrophe, not a Deppenapostroph.

No, they are not. The fork is female and the spoon male in German.

When I learned French, one of the hardest things was remembering gender of French words because they often differ from the German ones. Car (female in French, neutral in German) or the sun (male in French, female in German) come to mind.

I used to like Mike and his website and purpose in life. Heck, I was even in the coffee club or water cooler club or whatever you call the small monthly donation club. But then he went full TDS and I gave up on him and his causes.

Cute.

What does NTFS do that modern file systems do not?
