Is going to be here soon. IPFS, ZeroNet, Maidsafe, plus decentralized DNS through Namecoin is going to take hold and these people won't be able to censor anything. Everyone needs to be playing with these technologies right now. They are going to try and silence us and retake control of your information stream.

It's ok. We've run this story through the Ministry of Truth Internet Submission Suite servers. Since every internet post now has to originate from the government servers, we know this is real.

Sonofabitch. I knew it! Do you have proof of this?

Nobody's happy. The world won't be happy with an Apple CEO until Steve Jobs resurrects from the dead.

I want you guys to succeed, and I realize that part of that formula is to serve up ads. But currently myself and quite a few others are using adblockers on slashdot because it's pretty crazy how much stuff is going on in the front page without blocking the ads. I'd be willing to turn off my adblocker for slashdot if there were text ads and they were integrated in a smooth way. Maybe a check box or something that we can flip to get a text-only experience.

Please keep it optional. I work in a place that routes all https through a single server which makes all sites that default to https extremely slow. All non https traffic is speedy.

GVim has existed for years.

Trademarks, and Patent law are jobs programs for the legal field. Along the way there are some successes. Same goes for the complex tax law.

People are craving real interaction. A couple decades of staring at screens and we all are realizing we don't want to raise our families by passing on the habit. There's value in gaming, the shared goal of competition. The problem is that we lost something during those years. The face-to-face personal interaction gave way to internet connected walls. No more humanity, replaced with avatars and emojis and the simulation of real human connections. Nothing shows the glaring difference from what we've become than a live game of poker. Where part of the game is to master the art of being human. It's why writers and directors think we'll still be playing the game hundreds of light years from here sitting abort starships across the table from androids and aliens.

Apparently version 3 of the API downloads the hashed list to the client side rather than sending URL's to mother Google: https://developers.google.com/... So I think I'm going to leave it enabled on my machines. This is reasonable and actually a fairly decent service if that's true.

Here's how to disable it. Not sure yet how this is implemented. https://support.mozilla.org/en...

Flooding the market with scores of high school kids who are forced to learn computer science is a great way to drop the average wages across the board. There isn't a shortage of coders. There's a shortage of coders who are willing to work for less.

They should really think about naming these planets (at least the Earth-like ones) alongside their Kepler designations. While there is the distinct possibility that we'll find thousands of these things, it would be good PR to have something to call it. The current names are tough to remember and don't do the huge discovery justice.
