Another thing I didn't notice earlier, after perusing the implemented RFCs: More Python-like array syntax:
[1, 2, 3]
['key1': 'val1', 'key2': 'val2']
We've been on 5.4+ at work for some time now and if I'd know that a year ago it would've saved me a lot of array()s and visual noise.
Even the veggie burrito bol is in the 800 range for calories, and based on how employees heap stuff on, much more than that. It's really two meals' worth of food. Even the highest quality starch and fat filled meal is still a starch and fat filled meal.
The health hysteria over aspartame hasn't really been fully debunked, there are still countless conflicting studies about the effects of aspartame, one of the more recent ones finding the metabolic effects of artificial sweetener to be the same as an actual HFCS-sweetened soda.
Soda may or may not be bad for you, but it's certainly empty calories. He shows a picture of Diet Coke but mentions Vanilla Coke throughout. Your parent comment is on the mark.
If you read the documentation a cycle is considered a full charge and discharge of the battery. It doesn't have to be discharged or charged fully, but when you've charged the full capacity of the battery and discharged that same amount, that's a cycle.
The cycle count is in System Information, as is the age of the system. Their own docs say it should get 1000 cycles before you're down to 80% of the original capacity. They have diagnostic tools to test it at the Genius Bar and measure the actual full capacity of the battery.
Wrong. The NRA is a powerhouse because they have the money to continue to persuade Americans to care about guns and the 2nd Amendment within their twisted, absolutist interpretation of it.
If you read between the lines it really isn't about a management style or structure, it's about treating human beings like fucking human beings.
Except for being locked into a 2 year contract with a steep cancellation fee.
If you're a more "serious" cyclist than you have the money to burn for more expensive, specialized equipment, not a middle of the road phone mount.
No, let's. If homosexuals should be allowed to experience their sexuality than why not permit them to fulfill their emotional, romantic, and other needs? It's such an artificial line to draw and we certainly can discuss both gay marriage and the legality of homosexuality in the same discussion.
Haha, the one time in my life having an outdated credit card on file paid off.
I think that says more about you than them.
As soon as I read she got her inspiration from a scripted reality show, I closed the page.
They do, except when it's a desktop-targeted image carousel with no support for touch events other than simple presses.
This city search is the worst one I've ever used. Devs, please test your sites, even the toy projects.

I watched the last two ST movies and it just makes me want to see shit explode.
Macs with SSDs don't need freefall sensors, and thus, no accelerometers.
Works great on my 2008-era Macbook.
This isn't new functionality, it's just that SMB2 is now the default.

Boston wasn't systematically shut down -- The call to stay indoors was voluntary. There were plenty of people out, plenty of pictures from people shooting photos of deserted freeways and streets. Not that I disagree with your overall sentiment.
A few cities do have Skyways or Skywalks besides the NYC example you cited. Two good examples are Minneapolis and Des Moines. And you're right -- it does negatively impact the street level businesses. It's really more about climate control in those cities, however.
In fact, it's statistically rare. Unless you mean that self-diagnosed wannabe celiac stuff.
I think this is a good example of why you can't just bolt on the UX from another site to a new concept and expect it to work. I looked at the page and just hit information overload.
I don't think going out to a bar with a group of women or your home situation can really approximate a hypothetical workforce of women.
You can, but they stay in the central photo roll.
He had a bad feeling about the place. It turned out to be true. What kind of place tries to blackmail someone into a job over an online pseudonym?
This is nitpicking, but the worst URL scheme is actually smb:
It's not. It's a serialized object.
Just a correction that the email address I received it at was
[email protected], not .net.
When GMail came out, it was 2004 and the Iraq war was in full swing. I watched the service launch into beta and then resigned myself to not receiving an invite, until I received an invite at
[email protected], a domain I had been squatting at the time, because it was hilarious. Hilarious, but that's another story.
Anyway, I was an everyday, average idiot, receiving an exclusive invite to what was sure the be the premier email service of all time. A gigabyte. Holy fuck. That is such an inconceivable amount of storage, etc. It really is, still. I've never come close to using even a measurable amount of it. Why even have a limit? I'm digressing here. What a cool story.
Anyway, instead of registering my own name, which I did, I registered [email protected]. To this day, it's basically radioactive. It receives an absurd amount of spam, even withe GMail's fantastic filtering, and why would I want to receive mail at [email protected]? If only I could ask my 22 year old self, because I sure as hell don't remember why that was so hilarious. Kid stuff. My very liberal girlfriend at the time didn't think it was very funny.
Every once in a while, I log into it, chuckle a little bit at some of the things people have used the email address for (mostly forum signups and Williams-Sonoma mailing list entries), and forget that I had registered the address for another couple of years.
I think the thing is that it was an email service that was launched by an already extant search provider, whereas before most email services had grown organically, beating out the land rush for Hilarious Email Addresses. That said, if anyone wants that email address, let me know. I'll take some fraction of a bitcoin or something for it, you fucking anti-semite.
