If you have a smart TV you probably want to browse the web on it.

It's so easy to access all kinds of information from home nowadays, it can be better at fulfilling my curiosity than going out.

Re:Evolutionary Algorithm: Evolving "Hello, World"

This is great. Nobody ever travels from airport to airport, yet every flight search engine insists that you enter departure and destination airport names instead of places you actually want to go to. How am I supposed to know what airports are nearby a place I've never been before?

Everyone seems to be overlooking the privacy issues here.
The main problem for me would be that even after I delete my account on some website they will still keep all of my data for one year.

If it's true I wonder if Samsung actually does that deliberately or were their production systems hit by some malware.

"I found the bug on 12/3/2010"
Date format used in US is probably the most unintuitive. At first I read that as 12 march 2010. Made me think for a moment that it took Google almost a year to fix it.

I just checked that. They only let you undo when you delete messages from Inbox, which is trivial because those messages are not deleted but moved to Trash.
When I clicked on "Empty Trash now" all I got was this message: "All messages in the Trash have been deleted forever."
