Could the problem with the damaged brand be a reason why Apple is so keen on becoming a "privacy-as-a-service"-company?
One viewpoint is that the USA are a crutch to the rest of the world.

Another viewpoint would be that this is based on self-interest.

The USA bombing Iraq because Hussein wanted to sell oil in another currency other than the USD and leaving the so called rest of the world with the humantarian crisis would be one counter example to the crutch-theory.

Re:Your birthdate in the decimal expansion of Pi on Wednesday June 11, 2014 @06:55AM (#7877289)
Maybe of interest for some of you: http://baby.pirthday.com/ 8 days until the perfect creation date for your ultimate pi-baby (born 3/14/15).

Other essential services are: your age in pi (http://pirthday.com/) or seeing who has his pirthday today (http://happy.pirthday.com/). Disclaimer: Logo has been created by a friend (@turboele), other stuff by me.

In addition to this excellent post, try to use the five minutes rule. When you need to tackle an undesirable task, tell yourself that you'll try it for five minutes. After you got started, you will lose the five minutes mark out of sight and you already mastered the hardest part - getting started.

Thank you guys for the clarification.
Re:Bitcoins: The Second Biggest Ponzi Scheme in History on Sunday December 01, 2013 @09:15AM (#6827323)
This is maybe a stupid question but what does it mean to be Austrian in this context? Is he born in Austria or is this a reference to the Austrian School of Economics?

Re:Bowery – The Next Generation of Web Development on Tuesday September 17, 2013 @04:24AM (#6398205)
A calculator would probably help. How about showing some sample setups (and their resulting costs) for different kinds of webapps?
Re:Bowery – The Next Generation of Web Development on Monday September 16, 2013 @11:44AM (#6393810)
The documentation looks nice, but the pricing page is just confusing (at least for my colleague and me).
