You might do well to clarify that you use MuscleWiki content with permission.

The way you phrase things on the site, I was left with the impression that you were in fact stealing the content while at the same time asking for donations, which is morally questionable at best.

I had to dig around in their copyright section before I found this:

Re:CSS Reference on Monday February 04, 2019 @02:34AM (#19074603)
A lot of the CSS properties documented on MDN (reference of all properties available [1]) come with interactive examples, for instance background-color and flex to pick two random samples. There are great introductions to CSS concepts in general on MDN as well (flexbox, grid).

Contributions to MDN are welcome. All you need is an account, and their reference reads more like documentation and less like an ad :)

Re:Microsoft Joins the Open Invention Network on Wednesday October 10, 2018 @01:00PM (#18186768)
Isn't that what they just did by joining the OIN?

> Keith Bergelt, OIN's CEO, commented on Microsoft's announcement in an interview: "This is everything Microsoft has, and it covers everything related to older open-source technologies such as Android, the Linux kernel, and OpenStack; newer technologies such as LF Energy and HyperLedger, and their predecessor and successor versions."

They encrypt in transit, but not data at rest by the looks of things. At least I don't get that impression.

About resolutions, different resolutions can serve different bandwidths. Not everyone can stream crystal-clear HD at all times.

Posting Google's web cache, since the site appears to be down:

https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:l14kPB...

The title seems a bit misleading.

> We did the testing on the basis of the rules that came in December. After that, some changes were made to the rules. Those changes we have absorbed now, so there is no time to do beta testing for that. Other than that, we have done all other tests. So, we are fairly confident of the system.

Not saying the project and testing has been managed perfectly, but there has been time for testing unlike the title suggests.

Any large project will have bugs, especially with late changes and additions such as the ones described in the article. At least they plan to make relatively swift releases of new versions.

Re:Google Duo, a simple 1-to-1 video calling app on Tuesday August 16, 2016 @02:50AM (#12295943)
Actually, video calling can be useful for those without hearing. Being able to use sign language in video is a useful alternative to texting.
Re:Why subscriptions are the future of journalism on Wednesday January 13, 2016 @11:30AM (#10895471)
A pay-per-article would be a better fit for me as well.

Blendle [1] has had success with such an approach in the Netherlands where they have brought on board quality publications, letting users pay per article. They also let users ask for refunds if an article is not what it seemed, which punishes clickbait articles.

Re:Norwegian butter crisis (2011) on Wednesday May 20, 2015 @06:42AM (#9575454)
It's not illegal, but dairy products are generally taxed heavily to allow Norwegian products to compete on price. There may be some special permits required to import, I don't know the specifics.
