While k is extremely terse, a lot of investment banks these days are using systems which utilise q and it's associated kdb+ database. q is basically a wrapper around k which makes it a lot easier to read and code in and which allows for sql-esque select statements from databases. This combination makes it far more flexible and useful for dealing with financial databases than straight k.
The S3 Mini packs nowhere near the same punch as the main S3.
480 x 800 resolution vs 720 x 1280 1 GHz Dual Core vs 1.4 GHz Quad Core 5 MP camera vs 8MP
It's very poor value for the money in my opinion, not even matching the specs from the S2 last year.
*I believe you mean the ~81% drop in the proportion of companies founded by Taiwanese immigrants.
The easy workaround for the moment would be to place a shortcut to maps.google.com on your iPhone home screen. Then you don't need to use the default maps if you feel they aren't up to scratch.
They were pretty shitty back when he first started but they've improved steadily, and he really does churn them out. And Redditors do love their novelty accounts.

The problem won't disappear anytime soon though, because even though the platforms will stop doubling in size, there will still be many millions of naive new customers every year who will see these apps and view $5 as a bargain for the slice of nostalgia promised.
What you're failing to consider here is that every user Halo 3 had paid approx. $60 up front to become a user in the first place. The problem with these free-mium games is that the average revenue per user is so much lower.
Yeah I was aware of this functionality, it's definitely far too clunky for most users though to go through clicking on that at the side of the page when most browsers now allow direct search through the address bar with the search provider of your choice.
Their search function is used more than Google's? How do you possibly arrive at that conclusion? The only instance where I would possibly use Facebook's search function is if I'm typing in the name of one of my friends. On the other hand, the main reason I use Google, and do so many times every day, is for the search functionality.
