You used the words 'mindset' and 'undercurrent' to describe these sensations. Do the sensations occur visually taking space and having orientations? If you think of trigger concepts sequentially do the colors align to form a spacial sequence. Is there any way a normal person can understand what you 'see'? Anyone here who can add something on this because its a fascinating aspect of our consciousness.

I go through some form of that feeling everyday and have found that listening to that voice that keeps telling you how much you suck will only make things much worse. I have yet to solve the problem of regularly getting seduced by the idea that i am hopelessly untalented, which makes me feel entitled to laze around and waste whatever is left of my life. But it gets more powerful with each day that i waste.

At Apple minimalism is a black hole that sucks everything into a point. This adapter is more like a hobby project than something of real utility.

An open platform with the accessibility and raw power of a living room console can only lead to bold new forms of gameplay elements both in hardware and the games. A common argument made in favour of strongly controlled console markets is that it ensures quality, which i don't understand. I think good content will always find its way to the players no matter how crowded the market is with crappy titles. And Steam is not abandoning it's own storefront.

So Ed's comment was made despite him not being aware of the case's details. That didn't stop _you_ from going overboard on the thread in telling us what you think about how the JSTOR has been wronged did it?

Are candy/confectionery manufacturers supposed to feel guilty that they make stuff kids like and nag their parents to spend money on their products? Supercell has carefully designed the game to encourage impulsive purchases but that doesn't mean that the players are not deriving any pleasure out of it. And teens maxing out credit cards is something that can be easily stopped.

The hammock was never the same after fogus fell-out.

If the customers start sympathizing like that then they're going to stop listening to us and only act according to the other constraints you mentioned. If i go and buy a Pro Retina, the screen is the last thing i want trouble with, and if they fail in ensuring that it works, they should just replace it. Period. I don't give a damn about thresholds and whether im being 'reasonable' in whining or not. Maybe it's just me i want the best when i pay for it. Screw the shareholders and suppliers.

The reaction expected from you is rage, and not frustration and helplessness. I don't know of any other company that would kick its customers in the nuts and that too the early adopters.

I'm OK with Prismatic using information from twitter and any activity on getprismatic, and but i would not share the rest of my browser usage. For instance there was this day when i was reading up on XML on the browser and opened a bunch of pages on it. Then i fire up getprismatic and lo and behold! i find XML tagged suggestion. That was spooky;)

OT, Prismatic is impressive in the choice of articles it displays. So much so that i have noticed it's getting a bit creepy. On some days when i happen to open a lot of pages on a particular topic, Prismatic will start showing me related stories. So is it tracking histories? Do all such services track online usage?

Ek chori upar se seena chori. saalon sharam nahi aati tumhe hn par gand daal rakha hai.ab utar gaya ye post frontpage se achcha hi hua kyunki ispar comments ne mughe bahut embarass kiya hai ye yahaan par.kar lo bkchodi saalon. indians se vakyahi mein kuch nahi ho sakta. bejatti kara dete ho sab ke sab dikha di apni akal. The OP has posted it on the most credible forum online. Just do what you can do to help out and shut up.

This is great news and much deserved success for the superb team. I have lost count of apps that i deleted within five minutes of installing where one touch crm would have been of enormous help.

Why are there so many breakaway online courses why cant all of them just choose one format and platform. Coursera has a number of Stanford courses they could have chosen it.

The only course that is not significantly diluted is Koller's PGM. All others have been dumbed down to a degree where they provide no challenge to the courseree at all.

I am forced to browse the Indian app store through my account( I live in India), and i'm sick of the suggestions and the popular list since the people have a pathetic taste for apps here. I have to log out in iTunes and browse the US store to find quality apps.

It's amusing to see skeptical comments, but these are theorist who are held in very high regard by their peers and not many in the community would dispute their getting the award. The days of proposing easily provable conjectures are over. Now its almost exclusively high energy physics that is being probed.

I feel that as the physics gets increasingly complex to formulate, the prize money should go up too. And there's no better time to give away generous prizes than the highly skewed economy of today.

Is Mark Zuckerberg stealing our identities and storing it on disks too?

The really disturbing aspect of these blocking is the blatant manner in which websites which are known for their self-regulation (mainly for quality control) like Vimeo have been blacked out presumably by twisting the Chennai High court order against 'video sharing websites' by Copyright Labs, which seems to be a dummy company http://goo.gl/a1rjS . There is an alarming lack of internet literacy among the law makers and keepers who need to be educated on these issues so that such ridiculous incidents don't happen again.

That's true. We all do it in different ways to counter our own psychological quirks. To say that our social behavior is a reflection of our true tendencies would be a lie. A psychopath is more honest when he is acting one than when he is pretending to be like the rest of us. People are different from each other. Some more so than others. It's evolution at work. Acknowledge it and get over it.
