I suspect that if it applies in any way, programming itself would be considered the language and the particular programming language you use would be more akin to a dialect.

Not sure if Google is monitoring your posts or if their routing glitched before but doing the search just now gave me pretty much the same results on Google Maps... http://goo.gl/maps/fsfKF
Ask a friend or family with the required cable package for their login info. A more social than technical hack, but it works very well.
I don't particularly approve of their pricing, but to be fair the book could be downloaded many times over 3G in the future included in that initial delivery cost.
Not sure how I feel about this. On the one hand, it's nice to have these kinds of privacy laws in place. On the other, it seems arbitrary that other similar services for music, articles, locations, etc. don't have to play by the same rules. I don't see video as particularly different from any of them so I think either they should be similarly regulated or the law that applies only to video should be dropped.
What do you mean by this? I've always been able to send and receive texts through Google Voice in Canada, I can also call (only have it set up to call my gmail) using the web interface. What I've never managed to do is activate the app on my android phone to allow my send/receive texts there even if I couldn't do calls without a US phone number.
I don't know that I agree with "frightening". I would guess people watch baseball games on TV much more often than they go to them, thus a question that asks about "watching a ... game" would trigger the more common of the two.
It feels trite to reiterate so many other commenters but I really liked your take on Android development and would like to see more.
Can you recommend some of these games? I've been itching to try some new ones.
The problem is that the rules are broad enough that many sites could be construed to be breaking them leaving you up to Amazon's whimsy in enforcing them.
A lot of people are making him out to be too optimistic about his predictions. I agree to an extent, but no one seems to mention that the vast majority are remarkably accurate and only obvious in retrospect, hindsight bias can colour the many right ones as being trivial but I found many astonishingly clairvoyant.
Thank you, I kept expecting Googly to be some new product they were unveiling related to side-step the fight in some way or fight it.
I don't know that I agree, I really am not sure what "GIVING COBOL" means.
