You guys haven't been keeping up the boycott, have you?!

Please!

A service that is not sustainable cannot be said to be superior.

As in each and every Uber ride is subsidized to the tune of a few dollars???!!!!

I look at titles and abstracts, not at journal names, in my literature searches.

I don't know if the authors are trying to avoid it, but what they are describing hints at a similar conclusion for the opposites of attraction: hate + racism

Easier to list who was not affected??!!

Nice: so many we's in the last paragraph.

Just avoid amazon.

It's really not that difficult.

Good idea to avoid amazon.

Did you try unsubscribing from all their newsletters?

The "study" is based on 20 test subjects.

Doesn't seem right to publish a paper based on such low numbers, especially when, as here, the experiment seems to be pretty cheap.

I guess that covers posting articles from the economist too?

Doesn't look too pretty, ugly in parts. Something strange about it. The ARN business looks very suspicious.

Maybe this is supposed to be pre-alpha?

Consistent with the Tim Bray blog article saying the validator's "implementation is kind of gross."

But then again: stay out of trouble, avoid Amazon.

In my experience, which is not too much, people who "home-school" their children, would better not be allowed to do so.

As usual: better stay away from Amazon!

Don't worry about the down-voters. They are just learning

Wonder if this could be a useful device in some other way (e.g. PC not responding)

You (down-voter) guys really are the hoot!

The short answer is, no, it's not vital. (That was easy)

Is it true or is it reactionary drivel? Come on.

Looks and smells like a well-funded marketing campaign. See also this comment, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12894370

IPv6?

Ironic. I don't think Slack is particularly well designed.

Use it every day. And it's always unpleasant.

Why does it say "New mentions" when I wasn't actually mentioned, just someone said something in some other chat.

Also, I find it pretty tedious to switch back and forth between discussions.

In terms of UI design, I suspect they don't have a good team.

Maybe it just tries to please too many people?

The 30% tax credit for solar installations may well be adjusted. These kinds of things are not so absolute.

Does a speaker count as a moving part?

They call it checks and balances

There are some here, https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/michelle.beaumont.html

Why now? The blurting happened in January.

Doesn't look good for them. See http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-09-06/hanjin-s-g...

But am not aware of reports about how things are for them this week.

I would not expect a university to teach git. Maybe the theory of version control systems, their history, or a comparison of different version control systems.

But not how to use the tool.

I didn't think “I cut, you choose” is that fair.

Since often it's difficult to cut fairly, so the other person gets to pick a bigger piece always.
