Nah, he just wants to buy up more MSFT and he's trying to set a trend to drop the price short term so he can get a better deal.

Wait, so he's saying that he's moving from MSFT to AAPL because AAPL has better lock-in? Personally, I'm staying with MSFT because MSFT has already learned the follies of relying on lock-in and is moving on where AAPL is repeating MSFT of the 90's mistakes.

"repeatedly"? Source? I've worked in Amazon warehouses and they are far and above any other workhouse job in terms of both safety, pay and workload required. Granted, I only worked at 2 different Amazon warehouses so my sample small is probably smaller than yours.

based on this, it shouldn't take more than half a day under the worst circumstances (single EBS drive with crappy performance), and if you Raid together enough drives, you can do it in about an hour. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you pay for EBS by size, not physical disks, so the more you can split up your data in blocks, the more performance you're going to get.

I prefer Anonymous because it it's legible at low resolutions. Any font can take advantage of high resolution, it opens up a lot of freedom to the artist.

Any idea on what it actually does? How does it detect "danger"? It seems more like an attempt to co-opt internet freedom movements than actually do anything at all.

Windows had disappearing scroll-bars since the early 90's. It was called scrollbar.display=auto.

Looks like Apple wants to spend its billions in profits on lawyers. Almost everything on the iPhone exists as prior art. I can't really think of anything original on the iPhone other than the unification, control and polish. I think Apple realizes this is not patentable.

reddit is still a great site once you remove the default subreddits and find some of the more active but smaller subreddits. /r/truereddit regularly has in depth articles that are still accessible to a general audience.

Science subreddits with a cognitive barrier to entry like /r/neuro are a great source of news specific their scientific communities. Geographic subreddits such as /r/[yourmetro] are also a great way to keep in touch with the general vibe and events of your city.
