on: Yo Raises $1.5M In Funding At A $10M Valuation
The problem is that for the small percentage of texts that you only need to write "yo", there is a incomparably larger percentage that may need more than that. The Yo app removes functionality that native texting (or any number of WhatsApps and Facebook Messengers) already provide. Realistically it's like any other contact application: if you know people who use it you might use it, but I don't know anyone who uses it and I don't use it.

on: Node's nested node_modules approach is basically incompatible with Windows
The easiest solution I've found is to just run a VM and not sync whatever folder you install node_modules in. I just had this problem like a week ago with gulp because I was syncing the folder I was building in. It's a good time to learn how to use Vagrant.

Walmart is a profit maximizing company. Spending 4 billion dollars to save the government 300 million in food stamps is not ever going to happen.

The same Democracy that had Africans in chains on plantations. When the future looks back what side will Brendan Eich be on?

> many users have hundreds of archives adding up to several terabytes, but pay less than $10/month.
$0.25 / GB-month x 1000gb = $250 / 1TB-month

What? Just as Eich had a right to dislike homosexuals, everyone in the world has a right to dislike bigots. Unfortunately for bigots, it's a lot harder to defend that position.
