I don't necessarily disagree with you, but provisioning 16-32gb for a production server doesn't seem to be unusual these days and the cost negligible...
<Insert electron/slack joke here>

Presumably "the industry" ≠ "lisp programmers"...

I think the technical term for this is "Passing the buck"...

It's interesting that the "Privacy Controls" seem to only change how you see the data they've collected about you, but doesn't seem to change how or when they collect data about you. That doesn't sound like privacy control at all!

How so?
cag_ii | 8 years ago | on: OLPC’s $100 laptop was going to change the world
You're conflating two different problems. OLPC was never meant to replace food (or other necessities).
Additionally, having a dictionary, spell checker and encyclopedia at your fingertips make a laptop a great addition to a classroom.

I'm not sure I understand your question.
The submission links to an article at fox13memphis.com. The user I'm replying to suggests a "much better" article at seattletimes.com because it includes content which I'm pointing out is already contained at the submission link.

That's in the article linked.

According to the wikipedia page, Very similar actually!

The images in the article had me thinking otherwise.

It's definitely a "marketing page" in that it's only purpose is to convince people to support sb-827.

I was replying to the comment above which pointed out correctly that the order in which the server receives the requests may differ from the order in which they were sent.
cag_ii | 8 years ago | on: Show HN: A CSS Keylogger
My mistake, I guess I didn't really think that through...

What does "SKU" mean in this context?
cag_ii | 8 years ago | on: Show HN: A CSS Keylogger
It'd be simple enough to add an 'order' identifier (request timestamp, etc) to the requests.
Edit: nm. My mistake, not as easy as that using only css!

Cool! After reading this article I clearly remember buying "Kung-fu shoes" in DTLA/Chinatown as a kid, they were a couple of bucks a piece and probably my favorite shoes at the time.
I also clearly remember they did very little to protect your feet from the black asphalt playground heat in the middle of summer, lol.

I'd expect preventive care is a lot more about ones own routine vs. what the dentist does.
cag_ii | 8 years ago | on: Keurig to Acquire Dr Pepper Snapple in Largest Soft-Drink Deal Ever
From the wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr_Pepper#Marketing):
In the early 1960s, Dr Pepper promoted the idea of
serving the drink hot with lemon slices in winter.
This idea appeared in the film Blast from the Past
initially set in the early 1960s.cag_ii | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: Which programming language has the best documentation?
I would have to say Java. Between the tutorials, Language/VM specification & library Javadocs, it's the most thorough I've seen to date...

Why wouldn't you just reference `window.location.href` when needed, instead of wrapping it up in `currentUrl`?

I seem to remember Java Applets & Java "Web start" (or pretty much any browser "plug-in" runtime) causing a fair bit of grief for end-users...
