> You're welcome to do that. That's assuming you have the power to press a key and duplicate data that comprises a home and materialize it for your use. I'll even throw in a housewarming gift basket and a helping hand.
Okay, I'll take you up on your offer. Can you please set up a server where I can download a disk image of your desktop computer? By one press of the button, I can have a copy of your "house"... no harm to you, right?
Let me just have every piece of data you own... just a harmless copy... just because I want and value it.
It's a lot different when it's your things people want versus other people's things.
You are living in this entitled fantasy world. How do you believe this doesn't effect film studios? Everyone who pirates a film is someone who could have been a paying customer. Instead they choose to break the law. An alternative option is to not watch the illegal films!
Either don't pirate, or pay for your media. People shouldn't steal.
Maybe they should be patient and wait until the films come into the public domain if they're too cheap to pay.
He argues that somehow piracy caused innovation in the music industry, and thus the piracy of hollywood will somehow usher in a new era of innovation in streaming video. In some respects its true that Napster brought about innovation in digital music... BUT IT HASN"T STOPPED PIRACY!
There is a ton of more streaming options today, which is great for lawful netizens, we do have a lot of great options. But that doesn't excuse pirates from ethical obligations.
You don't have a right to someone's property just because you think you should.
Maybe I should just take refuge in your fancy-house just because I think it would be morally just because you have a nicer house than I do.
Thats essentailly the argument pirates make, and it doesn't hold water.
Its not necessarially that I "need" a skeleton. If I needed to, I know I could do it all manually. I have manually configured a Node.js app before. But wouldn't it be a lot more prudent use of my time to start programming instead of doing project set-up, when I'm learning a new programming paradigm? Why do you think we fork repos?
I'm glad this thread found its way here today. I was just Google-ing for something like this, just a few days ago. Thanks HN community :) Time for me to choose who to fork...
I think it looks sharp. But the monotonality, or lack of contrast within the layouts blends elements together, so I would find it difficult to read and interact with for an extended period of time. It is very cool, I especially like the Grid Forms -- those are so sweet.
On a related note, I believe there is also a hardware problem on the iPhone 6 plus' 4G LTE radio for ATT. Same network, but my old nokia 1020 had a much faster network connection. This is annecdotal, but there are reports in other forums also.
This is such a gem. It feels good seeing a tech giant asking a beginner-level question like this... It alleviates any tendency towards imposter-syndrome.
So the only usefulness of this product is that it provides a feeling of nostalgia, and smug belonging? (Like you're cool now if you have a tilde.club page?) Thus we cannot invite lots of people to the tilde.club because... we're just too cool for them. I predict #Fail.
I haave used Google Now briefly with the Moto X. It is definitely faster than Siri in my experience. Speed is so important when it comes to these virtual assistants. I sincerely believe Siri is the worst of the bunch, which really stinks because I expected a lot more from a 900$ iPhone.
I believe Cortana would get that info back in less than a second. It seems Siri takes more than a second for me just to activate, before it even begins listening... Maybe this is an iOS 8 issue for the time being...?
FWIW, I just switched from Windows Phone to iOS -- from the 1020 to iPhone6+. Personally, I preferred Cortana over Siri. And it basically comes down to speed and responsiveness. Cortana is much quicker to launch, and much quicker to find results. I haven't noticed any discernable difference in their query results. And actually, for one of the my most used queries - "What is the weather today?" -- I dont even use it on iOS because the stock weather app is disappointing, I use Yahoo. Cortana telling me the weather was much more usable. Siri is just so freaking slow, that I rarely use her.
I believe there is a medium between the two. Keep your data structured, then when you're satisfied with the content, paste it into in-design and work on the layout.
I think it is a lot easier to manage the content in your resume by keeping it in a structured document such as TeX or Markdown. If you manage your resume in a word document it gets messy, plus if you use markdown or TeX you can use Version Control to track or rollback the changes you've made to your resume... its very useful.
