May I ask which netbook you have?

I think you are being generous. I really think that's what it was about. It actually is the Occam's Razor explanation.

Do you really believe that the professor said they are not allowed to consult each other in person but may consult each other online?

That sounds like conjecture to me. I mean it sounds good but ultimately it's just a story you came up with retroactively.

It's still a marketer.

I see what you're saying, but doesn't somebody, somewhere have to look at it to make sure it is CP first?

Wow. Just wow. The Microsoft redesign that was submitted a month or so ago was.. okay. But this is absolutely horrid. When they got rid of the nod to all the other languages it couldn't be saved.

Great interview and it makes me respect Schwartz even more. It takes balls to admit to mistakes at the level he was at, too.

I'm not sure why you're being downvoted. It's pretty much spot on.

Right. Think counter-terrorism.

I find it really hard to care about this. I'm amazed other people here seem to be up this in arms about it.

I don't see what's so wrong with what Facebook did. Go after college students. They probably wouldn't mind obsessively checking two social networks anyway.

Oh my lord I'd maybe be okay hearing that at a club but couldn't imagine coding in one. Give me downtempo to work to any day. R.I.P. DJ Dusty's Afternoon Nap.

Please enlighten us as to what's the thing now and any internet radio stations playing it. I'm always curious as to what's current elsewhere.

You didn't answer the question.

>Also, if your degree is in English, the best I can do is point you here [Tired, old, and stereotypical Starbucks link Hurr durr].

Really? Was that necessary? Why can't someone with an English background learn to code especially with burgeoning fields like NLP.
