And yet the vast majority of parents are in favour of a ban.

Because it’s a lesser evil, at least in the UK, which has a reasonably well functioning government and society.

As much as it pains me, I’d rather have that than the brain rot being forced on young kids. And you can argue all you want about “parental control”, but there are too many parents who don’t care, plus peer pressure is a real thing.

I also think that at that age all the social media sites are a net negative.

Totally agree. I swapped about 2 years ago (work requirements), and I battle against the Apple keyboard every single day. I prefer the Android keyboard in every single way - it’s more intuitive, works better, more logical, significantly better auto-correct, significantly better text selection, much better prediction, and so on.

Everything seems so much more intuitive and just easier in Android.

For how good the Apple hardware is compared to the rest (especially MacBooks), the software really lets it down.

Putin and Xi must be ecstatic at the leverage this gives them.

It’s lower impact than most other sports (excluding sports like darts or bowls, of course).

There’s a reason that (i) professional golfers have a longer career than most other professional sports and (ii) many sports people transition to golf later in their career and (iii) there is a high preponderance of older players in golf.

So why the sneaky shitposting and stalking over such a long period of time? Just release the documents and let people decide.

I call bullshit on the "treasure trove".

You’re trying to defend yourself, but you still can’t stop yourself from casting shade on Codesmith multiple times in this very comment.

You have just proved that Lars is spot on with his analysis that you are an obsessive stalker.

I typically prefer somewhat deeper and more thought-provoking material, but I enjoyed this book. It’s a light page-turner, written-to-be-turned-into-a-movie type book. Overall, I would recommend it.

The performance on Lightsail is bad compared to DO - CPU, network, disk access are all much slower at similar price levels.

I can't help but feel that HipChat have somewhat got the rug pulled from under them. Yes, they have done ok in their own right, but they've missed a few tricks as well.

One of the most important for our team is the ability to be signed into multiple organisations/accounts at the same time. Slack handles this perfectly, and HipChat not at all. I don't think I've seen a uservoice request with more votes than HipChat has for this http://help.hipchat.com/forums/138883-suggestions-ideas/sugg...
