This doesn't work in the new Google Maps, only the classic.

>> what would the result of inhaling water be? drowning? you have many reflexes built into you to prevent you being okay with liquid inhalation.

THe point is they wouldn't need to exhale or inhale. They just hold their breath for a long time

Hey russ, Yeah, I know you couldn't on gmail or yahoo, but I didn't know that you are using domain specific rules. Thats great!

just a few example emails that are listed as invalid but aren't

"email with spaces"@gmail.com

"very.unusual.@.unusual.com"@mail.yahoo.com

"very.(),:;<>[]\".VERY.\"very@\\ \"very\".unusual"@strange.example.com

n@ai

Another server-side alternative is isemail.info, which does validate all of the above.

Could you perhaps be referring to smoots and beard seconds?

do go on.

The government will have access to a persons current status in other government programs? How does that compare, let alone surpass the government intercepting private phone calls and other communication?

I don't see any sign of angular - what makes you think that they did?

could you elaborate?

Just a note >> I do have is 8 thumbs and 2 thumbs

Not sure if that is a joke or a typo

If you are just trying to hack something together - don't worry. 1.8.7 has worked for a long time, and it will continue to do so for a while.

But if you are actually trying to build something to use long term - as crappy as it is to hear it now, it is not a great idea to use the system version of ruby. since it is likely as you get into ruby that you will have multiple projects which amy or may not require different subversions of ruby, you should always use rvm. it allows you to install multiple versions of ruby side by side.

Because searching for current events means someone is a homosexual? I really don't understand how this could possibly risk outing someone.

No, it didn't.

Unless I missed something, it doesnt - it says

>> cluster has 2,574GHZ of processing power

Which is true. It has that much processing power.

I imagine this move is because IE < 9 is being EOLed next year. At that point, it won't be getting security updates. Their new model of adding an IE plugin inside of chrome, rather than a chrome plugin in IE seems like it would be a lot more secure.

Also, this just means it won't be updated by google. Its open source, and im sure the community will continue to maintain it, and anyone who had it installed will continue to have it.

Looks as though they are making an IE plugin for chrome, rather than a chrome plugin for IE.

When I worked for a data center/ISP, there would be occasional government calls. The protocol was to get the persons name, then call them back through the official list of contact numbers (FBI, NSA, CIA, etc).

In what way is this sympathetic to the NSA's budgetary needs?

The (only credited) consultant is Thomas Knowles (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3240364/).

I don't think that comment added anything. If you could please keep any NSA related conversations in threads actually about the NSA, it would be greatly appreciated.

flagging == downvote, essentially.

It isn't a speech - its a reply to a question.

whats misleading about the title?

I don't think there is a reason to be insulting. If you are legitimately asking a question - don't be rude. If you just don't like it - use the flag.

Im confused as to what your point is - could you clarify?

I know multiple people who do. its a quick 'out-of-sight' place to throw something small like a purse or phone.

I think the issue is that to the average person, there is nothing inspiring about the linux kernel.

The space race created a large amount of respect for science/research in the public eye - something that results in more kids enrolled in science and math programs. The long tail effect of sending people to the moon is a lot hard to measure than KLOC.

Do go on
