Well, TSA will start checking marathonists anytime soon.

Ban me or whatever you need to do but the reality is that one bomb and Americans cry, while at the same time incentivate thousands of bombs and deads in Mexico for their useless "war on drugs" and also creating pointless wars around the world (eg. Iraq)


Classless.


You are making political excuses for murder.


Please learn the massive difference between "excuse" and "reason".

It drives me insane when people try to explain something, and someone replies, "oh, that that excuses it, does it?".


Mass media focus on drama not in information; so your emotions are appealed more than rational thoughts.

You can't do nothing about the North Korea crisis even if you watch the news, that's a "Reality check".


That's right, jQueryIsAwesome, jQuery is awesome in Palo Alto.

And you can do nothing about North Korea. And you don't care about North Korea, because the only thing you care about is Palo Alto, its organic restaurants, its girls, and, of course, jQuery.

But NK isn't going away. And you, American kids, can stick your heads in Palo Alto sand, and assume that all is good, and by not knowing what's out there, you will make yourself happier.

Happy happy joy joy!


I'm Colombian, like, live in Colombia/South America.


Billions of dollars are wasted to fight against a analgesic and therapeutic drug that could help millions; this world haves very dumb and/or corrupted people in charge.

It's not the cure-all you think it is, regardless of the douchebags in charge.


Really? Have you had extensive, first-hand experience with Rick Simpson oil? Are you prepared to tell me there's zero medicinal benefits to it?

Listen, there's just not going to be scientific proof behind a mostly illegal substance with legions of powerful people incentivized to stop it from growing in popularity. Feel free to evaluate the video testimonials though: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwBs_ihArc1lCYDym-DH4...

Bitcoin shares many similarities with hemp oil, you can always tell the armchair opinions from the guys who actually use it.


I'm saying that there aren't cancer cure-all properties, which is not "zero medicinal benefits". I think medical marijuana has objective benefits. "Big pharm"/"Big cancer" conspiracy theories and the DEA's influence are irrelevant.


I never said "cure-all"... I never even mentioned cancer nor did the people in the video.


Slightly related: If you are using ST2 I recommend the "Clipboard Manager" plugin to have multiple clipboards, it gets anything that is copied inside ST2 or any other software, it works with multiple cursors which is really handy.


I just tested this with native copy-paste, and - at least on OSX - as long as whatever you're pasting has the same number of lines as you have cursors, you'll get that same line-to-cursor mapping.

That being said, let me also recommend my favorite clipboard history tool, Jumpcut (http://jumpcut.sourceforge.net/).


Where does it say that bitcoins are money?



DOSS attacks can be overcome with a solid infrastructure like Cloudflare (expensive but possible) and also with the help of modern browser capabilities such as webRTC and offline cache.


Services like cloudflare do nothing for API's, which is the core part of any exchange system. Browser technologies have nothing to do with building out secure, distributed trading systems.


You're mistaken about that. APIs cannot benefit from something like CloudFlare. You need the connection to be live to the backend at all times, which isn't how proxy caches work. They take over serving content when the load is high.


I found a way... well, sort of:

    var log = function(){
        args = [].slice.call(arguments);
        args.unshift(console);
        return console.log.bind.apply(console.log, args) 
    }
But you have to add extra parenthesis at the end, hopefully is not too much overhead for most devs.

    log("message")()


Maybe add console.assert to that list:

    console.assert(str.length === 10, "String is not 10 characters long!");
and console.group/groupEnd

    console.group("sums");
    console.log(1 + 1);
    console.log(2 - 3);
    console.groupEnd();


This "console"... IE5 didn't even have console... and event the current one IE haves is a joke compared to firefox or chrome.


I think parent is referring to the bad old days of browser specific sites.


The features of the console is not really a usability issue.
