Where did you overhear this? - niniane

@niniane: On an internal mailing list. Someone mentioned a previous manager having said this at one point. As much time as I spend trying to wrestle browsers into some semblance of acceptable performance, this struck a chord with me :) - Joel Webber

Nice, but MobileCrunch trying to claim that private methods are "secret apis" is pretty misleading - Nick Lothian

Cute. - John (bird whisperer)

Is that your laundry tub? If so, that is a pretty fancy laundry tub. - Robert Felty

Using mail2ff, you can friendfeed from the plane and it gets delivered once your phone reattaches to the internet (assuming you have offline email). - Paul Buchheit

Terminal -- Good idea about mail2ff. I should have taken a picture :) - Joe Beda

You're a frequent traveler these days. - Scott Ludwig

Why Lab-Created Diamonds? Lab-created diamond chemically are diamonds. As one might expect, they look just as beautiful as natural diamonds. They are not the same as diamond substitutes, which have different chemical and visual properties. There are several reasons one might prefer lab-created diamonds to natural, mined diamonds: * No chance of them being "conflict" or "blood" diamonds. * No/low negative environmental consequences. * Easier to get colored diamonds. * No involvement from DeBeers, a company many regard as evil for its long-time monopolistic manipulation of the diamond industry prices and its manipulative advertising, as described in the classic Atlantic article, "Have you ever tried to sell a diamond?". * More important than the issue of conflict diamonds, natural diamonds help keep millions of people in poverty through the "natural resource trap" (aka "Dutch disease"), as described in Chapter 2 of Paul Collier's excellent book, The Bottom Billion. In the case of othe - EricaJoy from Bookmarklet

That particular example is kind of a gross color, though. - ⓞnor

Yeah I'm not a fan of canary diamonds myself. Now the whites and the blues are an entirely different matter. - EricaJoy

Who would buy this?? - Karen Padham Taylor from Bookmarklet

It looks creepy - Lucy Zhang

Thanks for sharing; now i need to get the mp3. Anyone recommend a particular recording of this piece? (preferably available at Amazon's mp3 store) :) - Dan Hsiao

Janos Starker's performance is so much better than Yo-Yo Ma's, if you ask me. Starker tends to be more emotional where as Ma always sounded to be a bit sterile. Also, Ma only recently began playing it properly with the double-stops. - Akiva

Carl, she's gorgeous! Congrats again to you both! - Douglas Pearce

hope to someday see these on someone in real life. would be awesome. - Nicķ

"This year, however, proponents of same-sex marriage have found encouragement in both the California Supreme Court decision and in a subsequent order by Gov. David A. Paterson of New York, instructing agencies in his state to recognize same-sex marriages performed legally elsewhere. The California court has also rebuffed several challenges to its May 15 decision, made by two conservative legal groups and by Republican attorneys general who fear that the California marriages will lead to legal challenges brought in their own states." - Bret Taylor

@Ruchira I agree. The Cali court is playing exactly its Constitutional role, and it's essentially a conservative and Federalist approach to reconciling changing societal mores and the demands of a minority. As I've commented elsewhere, we are winning this argument, and we're doing it state by state, rather than through a Federal fiat, which simply is not feasible at this time. All good things... - Rick Powell

I admire what he is doing a lot. I can't imagine the difficulty involved with getting rid of absolutely EVERYTHING. Wow. - Rishabh Mishra (p248)

It would be great to start afresh. But why would anyone want to buy his life? - Winston Teo
