Wouldn't the bugzilla entry [0] a better choice since the discourse community entry just points there? The preamble by Josh (ISRG Executive Director) is literally just a copy of the first paragr…

Agreed, and Mitsubishi. But perhaps this is a North America vs UK thing? Or perhaps Toyota as a sponsor of AutoExpress. Perhaps Hugo Griffiths at AutoExpress was just one of the ten thousand [0] on…

The title is "On Life, Liberty, and Stock Markets" (h2.. most prominent on page), or "Unusual Whales" (html.head.title). While this title might be a synopsis, it doesn't exac…

That LG one is really ugly (maybe it looks better in life? I'm dubious).. but the Woobi plus, the Woobi wins (gas mask-chic). There are some interesting alternatives out there.. although they al…

That's a good question. I agree with your definition of AG. However, the only time a database (or any other kind of data store) would be useful in an AG setting would be if it's part of an…
