I've only found that to be a problem with black text on white. I just finished an 800 page book on my phone with white text on black with no issues. I've found that I prefer reading on my phone to the…

Are there any good whitepapers on megatexturing out there? I've been trying to learn about it, but the powerpoints aren't cutting it.

>I am just saying they didn't leave because of their lofty morals. So they risked giving up 40% market share for the hell of it?

Your cable comes in over the same lines that your internet does.

On the contrary, it seems that the movement is alive and well, and currently throwing Google under the bus.

This isn't de-regulation. There is no regulation right now.

So you've decided that your reading of this is going to stop at rules of thumb?

That seems like something you could sue them for. Is this not an option for people? (In small claims court at least.)

I work near the people that did goo.gl, and even though it has higher uptime and lower latency than any other url shortener, there's pressure on them to make it even faster and more reliable. We defin…

The "break things" part of "move fast and break things" is something Google could learn a bit from. (Speaking as a Googler.) We're great at adding 9s of reliability, not as great at sacrificing reliab…

Sure, but isn't it better to legislate net-neutrality for the wired internet than not do anything at all? If this was the only legislation that could conceivably pass, would you vote for it?

>in exchange for removing any possibility of net neutrality on the wireless internet (which Google claims is the future of internet). [citation needed] This is explicitly not true according to the…

They succeeded in getting Verizon to agree to net neutrality on the wired internet. Isn't that a strict improvement over the status quo?

>"I'm going to the convenience store to buy a joke." What a great meta-punchline. :)

It seems like caution in most circumstances is _not_ to regulate it.

I've learned something about the news today. If A has a good reputation and B has a bad reputation, and A and B come to a compromise, it makes the reputation of A worse, and doesn't make the reputatio…

>Well to just provide one example, Verizon would only have to pay $2,000,000 if they knowingly violate the statue. No criminal sanctions. They can thereafter continue to violate it and just pay an…

They've always been able to do that. They agreed to: Consumer Protections: A broadband Internet access service provider would be prohibited from preventing users of its broadband Internet access servi…

So, because Google and Verizon didn't come to an agreement on wireless internet, that's equivalent to Google supporting a tiered wireless internet? That seems like a pretty big jump to me.

Failure to recommend regulation != opposing regulation.

>Google is officially evil. How would I differentiate evil from a good faith attempt. (According to your definition.)

>Google says they want to push network neutrality but they just created a loophole big enough to drive a truck through. Keep in mind, they did get Verizon to agree to it. That's strictly more rest…

The direct link to the post is already on the front page.

That's only a problem if the internet as a whole isn't fast enough, and the FCC is supposed to ensure that this never happens.

Now, add a third dimension to that diagram that describes the number of people that know any particular bit of knowledge. That's more accurately what I would describe as the "sum total of all human kn…

>broadband companies don't have monopolies do they? In most areas of the US they do.

How so?
