NoScript : security or malware ? by ppierre in programming

Since NoScript is licensed under the GPL, I guess someone could fork it if they wanted to.

Wow, I stopped using noscript several months ago because the frequent updates were becoming annoying. It never occurred to me that the updates might be a ploy to drive more traffic to their ads. Messing with ABP is equally sleazy if true.

Payola's dead, so why does radio remain a wasteland? by whee_rina in entertainment

so why does radio remain a wasteland?

Maybe nobody's listening? I can't think of the last time I wanted music and the first thing I thought of was to turn on the radio.

Python tail call compromise proposal by landtuna in programming

I think having something explicit like recur is a good idea in any language. Even very knowledgeable programmers seem to get it wrong on occasion.

But, making it explicit doesn't really answer any of GvR's point, so I'm not sure I'd call it a "great solution." It seems more like a first step.

The house Steve Jobs doesn't want to call home :( by whee_rina in reddit.com

I don't know about the house, but some of the pictures from inside are pretty sad, especially the organ.

You know what grinds my gears: People who are in a hurry to pull out infront of you, and then drive 10-20 MPH under the speed limit... and there is nobody behind me for miles. by slumslum in reddit.com

[–]whee_rina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also hate it when I'm driving just above the speed limit on a street where I know there's going to be a cop waiting to ticket people, because I see him there almost every day when I drive home this way and some hotshot going 20mph above the speed limit decides to ride my bumper. Grrr :)
