Claim Chowder: ‘The Apple Bubble Is Ready to Burst’ Leonid Kanopka, writing for Seeking Alpha in November, two months ago: Apple is a great company with wonderful products, but its run is up. It seems to me that innovation is beginning to run dry, and the stock price is overinflated. The stock has begun to fall already dropping from its $426 high. If the economy does not pick up and the...

Confessions of a Binge Drinker - The Atlantic
It began at dinner with a group of friends in a popular restaurant. What followed was a series of wines paired to dishes, including some rather unusual wine selections by our very talented sommelier. I became a bit tipsy but, after nearly four hours, delightful conversation, and an amazing meal, what I felt most was satiated. I consumed seven drinks in total, or about two per hour. I finished...
Google Comes Up Short In Q4 Earnings • parislemon
Google Comes Up Short In Q4 Earnings Remember when it would have been a better idea to buy Google stock with the proceeds from your idiotic Apple share sell off? Yeah. That looked like a stupid thing to say 10 days ago. Today it looks like the worst advice ever. After the egg was laid today, Google’s stock immediately plunged 10% (currently down 7.5%). Apple’s...

Why I Hate Android • parislemon
When I see Google talk about how “open” the platform is, setting it up as the foil to the “closed” (and framed as “evil”) iPhone, I want to scream and rip someone’s head off. It’s not only the most extreme example of being disingenuous that I can ever recall seeing. It’s nuclear bullshit. via parislemon.com Posted via email from MeTooFull | Comment »

To the occupiers and their sympathizers, I say vote — not with the ballot, but with your feet. Now that your encampment has disbanded, don’t just leave Zuccotti Park: leave America. For China.

The very popularity that attracts a buyer also makes the project financially unsustainable. The owners cash out, the acquirer gets some good engineers, and the users get screwed. To avoid this problem, avoid mom-and-pop projects that don’t take your money! You might call this the anti-free-software movement. via blog.pinboard.in Posted via email from...

You Want Me To Do What To My What? • parislemon
How nice, Google is allowing you to opt out of having your wireless access point (read: your wireless router) included in their Google Location Server (read: their giant location database). All you have to do is append “_nomap.” to the end of your SSID. That’s great — 99% of the people who will want to do this will have absolutely no idea what any of the above paragraph means.
