The main problem I have with Ember tuts is that no one ever covers the GET /user?ids[]=1&ids[]=2 scenario? In what world do "ambitious" web apps return every user in the database?

Re: The Case for Apple's Stock Price Falling to $270

No this guy is not for real... this is the equivalent of "Is Apple headed for $1000?" articles. Meaningless numbers.

On a lighter note: If it hits 270 in 12 months, I'm going to unload the bank account.

Competition from Microsoft... in the form of Skype and Skydrive?!?! That statement is unbelievable.

Web Apps?!?!?! Is he talking about the original iPhone? Is this 2007? Web Apps from Netflix?!?!?!? Just let that idea sink in.

"This wouldn't have happened if Steve were around."

This guy...

He obviously uses a Blackberry and it just finished loading a Gizmodo article from a circa 2008 HTTP request.

1. We can all agree that all those people you mentioned are generally pretty biased.

2. O'Reily and respectful go together like James Brown and sobriety.

Just for fun, let's play a guessing game: Do you think that was among A) the smartest things I've ever heard; or B) the dumbest things I've ever read?

Where do you guys get your unbiased news? ABC, CBS, FOX, MSNBC, CNN, PBS, NPR, EIB, Bryan Fischer?

Then I am assuming, because you can infer all those things from what they've said, that Obama did go on an apology tour and Romney/Ryan do want all those things, even though they never "literally" said them. Obama: -1 Romney: -4 (according to you).

The words apology or apologize never appear in the transcripts of The President's speech.
