So Firefox 3.6 scores 1.5, Firefox 7.01 scores 2, Chrome Win (14.0.835) scores 2.5, while IE 8 gets a 3? Safari for Windows isn't even recognized.

Now that is a feature I would upgrade for.

I lived most of my life estranged from my father due to issues I won't get into here. When I was 32 though we finally got to know each other more as adult friends than as father/son. As much as I never saw any reason to get to know him be

It was obvious he knew the end was near. He would never have stepped out of running Apple until he new for sure he wouldn't be around much longer. The moment he resigned as CEO I knew the doctors had told him it was only a matter of time

It's just if the tab looses focus for more than a second or two it closes.

Those three round contacts on the side have me intrigued. Some form of dock connector? I have a Nexus One and I still love it; I was hoping perhaps HTC would build the next Nexus. I just couldn't go for the Nexus S due to it lacking an SD

Additional summary. "Not everyone wants automatic updates, so you'll still be able to do it the old way if you choose." This is what I like about Mozilla, choice. Thank you to the devs that keep user choice in mind.

I collect antique "technology" and have a couple of these along with Comptometers, a Golden Gem, and an Odhner. It really is amazing when you look at how these things work. I also used to collect late 1800's typewriters but they were takin

There was a discussion about this here on HN when they announced this naming change. At the time it didn't make sense to me and it really still doesn't. The Nightly, Alpha, Beta, RC standard is pretty ubiquitous and I think it's just conf

2 Commodore PET's do it for me... a 2001 and a SuperPet. Some of the old cassette tapes still read though most of the floppies don't anymore.

Agreed.. I restart FF maybe once a week and most of the time it's sitting open with 10-15 tabs. If you're having stability issues with FF it's a plugin IMO.

Succinctness is definitely not the sole measure of programming language's power. If it was then APL would have become mainstream. In that case it actually worked against adoption of the language even though it was very capable otherwise.

Oh the memories. I ran a Telegard BBS back in 1989-91 called "Circle of One". I still have it backed up though I would probably have to find some old hardware to run it on. It ran on a 20Mhz 286 at the time with 2 Meg RAM and a couple of

Agreed, which was why I included: "...while some of the conditions may be real for some people". I'm not disputing real conditions like your wife's, I'm saying some medical conditions these days have symptoms so loosely interpretable by th

This is a wild speculation on my part but it just popped to mind. Perhaps the reason faux drugs are more and more useful is because we're using them to treat a rising number of faux illnesses. Maybe some of the cases where placebos are wo

I seem to remember an article awhile back where someone from Mozilla wrote that they didn't care to make up the last X% of the test because (if I recall correctly) they didn't agree with the interpretation of the standards that made up the

> "To start, home screen one is the far left, not the center." That's a little disappointing. That can leave you up to 6 swipes away from the screen you're trying to get to. As a user who shortcuts everything on one of the screens I w

His comment is not without merit. Your view assumes that a high percentage of employees are inclined to donate. Perhaps they are not. If only 10% of employees partake then that's a far smaller amount going to charity. What would be best

I have to admit I really like Office365's Excel implementation, it is superior to GDocs Spreadsheet but the package as a whole is still not there... Employees can edit GDocs on their tablets, Android Phones or iPhones with native apps or in

That other "TechCrunch As We Know It May Be Over As We Know It" may have been quite prescient... seems like they are down entirely for me right now. Will have to wait to read this article. I am quite curious about the future of WebOS having

That logo looks like the love child between Apple and LG. In fact it reminds me more of LG than Apple.

True, edited to reflect my bias. Again, different form factor, different uses.
