mtanski "you should really rent the car for a couple days." Exactly! This what we do when we are car shopping. Normal cycle is to start looking when the existing car hits the 8% mark in unscheduled maintenance (or 150K miles) (yo

"As I explain in my upcoming book...." now the article makes sense, TC is helping her pimp her book. What the internet needs is a new financial model since the one we are have now isn't working in the long term.

Wait, nobody has gone "Chuck Norris's Norris Number is 2.2 million!"? (I clicked on the title just because of Norris, I was thinking it was another Chuck reference.) I can see the steps. I have and can crank out 2,000 lines

I didn't see the entire demo, but can I write on it? I have a pencil, can I write words and have them come out as text? I'm happy to write in Palm's Graffitti. It works now for iDevices and my finger, but the new pencil wo

I agree, if they are all going to look alike, work alike and the base is now Chrome, then might as well use Chrome. But frankly if I wanted to use Chrome then I'd be using Chrome now. I've stopped the version madness here, I have

A well researched article, I love it when people write/speak and have the data to back up their positions. As far as $30 a month goes for content, my Comcast bill sans internet is about $45 (I split the taxes in 1/2). I'm ab

Yes, boat and RV owners would love deep discharge battery packs that have longer lives. Wet-cell is about a 48 month life, the AGM's a little better. A full set replacement for a large RV is about $2K, so getting another year or two

Just as I can not rip my bleeding eyes away from Honey Boo Boo, I can't not ask how you got 20K lines of CSS. Families live under the covers of ~5-6K of CSS. Major click bait sites exist with 10-15K of CSS. Help all of us here. You o

So I was excited, I have this very need and was going to load up a chat server. But there already is a site, great, and I'll use that (I'm into not reinventing the wheel) instead of investing my time (at more than $5/hour).

I have to say that I like the form factor in this Wired article. http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2015-03/12/bbc-micro-bit... Looks like the prior iteration would be lots easier to connect outside se

I wish there was better docs / info about performance. I have a dog slow WP site that is hosted on Godaddy (and that may be my problem). It takes 800 ms to get the html out to the browser to start the loads. I've pulled plugins

I had different version of a chess program back in the 80's when I was teaching PL/I. It is a good example of doing something complex (chess) fairly simply in code. This version looks pretty clean, maybe because of the Fortran ro

It's Tulsa University, what about the article is a surprise? If you have had any dealings with them you would be shaking your head "un-huh, that's the way they roll"

It worked well for me when I donated. Looks like this is working, the number is way up. A little advertising goes a long way.

I was talking to a friend about it a few weeks ago as one of the nicest Unix systems out there. It would make a great teaching tool since it was very well documented. I tried to run it in a VM with not much success, it was very slow. Wond

So 299+5% and/or 299+(5%) to figure the sales tax does not work at all, it just says "Your equation has an error. Please correct it." and no hint to what the error is. Sorry, not ready for prime time
