   Sure you are right, it's anecdotal and subjective. If you think nothing of it, please go ahead and try Sony. Getting so many problems in such a short time despite a costly service repair didn't really make my day. Now the machine is a brick

   I had a Vaio VGN-Z70B. You can somehow run linux on it but its a pure pain. On another note, I strongly suggest against Sony. Some things I experienced: - Severe quality problems (broken cdrom plastic part on the side, white pixels screen,

    I agree, after seeing that reddit IAMA some time ago about infographics and spamming for search engine rank, I immediately thought that too. http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/d7e24/my_job_was_to_ga... EDIT: Sorry scrrr, didn't realize

    A good alternative for a sweet tooth is Honey. Not the cheap rubbish but the good stuff (e.g. UMF 10+). Manuka Honey even has antibacterial benefits and tastes great.

    Jawdropping code I agree ;) Recently I found this link which was an attempt to justify TDD/BDD methods to program something then to unfactor it and make it significantly more complex. Not as awesome as the TDWTF post though. http://rubycon

    I am not an expert on the field but as far as I heared from my friends who do business down there the country has a huge problem with corruption. It goes through all levels of the entire system.
