This is bad. Sure, you can make the user forget about files most of the times, but not kill it completely, because: 1) It'll be a hell of work to parse everything. Should my music clips go into the music folder or video folder? Sure, you

I don't think this is the place for ads. A shame it's from Brazil. Wish I could report.

Interesting blog. She switched to Dvorak too, which somehow doesn't strike me as a surprise. But that still doesn't explain why they call themselves "kids".

They did, but are on their second day. I agree, there should be periodical updates here. I'm very curious about this.

Funny, I've heard a lot of stories of people starting this sleep schedule, but not a single one of someone that managed to maintain it. Let's see how this one goes.

Opens the page. Small flash interface appears. "Oh noes, a flash pdf! I hate those..." UNEXPECTED TWIST I simply loved the way the story was told. Even more than the story itself, but that's a compliment, not a critic. And because i

It seems the writings were sped up or the users were using tablets. It sure seems a neat program, but I doubt I'd ever use it to write anything. Maybe for using during a call, for example?

Unfortunately it's not perfect. It didn't display the icons correctly and there was no clear division between and after the scenarios. That's why I tend to use it more for reading medium-long stories, not fixing website's design.

I loved the comments in the GNU cat. "Why are (OUTSIZE - 1 + INSIZE * 4 + LINE_COUNTER_BUF_LEN + PAGE_SIZE - 1) bytes allocated for the output buffer?" Then it goes on a 15 lines article, divided in two paragraphs, explaining the reasoning

I didn't actually try to read anything because the orange/white/black layout makes my eye cry, so instead I just skimmed over to get an overview based on the design/layout/article organization alone. At first, I didn't know if the keyboard

Misleading headline. Weight gain depends on how much calories you take and how much is burned. This two cannot be separated as suggested. And the research was merely statistical, not biological: the average middle aged woman needs at least

I agree that some data is better than no data, but I think these researchers' time and money could be put to a better use. And sure common sense sometimes is wrong and it must be corrected, but I don't think this case was a priority.

I'm sorry, but that seems rather obvious to me. Males have been trying to impress females since the dawn of time. Was this research really required? They had a nice experiment setup, but didn't seem to bother with different age ranges, sexu

It happens on Brazil as well. It's common for people to take six-months courses to review all high-school contents before taking the entrance exam, and it's also common for them to fail at least once. Depending on the college and graduation

It's the same graphs, just with the "real life" one being new. But it does include an important piece of wisdom: people want their lives to have greater ups and downs, just like in the stories, and that's why some make drama for nothing.
