What's your source? A quick Google search indicates that someone made up that supposed quote. Pop Quiz! Who said, "I can see Russia from my house"? Answer: Not Sarah Palin, it was Tina Fey.

I haven't tried ownCloud yet, but from what I've read so far, it seems promising. It supports CardDAV [0]. The software is free, but you have to host it on your own server. There does appear to be some services that offer it as

Awesome. Where did you hear this? A Google search for "Everything sucks until version" returns no results. I think there might be some truth to this. My first MVP sucked hard. My second version of it was passable, but still le

I believe one can, though it takes intelligent parents who make an effort to do so, and money as to not to be constrained by social norms. Over the last decade of my life, I've been evaluating how my parents raised me, how my generati

Everyone I know who says they don't like Fox News, says so because of the politics. This is about a fast lawn mower. The only thing that I can see in the article that might make people mad is how loud it is. Considering they are not

I rarely get LinkedIn invite spam like that. I've gotten messages from (maritime) recruiters, but they seem a little more professional from what I'm reading about tech recruiters, although they still follow the same gimmicks abou

I imagine something like this is going through the heads of many people: Oh, an alarm is going off. Is this a drill? Must be, I don't see anyone running or anything on fire. No one is telling me that I have to leave, so I'll j

As a common human being, yes. Though I imagine as a web developer, it might be difficult. I've gone a month without any kind of technology whatsoever, and I felt fine (though I was in the outdoors and kept myself occupied). I've

How does 'amazon.com' make sense for an "online retailer" company? eBay? newegg? Apple? Granted it was originally Apple Computer, but they dropped the "Computer" from their name because it gives them flexibili

Stuff like this does not surprise me. Well, actually it does. It makes me question my assumption that the U.S. government has been doing stuff like this all along. If this leak is legitimate, then one can reason that the NSA didn't just acq
