I feel that my 3GS is old because it lags like crazy. I have a hard time believing it would not be the case for you too.

Yes, that's the current trending explanation. The fact is, Free is notoriously bad for watching youtube videos (they threshold bandwidth) and got bad rep recently about that along with a probe from the ARCEP (the telecom watchdog agency) on

Yes, I think it has potential. It could also be nice to be able to directly embed the image in forums, so have a direct link to the image (might also be useful for reddit ?). I know that then, it makes it a bit harder to exatract money, but

I would even say, living abroad for a while with your kids would be a bonus for them (granted they are not just 6 months old but a few years old). They'll pick up a foreign language (even though Dutch is not the most important one) and see

I would like to second this. I also did a project using d3 this year, and everybody I've shown it to has been really impressed, especially in "management". It took a bit of investment from my side (i.e. I did not book all the hours) but I k

I had never heard of WebStorm before, and on the wikipedia page, they seem to say that all of its functionalities are part of IntelliJ IDEA. Is it true ? If I buy IntelliJ IDEA, will I be able to do everything that can be done in WebStorm ?

You should use firefox ... it has the same functionality, and you can host the server if you want.

Well, your Danish looks like Dutch to me ;) As a matter of fact, people here in NL say regularly that Danish and Dutch are 2 close languages. I'm pretty sure Dutch is not considered a Scandinavian language though.

That role is actually held by webkit nowadays, with webdev using only -webkit-* css properties (without including the non-prefixed one) and webkit not dropping their prefix once something has been standardized. See https://wiki.mozilla.org

Ha yes, totally agreeing ... The worst part of that is when overtaking ... a traditional Dutch driver will only look to see if he has the place to go, not if the car coming at the back is much faster than him/her. So you end up with a lot o

There are bike lanes in Amsterdam (not living there, but living in NL), but I can believe that some streets don't have any. The main difference though is that in NL, (car) drivers are used to have bikes around them (and are usually bike rid

Same here, although I was there only for a (long) week-end, I really liked the city. I've also stayed several days in SF, but did not quite like it as much as Boston. In contrast, I've stayed 6 months in DC, which I ... hum ... did not part

As a Frenchman, I also can't see how you can call the UK "atheist" :p BUT, I do think the number of religious extremists is lower. (I haven't lived in the UK though). It's like when I hear people here (I live in the Netherlands) that they a
