I can't imagine how I'd survive without Lastpass. One of it's added benefits is seeing just how many different services you don't use any more still have your details. I did a purge a few months back and I'm down fr

Hopefully this means I won't have to pay £1.61 in bank transfer fees every month.

Does anyone know of a similar guide for Ruby? I'm an ASP.net developer and I'm trying to get some insight into other (perhaps quicker/easier) ways of doing exactly what this guide describes.

Don't forget all the time required to write up all the reports, I'm sure there's a crazy amount of paperwork after an incident.

But by requiring a remote build server I can't work without a network. If I wanted to quick code reviews or checks I could just look at the repository on my iPad. Still very nice implentation. It must be scary writing a product that sq

Does anyone have any recommendations for comment systems on Ghost? It looks like they themselves are using Disqus and Jeff Atwood is using Discourse (obviously) are there any other contenders?

The appeal is you can upgrade to 16GB RAM after you've bought it. OWC $142 Apple $300 Apparently the SSD in the retina models is upgradeable but only to PCI based SSDs

I really hope they keep the 13" Macbook Pro around. The Macbook Air is a fantastic machine but being able to stick a reasonably priced SSD and 16GB of ram into my work 13" MBP has improved my output dramatically. I wonder how long

Yeah It's really weird seeing adverts, feels like Sky double dipping to me. To be fair to Sky though when Now TV went down last week they gave us a free month to make up for it.

Yeah you're correct. I keep getting it confused with Sky Go.

I can watch any episode of Game of Thrones and stream the new episodes as they broadcast live on TV with Sky Now in the UK. £5.99 a month.

It was my understanding that Google + was created to tie Google products together. The main purpose of this was to stop Google getting in trouble for recommending its own services in search results. I quite like Google +, it does need work

I wonder if Google wanted this or Microsoft pushed for it. I think Google Hangouts with the Xbox One and Kinnect would be a great combination. Will Microsoft allow it when it would make Skype look bad or do they just want users on their pla

Would it not be fair to say that because 1024 is free it's taking sales away from Threes? They might be doing fine, maybe they deserve to do better.

I wonder what precautions Google will take to avoid fragmentation of smart watches. If this software works well I'd be interested to see an actual watch manufacturer implement it, seeing as software has always been their downfall.

It's interesting that the iPlayer team are so open about some things but so quiet about others. I don't expect ETAs I'm just interested to know the differences between PS4 and Xbox One app development.

I'm new to this game but I think there's a lot more to programming than "programming". I'd love to be a polyglot but I spend so much time learning the differences between App Store "guidelines"/tools

I might have to move from Squarespace to Ghost but I hate updating blogs manually, It's just another step to climb before I can actually write a post. Since I graduated two years ago Coding Horror has taught me so much.

Doesn't (or didn't) Google pay to be the search engine by default? Is this different? I've donated to Firefox. I'd pay for an Ad free version but I don't have any problem with them doing this if it funds them in a m

That would require them to have more technical understanding than just how to use BBC CMS. The BBC would rather "dilute" tech news to make it easier to understand than educate or challenge the readers.

Maybe there should be a public record of the bugs and who found them, something you could point to on a CV.

The article doesn't seem to take voice control into account. My first week with the Xbox I struggled to find apps but after I got used to navigating with the Kinnect the UI made a lot more sense.

They use this at Trovebox, I like it a lot. It would be great if it could give you a list of failed uploads though, it would make them easier to search and investigate.
