If I understand correctly, you can now keep track of a repository in two ways: starring it or watching it. If you star it, it's more like a "favorite" in that you can find it easily in the future, but that's it. If you watch it, its activit

I was wary to set up 2FA until I learned that you can set it up even without a cellphone or your own computer. You can have the second factor be a voice call, so it can call a landline or dumbphone without an SMS plan. Plus, if you ever los

The thing is, GNOME has always been an interface that's highly optimized for desktops and laptops. If they wanted to come up with a new interface for tablets and mobile, they should have done it with a separate project.

> Why own a game system... There's actually a service called "OnLive" that streams games, it seems pretty cool. It's a mashup between Steam and Netflix; you don't have to have a gaming PC to render the frames, just a fast Internet conne

No, but Google Groups brings the innovations mentioned above to email lists , so it's an analogous comparison.

Fun! I left Apple where it was in the middle because it looked about right to me (silver) and got a 0. Other than that, I was between 75-98 every time.

I think Minecraft's "Creative Mode," where you are given an unlimited number of otherwise-farmable resources to do with what you please, is what the article is talking about.

The thing is, you're not losing your email client. You paid for Sparrow, the email client, as it was at a given point. If you were happy with your purchase a week ago, you should still be happy with your purchase. You still have the same

Coderwall forces you to upload an image, then it "hipsterizes" it (their words, not mine). From what I can tell, this involves significantly reducing the size of the image, increasing the saturation and local contrast, and then stretching a

Wow, my coderwall post got posted to HN? That's pretty cool! Interesting title choice, though... FTP will still be useful for a long time. I didn't really write this as a tutorial as much as an easy way for me to look back and find the comm

Crowd-sourcing has recently become a way to get free publicity and money, even if something is already built. For example, Roll20.net launched a Kickstarter campaign [1] with a tiny limit ($5,000) to build an online tabletop RPG. It became

A bit off topic, you totally psychologically hijacked me for a kudo. :-P I was curious what the kudos were, so I hovered over the icon. It told me not to move and started filling up, so I waited curiously. Finally, it counted that as a kudo

I think jQuery 2.0 is partly a response to Zepto.js [1] -- they're both jQuery-API-compatible, and they both drop support for OldIE (Zepto drops all of IE, though [2]). [1]: http://zeptojs.com/ [2]: http://zeptojs.com/#platforms
