Correction, it's an irrational fear of homosexuals. You have absolutely no reason to fear them.

And I don't see much good from simply suing a company without trying to work with them in the first place. If it was your company, surely you'd want them to try and solve it internally first?

I hope that the author notified Criticker about these issues before putting them out there on the internet. Not doing so would be extremely irresponsible and is sort of screwing over the users of Cricketer.

I saw this linked somewhere else months ago and keep forgetting about it. Extremely useful if you really don't want to read through a large license file to see if you can use a library in a project or not.

The top answer seems to have the mentality of "screw the consumer" when it comes to versioning. If you have someone using version 1 of an api, when you decide to make it version 2, you're essentially breaking their app by hav

Everyone who's saying it should be opt-in need to realise that the majority of people won't care that people can collect this publicly available data. I don't care either. It helps people navigate more accurately. If you real

If you're so opposed to it, I hope you only ever use GPS and not A-GPS.

I think the author needs to let his ego down a little and stop jumping to conclusions with no evidence.

If you work during your lunch, all you're doing is working every day for an hour for free. Or if you want to look at it slightly differently, you're diluting your salary. Not to say there's anything wrong with putting an extr

Thank you for posting this. I completely agree. We already have a package manager, there's no need to fork it and have to have 2 competing things when it's all open source and those with knowledge can contribute to make npm better

This is great news. Hopefully this means that ports of android and chromiumOS will be able to utilize this.

I began doing web development in the early 2000s and I remember a lot of these things, so it's not just for 90s web devs. I did love the 1px gif though, that sucker was useful. How about doing rounded corners with images? The bigger th

Personally, I'd rather not have to go log in to my email because a site decided it would go passwordless. From a usability perspective, you've greatly extended the amount of time it takes a user to log in and do what they wanted t

They don't. They want apps that are ported to Firefox os from phonegap apps.

If they found their kickstarter account was being used, shouldn't they have contacted kickstarter rather than the authorities? If they did contact kickstarter but got nowhere and were forced to contact the authorities, then that says s

Why did law enforcement officials have to tell them that they were hacked? Surely they should have mechanisms in place to detect this themselves?

They have the word 'lyrics' at the end of the slug for that post and a number of others which don't have any relevance to lyrics. Surely that's still bad SEO practice?

On the topic of technical tests, the company I work for has a good approach. They'll set the technical test for you to do at home (the same one for everyone), then you submit it and they review it. Based on that, you have a phone inter
