I disagree. I'm don't want to use FourSquare and Instagram and Twitter when Path can do it all in one place. It takes longer to open multiple apps when it comes to social things. I don't want to have to think: I want to share a picture, wha

Maybe I'm stupid for asking but what is the advantage of this over a spring powered wound clock? My wristwatch can tick for two days on a wind, and while it isn't as cheap as this gravity powered wound clock I'm sure it could be made cheape

That makes sense. Ideally it would be nice to have one common elegant language which can do it all. But I doubt that any one language can do everything elegantly. The syntax of some languages make them much more elegant for certain purposes

The very restrictive nature of a template pseudo language is one of its beneficial attributes. If, for example, you use PHP to create your templates then the very power and flexibility of PHP allows you to make a "quick fix" for a model iss

There is a more technical list, including the details on the improvements for developers here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_3.5 The biggest thing I wish WordPress would add is a better built in system for real templates, using a som

Okay thanks... I understand now. You started the project at Twitter, but it wasn't owned by Twitter. I'm glad that Twitter didn't claim Bootstrap as company owned code, because I and thousands of other people have really enjoyed using it in

Interesting... For some reason I had always assumed that Bootstrap was associated more closely with Twitter because it had the word "twitter" in the name. Now I understand why some business are so concerned with preventing other websites an

Yes, Chrome is crashing every two minutes or so for me as well. I think it has to do with Gmail being open in one tab while Gmail is down. This is very bad.

Does anyone else have any experience setting up SPDY on a web server? Since SPDY is already supported by Chrome and Firefox, I'd be interested in at least experimenting with it if there is an Apache or Nginx based solution which is stable e

Most people who have their site go down aren't using proper caching so their Wordpress sites are evaluating the PHP and querying the MySQL database with each page load. This is extremely wasteful of processor cycles and memory, hence the si

Neat idea but it is way too animated, and the animation is too slow, making it feel inaccurate when mousing from one item to another. Somehow I also got it to bounce back and forth between two tooltips really fast by mousing from one bolded

Very nice! I hope this will provide an easy way to backup information in DynamoDB to S3, or just move it to S3 for EMR. I've been wanting to back up our database to another service just in case for a while, but haven't had time to develop a

1) It's probably a function of specialization. VLC is better at video because that is all they do. Windows and Mac OS X built in solutions are mediocre because they are part of a larger platform which isn't so specific. Also to be frank VLC

Foursquare is integrated into a lot of other products. For example Instagram and Path both use Foursquare to get nearby locations when uploading an image, and I'm sure there are numerous other services that do the same thing. There is still

With regard to point #1 I generally find VLC to be much more forgiving than the generic video players built into Windows or Mac OS X. VLC will often play damaged video files and all sorts of random, slightly corrupted files found on file sh

I agree with the points made in this article. Most publishers' apps really do suck. The startup that I'm currently working for ( http://storydesk.com ) is solving this problem by building a product which makes it simpler for publishers to d

In the demo video the augmented elements seem to blend very well into the surrounding dynamic lighting. In the real world it never looks that good, especially in an outdoor setting where the lighting changes throughout the day.

I do the same thing. Whether or not it works depends on the time of day. If it is just a 4:00 in the afternoon lull in attention span a short walk (or if I have a deadline an espresso at the desk) will usually get me back on track. If it is

Personally I like the Mac OS X interface, and my only complaint about it is that I would like to see more applications making better use of large screens, especially if this "full screen app" is going to become the next style wave to sweep

You have to watch out for association bias. If you haven't seen the video very many times it is likely that your associates don't watch the video much either. But among other circles it has quite a bit more exposure than would seem reasonab

The argument could be made that giving as much of yourself as possible is a crucial ingredient to making the startup worth it. After all if you are holding back the product and business isn't building itself. Of course it probably isn't hea
