See this is a good idea but suffers from a UX problem: it is just way too cumbersome to create a new group and add new tabs. When I am on a roll I just want to hotkey a new tab open an start typing a search query for something. ctrl-t and t

Wordfence is a solid product. I 'inherited' my wife's business's website a few years ago from a small marketing firm. It was heavily infected with malware. I tried several tools to clean it up and Wordfence is the one to

While I agree with you, I think of it more like moving the complexity more than removing it. The simplest way to store junk is to throw it all in one space. This is categorically the simplest thing to do. However, your complexity is then mo

You may not mean it this way, but the your post makes it sound like complexity is created out of whole cloth (so to speak) by adding (in your scenario) searchable old emails. And true to the article, that is only half of the equation. Compl

I, like everyone else here, was initially outraged that this could happen and I immediately thought "Oh Tesla, what have you done to your public perception". This is just not what people are expecting and this scenario works again

I completely agree with you as taken verbatim. However, what they are really talking about is that "why will it fail" is a "conversation ender", and "how might it work" is a "conversation continuer".

Just a note on the NTI device, I had one of these for years as I am a bad grinder. After a while I noticed that my front teeth were not coming together any more when biting, and I could not force them together. It turns out it is known that

I would argue these are the exceptions that prove the rule. They all have demonstrable leaders that made this happen. Xerox is done, as is AT&T, as those leaders are long gone. Sony is another one that lost their leader and their magic.

Another way to look at Second-Order thinking is whether someone can understand C pointers intuitively. Joel Spolsky once wrote that understanding pointers is an aptitude, and I believe he was right. It is the same concept as second-order th

You say you are more productive than ever. Is it possible that you are actually a "lark" and that you forced yourself to stay up late, because of social pressure or simply because that is when you were able to do the things you wa

Way late on this reply, but it was in chrome. I found that an immediate back button would often work, but if the page you were navigating to was overly large or you clicked into another link or two and then went all the way back it would lo

I agree with you 100%, but I think you are conflating two different things. What number 12 talks about is having too many choices for one thing. E.g., * Too many themes * Which of these 10 apps would you like to open the text file with? *

So, this is a great explanation. I have never heard it expressed this way and I love it. However, I am a little confused. In your first paragraph you say that 10's prime factors are 5 and 2, so 1/10 can be expressed cleanly. In pa

This is freaking awesome. You probably know this but it does not work in IE on windows 8 with a touchscreen. Chrome works fine however. I am guessing it is something to do with the touch events that IE has that are different?
