6. Reboot? But I don’t want to reboot! I never understood why it has to have a system reboot either, and I'm on a Mac. I don't like rebooting, I just like to let my Mac sleep!

This is great, the spreadsheet not the bomb threats. Nicely done.

When did these bomb threats happen? At the end of term or beginning? During exam week? When a famous politican is visiting? 126 is alot. I bet if you were to investigate the timing of these threats you might find some interesting correlatio

Thank you, for uh, writing this comment. I was, uh, thinking the same thing, uh, myself and how tacky that was. I'm sure it was intended, as perhaps a "low blow", since it's very easy to quote someone without all the damn "uh"s. Not very cl

"I think we don't have enough investment vehicles for rich people and so the lack of supply has driven up prices" I think there's a strong correlation between the end of the recent Housing Bubble, and the start/ramp-up of all these $Billi

This guy, Phil Plait, gives an related talk about asteroids and how it's a really good idea to be thinking about them now , just in case one should come close to hitting us and making us all extinct. Plus, he's a great speaker with a healt

It doesn't surprise me at all either -- it has anti-CEO written all of it. Edit: Which to me isn't a bad thing necessarily.

How about: "The Fandalism Bundle" Just like all those "indie game and app bundle" sites, but you source the goodies from your musical userbase. It could be anything, but enough to be of "value" for say 10 bucks, or $25, or $50 or whatever,

... I think there's a fine line between newsworthy-news and "here's the link to buy the watch!" that they would rather not cross, and thus err on the side of caution.

I don't disagree, but I think it's probably because the BBC can't be seen to directly promote a commerical product?

Does this mean; that when I context switch mind sentence; using semi-colons; I'm also programming? Sweet!

“Oh, that’s not my job,” is usually what folks say when they can't do the "shit" that needs to be done. It's what people say when they want to save face and not be labelled as someone who "can't do it". It's a defense mechanism.

Unless of course the lowest option, functionality wise, isn't less than $30.

Are you allowed to make a porn game with this engine? I ask in all seriousness... I'm thinking maybe the licence of this engine comes with certain terms?

...or perhaps a simple "Zen of Javascript" would be in order. Reading this "debate" makes me thankful for the Python Community and their stance on "readable code" above all else.

Good question, I'll try an answer: Personally, when I ask myself this question, "Oh no! How could this be happening to my goverment/society, we are supposed to be better than that"; I simply remind myself of all the terrible moments in pa

Bravo. This is so simple, I can't believe I didn't think of it -- just put a "github homepage" link/image on that pop-up that users can then right-click to their hearts content. And here I was thinking about adding cookies and saving client

That's awesome, they should definitely have a link to this page on their pop-up :)

I know that overriding expected functionality like this is considered a "no-no", but let's not loose sight of the fact that this "UX trick" was used on a logo, on the masthead, on the site's header. What do you really want if you right-cl

This site seems to be the perfect example I was looking for during yesterday's discussion on the ever-increasing size of users' screens. I know you are a photography site, and you want your photos to be big & beautiful -- but this is

by OzzyB 15y ago
I agree with tjoff; just because a majority of users' screensizes are increasing, doesn't mean we have to keep "upping" the size of our webpages accordingly. I don't think the guy that just bought a brand-sparkling new 27" cinema display re

One other slightly different view I'll throw out there is that FB having to pay Instagram $1billion, is simply its "cost of doing business". For FB to maintain its leadership position -- especially with an IPO around the corner no less -- i

Perhaps it is meant in the sense that, in a capitalist society, if 10 new restaurants open up on your main/high street to serve a "need", let's say steaks, then price for raw beef will go up since all these restaurants have to buy supply be

Would it be fair to say that the reason Apple has their entire supply chain in China is because those "supply clusters" were already there because of the Japanese consumer tech companies that built them up in the 80's? (I have no idea when
