My thoughts exactly. Most people cringe at using GoDaddy as a registrar. Using them for hosting your site? Double-cringe.

Very nice build there! Question though: Have you measured how much power it consumes when idle and when under load? That's been my main thing holding me back from building a beefed up home server/NAS box. Friend of mine used to ha

I work in a group that manages a large amount of Solaris, AIX, and Linux servers, of varying versions. When I'm writing scripts that can be run on any given system, there are very few things I can use that I know will work. One of th

I kinda like this. More often than not, I never click the "Display Images" link because I know doing so will essentially feed information back to the people who sent the email (the fact that I opened it, my geoIP location, browser

It's all in the wording. You're not paying $30 extra to opt-out. They're giving you a $30 discount for you to hand over your data. It's the same way gas stations get away with "charging extra" for credit. Most

Who comes up with these ideas? I can't even picture a somewhat educated group of people, sitting around a board room table, thinking that this is a remotely good idea.

I understand the need to spread the word, etc... and you are giving out free stuff.. but forcing people to follow and retweet your message, without even giving the option to edit the text.. I don't like it.

So one question that hasn't really been mentioned yet... What happens in the event of a fire? Do you just keep going? Stop the Fire suppression systems? Given any worst-case scenario.. how do you escape from the tunnel?

Any word on if I can stream whatever is on my Android screen to this? There are many times where I have pics on my phone (either via the phone's camera, or Picasa, G+, etc) that I want to show people at home - but there's no easy

For some reason, this paragraph irked me more than it should have: If the subscriber has tabs but they didn’t opt to include the Promotions tab, Gmail will deliver to Primary instead. That’s good news. Other than that, we’re d

This is what I want when I'm looking to plan a trip. Notice I said "trip", not flight. Usually I don't care about my method of travel, I just want to get from A to B to C in an efficient and affordable manner. I live in

Sheesh. "Flat UI" now goes along with iOS 7? It's been around much longer than yesterday. iOS 7 is late to the party.

Thank you for using a specific blacklist on HTTP_REFERER. Worst I've seen done is when sites will throw the stupid "No Hotlinking" message image when they don't see a matching referrer from the same domain. In other words, a "fuck you" to a

Why does it matter that much what technology is in the backend? You lead the industry with results, not with the means to get to those results. If I can make my webapp better (however you define "better") than my competitors' using PHP and

Looks like someone pushed the wrong SSL cert to production: www.bing.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: a248.e.akamai.net , *.akamaihd.net , *.akamaihd-staging.net

I got my GV number back in 2008-2009ish.. Not 100% sure on the exact date, but I've had it for a while. I didn't start using it full-time at first, since I had an old flip-phone and there really wasn't much value added by having another num

I got into Google Voice very early on. I grabbed a number ending in 1337 in my area code. That's now become my main number I give out to people. It brings a smirk to the few people who get it :)

Sure, GitHub is "heavily relied upon resource for the open source community" - but what is really the impact of their downtime? You have to wait a little longer to do your push/pull/merge/etc? Give them a break.
