Wow. So it works for me and I'm using Opera . This reversal has to be some kind of first for me...

Heh, you have no contact information in your profile. Flick me an email (my email is in my contact page) and if I get around to it I'll let you know.

Anecdote: my girlfriend has never bought anything off Amazon. She did just spend ~500 on a bunch of clothes online though. Also, in terms of Amazon's electronic offerings (music, app store, movies, a surprisingly large amount of the Kindle

I sent him an email yonks ago and he put up all his stuff for a week or so. This was pre-fame so maybe that won't work anymore.. if you're really keen I'm sure I could put up what I have somewhere (I managed to mangle some of the id3 tags u

Right, for the camera, not for Path. The point is^ that users don't (and couldn't be expected to) understand that location service permissions aren't transitive. They have gone to the options menu and said "No path, you may not use my locat

Yeah, what Lukeas said. They more fit the OS style, whereas cutesy games feel more at home on iOS. Bonus: An example of a game that feels written to fit in with Windows Phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bigduckgam...

So I think the problem they have with this is that it makes Path look duplicitous. On the one hand, you've indicated to Path that you're not interested in them making your location public. Maybe from an API standpoint maybe that just means

Exactly. When a user denies location data they don't mean "don't use location data from this source" they mean "don't track my location". It's not unlike them having a flag in their options menu called "Don't track my location" which, whe

I don't think it's that. They've been fairly vocal in forums and random discussions about how page views are what's most important to them (when people complained about the site redesign the answer was invariably "page views are going up so

Bah, yeah, so that's my biggest gripe with ST.. it seems to want to load the whole file into memory before it lets you work with it. I'm not sure if that's a philosophical thing or a limitation of how ST works, but it's really annoying. I

I'm not near a computer at the moment, can any body tell me how the performance is with very large files (>20mb) compared to the previous releases? If there was one thing that disappointed me about ST2 it was that it wasn't very compete

My concern is not that I would (I am actually decent at reading abstracts and things like that, though I still wouldn't trust my opinion on a subject I'm not deeply versed in), it's that other people would. People are still not vaccinating

Yeah, I guess what I really mean is that I can understand the want or need for curation of this kind of content. I can also understand that the curation can be done for good (let's not release this cause we screwed up and so the results are

This is fairly absurd, any app that allows user generated content (including, dun dun dun, Safari) allows young precious eyes previously untouched by the horrors of boobies to be exposed so dangerously. Still, this is a bit like writing a t

On the one hand, more public data the better! On the other hand, it just sounds like more fodder for uneducated people^ to completely misunderstand what's going on, and all the various failings and pain that comes from that. The last thing

I've observed (not scientifically as you say) the opposite. In fact, just yesterday there was some 'Android sucks Apple's great' stuff going on in the comments on an article on The Verge, which is actually one of the sites he directly say

I've never understood this line of reasoning. It is entirely within YC's right to fund businesses that a portion of the Internet find scummy. Shockingly, it's entirely within the rights of that portion of the Internet community to then whin

That was a humorous half-truth. The full truth is a lot more complex and rich with personal details that don't need to be shared with people on the Internet. We could make up lots of good reasons for not moving though. My parents are sick a

I can only speak from my perspective, but the main reason I'd only click on ones that are near me is because I live in NZ, and there is little point me seeing a bunch of jobs in the valley, unless they're big fans of people working from hom

I think there is a real distinction between language features / design patterns / idioms that are enjoyable and efficient to write, and ones that enjoyable and efficient to read . And it's usually (for me at least) pretty hard to tell, exc

I didn't know. And now I do, and that quote seems incredibly scummy. You guys should really fix that. Or remove it entirely and go with another quote if you don't think you can make it work with that knowledge.

I guess it depends on who your market is. Perhaps if you're github or something you might want to care. If you're "Your Local Newspaper" where local is not in California or some other American tech mecca? I don't think you need to care ye

So? This shows that there exists employees of anti-pirate companies who themselves pirate. This doesn't prove that, say, the head of these organisations-- who are the ones setting these policies and conversing with the media-- are the one
