Why should that stop them. Similar naming didn't stop Apple from releasing MAC OS 9, when Microware OS-9 already existed.

Or just install the JRE, but from the developer download site (same place you download the JDK).

Really! Cool - I was not aware of that (only using them under Linux).

Though I don't personally have any problem with system Java installations, I agree that it would be nice if JetBrains would just do as most Java game developers (and many destop app developers) do and simply bundle a JRE with the IDE.

Bank security is a poor comparison. Bank security doesn't significantly inconvenience the customers. It primarily causes extra work for the employees and, of course, potential robbers. DRM, on the other hand, causes the most inconvenie

I personally despise infinite scroll, at least on mobile sites, as it limits: 1. My ability to orient myself in the content. 2. My ability to control my consumption of the content (e.g., jump back to top, jump to end, jump to rough internal

I think the "mobile browser is dead" part is overblown bs, but I'd offer counterpoint to some of your statements: > Web apps are stored in the cloud, not on your device Put another way, web apps can only be run when you ha

If you love IDEA, you may well get the chance to use it for C & C++ soonish, as well, since they're working on a C & C++ IDE now. Hopefully it really will be good for vanilla C - I have an aversion to C++, and little need for

While I agree that IDEA absolutely should be in the list, I'm not sure that it's actually more popular out in the wild. Eclipse, for all its many faults, is without a doubt the most popular. Sadly IMO, but not undeservedly. Networ

Glad to hear you only have minimal side effects from the Strattera. I tried it for a while several years ago, and, while it worked wonderfully (first period of my life where I actually had any reliable sense of time!), the side effects I ha

I wouldn't worry. It's not as if the government could compel our friends at goooogle to give up said passwords. Besides, you don't have anything to hide. Do you?

Not to be "that guy", but that's a C= 128.

Very well deserved! My primary Java IDE had been NetBeans for years, mostly because the rough edges in Eclipse outweighed the extra functionality. Recently I've been doing some Android programming, and found the native lib support in nbandr

Turn on airplane mode. It disables the networking, leaving the rest of the phone working.

As a smaller guy, I find the Mirra to be the best fit for me. The Aeron small is too narrow, and the medium seems to fit, but doesn't (major pain within an hour or so).

Google, 4 to 1. Now, all of my searches were technical; I plan to try again later with more general, "normal people" searches. Bing may do better there. Also, good results from even google searches have become harder to come by in the last

> These meticulous naming conventions- has it anything to do with using a full-blown ide vs vim? What would you think that? If it's because of auto-complete, please understand that this is 2012, and vim is not [just] vi. There are seve

Yeah, I agree. In fact, I've recently switched back to FF as my primary browser. The thing that pushed me over the edge was the way chrome insists I log in to my google account. Granted, it doesn't force you to log in, but the version I r

You can set Chrome to block all plugins. There's a context menu item to selectively run the plugin, and a white-list, as well. Nice. Still, I've recently switched back to FF as my primary, for other reasons.

Good luck with that. Even some of the normals around me are start are starting to get how broken SOPA/PIPA were and how wrongheaded the "content provders" actions have been. Not many, unfortunately, but still ...

No, it's not. If anything, continued or increased economic slowdown will increase piracy, as people have both less disposable income and less regard for increasingly abused intellectual property rights.

I'e never directly given a dime to Go Daddy, for domains or anything else. I don't give a rip about the low-brow ads or the elephant hunting - I just don't like supporting businesses that operate like Go Daddy, and I certainly have no int

For the same reason they pay for online referrals - it's an avenue that drives sales their way. No charity involved. As for the pricing at b&m stores, at least in the case of smaller shops, they simply don't have the ability to price an
