Among others it can lead to heart problems, as experienced by a relative of mine after 20 years of drinking coffee. So good luck with that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_effects_of_coffee#Risks

I always find myself procrastinating when I think the work I have to do will get me bored out of my mind, so I don't even try.There's loads of little things that could stop you from doing some actual work, but I think the main pro

In the gaming world "indie" refers to small teams who are usually bootstrapped and not owned by some publisher. They try focusing on real game innovation and don't usually have big budgets - at least not when they start out,

You're [dead], create a new account. I don't know why you're banned, your comments are mostly pertinent and not boring. Maybe the admins don't like Europeans ^^.

Well, there are three methods in Opera (that I can think of at the moment) to access bookmarks - through the main menu - which takes a few clicks and maybe modifier keys, through a dedicated toolbar which takes up screen space (I sometimes

I am not very familiar with USA's legal system, but is there no way to sue the troll after winning the trial so that they pay your legal expenses? I know this is possible in some European countries. Also, is there no way to file crimin

I would call that my point. The media isn't reporting the news not because the government was hiding the facts, but because the government controls the media.

I don't think they were trying to hide it.

I guess a lot of people have seen Oz or documentaries about prison life in USA. I think the legitimate question would be - is solitary punishment not preferable to the life in general population?

That site seems to be created specifically for bloated browsers like Chrome. 1981 MB memory used for around 20 tabs? That's crazy. And why would you pack so many tabs on just one single line? In Opera you can (at least for now) wrap your ta

> This is a big usability mistake Not so. That space makes things much easier when dragging the browser window around (i.e. between multiple monitors). And the casual user really does not care.

Sure, because your average US company has the plantation mentality - "the more time the employee spends on the job, the more productive he is", which is obviously not true for software development. The US company sees vacation as wasted tim

The mandatory vacation is there to make sure the employee is well rested, efficient at his job and not incurring extra expenses by becoming prone to illness through overwork. You assume that if there were no mandatory vacation laws your sal

Yes, we do enjoy our tax rates because we know the benefits (such as the average quality of life) are higher than in other parts of the world (such as USA). Check out the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

That would be an expensive lesson, don't you think? Not only for the guilty but for the other drivers as well. I would go for low bars as supplemental safety measures.
