Nevermind. You click on the clip first, and then you get the option to delete it.

Can I delete clips?

Congrats to the Lightbox team. Admittedly, I never used Lightbox (nor Instagram for that matter), but it seems like Facebook is really terrified of photo-centric startups, and gobbling them up as soon as they show any promise. Why is that?

Xort.com is a bad name. If I heard "Xort.com" without seeing it, I would try to type it as "Zort.com" and probably wouldn't be able to come up with Xort.com on my own. That's also why I hate the Web2.0 trend of dropping vowels. It incurs to

Foo, Bar, and Baz: Not Having It Posted on April 21, 2012 These placeholder variables are the worst thing to happen to language documentation in the modern era. And so there’ll be none of this on Lingua Pragma. I’ll illustrate the problem b

I didn't know it was all written in Assembly. Is there any documentation to help with reading the code? Thanks for the code btw. PoP is a landmark in the history of computer games.

Having mediocre design skills, I struggled before to create even the simplest landing pages for my mobile apps. Like the article says, I was simply trying to create a one-page site that contains a short description of an (upcoming) app, and

If you don't understand it, why use it? Is it that important for you to do this in one line of (relatively obscured) code, than in 2-3 lines of readable code? For the record, the do() block defines @ARGV (which normally holds the command-li

There are always two sides for each story. You hear about a lot of successful companies that rejected a buyout, only to die in obscurity. I guess it all depends on the shareholders and what they want to do. Sometimes it's good to take home

The A4 does use this technology, but Apple certainly did not invent it (though I wouldn't be surprised if they claimed so). It has been used in cell phones for years, and only recently others are starting to adopt it, and extend it to plac

Unfortunately, I can't detect sarcasm over the internet. But, your answer (along the lines of "I'm a perfectionist and a workaholic") is the most cliche answer possible. As an interviewer, I never ask this question to begin with. But whenev

You might be correct, but that money doesn't go only to Asus or Motorola or Acer or Samsung. There are tens of other components in the tablet that are made by other companies (touch screens, cpus, DRAM, usb controllers, LEDs, gyroscopes, ne

He said that "they are running it from backstage", which doesn't seem to be true. It seems to be a video running on the machine on stage (hence the VLC controls). Given the rumors that Intel is delaying IvyBridge, it is very possible that t

Age is not the real reason. Perl was first released in 1987, while Python was released in 1991, Tcl in 1990, and Ruby in 1995. I believe that Perl's success is due to the fact that it was written to scratch an itch. Larry Wall didn't care m

(Apologies for going off on a tangent) Personally I don't like domain names like cool.com or color.com because they are impossible to google. Apple is probably the exception that proves this rule.

Not sure if the Lego example is a good one. Lego has been available for over 60 years, and still going strong. According to his website, the OP is 18 years old. If his fears had any basis, then Lego would have disappeared way before he was

I interviewed with their ASIC design team last year (they made me an offer, which I did not take). the 1000 number might be large, but definitely in the ball park. Designing a microprocessor is not that easy. Besides the ARM core(s), you ha

To me it felt like Apple were clinging to straws by touting Siri as a "feature" of iPhone 4S. What was more interesting to me are the thoughts that came to my head. My first thought was of Clippy. My second one was of the McCain/Palin campa

You are right. But, I have an extensive library of PDF files that I'd like to read. I expect many people do too. Most are technical documents with equations, graphs and other images. I would love to have an e-ink based reader that will rend
