   I have several memories from before 3. The earliest I can pin down is my second birthday. I can distinctly remember the cake (Thunderbird 2) and running around, looking at the bon fire in our garden.

   Maybe, but 8.1 killed all of our VS2005 projects. If you are a developer that doesn't want to do upgrades on potentially fragile build files it is not a god send.

   Would the answer of the inverse question be interesting? Taking our successful landing page, how would you reduce downloads?

   I would imagine if the solo project benefited peers greatly, they could still score well in the peer review. Think of someone building a powerful internal tool. It does mean that any endeavor that doesn't produce quickly would be a bad

   I don't think that is the case. With the banking app from RBS I can perform bank transfers and even pay money to contacts. Apple surely can't be getting a cut of that.

   I received a phone call at work from someone trying to sell JRebel, after all the recruiters that call through to the office(doesn't look good) I had to hide my linkedin profile.

    I despise this UI trend, if I really want to read a page I will jump into Chome's Inspector and fix the CSS. Otherwise I navigate away.

    Yes, okay maybe not on holiday jaunts. Before you can board a helicopter to an offshore platform and have to don a survival suit. With the risk of the helicopter flight being so high it is not really something complained about. I think we c

    Apple only expose the OpenGL bindings via Cocoa. There are many libraries that will expose OpenGL for you. [SDL]( http://www.libsdl.org/ ) and [GLFW]( http://www.glfw.org/ ) are the two most prominent.

    CMD-Arrow (left,right,up,down) will move you to the beginning of the line, end of line, start of document,end of document respectively. I really miss these keys when I am on windows as I find it much less of a hand movement to do.

    You probably should have read the first line of text on that page. > This story appears in my collection Overclocked: Stories of the Future Present, 2007 craphound.com has been Cory's website for as long as I can remember.

    As noted at the bottom of the article this seems another case(see the ms fiasco) of employees not realising they always represent their employer. These two scenarios do a lot more damage to the public reputation of the companies. I don't th

    I think for app.net this can only be a good thing. Even if Dalton does loose some of the time he could be putting into the platform the early stage visibility it gets will be a huge boost to the community. It is still a bit of a shame that

    I would go as far as saying I am cross dominant, but I certainly have a weird mix in that regard. I tend to take watches off as soon as I am stationary (I've lost a few F-91W's this way). I guess you could just take the watch off when you s

    If only they could find an old shed door to cross the river. The similarities between this ongoing xkcd and _why's most recent publican are really interesting. Thematically I find the stories very similar, they feel as though they come from

    All of the tables indicate the use of kcal as the unit. The fact isn't spelled out in the text, but this comment seems more like a pet peeve in terminology than an accurate criticism. It occurs to me, that if all the parts in a conversation

    You should try Galaxy on Fire 2. The trend seems to be towards difficult 3D controls, but you cannot write off the entirety of 3D games because you haven't seen good samples.

    I love the internship application page http://nemaload.davidad.org/jobs . The author does expect any candidate to be perfect before meeting, but sets out a small set of criteria for any potential candidate to research. Probably in the proc

    I think you have hit this point on the head. It is very hard to compare mathematics education between countries. Eastern Bloc countries seem to go a lot further with the secondary level mathematics education, my point of caparison is to Sco

    In OpenGL you can use CoreGraphics to render into a context and convert that data to a texture. This could be done for each string, but doing so you loose the power of the underlying implementation. If there are libraries that make this eas

    OpenBSD has been the model for opensource software release engineering. Their presentations on managing their releases are always worth a look. In 2013 regular quality releases are quite common, but OpenBSD has been releasing on schedule fr

    I can't comment about NZ,but in the UK the 37.5 hours work weeks are a 8:30-5 or 9-5:30 days with an hour long lunch. The number of hours goes up by 5 if you factor all time actually spent 'in office'.

    I really dislike having to go into source code to figure out basic functionality. This is confounded by the amount of uncommented code. For a lot of the cases one or the other will do. No your shader is not self evident.
