I remember reading about this filmmaker in a previous NYT article. It bothers me immeasurably that this sort of harassment (is there any other way to describe it?) happens to people simply because they are trying to shed light on things the

I couldn't have said it better myself. The problem with programs like these is that it's almost impossible to roll them back. They are like a snowball: small at the very beginning, growing larger over time, until at the end they b

Kill 'Em All works well for me too. I know all the other songs far too well to not listen to them and try to sing along in my head.

Based on the various reports of issues with iCloud losing data, I think 1Password is safe. If Apple took the time to make iCloud more robust, useful and transparent it could definitely be a killer feature.

I have no insight into this, but I suspect the ads in the sidebar bring in more revenue than you might imagine. Most of the bandwidth requirements will be handled by the CDN, keeping down AWS traffic costs. CDN pricing is almost certainly l

Sickbeard + SABnzbd has been my go-to combination for months now. Sickbeard is regularly updated, and the integration between the two requires a small amount of initial configuration. From there, just make sure the 2 daemons are running and

But more interestingly, it appears that the law firm may have known about the activities of this lawyer and not done anything about it.

I predict this is going to be as much fun to watch as the Prenda Law case!

With the upcoming release of Pg 9.3, I've been reading a lot more posts and articles about the FDW (foreign data wrapper) capabilities. I had not considered all the things FDW can do, but I'm getting more and more excited the further I get

Features like pg_stat_statements are a major reason why I love Postgres. The dev team makes sure the foundations are rock solid, and then start pouring on the features. If only $work used Postgres...

Most likely, Five Guys would have refused your offer because their lawyers wouldn't want to deal with the inevitable lawsuits from Red Robin. That's not to say that other, smaller players might not have taken the risk. But good on ya for ma

You've hit the nail on the head. Every website these days has widgets, for lack of a better word, that are reused all over the place. Anything we can do to make it easier to package up those widgets so I can drop them in place on a new html

I don't have nearly enough time to keep up on all the latest developments with HTML5, but from what I've read Web Components will be a huge life saver for anyone who works on web front ends. I've been thinking this weekend about how I might

Agreed, the novels are so much richer than the TV show. The level of detail that Mr. Martin put into the world continually blows my mind! I watched seasons 1 & 2 before I started reading the books, and now I'm more interested in finishi

Sounds like a fun project, and a massive win for Netflix too once they get more of these machines in end ISP's. The thing that caught my eye was the massive difference between Rev C & D hardware. They went from 36 x 4TB to 14 x 960GB dr

From what I've read, at least part of the problem is that the SQL standards are very murky and/or contradictory on the definiton of UPSERT-like functionality. And since Pg likes to be standards compliant they have focused on other areas of

For me it's all these things, but most especially the massive difference in battery life. Even on the best tablets you might get around 10 hours of usage. On my old Aztak EZReader Pocket Pro I can easily read 2 Game of Thrones books (~2k pa

I signed up for a free account to play around and am quite impressed. Hosted options are nice, even though I have a Linode account for self-hosted apps. 1) How different is the OpenPhoto webapp from the Trovebox app? Does they support all t

I've enjoyed following the ongoing saga of this case. Many thanks for the detailed followups of each court session. It would be safe to say that the judge has gone with the "nuke them from orbit" option, as it's the only way to be sure thes

But isn't eliminating preventative care like shooting yourself in the foot? Or cutting off your nose to spite your face? My parents are in their 60's and definitely complain about the "system" and the entitlements people feel they deserve.

I don't doubt that there are excellent for-profit hospitals. Chances are I've even used the services of one. One can find good things coming out of nearly every kind of business if you look hard enough. Please don't take the suggestion as a

Others have mentioned it too, but I was blown away with the speed of the renderer! By the time the return key sprang back up, the visualisation was displaying on my screen. How did you do that?

I would agree with you as long as the devices you're referring to are completely automated and rely 0% on the person to do something. My grandmother didn't remember things so well as she got older, so without someone to help her to remember

The money quote for me was this: “If we scaled what Ken is doing,” Brenner says, “you would probably shut down a third of the hospitals in the country. It’s a disruptive innovation. It just guts the current business model.” Wouldn't it be b

In the first scene with the friend confessing to an affair, my first thought was "the friend is about to get shot and then the husband is going to call lawdingo". Whether or not this is a good ad for a lawyer, I loved it all the same. Well

We're finishing up work on a new website design, but I'm very interested in pursuing this idea. I'll watch the talk you linked during lunch time today. If I could save the business a 5 figure license fee with an hour's time... it seems like

First, thank you for the extensive write up. My knowledge of Persona's functionality is only passing, but could it take the place of 3rd party social sign in providers like Gigya & Janrain? That is, if Google, Facebook, etc provided Per
