Not about Data plan, actually. When I was in Delhi, a $25/mo data plan gave me unlimited data usage with 100GB fair usage limit. I still could not listen to music and video all day - the battery bottleneck is much tighter.

This just shows Google just doesn't get design. Sure, they may have figured out CSS3 and made Gmail super hard to use, but they don't really get design. Ever noticed how Facebook kills a feature? Slow, steady, they drift you away, showing y

I am almost certain the pointer aliasing thing could be fixed by providing the proper optimization tag at compile time. I remember back in introductory systems classes, we saw mind boggling optimizations from GCC at O3 - the pointer example

I think after reading the article, it is pretty clear they did not notice the routing issues until they noticed slowed down performance and till their consumers complained. That makes perfect sense, you don't really dig deep into routing un

Except for handsfree picture taking, I'm not sure what this device does that Pebble watch does not. I'm much more comfortable wearing a watch on my hand than mounting a camera on my face. Also, whenever I do take pictures I really wanna tak

That is true for India too. If one does not make top ranks to get into IITs, NITs or any other government subsidized college, they are forced to attend lower tier private institutions (Yeah, in India private colleges are at lower end) which

Sure, but a DA should understand the law both in word and spirit. The job of the government ultimately is to protect citizens, not prosecute them for benefit.

I sure hope that the grid is religiously chronological. Otherwise, this design has the same fundamental flaw that the current timeline has - rearrangement of stories that is not easy to predict. The current timeline moves stories from left

This is not the same. Google Sync has nothing to do with built in iOS mail client - which only supports 15 min fetch from Gmail. Correction: It actually is. Gmail is accessible via Exchange on iOS which supports push.

One distinct advantage: Outlook is supported for Push mail on iOS mail client.

Apple has always been pretty much rigid about results of their tests during repairs or replacements. To be fair, I got almost every single part of my Macbook replaced after a surge incident that was caused internally - but I have never been

Apart from explaining what GTD is, you might wanna make new screenshots. From the third screenshot on the website, it makes it looks like over 75% of the screen is about GTD and Getting to Know the app. It looks like some info handout for G

Have you even tried developing for BB10? Converting a mobile webapp to BB10 to native app takes merely few hours. BB10 supports Phonegap out of the box (their dev tools have simulator for it). They have their own version of something very s

I actually prefer the way the new Maps look, specially when I am walking. As a photographer I do end up in the wild often and the new Maps is just better and more fluid to browse the surroundings, specially in satellite. If only it had the

Every time I go on Color webpage, they have a completely different product under same name. I feel sorry for people getting tricked with ridiculous pivot attempts.

GoDaddy has been providing me with excellent customer support for a decade. I'm not sure what the hate is all about. Sure, they didn't take my side in the SOPA debate, but I'd rather live in a world where everyone is entitled to their opini

People like to zoom, but I'm not entirely sure if a 480mm effective focal length is what most people zoom to. When I used a point and shoot, 6x zoom seemed enough, but that's only one man's opinion. GPS and wireless access pisses me off too

What is the point when the pictures will be all weird. To get 21x zoom on that sized camera, you need a horribly small sensor. The sensor on this is a bigger than iPhone's, but they also crammed in 16mp. Now, that screwed them to limit the

Facebook is, in a way, damaging the industry. PG already spoke about how their mishandled IPO could hurt the funding landscape for startups. If this happened to a non-technical coffee shop owner, it would turn him off from the "whole social

I believe the reviews are bad because of people's high expectations. This is essentially an interview transcript. Most PG interviews are laid back and most Andrew Warner's are about getting the information out rather than creating a documen

Well, even Nokia and Microsoft in principle borrowed from iPhone and Android success. Nobody is blaming them. Because everyone can see that they haven't copied. They have borrowed and "built upon" the state of the art. Android has shameless
