No it doesn't. What does it do when you double-tap HN page on iPhone? Do that on an Android and see what happens. All it does on iOS is zoom till it removes the padding. On Android, it makes it a readable list, with correclty sized upvote i

I don't get this article. Web browsing and notifications were the reason I loved Android more than iOS. The double-tap to zoom on Android browser..just works! It perfectly flies in to the content, adjusts text size beautifully and rearrange

It is important to note that the points 1,2 and 4 are not necessarily disjoint. You can do them in the same order.

IE4, I believe, was the first version included in the OS or came in automatically with updates. I think IE3 came in one of those internet startup kits.

In it's day, IE was not an inferior browser. Quiet the opposite, actually.

The output page does look pretty interesting, specially for debugging code collaboratively as one can share the output URL. The page contains execution time, errors and the code, very well arranged. That said, 'print 5' in python took 11 se

With that list of yours, you are not being hard enough on banning the internet. I would suggest limit total internet usage to 1 hour (there are browser extensions to help with that), delete all social apps on phone, use IE6 so most good stu

I think that is understood. The war between MS and Linux is always about personal computing. Otherwise, the comparison points are endless. QNX beats pants off of Linux in Embedded systems. Microsoft beats the pants of off any *nix system in

He's not a PR guy. Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Sinofsky MSDN blogs are usually full of stuff MS engineers are doing. I think he is trying to write to a more broader audience than just developers (bloggers, social media peopl

Nice work. But how does constant background location track works for iPod touch? Don't we need constant wifi connection to make it work?

This is so good. Anybody else feel its way better than Path? The introduction on the homepage is a bit vague though. Maybe mention that it organizes by date or some more clue. I had no idea what this service does unless I visited the live d

Realtime? I don't think it's realtime at all. The file has to be uploaded, my friend has to be on your site to even get the link to the file. Hows that realtime? Ge.tt is more realtime! You get the link even before your file is completely u

If they sell this at $49 with a 2-year data plan contract - would rock! Two reasons: 1 - This is a brick if you don't have internet. 2 - This is a brick if you can't use it on road. People have internet at homes. So consistent always on int

Color's elastic network would be if only here were more people in it. I think they suffer with a massive chicken and egg problem. I hope they figure things out. I am yet to use Color with another person in the same room. I think Google is a

I still do not see the app on the app store. Is it regional launch?

That's only true for introductory and some algorithms courses. After that, it diverges mostly into C and a bunch of custom languages, such as MATLAB for theoretical courses. I go to CMU and I haven't really touched Java since freshmen year.

Sure I will. But if he writes me a letter letting me know that I suck and that I should rather die than writing buggy code making millions of lives miserable everyday, I'd be fine. He didn't throw stones at Mozilla labs, he filed and commen

If someone writes that kind of bug report for code that I write, the first thing I would do is take my shoe and beat myself to death. The man being frustrated is your fault. High chances there are million others who feel the same, at least
