I was using Chrome Version 26.0.1410.65 on Mac OS X 10.7.5. Opera 12.15 is apparently not compatible since it lacks data URLs. Safari Version 6.0 (7536.25) freezes at the same place. Firefox 20.0 gives me an error in a dialog box saying tha

I was disappointed when I realized that the image of Africa in the background wasn't for scale.

The Good Doctor has been dead for decades, unfortunately. If you want to learn more about him, you can read his (amazing) two-volume autobiography, In Memory Yet Green and In Joy Still Felt.

Why does everything have to be social? Reading for me is a profoundly private experience. I get away from the world, I get away from people, and I sit alone and read. It's a way of relaxing and refreshing myself without worrying about the k

A lot of people seem to have said/thought this whenever this particular business comes up. What about a "premium" level for a higher price that allows for a better profit -- show the customer a list and allow them to pick two or three thing

It's easy to make a "zombie-proof house," but it's not easy to make one that you can withstand a long-term siege in. You'd have to either beat off the zombies or come up with a way to feed yourself, otherwise you've just made a nice-looking

It really bothers me how, over the last 10-15 years, caffeine has gone from something people use to jump-start their day to some kind of... fad drug. People brag about how many cups of coffee they inhale every day, how many liters of soda t

You could sell yourself a bit better. "noob developer with weak skills" doesn't scream "hire me." Embrace the positives. Say that you're a recent graduate with a good basic grounding in programming in X, Y, Z and willing to learn whatever y

My first thought when I read about the funding was that they would need a pretty robust back-end. Not only are they storing pictures to relay to other people in an area, but Color also has to catalog them several ways: geographically, by pr

> ¥200,000 ($2,470) a month This is a bit of a false comparison, because 200,000 yen has about the same buying power here as 2000 USD does in America -- maybe a bit less. These guys really are underpaid. I scoffed at the story from the

Word-of-mouth, Facebook page, Twitter, various online communities I'm a part of. Part of the challenge is being "always on" and believing in my product (my book) and passing that belief on to other people. The way to look at it, I think, is

Thanks! I'll think about how to integrate everything nicely during the blackout. Not going to change anything now since I don't want to get caught with my pants down. Edit: I put a one-page sample on Lulu if you're curious.
