Why is it mindless propaganda? And is that article's point (and I assume your point) that 9/11, the london bombings and the Oslo bombings were conducted by government agencies?

I like to think of it this way: When writing code it is imperative to to get great feedback, as often as possible. In a number of cases, TDD helps you do that. In cases where it don't, well, it doesn't, so don't use it.

Some of the albums I've been listening to (with HQ enabled) have raised red flags, I've recognized compression artifacts. But I dismissed this as being deliberate, a weird sounding microphone, an effect, or whatever, since the HQ box was ch

They seem to assume Safari is the only OS X browser that can play HTTP live streaming on a Mac.. I'm pretty sure Chrome can (via Quick Time?), and I know for sure that VLC can. Can't think of a way of feature detecting HTTP live streaming

The last couple of years, Steve has said that he's sorry he can't find a bigger venue. Perhaps that's the problem? Which venue could the conference use to support more attendees?

I disagree. In a real programming environment I'd notice immediately after running the code.

I'd write that snippet the following way: for (var i = 0, ii = list.length; i < ii; i++) { sum += list[i].amount; } Or: for (var i = 0, ii = list.length; i < ii; i++) sum += list[i].amount; Ther

Thanks. That link also works with JavaScript disabled, something the original link doesn't. Makes me shiver when a simple blog requires JavaScript in order to access the content.

I hope Apple solve this by creating a consumer version or mode of OS X with a sandbox similar to iOS. I'd love if my mom had no way of installing software that could break the computer, without doing scary sounding stuff like "jailbreaking"

Isn't that a slightly misleading title? Seems like Android uses some code from projects that Nokia has contributed to, and those libraries are low level OS stuff also used in Meego etc. The title gives the impression Nokia contributed direc

Didn't Rails solve this problem? Simple apps are simple to deploy. Everyone use Apache with Passenger. And Rails itself makes it easy to get results fast. You're up and running in no time. Of course, if your web app is advanced, Rails may o

Rails has a history of doing things with JavaScript that many developers disagree with. RJS is a prime example, where you would write Ruby code that generated JavaScript that assumed you used the Prototype.JS framework. And it wasn't until

I prefer JsTestDriver to any other JS test framework out there, for two reasons: 1. You get feedback in your terminal 2. It scales better - run in multiple browsers with one command, output results in junit XML for CI tools, etc.

Afaik you can. Relative to an observer looking at a black hole, time is at a complete standstill on the surface of the black hole, thanks to the extremely strong gravity. This time stop is (again afaik) why black holes stop shrinking.

Afaik the answer is that the limit is the limit, and the speed of light is unlimited - but there is a limit, so the speed of light is the same as the fastest speed possible. So the limit is not the light's speed, they just happen to be the
