The problem with "big business" is not, and never has been, that it is big. Big businesses tend to be far more efficient in certain areas that benefit from very tight integration and efficient operations, such as retail (Walmart) or managin

The entire point of the Surface Pro is that it is a computer, and doesn't need additional ones to use. Besides, iOS devices haven't needed to plug in to update since (I believe) iOS 5.

Actually, they have a pretty strict policy of not including shovelware, to the point that the Microsoft Stores will, for a small fee, remove all the shovelware from a computer that they didn't even sell.

Toggl and Freshbooks here. I personally love Toggl - some of my favorite features are its "you've been idle" notification that lets you drop, keep, or move the idle time to a new entry, the extended entry autocompletion (autocompletes all f

No, the plugin's name is Sublime CodeIntel (without the space). That's what it is in both the repository and package manager.

I think the biggest complaint from men in divorces is not that they get screwed economically , but that the courts are heavily biased towards giving the mother the children . Sometimes "standard of living" isn't the most important factor

But everyone sees the tedium. The tedium is obvious. You go in, you sit at a desk all day typing, and you go home. This is obviously not the case for every job, and very simplified, but it's the case in most jobs, and, more importantly, i

Actually, it seemed to be more like this: D: Company A is awesome. B: Why not use our product? It's cheaper! [Spam] [Certainly, it could have ended here. But they asked the question - why is it wrong to answer them why you don't use it? Per

This looks interesting, but I can't find where you're supposed to go to download the Windows version, if there actually is one.

But then any company willing to pay a decent price would instantly have their pick of anyone in the workforce. It's called supply and demand. If there's no demand for cheap laborers, the answer is not to make them more expensive to hire, or

Really cool animation. It seems like this could be done in pure HTML/CSS if you used the checkbox (radio button would probably work better) or (possibly) focus hacks.

Nice! One thing I'd suggest for the landing page is a floating bar at the top that allows you to skip around the page and shows your current position - it's pretty easy to get lost on that huge landing page.

I was skeptical when I saw the title, but you make some good points. I still use jQuery, but after reading this (not just this, but various jQuery criticisms) I'd like to do some more research into the alternatives. Haven't used MooTools, b

I wasn't previously aware of YAML, though it seems like it would work very well - even allowing for features like adding/exporting multiple entries.

The problem with replacing email is the fact that, unless you're using the standard email protocols, it's not really email at all. What needs to be done is to write a wrapper around the normal email protocols, and allow integration and inte

Erm, yes, it is superior, as it has all the capability of IMAP and more. See this: http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2007/07/10/34033... .

Nice! I love the simplicity, and the fact that this is actually relatively semantic styling, and doesn't require any extra markup.

I doubt it's "hacked", though it is down. The dreaded "error establishing a database connection" screen is just a generic WordPress error that can show up for a variety of reasons, usually because the database services of the host are down,

IMAP is not, but the superior Exchange ActiveSync protocol is, through m.outlook.com - despite the name, it's just Exchange, so it works anywhere. See http://help.outlook.com/en-gb/140/bb896613.aspx for more details.

I get the feeling that the various "online IDE" projects may be quickly superseded. If anyone could pull that off, it's Github - just getting Github integration working is hit-and-miss with most of the others. If it could include some live
