This article is talking about apps that are in the app store, but in the case of iOS are basically just UIWebViews. Exposure is some of the reason they aren't mere mobile sites. Since UIWebViews those lack access to the Nitro javascript eng

Isn't it fun to explain that to provide SSO to Office 365 you effectively need 8+ ADFS servers and a couple of pairs of load balancers (or NLB) spread across at least two data center locations?[1] At least now dirsync is 64-bit so they've r

You may be thinking of a Steelcase Leap or similar. The Aeron armrests don't slide in, they just pivot. I just had to look up the guide http://www.hermanmiller.com/content/dam/hermanmiller/documen...

I just reached down and fiddled with that. The knob on the right adjusts the tilt tension.

It tells you the permissions requested by an app before you install it. For Path, see the "permissions" tab on this Play Store page https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.path&h...

Interestingly, Android was much better about application permissions for some time. These days though, it seems iOS allows users to have more control. On iOS, for reference, one could install Path but then deny it notification permission (o

Apple added this feature after the previous privacy gaffe from Path. Still though, there's a legitimate use case for asking for your contacts, and it is to help connect you with people you may know who are also on path. You also give them a

Deactivating your account just effectively hides your profile. You're only a couple clicks away from having it all restored if you so choose. They seem quite good at finding ways to screw up, surely they can still find a way to do this unti

In Seattle it shows a snow-capped volcano (Mount Rainier), an illustrated version of the Space Needle, the Pike Place Market sign, and a couple downtown buildings from the viewpoint of Kerry Park[1]. They have a generic rotation of images p

I feel your pain. I'm also unable to go the ceiling light route (solid concrete floors and ceilings). The best solution I've found is sticking a wireless switch on the wall next to the regular light switches. There are ones that look like a

The news, I think, is that there is a software company (actually an institute) just for people with an ASD, with training to help them focus their {personality|condition|disability} into something positive.

Since that's only one of 16 combinations, I checked another. 7.7mil results if you change the 2 to a 3. Well then.

FWIW, a Mac mini server is a regular mini with two 2.5" hard drives (not hot-swappable or even user accessible) and a token to download Server.app from the App Store. Apple can't even be bothered to list a rack mount kit or 220V PDU-compati

Bank of America provides this [1], as does Citibank [2] and likely others. Paypal at one time provided this service as well, but it doesn't seem to anymore [3] 1: https://www.bankofamerica.com/privacy/accounts-cards/shopsaf... 2: https:/

Agreed. As you can see from the image at the top, the "city" they built is a sprawling mess of buildings quite far from the city (Seattle, in the background). Depending on your team, you may need to frequently take Shuttle Connect to get to

You can run your own persona identity provider on your own domain, then use an email address at that domain to log in. You get to control the authentication, the password policy, decide on multi-factor, etc. This actually very much can solv

This is how it goes with most service roll outs. If the people in the suburbs are really miffed that they aren't one of the first areas picked for Google Fiber, perhaps they should consider the downsides of living in the sprawl. Congrats to

They're actually letting you know what data center you're accessing as well. BLU / BL1/2 are "Blue Ridge", in Virginia (a few different towns). SN = San Antonio, TUK/TK = Tukwila WA, AMS = Amsterdam, DB2/3 = Dublin, etc. Sometimes there are

The game honestly works quite well if you do think of it as a co-op game. A real life friend made a region, and I founded a city in his region. You can do things like: - volunteer excess services such as fire trucks, police cars, trash pick

This happens with Win7's start search. Considering that many power users use start search without the mouse (i.e. hit windows key, start typing the name of something, hit enter) it's a really bad implementation. The Mac equivalent (cmd+spac

What about travelers? It seems a bit ridiculous that one cannot legally toss a SIM from another carrier in their phone while traveling.

Yeah, Apple counts it as a release. The updated retina MBP 13" describes itself as an "Early 2013".

Oh, I love the MacBook Air (typing this on one). I'm a sysadmin and we have users (mostly devs) who prefer Linux or otherwise don't like Apple products but desire a similar form factor.
