   Is Apple forcing you to use Reminders, Notes, Messages, etc? I don't quite follow how your Mac Pro suddenly feels like a phone now.

   If you look at the screenshot of the home screen, you'll notice that this is not an Android device and thus has no Android widgets. So, no, that's not "all this is doing".

   I was surprised about this too. I was expecting a fight after seeing countless unboxing videos featuring people that simply couldn't open it without shredding it with scissors. I cut the two pieces of tape with a knife, and then held the to

   Do you actually think a CEO would take 30 days worth of vacation time even if they had the option to? She'll probably use five of those days at most. She's got her work cut out for her.

   I think the generic term would be something like "HiDPI display".

   This is just Galaxy Nexus, right? My Nexus 7 will still be shipped in 2-3 weeks?

    I'll admit, the new-ish built-in web server in PHP is fantastic and it definitely makes me want to use PHP more often. Configuring Apache, setting up virtual hosts, fixing directory permissions, etc. was horrible. Composer also looks cool,

    Oh, the computers look very nice, but they're a direct response to what Apple puts out. The Thin+Light machine is yet another Ultrabook that competes with the Macbook Air, keeping in mind that the Macbook Air was introduced in 2008 and the

    I don't understand the belief that minimalist design is obvious and that everyone else totally would've designed it the same way. It's almost like when someone walks up to a work of art and remarks that they easily could've done it themselv

    Regarding your confusion over the logo brands (which I shared in), I think some of the choices were made to distance Surface and Windows Phone from the Windows brand. This is why in this concept, Windows Phone is "surface phone", and it use

    That picture is hilarious, it's literally a clone of Apple's Mac line-up, right down to the wireless keyboard and Magic Trackpad.

    Atlassian Stash? It's obviously focused on just repository hosting and it's not "$250/year", but the prices are certainly a lot lower than what GitHub charges.

    Exactly, you download it and then burn the disk image to a DVD or whatever media you'd like to boot from.

    C'mon. http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/tablets-befor... We can argue whether or not it's right for Apple to fight to protect this design, but let's not pretend that these tablets were developed completely independent of the

    From the linked post: You’ll note that all of this software is GPL’d. Which means any Tom, Dick or Harry (or any other awesome name) can build their own binaries and distribute it on their website or repository. And I have absolutely no

    I've heard from Android users that their app (which uses the same techniques) is quite bad as well. A lot of my friends just use the mobile site through their Android phone's web browser.

    It's a shame that it's closed source. I'm trying to install it through the installer, and I'm in "missing shared object file" hell due to things not being named as the binary expects them to be.

    A lot of people have attempted to copy that UI element from Path. There's a few open source libraries for the iOS SDK that will accomplish that. Of course, it looks much better in Path in this case.
