I do not know if this has anything to do with anything, but I do know that warmer weather affects how much I eat. Whether summering in Italy or in hot weather in the US, I don't experience hunger the same way as when I am in cold weath

I really like Clementine and since I triple boot (Linux, Mac, Windows) I wanted a player that would work the same regardless of OS.

Netflix is unwatchable during prime time where I live. However, I have also noted that on two separate occasions when I began examining the Frontier FIOS site, I received a personal knock on my door from my local Comcast representative. Wo

Life is difficult. For me, the point is to let yourself grow stronger to meet those challenges rather than giving up. I like to think that God is actually deliberately making things harder for me on/with purpose. Keeps me fighting.

I've found the dual screen far superior to OS X. The Start menu appears on the screen (right or left) based on which Windows button you pressed (left or right side of space bar). You can also open the charms menu on either screen, although

I've had my 24" iMacs apart to replace hard drives, fix CD drives, and above all to clean out dust. You cannot even clean the dust out of the fan easily!

One piece of good advice: "A good deal today will be a good deal tomorrow." Live by that advice and you will always be free to walk away and think about it.

Once blasphemous speech is outlawed, every religious group will have a new tool to use against any criticism. There are a lot of Christians in America, and for the most part they don't complain against negative speech against their religiou

I use AutoZoom for Chrome. Although the fonts here are too small for me, so too at some other sites. It is amazing how many sites have css that does not work properly when zoomed. I can't even read HN on my iPad because of the font issue.

I concur. I've seen this exact behavior on two different systems when the hard drive was beginning to fail. Swapping the drive fixed the problem. My friend had installed a new larger drive that was causing the problem, whereas there were

This is also a great tutorial/introduction to many of the features available to web developers. If I were teaching a class on this subject, I would take students through this just to give them an idea of all they could create.

My immediate concern is your definitions of success, growth, and self-sacrifice. You have narrowed your discussion to a person working a startup, but you have chosen too broad of language. Instead of growth, I think you should have use the
