40 extra minutes in a martian day definitely make things interesting. Going further, how will time work when we're stationed around Saturn's moons? We will probably need some universal units of time that work regardless of how long it takes

I don't understand why people need color monitors.

seriously, though, what's with the blacked-out sections?

So the sections of the horizon that are missing are the martian cities, yes?

How does the author control where this image appears? If there's no visual confirmation/representation, how can they be sure they put it in the right place? Are they inline? Some controls will be needed.

I don't know about svg's, but Pages can do all of this stuff. It's not just a word processor, but a very good age layout tool. You might want to check it out before dismissing the iPad so quickly.

First, as others have mentioned, this guy has already rejected buyout offers. Secondly, these are game developers, not gaming system builders. These guys want this headsets in every house, but don't want to sell them. They want to build the

Yeah, I was coming back to this thread to mention this. The antenna around the outside works fine, so the back could be entirely metal, no glass needed. Very bizarre design.

I find it hard to believe they'll take a step back in the design with that metal/glass back. Although I guess it would be their way of admitting an all-glass back was a bad idea. I'm still hoping they'll manage to fit the larger screen into

This is the best, simplest way to describe what's going on. Well said. Personally, I think this is the ideal behavior. I want a random playlist, but want to play through the whole thing as time goes on. Pure shuffle would give me a new play

Do you consider SMS private communications? Your cellphone carrier is just as likely to eavesdrop on your SMS history as FB does your chats.

That and the frowny face say conflicting things. Are you happy to be working in the states?

I got into some of the basic codecademy javascript class, and did enjoy it, and also complete CS101 and CS253 in Udacity. That's in Python, so the comparison may not work all that well, but with the videos, homeworks, and forums, I learned

Please build an informative landing page. Even if it's just a couple sentences (maybe these two from your comment?) and a screenshot. Thanks

I would just like to thank the OP and the Atlantic for including a tl;dr section, is this becoming standard practice in our 140 character world?

You know that tumblr is empty right?

I took CS101 the first time around, which did have hard due dates. Now I'm in CS253 and the homeworks are much more flexible. They still have dates, but they are more for when the solutions are posted, and homeworks can be submitted after t

That sounds like an interesting project for an indie app developer. foursquare, highlight, and others have been working on geofencing stuff, so it's not impossible.

That lackluster Google experience is exactly why Apple is building a replacement in-house. They are sick of dealing with Google undercutting them.
