Actually, not quite - it uses UIWebView, which doesn't have some of Mobile Safari's JavaScript improvements, so no matter how hard it tries it won't quite be able to keep up.

There's a sufficient mass of people with dots in their e-mail addresses that it's worth checking for an at and a dot, even if you don't require it - just to check that they haven't typed a comma or something instead.

Actually, a media PC is the one time where it's ok to tinker around and build something esoteric. Sure, you might need to fix it every three months, but who really needs a media centre? The worst that happens is that you have to watc

Apple's thoughts on the matter (and on many other matters) is that the user shouldn't ever have to learn to do anything complicated, and rather than risk them not knowing how to do something, they'd rather remove the feature

You can't sell services to everything . If you want to sell support for your open-source product, then you get more money (from more support contracts) by deliberately making the interface obtuse and hard-to-use. The GNU manifesto say

Tree Style Tab - tabs should be a tree, not a list. The last I heard, Chrome had a vertical tabs feature for a while, but that didn't allow nested tabs.

The majority have made a choice, but not a conscious choice. Not only do many people still chase the latest shiny thing or hand over their details willy-billy without thinking of the consequences, but it's quickly becoming the default to do

It really depends on what you're doing. For me (Java), IDEA is about 50% beautiful but 500% functional, and that's what leaves me with it.

Not quite - it shows that they think you should manage files on your Android phone. iOS is designed to hide files, but Android has always had it as an option, which is represented in its interface. Back when I used Android (owned a Nexus

IntelliJ IDEA has both "expand selection outward" and "wrap selection in if/trycatch/while/etc" functions. They both work pretty much how you describe them here. They're language-dependent, too, so they work in any language that the IDE can

You want to know what the Zoom button (the green one) does? Here's what it does: it toggles between user-managed size and app-managed size, where the user-managed size is the size that you last resized it to, and app-managed size is the siz

Yeah, that's the right way round. Crazy, huh? The only reason I can think of is to have parity with the "MacBook Pro with Retina Display".

I don't know why they didn't stick with just iPad 3 and iPad 4. Maybe people have different reactions to version numbers? In any case: The third-generation iPad ("The new iPad") was released last Spring. The fourth-generation iPad ("iPad wi

Put it this way: Facebook has a very good reason to sell your data and limit API access; App.net does not. While there's nothing technical stopping them from suddenly targeting ads based on your posts or making sure that you can only use th

I'm not sure I like this. It's generally considered that there's no effective way to measure productivity[0]. Whenever you introduce metrics, programmers end up gaming it: pay them by lines of code, they write too many lines of code; pay th

Not only is Siteswap used to turn tricks into sequences, it's used to get them back out again. Anyone with a few minutes to spare should try Juggling Lab to see what the tricks look like in practice: http://jugglinglab.sourceforge.net/bin/

IIRC, the correct protocol with network testing is to prompt the user first that it's going to connect to another host, so they can skip the tests if there's something wrong with their network (or the site on the other end). The other way t

Mentally, I perform no-written-operator multiplication first, then anything else, so I can see why the calculators (and WolframAlpha, in some cases) are getting the intention wrong: "6 ÷ 2x" gets parsed as "6 / (2 * x)" "6 ÷ 2 * x" gets par
