To add: a) there will be at least 1 company focused on android which will be protected with the cloth that is Google's legal team. b) Google can make Motorola better c) Google can make hardware to go with their software. d) Google can final

I am actually against this. Regardless of how nice this is, this goes against the OS nature of Android. HTC is treating android as a free (beer) operating system (bla bla bla microsoft/apple). But when they realize that their phones are not

"For an app selling 10-20 copies a day, how much would it have cost that company, paying a PR firm, to get it infront of 101k new users (forget about payment)... how many tweets would you have to get out or blog posts written to make 101k p

I don't think they were aware of this. Not from the post. But in the end YES that is the agreement, hence why rotten to the core. Amazon always reserves the right to do whatever they want period. Its not your product, you are now an amazon

Lets say you are right, the dev is saying "omg look at teh numberz i lost 100 thousandz salez" Note: Sales did not pick up after the free app sale. Therefore that free app sale was actually a waste of time. Furthermore their app requires a

That's a bit 'tarded. Why not just use google by default? You confuse me. If you don't like DDG don't use it, write a post about it, the end. This shows nothing. Wish I could downvote.

Do the same thing that is done in stackoverflow.com. Except that needs to be combined with fetching the title/basic info from the article and trying to combine it with recent articles from past couple of days.

First point is that MS Points or any "points" is something from a company. The company sold you those points and thus are liable for business ethics and so on if brought up. BitCoins are not sold. They are traded and generated. There is no

Are women incapable of understanding that people can be a-holes especially in an unregulated "sporting" competition? Lots of a-holes out there. Just put a warning, let women know, and offer advice if necessary. This is just plain ol' wrong.

There was no indication that any info was even sent to the user, for all he knows all was fine (and still is) just unresolved. He did his job and reported the bug in detail, oracle needs to do their job and reach out to him. Can it be repro

Heres the problem with sony's captcha. If you are dealing with a small site that nobody gives a shit about, asking users to answer "what is one plus two" and ALWAYS accept an answer of 3 is enough. If you are sony, you need better because t

Not just looks, it solves certain big usability problems I have with regular selects or checkboxes for values. However the few non-native problems are indeed problematic. We got brainpower here, lets make it work!

Actually that works quite well. If your photo accounts, your whatever accounts etc are all tied to a non-google login, then it won't matter that your google account is gone. THE PROBLEM is that many places only accept google/facebook if not

How true. I must say, if I had to date right now, I think I'd want to hang myself. And sometimes just having to take care of my daughter forces me to just stop doing work and focus on life for a minute. Ah sleep, the mythical two headed uni

Well, then let the prices be fair, they will enable other small businesses to rise up and make more efficient models. That is no real excuse, and these companies are making enough money. Ask yourself if the profits they make are not too muc

This is all well and good, but in reality the phrase "fix your own house before fixing someone else's" applies. If we can't have a good and fair government by the definition of the people, then can we really expect to fix other governments?

I'm sorry its a bit hard to have this knee-jerk reaction without at least having some background into the matter. Did Aaron in fact break into any systems? Or did he legitimately access data and then get "flagged" for knowing too much? htt

Edit: I call my wife Anna all the time. However there are many Annas in my phone book. It would be really good if it remembered my "favorite" choice for a given query. Probably just give weights to things that it finds, and sorts by that.

1) Just because your technical co-founder got there requirements, is smart, and can do this stuff on his/her own, does not mean that you can EVER be hands off. It is demoralizing AND does not build a close relationship between you two. 2) L

I propose we write an android/iphone game for that. As the android bot attacks patents. With the last boss being balmer who will throw "developers" at the little android's shield of awesomeness. It'll be mortal combat meets zelda. Who's in?

I'm sorry I must disagree. Its not a scam in the classical sense but it is one. Its like the real-estate sites that ask for a credit card and a free trial, to cancel you must CALL between 3-4pm on a Wednesday when their lines are busy AND t
