I experienced that bug with Google Chrome, it use to happen when I open "too many" tabs (10 or more). Not sure if that's google's or apple's fault.

I notice a trend here in HN, the first comment will most of the times be opposite to the article (this thread is just another example).

I use google search a lot, when some sentence just doesn't sound right, I google it, if it has thousands or millions of results I accept it as right, if it has just some hundreds or less I rephrase it until I find a "popular"

Because of Columbus I and most of Latin Americans are born, most of us are a mix of European and Native Americans. If all of that population was really killed, there would be just white people in the spanish and portuguese territories.

Agree, for me is easier to quickly find answers going directly to chrome's url/search bar, type my query and find the answer either in SO or Wikipedia. Even though SO and Wikipedia's search engine are good, they certainly are

I don't dislike Java as a language I learned OOP with it, actually, Java made programming exciting for me when I was learning. But what I really dislike are some tools around Java, maybe this is totally subjective, but I don't lik

I'll oversimplify my question, how will be possible for us to get useful information from a system based in randomness? For my understanding, I can ask a quantum system: is this a cow? and it'll answer: 1. Yes 2. No 3. 72

It's simple, Sublime 2 starts after 2 or 3 seconds, sublime 3 starts in less than a half second, 3 seconds don't seem like a lot, but could you imagine every program you have starting in less than a second? It would be a really di
