I listen to WREK from Japan via iTunes Radio– in fact WREK, WUSC, and KCRW are the only reason I have to still listen to radio. I can understand not liking it though, I was pretty surprised the first time I was on campus and heard music I

This is a common "issue" in design studios and the like. I've always been the kinda guy who enjoys using a lunch break to clean/fix up/replace the small things, because it's just what I'd do at home. Obviously there are places where people

But don't worry, CircuitLab has been very popular with all the 6.002 people in IRC! The MITx interface is not without its share of bugs.

15" hi-res. 6 hours average, 10 hours if all I'm doing is coding. My average brightness however is 5 dots, though I've been noticing I can get 6+ hours coding on max brightness when I'm too close to a window.

Sooner or later, this sort of money is just going to become completely meaningless. There is no "$20tril check waiting to be cashed", there is an economic bomb in the form of a massive space rock. I'm still very excited and hope they get re

What exactly do you consider slow? Most recently I was getting a consistent 500kB/s downstream on my laptop [edit: while grabbing some rather large PDFs, so continuous downloading]. I've yet to give it a go on iOS.

Oh god, PIN codes... Two years ago my girlfriend and I had to go to our banks and get cash. Luckily they're right across the street from each other, so we walk in to mine first. I go to the ATM, tap in my pin, do my thing and we move across

Thanks for this! A quick note that if you're using Alfred, it reads Spotlight comments too although I haven't tested it to see what effect it has on results.

As a counter argument, people on the high end do actually buy equipment to suit their preferences in that way. If you want classical music in perfect clarity, many people feel that Grado cans are like sticking a sharp needle through their s

While this may be true, is it too much to ask of a company as large as Google to maybe not just slap some boilerplate ToS on their brand new services? Surely they could be a little more specific and allay unnecessary fears while still pro

How do you assign a local fax number? Is there any way to associate it with an existing number? Small businesses might start leaping for joy...

Agreed. I signed up anyway to try it out before recommending it to some people, but the request for contacts will be a dealbreaker for some.

Granting the high level of speculation involved, but with any frequency wouldn't these sorts of things be quite the wildfire hazard? Or is the impact and subsequent disintegration and boring of the object negate any heat/fire? Yes, I'm clue

I'm not saying I don't believe any of this (I certainly do), but this whole business has HUGE bubble or even scam potential. Think those damn "moon-plots" but on a larger, perhaps government scale. Imagine some of the poor smaller governmen

Because when they make a persuasive argument, it forces you to work harder. To confront the issues that other people are bringing up. If you don't want that then you can make software just for yourself. Otherwise it's best to keep an open e

It's still fair to point it out since you can certainly go the other way (make something and then make people want it) successfully. There's bound to be frustration in a company that has forgotten how to balance the two, and these days Micr

ESPN has a scores API that's in beta for "premium partners" only at the moment. Unless someone here can say otherwise, I'd recommend against using FanFeedr as their data doesn't look to be too accurate or up-to-date.

It's worth it. A great aunt bought me the Hobbit when I was around five, and I immediately took to the whole Lord of the Rings series, Silmarillion, etc. By 10 I'd read every Tolkien book I had ever heard of, including ones by his son that
