   She's not if I let her keep her sleep schedule! A couple of days off of it and I'm afraid she's going to move in to a tin garbage can though... I am trying/have tried other methods of sleep optimisation though. I tried G

   I hate these articles. Not because they aren't useful, but because I wake up a couple hours before my partner, and she sleeps on a schedule that's so precise I'm not sure she's human. I'm jealous, and in order to no

   Thanks for a really informative post! You haven't changed my view, exactly, but you've definitely made me more optimistic about the next 3 years. I guess a lot of this depends on how well NBNCo executes the new vision. Are we stee

   Note: If it doesn't work the first time, try a few more times. The image may not load the first time and it rotates images. I was very disappointed it didn't work the first few times.

   You're technically correct, which is obviously the best kind. However, on lesser kinds of correctness, I would argue that the Google Services type model at least violates the spirit of that decision. IMHO, the ability to silently add p

   I remember when Android was starting to gain popularity (around 1.6 I suppose), one of the key decisions that I really liked was that Google apps would have no more access to the OS than any other apps. There was no preference to Google. Th

   The thought experiment was that the companies went bankrupt and their products stopped working. A world without the company or its products. That probably should have been clearer, since if Amazon went bankrupt most of its products probab

   Frankly, I'm not sure that this is 10 years off. In fact, I'll be a little disappointed if we don't see it in 7.

    But that's sort of my point too. There's nothing substantially different about an iPhone or iPad anymore. The PC/Laptop Macs are a little more substantial, but I think that's probably because of HP/Dell/Toshiba

    I have to disagree with one of the final conclusions of the article. For me, at least, it's far easier to imagine life without Apple or Amazon than it is to imagine life without Microsoft. Say Amazon goes bankrupt tomorrow. All of thei

    Is it possible that false positives like this open Google to defamation lawsuits? They're making an assertion that is false (and that their webmaster tools show they know to be false), and broadcasting that in a way that definitely has
