And what, be yet another Windows OEM? Lots of people have had that bright idea in the last 15 years. No thanks, there are enough of those already. This aspect of OS X sucks but it doesn't mean they should stop making software altogether. Th

> Disabling the creation of .DS_Store files on remote file servers can cause unexpected behavior in the Finder Not much of a solution. Also these files should not be written by default, if at all.

Yeah, this is one of those annoying little dinguses that just makes OS X look crappy. In any file share or similar shared space, only one person has to browse it with a Mac to drop these little turds all over the place.

Exactly. There's no need to equivocate, just call this what it is -- lazy and incompetent.

I can't believe how many people here think this is okay. YES, a web service! Please never apply to a company that I am working for!

As much as I would love to do this, I don't think I could ever bring myself to. If the line is more than about 4 people long I just turn around and walk out, unless I really need whatever the line is for. I'll wait at the post office, but

Must be disappointing for people who bought them. Especially since this one is supposed to finally be The Good Version of Android, apparently.

Dunno. I got one yesterday that I could not remove after trying all sorts of anti-malware and googling to find the actual problem. While running Windows Update get the latest security updates, one or more of the updates failed and left my

You're probably also not making two salaries' worth for doing two roles worth of work. But I know, you guys don't go into startups for the money, right.

A good example of why my suspicions are raised when I see someone getting nostalgic for the "good old days" of the Internet.

I believe that is the first time I have ever seen anyone say XHTML would make something easier. (Just one example: http://mathiasbynens.be/notes/minimal-html )

The whole thing was a sad farce from the start, really. I feel bad for the people who were sincerely anticipating this device, hanging out on forums about it and everything.

That's funny. I used to do backend stuff in C# but about 1.5 years ago switched to front-end development. To me it's so much nicer. I really enjoy using JavaScript, even after C# got all that handy functional/dynamic stuff added to it. An

Well, that's a nice thought. But there's a depression on and people need money, so someone will do it. The US government will find a way, I'm sure.

Man, he is like the best person. I'm a huge fan of all the stuff he actually performs for the public (standup, TV shows, movie work), but I also love how he writes in situations like this. So good.

Nice little write-up. I think I should take "This is an impractical standard to apply to everyday life" more to heart. In conversation I sometimes find myself adding unnecessary caveats to what I say, sort of similar to his "slept in one ti

Jesus, who even has time to sift through this list let alone try all these gewgaws. There's work to be done, don't get too wrapped up in your tools.

I think this is fine, because of course it's dangerous, but the same should go for many other activities behind the wheel. Eating, doing your makeup, any kind of reading... cell phone usage is so not the only thing distracting drivers behin

That is quite an unfair summary of the discussion you're referring to.

It just sounds like an insane amount of work for a tenuous, or even nonexistent, payoff. I work for a company that does not limit my time off, that respects its employees, and generally provides a great working atmosphere. Joining a startup
