I'm guessing this a pivot that actually is moving away from everyday user generated content as facebook already has become increasingly a news and image-macro aggregator/sharer. Why not video I suppose? I imagine forcing video ad

I imagine we're still in the infancy of the "styling" as right now designs mostly are "how do we cram all this stuff inside and make it fit".

The top ten passwords in the in the adobe hack account for 2.8% of all passwords. About 1/35 used one of ten passwords. That's frightening to think about. Thanks for the share.

Notably the study PDF linked is broken, but the link provided to adrianroselli.com provides a good short list for accessibility for dyslexic users which mirror general good rules for typography. The most important take away comes from one f

As someone who's spent a fair amount of time hiking, it really depends on the maintenance of the trails. There's also often false trails even on maintained ones. Humans tend to be far more confident about their directionality than

Exactly, considering the way language works with different language sentence conjugation, even simple things like adjectives in most romance languages have relative to the noun and article, a translation to a language like English in realti

Maybe this is my Northwestern showing but as a (nearly)lifer of the Pacific Northwest, I can honestly say that if I see someone walking, I assume they're out for a walk even when I lived in a town of 2500. I imagine this is the privile

That seems antithetical to the Apple statement about "This could include sensitive information such as your credit card number or street address." Anyway to confirm the only keystroke that google can access are the ones submitted

Some false equivalency in this article: "Francis Collins is an evangelical Christian and famed geneticist who has led the Human Genome Project and the National Institutes of Health. And if you’re saying that conservatives may be tolera

Its pretty apparent that iTunes does too many things at this point in time: Music (Store / Streaming / Radio / Cloud / subscription ), Movies, Apps, phone management, media player management, and encoder. Problem is no o

I wholly agree with this, often it takes some sacrifice; while others play, you're working or living frugally to fund your dreams but this isn't the same as forgoing basic amenities. Also, I don't know the backstory but anyon

To piggy back on this comment, I'm sure I'm not the only one that finds high density displays less fatiguing. That in itself is worth even more than the performance trade offs.

Does anyone else find a Chinese business ops/comms platform problematic? While it might be a solid competitor (technically), I have an inherent distrust from a country without freedom of expression and a knack for industrial espionage.

And at least it seems like Canonical is dogfooding. These wasn't an in-depth review that struck me as masquerading as an objective write up from a non-bias source.

I quite frequently use Bootstrap but with almost all of it paired down to the absolute minimums. Bootstrap 3 (at least) was comprehensible and easy enough to whittle down by commenting out large swaths of UI. Usually, I simply use the Boots

I'm not sure if I'm ready to hand over personal details to Privacy, there's not much assurance other than "We'll never sell your data to anyone". Does privacy.com see where I make all my purchases? Is there a c

No sarcasm meant: I think its biggest problem is there's a market saturation point for the GoPro camera as most of us simply don't live day-to-day GoPro life styles. I discovered quickly that what I need is just a simple steady ca

VSCO has a rather large following among the prosumer crowd, most of the Apple "Shot on the iPhone 6" ads mention VSCO and a photographer friend of mine uses it on his iPad with his 5D on the go. While I haven't used it myself
