You are smart if: you realise that formulating smartness is not smart. Bugger.

Sounds to me like you haven't read much of his correspondence. Are you seriously suggesting a ban on criticising one particular person?

Everything else aside, why $1m? It seems like a bit of a coincidence that a well-researched costing of a well-thought-out plan just so happens to be the same as the first number people generally pull from their arse when they think of being

So, boiling your original objection and subsequent explanations down to a single sentence, you think I'm unaware of the fact that there are exceptions to my original statement, let alone just about every statement ever made? I can assure yo

You're assuming that I'm drawing attention to the shit, when actually I try not too because I'm not interested in it, let alone the almost inevitable anger. But, the shit it comes a-flowin' anyway. They do the whole thing by themselves; che

Everyone's full of shit when they get caught cheating. Shit and - if attention is drawn to the shit - anger.

Cluley ignores obvious; sees vanity as only motive shocker! Anyone want to club together and buy that guy a great big mirror to hang on the wall behind his desk?

Bb (and harmonics), if there happens to be anyone interested :) Personally I don't mind it - it's the sound of international football.

Just make the filter optional and default, like Google's image SafeSearch. Next?

Forgot to mention that I have the words "Just stop stopping" on the wall behind my monitor - it might be the hardest thing in the world for me to do, but knowing how simple an instruction it all boils down to really helps me to guilt myself

Fair of failure - welcome to the club. All the other alternatives you have covered. It even sounds like you're looking for confirmation, rather than an answer you don't know. I'm with you - I procrastinate, blame other stresses, take breaks

If it was a parallax issue, there would be fringes of colour on anything tall. (The plane is very low in that image, probably going to or coming from the runway just to the southwest)

I once installed McAfee on a friend's computer, against my better judgement (he's a complete technophobe, had been sold it at some generic computer shop and been scared of installing it himself but sunk-investment and all that). McAfee said

"Never send more than 4 emails per minute" is on my golden rules list, right under "never roll your own crypto", and for much the same reason - it's too easy to make a mistake and have to live with dire consequences. Just over 5k per day, q

Having read the article with the editor's comments in mind, it looks quite clear to me that they're guilty as charged: There was perfectly adequate disclaiming of the fact that the iPhone details were preliminary and that neither was a clea

Dunning Kruger is a fundamental flaw in the functioning of our hardware/software, and is all religion needs to survive indefinitely, IMHO... but here's to hoping.

Others have pointed out that you need to read, challenge yourself and work hard. I'd add that this is a lifestyle change, not a quick fix - you need to treat it accordingly, or accept that this is not something you can do indefinitely. You

I agree with you on that score, but my point was context. In the context of an article about being frugal, it's valid - he's not failing to understand your perspective, he's writing it off as irrelevant to his aim.

Personalised service and nicer surroundings? Meh, I just want to buy stuff. If I want to hang around chatting to people, I'll go to a bar. Questions? Nah, I've done my homework already, and the answers didn't come from salesmen. Faster? How

If you have a good product that you believe in, yep. What more could you want in a company than the honesty to say "if we're not what you want, fair enough, allow us to help you anyway"?

Thanks for those. I've not yet found time to switch, but it'll be to Colemak if and when I ever do. I'm a guitarist, so intricate finger tangos sound like my kinda thing :)

Long story short: Dvorak is better than Qwerty by a long way, Colemak is better still, but not by as much. If you know Qwerty and were thinking of learning Dvorak, learn Colemak instead. If you know Dvorak already, don't worry about Colemak

I have exceptionally bad memory for numbers. I used to store the PINs for my credit cards on the back of business card, disguised as phone numbers. "Malcolm: (xxxx) 1234xx" was 1234 for mastercard, "Val: (xxxx) 1234xx" was 1234 for Visa, et

I didn't mean comfort (although I suspect that it may come into it more than you give credit for). I meant hassle; effort - should I just scribble notes, or will I spend a couple of minutes thinking about what info I want to record before I
