Looks like someone needs to do some leaking down at the Wired office. That would be interesting, particularly if the chat logs were "leaked" to Wikileaks. Would they still publish the logs, even if the logs meant life imprisonment for Bradl

I'm reminded of the old adage: Science. If you aren't pissing someone off, you aren't doing it right.

Here's the thing: Sure. "Old people" exist. They are often in charge of things. Many of them read blogs and surf the internet. Do you really, honestly think that somebody who surfs the internet and reads blogs, especially blogs about video

That's truly fantastic. I don't have much use for Spanish->English, but I'm going to buy it anyway for the sheer "wow" factor. Congratulations.

By "pirates", I mean an average /b/tard who downloads software just because it's there to steal. I didn't make the point clear at all. If I were to pirate a piece of software, I wouldn't consider myself a "pirate" - mostly because I'd pay f

No, I mean that that particular method wouldn't work for me at all. Were I to pirate something, I wouldn't need the reminder. Sorry that that's unclear. EDIT: And yes, it's definitely an interesting experiment. I'd like to see some sort of

Honestly, I don't think this approach would work at all. Taking for example myself (which is a bit of a debating faux pas, but whatever): If I see some software that I think would be useful, but don't have €14.99 to spend on it, I'll downlo

Mike, doing this does not mean that Google is evil or anything of the sort. That's linkbait and you know it. They're protecting themselves from what might be automated queries. There's likely nothing you or they can do about it, as lowering

Some observations: * I checked one of the sites they blocked at random, and they're using Google Analytics to track views. GA can be used to track a hell of a lot of things, as I'm sure every reader of this site knows, including location of

It took me two hours to solve it (though that's a reflection on me, not the problem. ;) ), which is where that number came from.

This is brilliant. If a picture speaks more than a thousand words, an awesome tech demo shouts louder than a CV, for sure.

Think about teaching, perhaps. Certainly for me, if I know something well enough to teach it, I've gotten bored with what I can do with it. However, if I actually then _teach_ someone, there's a constant barrage of questions, from a complet

Nope. I actually bought the soundtrack. Only $5 for a lossless download. €3.59, you can't exactly go wrong. http://www.nullco.com/TSN/

With the MacBook Air refresh, Apple made "No optical drive" a feature . The OS X Install USB key is an omen of things to come, too. I think you're right, and it's really just a matter of time until they bring it across almost all of their

Well, a small correction. Certain ones, most notably iStat Menus, can be moved with command-click. In the old days, a hack was used to make this work by tricking the system into thinking it was a built-in, but unused, menubar item, often th

Thank you for the links, they're brilliant. Especially the first one, really gives you an insight into the man who's getting me (and thousands more around the world) through college. :)

This seems to have worked almost perfectly in the current Webkit nightly for me, and I think it's really a stellar example of what can be done with browsers. Now we just need one of the comic book giants like Marvel or DC (or even a smaller

No, thank you. It's refreshing to see that people won't just immediately attack me for the opinion. It's such an uncommon view here, especially in my age group, that I get a lot of flack for it.
