Why go with just wireless? It could just as easily be hooked up to 3G and Edge to access eBay.

In Sweden I wouldn't say that kids enjoy learning it, but everyone sees it as absolutely necessary. It's also used every day because all music, all TV-shows (except some really bad Swedish shows) and all movies are in English. Since we star

Very interesting article. Can't help but to think about the differences in countries educational systems. I'm Swedish, here we start studying English in second (numbers and such) and third grade (start with words and grammar). And then stud

>Having that single-minded focus and dedication needed to put in the 10k hours makes you an outlier. Then doesn't that in a sense make it the talent you're talking about? I think we're just splitting hairs here, I'm pretty sure I mean t

Your second paragraph here is exactly how I interpreted the book. They are not Outliers and special in any way, they are merely successful because they had the stamina to put in the 10,000 hours he talks about. The entire point of the 10k h

I might be a bit tired right now so I couldn't grasp what she meant. But was there ever a counter-argument in this post? "I don’t know, because it’s a faulty premise. Just because an entrepreneur minimizes his or her downside, he doesn’t re

I've always been deeply interested in the inner workings of record labels. As I understand it, it seems that a label is somewhat like a VC for artists. But no VC takes 80-90% of the company they invested in. Why do they need to take such a

"Where did I say I didn't mind writing my own platform?" My point was exactly this. Rather than writing your own platform, which will most likely be less secure (but not vulnerable to blanket attacks), you could just write the plugins you w

You want every feature of Wordpress, but you don't want Wordpress. Not once in the last 3 years have I had a plugin that didn't work with a newer version. I haven't had to "reinstall" it even once either. Maybe you just need to choose your

The example was a contrived one to illustrate my point. While I understand that the license statement is there because he doesn't want "giant corporates" to use it without permission, those kinds of licenses are in general hurtful. We only

Who says it wont? If the hellfire missiles is used to kill terrorists plotting to nuke the world I would say they were used for good! The license statement is just ridiculous and doesn't mean anything at all, yet it gives legal departments

That's pretty cool! But only useful for the few of my friends that would know how to run a perl script (and have LaTeX installed) unfortunately LaTeX is a rarity at Swedish schools and I need to make it super simple and install-free to make

I have my last final today. This comes as a perfect school-is-over-and-i-can-start-hacking-again gift! I'm hoping to be able to integrate LaTeX export into this so I can collaborate on LaTeX reports without having to download and build manu

I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but if you run jekyll --server --auto while in development any small change you make gets automatically regenerated and it only regenerates affected files.

Not to mention matrix calculations, which I actually do on a daily basis (for solving PDEs).

Though I remember reading somewhere they rewrote the entire thing with GWT. Can someone find source or tell me if I'm wrong?

I would strongly disagree, just because it's slim doesn't mean it doesn't look designed. I've run across a lot of apps trying to be slim and basically just Google that have failed miserably because they were "designed by programmers". Googl

I envision a future where fields are filled with these black holes and an area of a couple of square kilometers is completely and utterly blacked out. Really adds drama to the post-apocalyptic scene.

I've been playing around with this framework a bit for my own blog but never had the time to finish it. It's actually very powerful and a nice piece of code. It's so generalized to deploy to several servers and the MU framework that it's a

I really wonder how game-changing this will be. Of course most sites on the web aren't meant to be application but rather information presentation. But it does seem like a huge step toward liberating developers from writing front-end code.

I can't agree with you more. I recently finished a pretty big project in Drupal that featured some custom functionality that we had to write ourselves. Not only was it a tremendous hassle to get everything to work nicely with all the other
