I got a "We've detected unusual activity on your account" lockout on my Gmail account this morning. Since I can't find anything suspicious on the account I assume it's just bots hammering away, trying the Gawker password and other guesses.

That's how I finally got it right. Now I just remember that the second arg ("dest") is optional.

Draw new lines over the old lines, then erase. The solvent in the marker works better than any cleaner.

Am I missing something? "... 300-500 ad impressions per day ..." but that's the new app sales per day not the total number of users. If only there was some way to find the area under the sales curve then we could find the total number of us

There are reasonable examples even on the web. There was a time when 'the internet' meant AOL to most people. Creating a web site meant GeoCities. For a couple of years, everyone I know had their home page set to Yahoo. MySpace was the hot

Wouldn't you have to pay the tax even when it wasn't on sale?

Wasn't the term "face book" in rather common use at many colleges and universities? Isn't that where they got the name? What if they'd called themselves yearbook.com?

There are worse threats. It took me less than 15 minutes to find a decent photo of you, what I think is your work address (zip 60603), possibly your home address (number is 519) and phone number (726 in the middle). I didn't come up with yo

Doesn't seem to be available for iPod Touch even though many of the features would work fine on it.

"Eight years after 9/11, why are we still so reactive, so un-Israelified?" Because L-3 / Lockheed Martin / Haliburton / etc. don't sell training in behavior tracking / FACS? Isn't it all just a money-grab by the usual suspects?

I got a 3G Kindle 3 several weeks ago. I find that I mostly use it to read fiction. I'll probably eventually find it good for nice linear nonfiction like autobiographies. That's good because I've really gotten away from reading fiction, ins

The Sony remote looks like a label maker. I'm surprised they didn't style it a bit better.

I'm pretty sure those are automated test posts by link spammers. Approve one comment like that and I'll bet you'll be flooded with comments that actually point somewhere.

I wonder how someone like National Geographic does it, since they seem to have no problem publishing electronic versions. Maybe they've just automatically secured all rights? Or only used staff writers/photographers so they only publish thi

I'm pretty sure that cases like this is why that CD-ROM compendium was pulled from the market. Ironically, it's probably a collector's item now. It's actually quite frustrating, because there are a number of magazines that want to publish b

Facebook? I actually see some real, relevant, and useful ads there. And there are a ton of teachers there, avoiding working on their lesson plans.

Currently going through another effort to fully adopt Scrum at work, I wonder if there isn't a workable way to apply that to personal productivity. GTD "projects" are really "product backlog" items that need regular review and reprioritizat

I've tried GTD but no one tool works for me and I end up falling off of the wagon. Email is usually my downfall. I'd prefer everything on paper, whether Moleskine notebooks, index cards, or just folded printer paper. But taking an incoming

I didn't get all emotional about a guy gaming Gowalla. I wasn't about to go drop an f-bomb on him and his family, but I did come close to joking with him about it. I was just commenting that it was weird to actually see a guy that does hund

I'd never been very good at it. I could play, but would almost always lose to anyone that had spent any real time studying chess. Then a couple years ago I got into it and spent maybe 100 hours on it. Now I know I can demolish anyone that d

The weirdest thing I had happen so far was checking in (on Gowalla) at a restaurant while on vacation and seeing a checkin from the same guy that had also recently checked into our hotel. For a minute I thought it was a weird coincidence, b

I worked for a company that fired two developers for disclosing salaries. (An executive put a spreadsheet of them on a public drive.) It wasn't just the difference in salaries that got people upset. It was the lies management had told when

It certainly seems like an easy to understand value prop. I've done ok on negotiating cars, but only after a lot of research and through a lot of frustration. I've told a friend of mine (an aggressive attorney) that I'd gladly pay her to go

There's a port of Frotz for iPhone / iOS and an app named Twisty on Android that are z-Machine interpreters (so they can play these games offline.)
