What was his justification to demand you to work more? He must have something, right?

Some options I can think of: 1. Stop working that much. Maybe he will notice. If he does, it would be a good way of starting the discussion. 2. Make him feel guilty. (Though this would be a bit mean) 3. Be open to him about how you feel and

At least that is how the "Zugangserschwerungsgesetz" in Germany works and I think SOPA will be similar in this respect, but I might be wrong.. No, that's how the Zugangserschwerungsgesetz (access hindrance law) was supposed to wor

That's because whoever coded this page decided that it's a good idea to emulate "background-position: fixed" by updating the "background-position" of the #main element on every scroll event. Which seems quite stupid if you ask me.

Why does this have "post mortem" in the title? It is so misleading. Whenever I read "post mortem" in a title I immediately think somebody or something has died (possibly metaphorically). In this case I expected the article to be about an ab

In most browsers and with Intel based hardware you can only achieve 64 callbacks per second (or one callback every 15.6ms) even when using setTimeout(f, 0). [1] Maybe the task of reflowing the document just takes significantly less than 15m

This makes me wonder if this type of cloud icons is going to replace the floppy disk as a metaphor for saving. It certainly is about time.

Using TDD everywhere is stupid. I think, tests are most useful between layers of abstraction, especially if you are the provider of abstraction. If you are merely a user of abstraction, it is stupid to unit test that code. If you have an in

Anyone else who doesn't understand his example? If my company is valued at $1M and someone invests $1M in it, why do I still own 50% of the company after the investment, as the author said? Doesn't this mean the company is actually valued a

GNOME core modules now only depend on introspection-based Python bindings (pygobject-3) and hence pygtk, gnome-python and gnome-python-desktop are not required any more. Interesting. I have been out of the loop for a while. Does

No, it is dynamic. In the video these sliders are actually moving. (And not static, as your image would suggest) The article explains it like this: All of the browser subsystems are present on your Kindle Fire as well as on the AWS cl

Just google for cache:http://www.example.com/ and it will take you directly to the cached site. This is particularly nice in combination with Chrome's omnibar where you just have to prepend "cache:" before the current URL, hit return

That's an interesting idea, but you still have the problem that essentially everything in the browser can be MITMed. Even SSL isn't really secure. Just look at the recent CA incidents or the BEAST exploit.

They claim that they anonymize your data. For example Google Analytics data should be anonymized (i.e. they don't link the traffic to your Google account name or some cookie ID, but they do store your IP). If this is true, it means that t

Aren't you asked to turn electronic devices off when you enter a hospital? I don't understand why there's an exception for the iPad. And at least from what you can see in the video their iPads are not in airplane mode, but are actually conn

I organize my knowledge, but I have never heard of a topic map. So the answer to your question is, that not enough developers know about them, or that topic maps are not useful enough to developers. Can you give an example of how they can b

First, you have to ask yourself what you like doing (or learning about) the most, regardless of how much money you can make with it. Then you should work on that. If it's really what you want to do, you will make it work! Even if it takes l
