I prefer reading novels in ebook format, but most other forms I prefer having the physical dead-tree version. One thing I think holds some ebook formats back is the insistence on replicating the physical experience. I do not need page turn

Instead of "voting with dollars" because of companies' lobby groups, why not put your energy into joining EFF or other patent-reform groups?

Isn't this similar to Windows wanting to rebuild their entire userland on top of .NET?

I think the OP is trying to blur the lines of "use the best tool for the job." C/C++ are powerful languages but they usually require a build infrastructure of some kind. (make, etc.) If you need access to a native library tha

Have to admit, played with them at the Microsoft store today and even the ARM one feels way better than last years models. Glad to see Microsoft taking this seriously and improving on them.

It's all about value-add really regardless of whether someone assumes it "comes from Apple" or not. If it's obvious what the value-add for your application is in the app store, then pay-up-front works. One problem is, 5

I was lucky enough to have my own office at Apple even during all of the pairing up when the company doubled, tripled, etc. the size of the engineering team. My most productive moments were when I could close the door and turn my music up o

100% agree. Also a perk of living in a city (such as San Francisco) is I can walk EVERYWHERE, including work and I do. Like the OP, walking to and from work and hitting the gym most days has vastly improved my quality of life and it doesn&#

Prerogative or not, it's still douchey of Google to outright block Microsoft. The original Apple version of YouTube only shows videos that do not want advertising (granted a smaller and smaller # of videos).

I think it ultimately came down to this... "It was also not pleased that Microsoft had built its own system to interface with Google’s ads so that they could be delivered to the application. It might break, and so forth." It'

Yahoo is trying to acquire so many companies, I fear they are only going to run into culture problems as they begin to assimilate them into the parent company over time. Just look at AOL as the model company that did this in the late 90s an

I have been extremely happy with the Office 365 service. It works perfectly on my Mac and iPhone.

There is a disparity between rich and poor in this country, sure, but come on. Most of the homeless in SF actually want to be on the streets. So many of them are young and it used to make me sad but I have just learned to accept it. I alw

LinkedIn is full of embarrassments. I have no idea why it continually begs me to scrape my gmail inbox for contacts? There is no way my inbox represents business associations that I want shared with anyone let alone LinkedIn.

This is quite radical in my mind and very greedy on Adobe's part. How is abandoning the pay once per version of software a benefit to anyone other than Adobe? I get weary of software that I have to bind to an active account indefinitely. Th

It's true that SJ built a high pressure work environment, but I bet if you asked any Apple engineer, they would all admit they produced some of their life's best work under that culture. It may seem draining and offensive after the fact, bu

MixPanel reports 60% iOS vs 40% Android split when actual app usage comes into the mix. Probably why backend frameworks specialize in iOS first.

It's quite common to leave school/university and enter a big corporation that provides more than financial benefits. As someone without any experience, surrounding yourself with brilliant people is humbling for one. Also I found myself lear

Harsh! To be fair, it's meant for students at the university to see a real-life success story from their program. My school had these all the time and used them as a way to keep people engaged.

I can't help but comment on my experience here. While I do sense the stigma to online dating, I don't personally care. My best interpretation of it though is that it's hard work going out and meeting people. So online dating attempts to mak

I would not call using the reporters public forum that they most likely grew out of their career built because of the association with NY Times as a fair medium for candid discussion. This reporter's duty is to the editors and to the reader

I have the pleasure of knowing Adria and she's an awesome person, so sure, in a vacuum these events are super silly. However, in this instance, she is a public figure and used her public forum to promote an issue that was personal to her.

I wouldn't bother buying (overpriced) design sketch books. Just find a couple free design templates online that work with your project and print them at Kinko's. I also get them 3-hole punched so they can be easily moved around. Stickies ar

That's been the case all along that HTML5/CSS/Javascript is much harder to develop for when targeting mobile devices. You have to build for an array of screen sizes and your assets need to work in the dizzying amount of screen DPIs. Howeve
