All I want is for a good programmable spreadsheet on the Mac. Is that too much to ask? (This is windows only)

Demand for legal services? I don't know about that, but demand for lawyers has definitely been suppressed. When the recent downturn took effect, firms quit hiring for 2-3 years. This left multiple classes of law students unable to find

I had to deal with this before. Basically we combined several obscuring techniques: Use SSL for the requests which makes it harder to sniff the API. Add some sort of tamper token like you suggest. Use a specific User Agent string and check

I think this depends on the kind of work you produce. I know tons of CEOs who are more productive because of their tablets. The reason is that the form factor makes it easy to carry it everywhere. So they always have documents in Evernote,

This doesn't surprise me at all. I am reading all of these critiques and wondering if the people who don't have a use for tablets are all programmers who sit at a desk all day. My iPad is indispensable. I use Evernote to store a ton of impo
