I hear this time and time again. "Flash is dead" and it is, except when it isn't. Beatport Sounds use it for playing samples, which means that I cannot use that site on my phone. Since WP8 is so locked down, the only browser option is IE 10

I got a Lumia 822 (Verizon-only offering) and I have mixed feelings about it. I love the Live Tiles but things like IE10 Mobile really frustrate me. There is no Flash support so I can't go to certain sites (like Beatport Sounds). There are

"It also costs less than one-tenth of the price of the MBP, so, given that, the hardware performs much better than one-tenth the quality components." Except that it may not. You have the initial cost and then the $25 a month for basically t

As somebody who is learning C++ and decided to go with clang, the error reporting is absolutely phenomenal. It tells me not only what line errors are on but also makes suggestions as to how to fix it. I don't ever recall GCC having very hel

Wow...not sure how I completely missed that. But I did just hear the sound of a "whoosh" as the original thread went right over my head :(

I would play Diablo 3 on my laptop and desktop and would get around 10 to 20 FPS if I was lucky. So all this talk of 30 FPS is making me jealous!

I'm not sure. I do know that games like World of Warcraft would make you agree to the terms each time you had a patch or they changed. It seems like Instagram is doing what you are describing. I would definitely be interested in hearing a l

You can't just unilaterally change a contract and expect it to be valid. My understanding of things like this is so that if things do change, the company can offer up a new TOS/contract which would supersede the previous.

Good to know. The only Indiana Jones movie I have seen is the Crystal Skull one, so I'm not up on my Jones. "Something I hadn't previously considered is that given Disney does its own distribution, they probably have no need to use 20th Cen

"Mildly disappointing ending to what I hoped to be some epic story/gimick/whatever." I started to wonder if it was some sort of publicity stunt by Disney to get interest into a new Indiana Jones movie after buying Lucasfilm.

"They want most people paying in to need little or nothing from them." Exactly. I'm not conveying my thoughts very well. The way it is setup would allow people to treat the autism diagnosis exam as preventative care. If they know they don't

They negotiate a rate with providers in the network and pay out based on that. My point (and I don't think it was very clear) is that the system currently is set up (for at least that one company) so that if you don't have autism they will

Thank you. I am just baffled that an insurance company would pay for an unnecessary test instead of one that was deemed necessary. It seems completely contradictory to how they want to make money.

I was reading this and it made me sad. Not because of the obvious content but because of the diagnosis being thrown around and how when reading them my immediate thought was "I hope it isn't a personality disorder". I say this knowing full

I apologize. After re-reading that I definitely missed something when I made the post. I thought that you were saying that an Air would be better for programming.

"If it must be an Apple then the Air is more than suitable for a bit of coding." Why? I'm looking into getting an Apple laptop and don't know which to get. I'm leaning towards the MBP just because I'm getting into music production and the e

Objective C was confusing to me when I first looked at it. Then I looked at Smalltalk and then it made more sense. The reason it is hard to learn for me is that the tool chain sucks if you aren't on a Mac. I have had nothing but issues with
