I find in my project people are generally quite helpful and thankful. I can't say I've received much criticism for sharing a project with the world.

I kind of like this idea.

I was extremely excited about swift when it first came out and I played around with it initially in beta. However after working on an app in Swift now I can't help but feel like some of the hoops you have to jump through for it make i

There aren't any pet sitters in suburbia? Or baby sitters? Do we really need apps for those things? You can usually find them on Yelp, after all.

It's a fun trick I've used for years, I think originally I gleaned it from http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html (or maybe not, now that I look through that page - though it is full of goodies)

I watch PBS regularly (I enjoy news hour and frontline a lot) and occasionally there will be a preroll commercial for BAE Systems and it feels like the kind of commercial you'd see for the malevolent megacorp in cyberpunk movies like O

A quick browse through the comments will find you a bunch of people who apparently live in Miami but don't think that there will be sea level rise because they don't think global warming is happening.

As much as I dislike most of these kinds of posts I find it hard to dislike most of the things michaelochurch says.

Fair enough, I considered that after I left the comment and you're probably right, access to the space is probably more valuable than what's left on the meter.

No I don't think that's quite right. He very clearly is saying that the entrepreneur alone is not responsible for the success and growth of a company because they also need customers and employees and etc etc. As for your plane c

There are a few of those intersections in the US and Canada as well, normally called "scramble" intersections here I think.

by jgh 12y ago
The driver behind them should be watching the car in front of them and be following at a safe distance. I don't see why you should run into the back of someone if they slow down for an intersection with 1-2 seconds left on the timer a

In most of California it seems that the next set of lights turns green as soon as the previous set turns red. In Ontario, Canada I believe there is a 2 or 3 second delay. I don't think that I've noticed any difference in the beh

I've had a bug in Apple's bugtracker open since February 2013. I just rechecked the behavior of the bug and while it seems like it's no longer causing a crash, it is now messing up OpenGL's state.
