Troll. But just in case you're not permanently damaged yet: Imagine you're invited to a party where you are the oldest, fattest, least appealing person there, and you're not particularly made to feel welcome. Now imagine you're expected to

You're invited to a conference that's relevant to your position and your industry. When you arrive, a number of hired twentysomething men are milling about wearing tight tee-shirts, padded crotches, and skintight jeans. They're dancing, dri

So by "without processors or batteries" we mean "with a processor and a battery". Check.

I've been using DuckDuckGo exclusively for months now, and it is a dog's breakfast compared to Google. Some types of searches are almost as good, but nothing about it is better than Google's experience yet.

The Apple ID/iTunes/iCloud edifice has always been messy, yes, but I believe appleid.apple.com has always been the account management page. They've never had login UI on most pages.

Extraordinarily bad news. The damage that can be done with an Apple ID is limitless, including CC leaks, physical address, instant remote wipes of phones and Macs, you name it. This had better be Apple's priority zero today. Edit: When a cr

Oh the irony of everyone involved being ~shafted~.

No, stop, this non-thought does not advance science. It's nonrigorous garbage that's designed to go down smooth without much effort. At best it's fanciful noise, at worst it's a cultural nerve toxin.

If you start thinking of Microsoft as a consumer software firm that smartly migrated into more lucrative and long-term enterprise/service segments, they're doing just fine. People will properly forget about them once their products are inev

Now sis. This is a Tony award nominated stage director serving up ninety minutes of missed cues, DOA humor, tortured narratives, miserable dialogue, and energy-sapping bloat. But whether it was supposed to be delightfully exaggerated or ge

This is ghastly. Bachelorette party: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=I... They literally have seven grown women on stage chirping over a calorie counter, eyefucking an actual topless man, making cheesecake jokes

I get the core idea: alerts services are essentially ego-stroking services unless your corporation is big enough to reach PR critical mass. But finding out who's talking about you is a graymarket use for this service. For a company to prope

Everything about this passes the smell test but that pitch video. Dom Perignon, gorgeous babe, party, "bro"... yuck. That's half the audience tuning out in 30 seconds, and some more bailing due to the low-fi cartoon look, contrived 'problem

Just to be sure, this is a marketing technique, not a method of funding a movie. The actual movie will cost around 20x more just to cover production, talent, editing, and distribution costs. Consider Kickstarter marketing that pays for itse

This is egregiously well done, all of it. I have zero interest in my car or how it works, and yet I'll have one. Crystal clear website, crystal clear video, an unaggressive logo, they precisely explain what the product does, and you know ex

Which is why it's a good thing that virtually every car has a place to plug in your smartphone.

Absolutely spot-on. The day Apple scuttles the Pro is the day they have fundamentally checked out of the computer industry. (That mobile and portable is preposterously more profitable is beyond the point. PCI+x86 is an empire.)

And this weekend Apple Maps dropped me off in a frozen cornfield fifteen miles from my destination. Four more anecdotes and I can bang out a paid article too.

While this is an op-ed being run by a web tabloid, there's no superstition or anti-science on display that I can sense. So let's find some quieter common ground: A class of prescription psychoactive drugs are increasingly being used by tens
