I always wondered how successful those apps and languages (Logo etc.) are as learning tools. It seems like a great idea - you make colorful apps, that are easy to fiddle with and you sneak in coding under 'move dinosaur few centimeters to t

Wow. I consider myself to be pretty well-informed both in privacy and general stuff happening in my country, but it's the first time I'm ever hearing about this.

If you're asking about Trello - then I see one big difference - Trello has way simpler interface - to the point I could send my boss and colleagues invites and they immediately knew how to use it - whereas even my most geeky friends h

I couldn't figure what what this things was after skimming over landing page - after watching 'How to use Asana, in 2 minutes' it seems like it's kind of task-list/to-do/reminder thing - which makes me think of Trello. Honest question - how

Because some people don't want 15" screen, but still need more power than Air gives you. If I were buying new computer now, it would be Air, but when I was buying my MacBook Pro, Airs were still using C2D - and since I'm using my computers

My two-core 2011 MBP tends to disagree. i5 in MBA is still nowhere near power of i5 in my 13" MBP.

They're already pretty thin, my MBP is thinner then I think all laptops I see every day, save for ultraportables. And it (theoretically, since update to Lion and/or the way I work now brought it down to ~3 hours) already has the same (13" M

Sony VAIO Z [1] does exactly this - it uses Thunderbolt-over-USB-plug to connect external Radeon 6650M and Blu-Ray Burner. But I'm also waiting for cheap ($200 max) Apple-compatible PCIe enclosure, so I could play newer games on my 13" MBP.

>Human brains only run at 100Hz and I responded in realtime, so most of the work must have been precomputed. Is the 100Hz some metaphor I'm not getting? Or is it something that's actually a fact? If it's the latter, does anyone have mor

Gingerbread is 2.3.x branch, perhaps you meant Honeycomb? And while it is a little bit confusing, it kinda makes sense. Gingerbread is latest phone release, Honeycomb was tablet-only thing, and with Ice Cream Sandwich they're merging it i

It's not 1998 anymore. While I agree that design is not key to the success, I believe that when people see site with bad (like 1998-bad bad) design, they automatically distrust it. I also don't think that what they are doing is 'extreme bud

Does anyone knows what caused such big spike in size of data around August 09? Did they simply move more/all data into Hadoop or is there another explanation? Number of machine stayed relatively the same, so it seems really weird that they

For those that are wondering: today (Sept. 5th) Freddy Mercury would turn 65. It's also absolutely amazing, I recommend you to watch it in it's entirety. (I think it's also no longer Japan only, it was on .pl and .com for me also, but YMMV.

That's insane. They must be really, really desperate to get at least some money back. According to iSuppli [1], TouchPad costs $306.65 to make. It's over $200 lost on each one of those. It's going to be really tough for HP. [1] http://allt

Why does it require/involves kext? I'm genuinely curious, since I thought OS X comes with powerful ipfw. Is it some stripped down version?
