You can generally use them to model a situation or improve it. For instance, if you're doing a dictionary, you'll be looking into a trie or Bloom filter, and it's generally like that I'm using it. Skiena's Algor

Yeah, we have to rely on cables, when the wi-fi isn't fast enough to transmit the video - or whatever is causing the laggy video.

I keep forgetting that exists. Everyone's talking about hats, and I have no idea what's going on.

Copy says >15Mb at the moment. Funky way to denote minimum - reminds me of the "Recommended" specs on a videogame. That rules out me, but it's a nice reminder of how much of an obstacle to innovation lack of broadband can

There's probably a bit of the Photoshop Effect going on, where companies are mostly interested in having their tool become the dominant one - and the dominant skill - in the industry over piracy litigation. We're in a perfect st

Nah, I think it had something like four levels for each programming language to advance through - and as I vaguely recall, a great, simple webdesign. I can't remember how much it focused on a hyperglot approach, but it featured a whole

I remember another polyglot website back in the day, which was more prosaic than this overview. It was absolutely fantastic, but I can't for the life of me remember the URL. If it hasn't been updated, it probably won't have t

You're officially a billion-dollar corporation, when you start being careless with people's private data. :)

I use Evernote's Readly. Quite lovely, but the customization isn't the best compared to Readability. I prefer having an extension/built-in tool to a bookmarklet, though.

The upside of this is that Pebble get to rake in people's money for pre-orders - not a finished product - which means they manage to pre-empt Apple Watch stealing the show. The drive is going to run until ultimo March, with Apple Wat

Has anyone gotten the Bluetooth stuff to work on OS X? I tried hard, but never managed to. To be fair, Bluetooth pairing between iOS and OS X hasn't been the most pleasant experience in general. -- Authy is a fine app, but the main sel

Get the app Tailor; it'll do it for you. :) https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tailor-automatic-screenshot/... Maybe the Magic people should promote a tool, since word-of-mouth promotion can be hard without

Yeah, it's what prompted the creation of Ghost. I sometimes see people doing more in WordPress than I have yet to get Django to do.

I imagine they wanted to make it a paywalled article but thought no one in their right mind would want to read the story outside of the magazine anyway and made it free. :) Speaking of, does their iOS app still crash five minutes into readi

It looks like a dialled-down version of Prose without image upload and more elaborate metadata/YAML options. Prose is beginning to pick up after it changed maintainers, but there are still some hangups such as image upload that need to

It's been a long time since I used Ghostery, but the most common problem were JS trigger events from clicking a button that didn't fire. It made it a bit of a pain to debug.

Ghostery breaks so much stuff, I don't know how people can bother. I've found that Privacy Badger does a great job of blocking third-party tools in a way that rarely breaks anything - in which case it's easy to turn off. That

One reason would be that it compromises the identity of the representative and makes it about him/her - when they were just following the script.

Oh, I didn't even notice that. Looks like the Outlook app doesn't have the bottom buttons with links to e-mail and calendar, which would be a real bummer.

It is. Microsoft acquired it, so they probably pulled a Sparrow. :)

Are group DMs supported through the API for third-party clients? The direct capture and upload has been sorely needed, should make on-the-ground reporting much easier.

Mock weddings and recipes are popular. It's a little like The Sims with catalogued real-world items (and people). :)

Counterpoint, it’s really hard to explain social media for users who don’t have an account - which could be a reason to do a "mock" profile with some of the most popular accounts in the feed. Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr didn't

The use cases for Pinterest have always been very vague, and the default categories keep changing. Pinterest hasn’t done a good job of explaining the uses of the service, especially the great wishlist service whose rich-data pins can send y

Would love an example of an example project. That can be cloned and played around with. Some people learn by reading docs, but I like the hands-on experience.
