Honestly, I think spending this much money is a little strange. I have a $20 adjustable piano keyboard stand that does fine. It takes all of 30 seconds to adjust the height by loosening a knob and moving the leg props to a different notch.

I'd be happy if they stopped trying to be fancy and just covered usability basics like supporting the browser back button. I can't even count the number of times I've hit back on an event screen expecting to get to my calenda

I don't have any use for tip4commit, personally, and couldn't care less if it succeeds either way. I did read the GitHub site, though, and your case 1) is incorrect. They return the money if it isn't claimed.

HipChat was already acquired. As was Yammer. So they aren't VC relevant any more. Products often stagnate once acquired anyway.

Honestly, I've bought some ASUS gear before, like the EEE PC netbooks as loaners at events and classes. They often have ghost in the machine problems like this. One has, for years, frozen for 1 second ever 15 seconds, no matter what so

The only time Chrome's over-zealous security has even shown up for me is when it doesn't let me login to WiFi that requires a login page. Which happens a lot. Oh, and maybe once the site in question had an expired certificate and

Why would that matter if it is printing the entire board? It is not like it is printing on the board surface, it is printing the entire thing, so it can make a column of electrically conductive material straight through the entire depth as

Taking another year for school is not a big deal. Heck, it is a lot easier to get intern and coop jobs while you are in school, and participate in programs like Google Summer of Code, than it is to get a full time full pay job after. That s

I think you still need flash fallback for web audio so should use a mature library like Sound Manager. I looked through the JavaScript for this and saw nothing like that. Might be good for a demo or hackathon or something that doesn't

You could just wear a wrist brace from the local drug store to make it clear that hand isn't used for hand shakes. I wear one 24/7 anyway to avoid tightness in my wrists from too much coding.

Many people I know in SF left Uber because of the surge pricing for Lyft, which now added surge pricing...so from the user perspective most take the simpler decision route of just dumping the expensive one.
