Why do I get the feeling this is going to go on for quite some time? On the other hand, I'm sure this is doing wonders for both Salon and Wired's visitor numbers.

I scored identically, and my experience mirrors yours; it's amazing what a decade can do, and social skills can be learned like any other, which I suspect affected the score quite significantly. Yet, while my confidence in social situations

About the article: this harks back to the Rails/Merb merger stuff in 2008. At the end of the day, I suspect this will only be a good thing; less division of interest amongst developers, and the network effect of having both groups of develo

Zuckerberg has certainly earned the attention he's received over the last few years, for better or for worse, but my first thought when I'd heard that TIME named him PotY was, "What a pedestrian choice." Safe and boring. Granted, this is th

I love a good PayPal bashing as much as the next guy (I've had my own poor experience with them), but there is a significant amount of detail missing here. It's unclear to me that you've actually contacted them - by phone, not via email or

Converting between image types isn't too big of a deal; qemu-img can convert between most of your common on-disk formats (including VMDK), and wouldn't be hard to extend to whatever they're using behind the scenes.

Who buys the access and bandwidth between service providers? Can you clearly differentiate between a service provider, a content provider, and a user? Steadfastly insisting a nuanced problem is "simple" is a quick way to get poorly-informed

Agreed completely. The articles relating to Noirin Shirley's recent post were clearly polarized: participants "picked a side" that agreed with the biases they brought to the table, and not much in the way of useful discussion actually seeme

I'm having a difficult time reading their response, as their raised middle finger aimed in the ASF's general direction appears to be obscuring the view. Disappointing.

Wireshark has had support for usbmon for a few releases now too, which gives you a considerably more useful GUI for working with USB streams. Sadly, there aren't many (any?) protocol dissectors yet, so comms with common chips like FTDI devi

Exactly this. I'm knee-deep in a personal project that involves reverse-engineering a USB device; since the only drivers for the device are for Windows, the solution was to virtualize Windows on a Linux host (presenting the USB device to th

Your second point, I think, too easily dismisses the fears men have. Lacking evidence which suggests the guilty party, we are left to our own natural sympathies. Women may have more sympathy for the narrative of a woman assaulted, men may i

There seems to be a bit of "talking past each other" going on here, because nobody is stopping to consider the real motivations involved. In particular, while I think lepid0ptera has defined her side of the discussion well, I think she may

My predictions on how this is going to go: - A few major developers will get on board with this, and publish their mainstream titles via the App Store. This will lend credibility. - Indie developers will jump on next, seeing another low-fri

The observation is interesting (and one I'd never noticed before), but I'm not sure if I agree with the conclusion. The "American" approach of discarding what you know when you're almost defeated and "winging it" seems pretty rational to me

To be fair, I've used their software in a former life, and it's quite good for the specific job of pushing out that kind of volume. I'd be tooting my horn about it if I were them, too. :)
