About a year ago they let me board the wrong plane. I was flying LAN, and the first leg of the flight, in the US, was operated by American Airlines. When I got to Miami for my connection to Peru, I showed my ticked to an AA employee at the

Certainly. Processor, OS, RAM, etc will matter a lot. FWIW I ran in a Core 2 Duo P9500 with W7 64, 4gb of ram.

Thought I'd give this a try since I never gave Opera much of a chance, and I'm usually very tolerant of alpha/betas as long as they mostly work. Lasted about half an hour - Google Reader doesn't seem to work right, and GMail also stopped re

Is it? I just downloaded this alpha and ran SunSpider. Chrome 4.0.266.0 got 506.8ms +/- 6.6%, Opera got 763.4ms +/- 4.4%.

Aparently their main page loads HN as an iframe and hides all techcrunch stories. Kinda funny. Probably someone that was sick of techcrunch on HN made it for himself and there's no major conspiracy of password stealing or SEO tricks.

It's not correct to say that Picasa is emulated using wine. Instead, it's a native Linux app that has been ported using WineLib, which reimplements a lot of the Windows API, but compiled to Linux. Instead of replacing API calls with the Lin

I remember a similar story from a few years ago where redacted names where discovered from the length of the redacted characters. Turned out it wasn't too difficult to brute force names and see which ones matched the exact size of the redac

They didn't approach Fabergé with a sales pitch out of the blue. I wouldn't expect a NDA for that. But Fabergé did ask them to come up with a pitch to relaunch their brand - I wouldn't come up with it and present it without some kind of doc

There's something that always amuses me in movies and series: something happened/is about to happen, a taskforce is created and they're running software very specific to that thing right away, with graphics, simulations, etc. Who writes all

That's writing a whole routine in asm, though. Embedding a couple lines of asm in a function can have the opposite effect - the optimizer can no longer make assumptions about some things disabling a large number of potential optimizations f

This is actually a good point. StackOverflow showed that badges work and not only in games. Probably not for your internal company tracker, but for an open source project, an issue tracker with badges, quests (you've got steps in there alre

The worst? Data Loss, or corruption, which is worse than "not working". Likewise, more likely it could just not work well, be buggy and require several updates to get it right, burning out your team's (or your company's) image with the cust
