Sure, it's cheaper and the technology is top notch. But dear god do the tools have a learning curve. As a dabbling artist who just wants to make something reasonably good-looking, the toolkit looks very intimidating. With Shiva and Unity, t

Then you're better off using any of the other torrent (meta)searchers. This kind of view is excellent for those without access to any nifty streaming services.

I do believe humility is a seriously underrated trait. You do the thing that needs to be done, no fanfare necessary.

I doubt the OCR would be 'live'. More likely, it would be used when transferring files back to your computer. As the device doesn't have wifi or any files to rename, there is nothing that would take character input on the device..

I think I agree with this. It would make perfect sense for the developer to specify the return period. I mean, even a choice between 15min/ 60min/ 24h would probably be enough.

I'm not entirely sure your negative opinion of getting rejected is justified. I feel the direction of the feedback cycle is entirely dependent on the given person's general mindset. As a positive example, my weak point is talking to girls.

Personally, I find the UI very, very appealing. But will not purchase a WP7 phone until a proper browser becomes available, even Opera Mini will suffice. On a related note, how come all the mobile JS frameworks neglect Opera?

If you do the same thing everyone else is doing, you will fail. If you work really hard, you will perhaps fail to a lesser degree than everybody else. But the only way to win is to play your own game.

It's a productivity method named after Jerry Seinfeld. I first heard about it from this lifehacker post: http://lifehacker.com/281626/jerry-seinfelds-productivity-se... Basically you decide to do or practice something every day. If you fo

The system itself makes perfect sense and I actually tried it out, unlike chatroulette. But the design.. it needs some work. For one thing, the flash webcam popup before I've even read the heading, as has been pointed out, appears much too

On the contrary, I feel it's as close to Why's Poignant Guide any Javascript tutorial has got so far. It reads well and the interactive console is really helpful. I'm 2x12 old, admittedly, but for me this was a really good way to learn JS b

At 24 years of age, I have had enough time to attempt shaving with different razors again and again. I have hated every minute of it. Wether I have too sensitive skin or I have not given myself enough time desensitize myself, but none of th

I have reason to believe the latter connotation may have been a misunderstanding. As an Estonian, I am quite convinced that "Head ööd" means "Good night" and is in no way connected to wether you are actually going to bed. Unless you add a w

I vote for REBOL. Syntax is really basic, yet really powerful. Can do graphics, simple animation, connect to the web, can accept web connections and is really small. Basic applications at http://musiclessonz.com/rebol.html rebol tutorial

What's with the confusing system? Maybe it's from growing up with it, but here in Europe the system makes a lot more sense: all foods specify the calories/ other food info per 100 grams. This makes it easy to compare different foods. Since
