Huh. Most of those guidelines make sense (but they are so redundant they probably would not pass Panda's tests for readable-content vs keyword-stuffing), but this one stuck me as completely inappropriate, biased, and entering the realm of c

Are you sure? He government can try to tax everything and use my PlayStation and house in Ohio to settle a debt to a Chinese citizen, but if it ends up destroying the US economy, there won't be any new wealth creation to tax, and that is wh

Your analysis makes sense without the tortured analogy to PC fanboyism. Macs are not in asset bubble, they are a product people enjoy, and pay a premium or aesthetics or peace of mind or lack of competition from an equivalent product, not b

Funny you mention this, because I read a popular book today "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child", that claims that being conpletely responsive to a crying/fussy baby tends to be less about creating a nurturing parental relationship, and mo

My coworker went to GoogleI/O and got a Galaxy Tab 10.1. With an Android app that meets that description. I cannot take another loom or get it's name over the weekend, though. It also had a feature that automatically saved the grams of a vi

While technically possible to accept in some cases, nowhere-durable is a rather extreme tradeoff option. It would be interesting to reconsider memcached as durable storage in the modern SSD era, however.

C. For Java, at least, Eclipse will automatically display Javadoc for a library you download (in both mouseover hover and a sidebar window) , and will navigate to source if the library has an attached source jar (which maven will usually fi

Namespaces are nice when the language lets you name a space at the top of a file or a block and then not repeat the name prefix on every identifier inside. They are not just used to add dots to identifier names, although that would often be

The article does recommend buying freelance writing for $10 per page, which is more than $3/hr for the low-complexity writing presumably required. For example, he kind of writing on DMV.org, that just puts some chatty flow between steps in

Google Search has an insecurity complex where it will show you a ton of low quality content instead of telling you it did not find anything good. The problem isn't that a bunch of folks have made lame sites; the problem is that no one has m
