I was happy to see that tabbing worked intuitively and the clues auto-updated based on the cursor. Very slick!

I only read Twitter in real time. It's like a pseudo-IRC chatroom for me. When I'm watching sports, I can fire it up and see real-time reactions (from the various sports people and writers that I follow) and have everyone go &quot

Easier than pen and paper? Or the camera on their phone?

A lot of people do, but not a lot of professional writers do.

If your TTL is very low, you end up creating/handling a lot more DNS traffic, because your records are flushed from the cache more often and have to be re-retrieved. Also, many public DNS servers (e.g. your ISP's, or Google's

I have always been a big fan of rap vocabulary, and I've already lost an hour poring over different results. What would be amazing would be a cross-reference to the Google Trends results for the same words. You could try to see the dif

I choose to let sites do what they want with ads, since it is their site and their business plan/model. I also choose not to visit sites that have ads that I don't like.

Well, games have been around for a far shorter time period than movies, so you're not comparing games from 1920 to games from today (and thus the overall effect of inflation is lower). Also, since the former #1 game (BLOPS 2) came out

Canadians and US Short Code owners get all of the cool toys (for now, at least). I have been waiting for Twilio MMS for at least a year, but it looks like I have to wait a bit longer (or get into the beta).

I would also suggest that any iOS users move away from Google Authenticator and towards Authy or another solution. Google Auth in iOS7 has been deleting labels, and even worse, deleting tokens, for many users. The app hasn't been updat

If I like an article I see on HN, I'll go back and check a few of the previous entries on the blog. If there are a couple of similarly interesting articles in the last 10 entries or so, I'll add it to my RSS reader. If not, I&#x27

Do note that you will need new keycaps to use Dvorak or Colemak. Each row of keys in a WASD keyboard has a slightly different height/slope, so you can't move the keys around between rows (without having all of your keys being diff

WASD Keyboards (well, Weyman) has given me some of the best customer support over the past few years. They even recently fixed my busted Caps Lock key (my own fault) outside of warranty for just $10. I broke my space bar in-warranty, and it

Except that you can sell the items you make for cash, and a lot of people make thousands of dollars making hats for Valve games.

Yes, but it doesn't let you combine multiple disparate (not all Gmail) inboxes into a single pane of glass like Mail.app does.

I know that Montecito was one of the highest priced zip codes in the USA, as of a few years ago. SB is stuck between the ocean and the mountains, with no room to grow.

Definitely made the difference between "not loading, closing the tab" to "wow, that was awesome, I will gladly wait and see where this goes".

I hadn't heard of MailTester before; I have used the telnet/25 and RCPT TO: technique manually several times.

I believe if you're a verified business account and the total is under $20 or so, no signature is needed. If it's over a certain amount, then you have to get a signature, which means you're going to be swiveling or handing someone an iPad r

Depends on if you're re-spinning between turns. Otherwise the first guy might get a 1/600 chance, but everyone afterward has better (or worse?) than 1/6 odds.

Treat every gun like it's loaded, check both ways before crossing the street, and assume that all of your unencrypted data is already compromised. Sounds like good advice to me.

I see a lot of complaints about companies not doing business in every country. When I look at the tangled mess that is the worldwide copyright system, I feel privileged, not entitled, to services like Spotify and Netflix. They've put a lot

I hate it when an adult writes content as if they were their child. It's pretty obvious that this is being written and organized entirely by the mom, and I'm guessing the kid has minimal involvement besides wanting to go to camp and wanting
