> Motorola is going to teach Lenovo about having a small, yet highly focused product portfolio. Not so sure about that. Prior to Google's acquisition, Motorola had a huge product portfolio. I would bet that they only slimmed it down

I'm not following. This "spammer" sends you a message via G+, then what? If you don't respond to them, they don't get your email address.

This would be terrible from a performance perspective on mobile. Not because the phone executes JS slowly (it might, but that's not issue). The problem is the network latency around downloading the initial html (whatever little html yo

What I don't see is these three statements: 1. Force Lavabit to provide their private SSL keys and route all their traffic through a government machine that performed a man-in-the-middle style data collection; 2. Change their softwar

This article seems to speculate on things that are not necessarily true. It's possible that the government simply told him that he had to be able to supply information arbitrarily on demand without an explicit warrant. This does not me

This sentence is not anywhere near close enough to the top: "This CA isn't going to be trusted by your website visitors, but your infrastructure can trust it as long as you keep it safe. " In other words, this doesn't me

You're probably right, though says in the article "I wanted to do the same thing, but without all that work." In other words, he has an animated gif and wanted to try some quick css trickery to get the effect.

I'd agree with the OP here. Stylus may be "very open and flexible" but I don't know what stylus is either. I came to your page because I wanted to find out about roots, not about stylus. Open with a statement saying "Roots is a css framewor

You can get free SSL certs through http://www.startssl.com/ . Granted, their website is _horrendous_ to navigate. Also, the certs are encryption only - no real identity verification - so they won't light up your address bar blue or green.

"...and you can't even pick what goes into the tabs they have created." Sure you can. Just drag an email between them. It gives you the option to permanently move emails from that sender to a specific tab. Presumably, it also adapts to your

A fair point, but as they learn to edit, they can't leave what they consider to be unsuccessful products in place either. Unlike publishing, product development isn't static.

"Their design ability might be improving, but again and again they show a lack of editing — they lack the ability to be selective about their product portfolio." This statement seems strange to me, being as the the prior paragraphs were abo

You're suggesting that Google is going to charge for gmail and/or G+? That seems highly unlikely to me. Also for "Apps for Your Domain" they already do charge if you want more than one account.

Ah, my mistake, you are correct. That being said, the example has another flaw: it is based on completing an infinite number of finite time tasks in finite time. That is to say, adding and removing an infinite number of balls will take an i

"Case 1 says it might be infinitely many, case two says it might be none." What? Case 2 says that all the balls will be put back in. In both cases, there will be infinitely many balls back in the barrel after midnight.

I can second this. We do a stand up around 11:45, before we head to lunch. We each answer what we're working on that day, bookended by what we did yesterday and/or what we're working on over the next few days. Any bigger questions which ari

As I tried to take this survey, my answers would randomly change or blank out. Also, this test assumes that hacking is what people do when they break into systems.
