All I see are people looking at places they already know about and seeing that people have used Strava there. If these people already know the locations, so does anyone else who matters.

So many people miss this. This project (and many others like it) wouldn't be faster without Electron. They flat out wouldn't exist. If people don't want to use Electron apps then don't, but don't fill every single d

It's on my 6p which had an updated this morning that I assume was N final (I've been running the betas). It's in the dropdown settings pane. You might need to hit "EDIT" and add it as a tile?

The problems discussed aren't all about durability, they are about using the wrong pull up resisters so your phone thinks it is plugged in to a charger than can supply 3A, but the charger can't. The cable will survive just fine, b

XAML was the main way to do the UI for Windows 8 and Windows Phone apps. Now admittedly nobody actually made any apps for those two platforms, but MS never stopped pushing XAML, it was just Silverlight and WPF they killed off (or ignored in

Screen size isn't phone size, particularly when it comes to iPhones, since they have very large bezels. Here http://j.mp/1uIZZ6f is a size comparison of the 5S, 6 and Z3C.

I never quite understood why the default was what it was. I can count the times I've wanted to push all branches at once on no hands. But maybe that's just my work flow.

All of the explanations I've seen are related to encouraging OpenBSD developers and surfacing bugs in OpenBSD, how does that help the typical x86 OpenSSH user? "We want $20k to help maintain this other thing we do that you have no

Yeah, there's plenty of people here saying "hey, you use OpenSSH on x86, you should donate". But the the reason they need the donations is to pay the power bills for running things like Vax servers for OpenBSD development on

Or perhaps people just genuinely want larger phones. Samsung's Note series sold very well. I know I personally would love the bigger screen of the Nexus 5 over my current Galaxy Nexus. I can't think of anything worse than having a

I seem to see more women than men with really huge phones like the Galaxy Note series. Perhaps because they are more likely to have a bag to carry it around with, rather than needing to keep it in a pocket. Presumably they just use them two

In not at all surprising news yet another anti-malware vendor is trying to scare up business. And yet when we look at their data what has increased? Not detected installs of malware, but malware samples in their database. And when we look a

Of course FRAND doesn't mean you can use patents without a license, it means that they have to be offered for licensing under FRAND terms. Presumably you are supposed to go to court if you believe you aren't being offered FRAND terms, Apple

Not every device is for every use case. I would rather a 10 inch device for that, but would prefer 7 for reading a novel. Everything is tradeoffs.

You hear this a lot (Google is an advertising company, they make 95% of their money from ads). But by that metric many companies are ad companies. Pretty much every web site on the web is just an ad company, because that is how they actuall
