I assume non-Francophone English speakers would pronounce Julien like the English "Julian". My first name is the same as my username. In both email messages and phone calls, I am inevitably called Marty, Martin, or something else that is cl

I am not sure that this comment adds anything to the discussion. You can argue that Blecharczyk is reformed, that AirBnB is not currently spamming people, or even that the only reason he is bringing this up now is to generate interest in hi

While I have heard good things from a couple of people about HP's business support, my personal experiences with their consumer support division have been wanting. My HP laptop has a locked BIOS that prevents you from replacing the wireless

When I started learning Django, the first thing I did was work through the tutorial in the official documentation. I cannot stress enough how useful the official documentation is. Not only is it chock full of useful code examples, but the f

There is no mention of him on the EFF's history page [1], but their initial press release [2] suggests that he contributed funds at the foundation's inception. It is sort of strange that Woz claims that "he founded the EFF" and not that he

Doing as exhaustive of a search as I could, I found a couple of interesting things. The Sony version of the parable seems to center on the Walkman (as opposed to a camera), which was built in the late 1970s, and either Akio Morita or Masaru

Since Verizon's LTE network is available in over 100 cities, I think that it would be a selling point for AT&T if their LTE devices were able to roam on other networks for faster data transfers. I am reasonably certain that AT&T has
