"Except the work Steve Wozniak is most remembered for was done with Steve Jobs" It was actually a common misconception. Nearly all the engineering work for Apple 1,2 was done by Woz alone (as per his book). And Apple 1 was completely done i

Follow the link that facebook provides in its header: http://www.facebook.com/help/?page=219494461411349 It's very interesting. They straight out say P3P is a dead protocol. And from the explanation of how it works, it does seem to be a j

Keeping Google's blunders aside, the P3P policy as described seem to be a joke. Do they really expect third party sites to be honest with a browser ? At least they had to do some magic on Safari.. this seems too straight forward and begging

Once this case ends - one way or the other - will Oracle be able to sue Google again by picking up some more patents (from its 500 odd java patents) ? Or is this case the end of suing based on Java related patents...

Happens for me too :) .. Some days I seed what I want to dream about before sleeping (usually by watching a related genre movie).. I can go back to the same dream if interrupted for a few minutes (5-10).. not hours though... Once in the dre

Do you think this would have been averted if they took all the measures you are proposing ? There are no set guide lines here according to which the government is taking down stuff.. This is not DMCA related to create an process to take dow

Wow, what an elegant and simple to use app. It feels a tiny bit sluggish though (or may be its just my firebug pulling me down)

I tried really hard to get used to DDG for an entire week. I changed my bookmarks to DDG, learned hashbang syntax etc.. But at the end of the week I just came to know how much more google does than DDG. I kept missing: Auto complete (sugges

They use a proxy for that (though currently its not implemented properly - example: they are directly sending /background-image urls as /proxy/url("someimage") - so not loading). But I think this is a nice base to build on. All that needs t

I think the reason for this kind of slow evolution is lack of generic properties (like --surprise-- internet explorer's filters ) which lets developers push the boundaries on their own with in a reasonable limit. For example, support for bo

While I do understand that there might be some complexity involved when dealing with payment gateways etc, 6 months sounds too long.. were you learning development on the way ? I'm honestly curious...

I found eaxyXDM to be well.. not so easy. Not in actual usage but it felt like too much of magic going around, which made me uncomfortable using it (what if some thing breaks and I'm not able to fix it..). I ended up using much more limited

I think this is as good opportunity as taking on GoDaddy. It's not every year you get an opportunity to pull down people in power who work against those they were elected to serve. If Lamar Smith goes down, I bet proponents of future bills

Software patents are already not valid in India. So no patent on implementing one-click buying. On the other hand, no protection for mpeg family of protocols either.

I'm betting that any start-up company that comes out with a truly usable home robot in US will go out of business within its first year of operation. If a tiny thermostat can infringe on 7 patents, imagine how many patents will 'infringed'

I found WebStorm useful too. Only problem is how slow it feels to be (after using visual studio for other development). Listing members of an object by typing a "." (dot) takes for ever. Also, it takes so much of RAM :(.
