The term "most people" is terribly exaggerated. Defcon is not nearly as scary as some people make it out to be. If you have the latest security updates across your devices, disable wifi and take a few other precautions things are

If you are selling a 100 copies a month this forced refactor could be used to add additional features and revenue streams to the app. I see the annoyance with a forced move but I personally vote for better performance vs legacy app support.

I am sick of the "They are transparent so it's ok" argument. The fact is this type of thing should not happen anymore.. I get it, stuff fails but it's not acceptable to lose production data at this scale and save face by

Off topic but I find it strange that Google is not using it's own survey tool for the survey link the article (they are using Qualtrics)

Dolphin is great but I wish Nintendo would just get behind / build an emulation platform for all of it's legacy content and sell it to me for $100 - $150.. The NES Classic is a great example of what they could do (minus the awful

Part of this may be due to the fact that they are not trying to attract businesses with this change. In fact, the terms of service say that you cannot use this offer if it's for commercial purposes. I agree that an API would be very ni

Being laid off can really take a shot on your confidence but the approach you are taking seems to be a healthy one. You have also got a great set of skills to "fall back on" should bring your own boss not work out (I hope it does!

I am an amateur woodworker and you are 100% correct on the price of wood. It's based largely on geography as well. I cannot tell what type of wood was used for the build but the frame of that table appears to be pine which is pretty ch

Gnip ( http://gnip.com/ ) was just bought by Twitter. I would argue that they built their whole business on top of twitter & other social media companies.
