Many neurologists don't have a deep understanding of ADHD, so if I were to go to one, I'd need to find one that specializes in this field. My ADHD doctor was a psychiatrist, by the way. I agree with you about the Concerta. I have

Ever since the cryptocat fiasco I'm quite wary of trusting these kind of apps, that seem to be appearing like mushrooms lately. Can anyone with any crypto know-how comment on the security of WhisperSystems?

In that case, you can look at the modified date first. Better than re-calculating hashes. I guess the methods I propose will not guarantee proper syncing if for some reason a file has changed but the metadata hasn't...

My computer comes to a halt on boot because of the Dropbox client. I hate it. For some reason SugarSync does not do this kind of thing, so there has to be a way to do it in a smarter way. Why can't Dropbox remember the state of the fil

How would this be any different if a dialog box popped up asking you to install a new update? I bet most people (including you?) would just click "Continue".

If only YouTube's HTML5 video player wasn't so buggy! I have tried switching to the HTML5 player a couple of times, but a few days later I'm back to flash.

Your post implies that Obama has been forced to go along with this surveillance program, so it wasn't directly his fault. Being a liberal myself, I'm shocked to see how much Obama has been getting the benefit of the doubt by liber

Since we all start out as "females" in the womb, I guess it's possible that some environmental factors can obstruct whatever process is supposed to go on for for a full "conversion" of female -> male. That way yo

The scary thing is that integer overflows are considered rare so unlike things like null-pointer dereference no one really checks for them (heck, it seems impractical checking for it). In this case, how should they defend against an overflo
