I'm a frontend dev who worked on Windows for 4 years, and switched to Mac in the last 2. The biggest hurdle I had with switching was the muscle memory of cmd-[char] vs. ctrl-[char], and tangentially the Windows-specific productivity ke

It's a quote from someone who works at a pro-legalization group; it's supposed to make you want to punch someone. (Not advocating for or against either side.)

Not the OP but I've only used the new Macbook for a few minutes (maybe about 15 in my lifetime), but to my mind, the feel of the new keyboard leaves a lot to be desired. And I personally don't need a computer to be much smaller th

I have a Steelcase Leap at the office, and I vastly prefer it to the Aeron I have at home. I got both on the secondhand market for about $350, though it's possible to get either cheaper.

This is compared to ~$2.50 a trip on the subway, which (depending on which line you're near and whether you have a transfer) could take substantially less time than a car ride. There are however some "subway deserts" -- the u

I don't know if I misread it, but I found this article almost entirely devoid of information about this transition. This is the only trace I could find: > Wanstrath told staff of the switch to bosses the month after his co-founder’s

The US political climate is most certainly not in a great place, but I wouldn't blame our system of checks and balances. In fact, I'd say that it's working as intended. It would be a horrible scenario if a president could eas

"Hotting up" appears to be a quirk of British journalism, not necessarily a "trend." Not exactly modern and young when the first usage was in 1923 by P. G. Wodehouse. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06&#

I think you're reaching. A person could say, "Some people need to use drugs, some don't" and still be either for or against drugs. Or could run a company that bans or allows drug usage.

Just to clarify, "unicore hair core" means "the core of the wand is a unicorn hair," not "the core of a unicorn hair is the wand." Anecdotally speaking, I've seen many references to hair being used in magi

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding you, but are you implying that (a) the CEO announced this salary increase to deflect any negative reaction to this suit, and (b) that denying any ulterior motive supports that theory? Both points seem shak

The ShopRite my parents used to go to when I was 10 (which would be in the mid 90s) had this, so it's not exactly a big strategic play on Aldi's part.

This article, in my opinion, didn't raise above the level of a petty rant. For a more nuanced look at Apple's Mac pipeline (which also predicted that WWDC wouldn't have hardware announcements), there's this from MacRumor

According to the article, you need the resource ID of the link to query it in the API. The resource ID seems difficult to get; you basically need to be viewing the conversation (and thus the link) to get the ID. While I agree it's _pos

If you get hired for many companies, they'll do a background check. Would you consider that overreach? And how is this any different? From my perspective, they're hiring someone to have access to their codebase; release their code

So a designer and developer were passionate enough about a framework to make a website about it. What about that bothers you? If you like the framework, and a professional website result in more people using it, then you win out. If you don

It would be nice if Facebook had some incentive for sharing ad revenue with large publishers, the way YouTube does; that seems like that would give at least some companies a way out of this hole. Is there any chance that someone like a Buzz

If you like puzzle games, I personally think Threes is a masterpiece of the touch interface game form. And the original is worth far more than the $3 you'd save playing one of its clones.
