Though I'm not familiar with Wordpress and it's theming system, this argument has indeed puzzled me. This article is spot on: why would a theme be beholden to the software's license? That said, maybe Wordpress themes are much different than

Putting aside the other issues I have with this story, Detroit seems like a pretty bad choice for locating manufacturing. The workers that the article alludes to being there are long used to being in a union that guarantees them ludicrously

For China, I feel like this is a slippery slope that will (despite the governments best efforts for many years) put the country on level ground with the rest of the world. Thus, China's enormous influence over the rest of the world will dec

I always thought the point of being a stealth startup was that your idea was relatively easy to copy in a not-quite-as-good way. Thus, if you were wide open some "entrepreneuring" company comes along, replicate it, and gain the first-to-mar

I grew up attending the Methodist Church (which up in Vermont didn't used to be quite the holy-rollers that they are in the South), and for a time in my youth was very religious. I attended a Catholic school for middle school, and convinced

It's not so much that it solves a problem as much as that it presents an experience that some people want. It is _exactly_ what I've wanted since netbooks came into existence, and I've put a lot of hours into setting up stripper Arch setups

For what its worth, the G20 coming to Pittsburgh and exploding like it did more to moderate my politics than anything I've ever seen. The police's actions were what police do when they're scared and charged with doing the impossible. It doe

Is it that far out of context? My reading of it was that he feels that SVG fonts is an unnecessary solution to a problem that is solved better by other options. Thus, he thinks that just because it's in the standard doesn't mean it's actual

Has Apple started suing people for jailbreaking or unlocking their iPhones? The people experimenting with running Android on them? No? They don't have to make it _easy_ for you to do anything you want. They can choose what functionality the

I was under the impression that the policy says that you agree to let them share your data if you do not go to the website and opt-out. Which to me, implied that the app store doesn't care (or even know) if you've opted out or not.

This speaks to why people are afraid of Grand Theft Auto: it isn't intrinsically bad; it can sometimes, however, speak a lot about people playing it. Even more so, though, it also speaks a lot that about our society that it places a lot of

I'd say that "slowing pace of Mac OS development" simply isn't true; if anything, I've felt like there is more development going on now that iOS is creating a large pool of Cocoa/ObjC developers. And also, it's still not less than ideal. No

I think he's making a stand at the wrong time. He says that he's leaving the Mac to protest Apple's gradual move towards walled gardens, away from open platforms. When the Mac ceases to be an open platform, and becomes a walled garden; when

Perhaps an even sadder comparison, as an intern at a web development company putting in similar hours, I'm making more than double that. You are clearly more experienced and skilled than I am; you deserve much much more.

Clean living and good apis in your products makes writing awesome little apps like this not to hard... which makes life good for all of us. This has me pretty psyched, honestly. The scripting possibilities are tantalizing.

I had been holding out until the next iMac refresh to buy a new computer; the 27inch screen and the Core i7 were pretty darn attractive. However,a server model paired with two cheap 22inch screens tempts me greatly, given the smaller dent o

Though other comments appear to have found the true, Lisa-derived history, I remember a great explanation from "Macworld Mac Secrets" (quite the noble tome; it certainly fed me full of tidbits about lesser-known features) Their explanation

I'd imagine this is feasible because they are getting more value in free advertising from this than the cost of running the servers. 2.4-3.2 Xeon can mean a _lot_ of things. My guess is that these are old servers that they'd otherwise fires

The improvement in the sharpness of the NYTimes logo is astounding. Call me a fanboy, but this kind of improvement in resolution is exciting. Also, imagine a 30inch panel at this ppi... one positively quivers.

I'm surprised that he's doing this... after so much vitriol about the Ruby (and Rails) community and being "ripped off" with Mongrel, I would have expected him to never touch it again. Granted, it's written in C, but I'd expect it to be hea

It's nice to see that Apple is starting to warm up to the idea of giving "express written consent" to apps doing things that might be considered to run afoul. If that got implemented on a larger scale, the concerns of developers who say "
