Well, that is not the full story though... I expect older people to watch more TV. All my grand parents basically sit in front of the TV all day... I would expect I would watch a lot more if I was older currently, even simply because I woul

There has been a single sign on for most services for a long time (although the login page was different in some cases depending on which service you were accessing). The difference now is that they re designed the log in interface to be th

I agree, also I personally prefer the idea of having things separate, HTML for the structure, CSS for the style, and JavaScript for the behavior. You can create very clean and neat pages like that especially if you don't mix each techn

Well actually, you can do nearly all the tricks in windsurfing without stopping and sinking and coming out of it planing... it is just incredibly difficult to do though. Even the top surfers don't manage very often

Internet has made a big difference for kite boarding, but I would say it has had the same effect on windsurfing recently so I don't think the comparison is necessarily correct. Rather it is the differences in the sports themselves that

It may be just me, but I personally would not mention the lines of code as a success story metric. I feel like lots of line of code usually means bloat. That aside, I often use phpMyAdmin and it is a great tool for those quick little edits!

Off topic, I did not know about meanpath and I was looking for a (website) source code search engine for sometime. https://meanpath.com/f/ If they opened all the search results I would surely use this often.

I have been wanting to set up my own mail for quite a while (I don't really care about it being encrypted etc. at the moment). Ideally this is going to give me the right push to do so. I do have a dedicated server so that makes things

I can imagine a similar thing with a lot more data sources and reliable data to be very impressive and scary at the same time. If you had access also to phone data, with position etc. it would be the ultimate stalking tool...

In the UK you only pay 9% of what is over 21k pa though, so its not that bad (note, this is different than 9% of the total wage). There are also a few more benefits. Technically if you never find a job you will never have to pay for your tu

Just for clarity, the numbers reported by Netcraft in the monthly survey blog post are referencing all sites, active sites, and top 1M sites. Not to saying that the picture may not be different in the top 1k.

Depending on the context, I fully agree (most stuff here is about web development so in general shipping a broken web page is fine - it wont cause too much damage even when it happens, and it can be fixed quickly). In Safety Critical Softwa
