Yeah there's a whole bunch of them, they're different posts. I guess a couple of the Safari team dudes have started blogging recently...

I assumed that in this context 'successful' just meant 'met their funding targets', as opposed to 'successfully delivered the promised product/service in a timely manner'.

Agreed. I can't really help myself, even though I know when I read a Gruber article I'll inevitably just roll my eyes and groan.

The article implies that if you just let anybody infringe on your copyright and play/use your work however they feel, it'll pay off in the long run because you gain exposure. Seems like a _reasonable_ assumption, but I don't really think th

Brilliant, another blog post where somebody tells us how amazing the world is once you stop using social networks and start interacting with people "real world" in "real ways". Here's a news flash for you, dude, people have been doing tha

bitfloor was hardly the top US exchange. it was extremely promising but their volume was dwarfed by others.

We do most of our testing through cloud-hosted VMs now, like http://browserstack.com and http://saucelabs.com Sauce also lets you set up selenium/WebDriver testing so you can automate it.

if i remember correctly they _do_ encrypt your messages but authentication is based on something like your phone number as your username and your IMEI as your password or something absolutely ridiculous. i read about it on slashdot, and tol

agreed. the guy barely even mentions why he decided to move to linux, just that he did. or do people just like the sentiment?

The reason the extension 'breaks sites' is because an alarming number of sites are happy to serve unsecure content all over the place. See the refernece to New York Times in the original article for an example.

They even mention the first rule! And then go on to ignore it.

I wish articles like this wouldn't ruin it for everybody else.

think of all the AS3 developers starting to feel left out in the cold now that Adobe's walking away from Flash. while i'd agree that now's probably the time to jump into JS and HTML5, some people think Dart has a future, and I guess this op

mmm, it's a little hard to get excited when it's pretty much 99% junk. still, spose ebay started that way too.

Yeah, from what I've read the FBI took copies of everything they need and will essentially just flip the bird to NZ authorities. Go team USA.

Did anybody else notice that one of the divers was wearing an outfit sponsored by GoPro? Cheeky bastard...

Agreed, and it's also integral to the question of what is and isn't art.

Being flippant about contemporary art is about as easy as it gets. "Hey, look, this Rothko idiot just put a bunch of red on a canvas. What a tool." Perhaps I don't 'get' VICE. (edit) although having said that, art openings are one of my lea

Well, for a start, when you've got a fully developed API. We recently built a project that used a Backbone SPA for _some_ views, but was primarily server side. Now we're building a mobile version, and having built the API in the first phas

yeah, can't say that i have either. most of what i've read about it has been somewhat in awe of the complexity of the thing.

There's an app for jailbroken iphones that does something along these lines, basically a self-destruct button that would try to wipe everything if it was ever activated. Can't remember the name of it though, unfortunately.
