I use AdAway from F-droid repository. It supports custom hosts files and exception. The only gimmick is it requires root.

I moved to Orange County after living in Bay area for 4+ years and I don't miss a bit. The ridiculous cost of living, full of pretend-like-entrepreneurs, incubator scams etc was too much. Looking back I wish I hadn't caught up in

Do you happen to know how is it different in US? I am curious on what would happen if someone simply refused to provide the decryption key.

Exactly. I feel for those authorities who work months to seize a domain and the site is back in about 5 minutes with a different domain. Imagine if they put this much effort in something good.

Can't believe another earthquake has hit Nepal and it's even worse. Please pray for the people of Nepal and donate. A little can make all the difference.

I thought they only created an app(launcher) called 'Facebook Home'. Did they ever fork android like Fire OS and Firefox OS?

So far we have: - Facebook (networking) - Messenger (messaging) - Hello (calls and callerID) Facebook should just fork Android, integrate all of these and release their own build.

Javascript was never designed to support realtime platform which sets up a foundation for an application. I don't see how ES6, ASM.js, Node.js etc will addresses challenges such as scalabiility, high mainteanance, poor design etc. You

I cannot recommend 'The Society of Mind' enough. This was my first book before diving into Cognitive Science. Although it is mostly psychology(i.e.speculation), it is a brilliant book with insights and ideas.

But what about companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple etc? They have the same strategy as well. They use their brand to gain that initial traction and test out a new product. And I disagree with you about a discontinued product hurting the

I thought having local service providers would be cheaper. So I compared some of their prices with Walmart and Best Buy. TV Wall Mounting (my won mounting bracket): Amazon: $229, Geek Squad: $149.99 Tire installation Services (2 tires): Ama

The whole team relied on me so it was a hard decision. I gave them a month notice and slowly transitioned myself out of the meetings, code reviews and architectural decisions. I felt bad but it was the right decision for me and my career.

I was on the same boat. After working for 2 years delivering over 5 projects, I decided it was time to move on. Not to sound too arrogant but I was fed up teaching and guiding others. I was doing over 80% of work by myself and it was a hect
