A linked list is a pretty elementary data structure. That being said, these questions seem like they're for a job writing client software on Windows some time before .NET existed.

Not to knock your efforts, but this looks like a naive and wasteful approach to privacy. It seems like it would be pretty easy to separate the needle from the haystack when dealing fake searches (are any links clicked from fake searches? ar

Subreddits allow curation by group and group-specific discussions instead of classification en masse. It also allows private (you have to apply for membership/not publicly viewable) groups and community-specific discussions. There are diffe

The site continues to be useful to many people primarily because of subreddits. I still remember when subreddits were first introduced. All the users were certain this was a bad idea and that reddit should have implemented tagging instead.

It is slightly worse than Delicious. Haven't used the other two. It is disappointing that Google gets the remarkably simple things wrong and then adds convoluted features that don't appear to be useful to most users. Two annoying things I r

This might be useful if Google Bookmarks wasn't more neglected than Delicious.

Ubuntu currently uses Rhythmbox as a music player. Ubuntu added an integrated music store ( https://one.ubuntu.com/music/ ) to Rhythmbox that is part of a service called Ubuntu One. Revenue from this is part of what funds Canonical. Ubuntu

For pete's sake... I'm a fan of Moglen and the SFLC but this is about as practical as a bicycle with square wheels.

Targeting "fake-looking" names is useless if anyone can register with a realistic fake name with no scrutiny.

Meh, hard to get excited over vaporware.

I hope that's not the jist of it because that is pretty terrible for an explanation.

The patents will in turn by analyzed by MPEG LA, and those deemed to be relevant will be pooled together. The pooled patents will then be available to license as a single convenient bundle. It looks like they are gearing up to do the same

If you've got a better idea for how intellectual property should be protected or not, then, please start a political movement. Don't go after people following he laws as they are. Given the existence of the system, companies must patent an

I used to be an early-adopter and gadget geek. I've owned a few crappy mp3 players (never an iPod for some reason) and even a Nokia 770 (also crappy). I think that was the last of my tech gadget purchases. These days I just own a nice lapto

Yeah, I might like to own something similar with a good browser like you mentioned but I can't see consumers buying a lot of Android or Web OS tablets.

I don't think the market for these things is huge as he suggests. Why would anyone buy a non-Apple touch or tablet device? I can see the argument for smart phones from different vendors, but not for these causal computing touch devices. And

Jaggies aren't a good thing. No anti-aliasing is a good thing if you have a high enough dpi. I don't think 100 is going to cut it, though.

Just once it would be great if tech companies could lay off the hyperbole and posturing and just give it to us straight. Bing copying Google? Not really. Honeypot attack ? Give me a break. Here's what appears to be the truth: The Bing tool

Apple said if the app lets you buy books outside of the app, i.e. you click the buy button inside the app and are then sent to the webpage to purchase the book, then the app must also let you purchase the book without leaving the app by us

I think the stream that it accesses is completely advertising-free too. I don't think it has to do with the stream. When an ad comes up it just fetches a new playlist.

I've used the pianobar client for a long time. (I'm on Linux and there's no official native client.) It breaks every so often and you have to wait a day or so for it to get fixed. A 'feature' of this unofficial client is that it doesn't pla

Dawkins seems to believe that to be hired as a scientist, one must believe in the truth of the model one uses. I can't quite understand why he holds this view - at least in my experience, scientists study hypothesis they don't believe in a
