TPP details definitely need to be in the public, but I'm surprised WikiLeaks is offering a bounty. Have they done this before? Not that I can recall. And I would think offering money would change the tone of prosecuting the "whist

A site like Github that hosts open source projects brings a lot of value to the community. Great search, and the same UI when going from project to project. This would be much more cumbersome and time consuming if every project was on a dif

Seems like the Performance Tools is now on par with Chrome, unless I'm missing something. These tools are sorely needed for web developers, Nik Molnar's talk[0] on web performance is a great intro on how to use these in real world

I feel like I'm not understanding the implications of this, because my reaction is "meh". Can't the FBI fly helicopters now without a warrant? What's different about this compared with past behavior? I guess I'

I think the implication is the Minecraft had stalled under Mojang, and that hopefully Microsoft can get things going again. Which is usually the opposite of what's expected when a large corp buys a small shop.

I agree that a very limited, free tier should help the product gain traction and let people try it out. But: > can build themselves for free Bootstrapping startups should not be focused on trying to save $10/month here and there by

If this actually works as promised, it would help with the environmental impact of disposable batteries by greatly extending their life.

Yeah but in context of the post, it sounded like that was meant to read "on company time".

Are you a parent? Not trying to dismiss your opinion, just want to make a counterpoint. Sure, pedophile interactions mostly never happen. But as a parent, I agonize over the awful (although rare) events that my kids could go through. So I&

If you're interested in this kind of thing, Becky Stern with Adafruit is a pretty great source for DIY wearables. Lots of tutorials and a regular Youtube series that keeps you updated on the latest products and tools.

Nope. As others have pointed out, every cast has to begin with a call to google.com (which is why chromecast must be connected to the internet). The call basically sends an id number to google, and then google returns a URL of where to get

Congrats, and good read. Off-topic: referring to the business as "she" comes across as very weird to me. Is this common? I know some women can find that offensive.

I think the headphone comparison is really weak. If you want to listen to any audio, in most settings you need headphones (at work, in public spaces). Smart watches do not fill that void. They may make certain tasks easier, but there are ot
