Maybe a strange question: I'm getting very tired of those mood movies because it's not me. I'm more interested in the movies shown on conversations.nokia.com because it's showing what the device can and does. Now I'

"Surveillance data will always be used for other purposes, even if this is prohibited." This stood out for me in the article. And I think this applies to all forms of data.

Some time ago I did a test for mobile screens. I used 64 color images at 2 times the size they had to be (for high-res displays). High-res devices don't scale those images, but because the pixels are so small 64 color images are still

A small rant: I think it is bad practice to hide content below the page height. I just wanted to close the website because I thought 'nothing to see here' before I accidentally scrolled and more content was revealed.

This is not about reducing noise it is about fixing aberration and distortion. So it even works on noisy images where you get a better quality image of the (still) noisy image. They never mention that they extract details that aren't t

Since I read articles about this I just use a varchar-fields for 'name' in my databases. Never had any issues with names after that. You can alway store name-elements as meta-fields as long as the original name is untouched.

I don't use PhpMyAdmin a lot, only when there is no other option available (I prefer SQLyog). But lately I got very frustrated by the interface changes. Then I discovered the option to enable the old theme again. A great tool!

Had to think about the same Las Vegas building. But the Vegas one even has a curve. So there is a potential lethal focal point. Sensational news item: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-hV_AawLSE

Ofcourse there should be a better alternative at the time you tell your customers to move on. But no, they didn't run to competitors. I don't want to sound very arrogant, but when your work is good, customers will stay because the

In the Netherlands we have a Don't Call Me List ( https://www.bel-me-niet.nl/ (call-me-not)). When you subscribe to the list it's illegal for companies to call you (for advertisement). Works very well.

Estimations are that Jolla is going to produce a batch of 50,000 units. http://techcrunch.com/2013/08/21/jolla-closes-first-pre-sale... So I think it's strange Canonical didn't make this happen.
