I don't think Apple would be so quick to throw away the hacker market like that. Do you think they don't know that their computers are incredibly popular for sysadmins, web developers, and other developers who aren't necessarily writing Co

I really think Valve knows how to do this right. If you get people hooked on the gameplay they'll pay for silly extravagances. See: Basketball and LA Lights.

I think it's really interesting to see so many people here jumping up to defend gaming. Nobody is blaming games or gaming, the original post simply states that like everything else, you should make sure that you moderate the amount of gami

There are a lot of people who take great pictures and upload them to Instagram. Yes there are people who think the filter makes the picture. No, you are not compelled to follow them.

I uninstalled it almost immediately after installing. Cool idea but you shouldn't change the entire look and feel of the site. See Reddit Enhancement Suite as a good example of how to write and present a site addon. Great idea, it's just

We're an agency that does client work so a lot of times we're each lone-wolfing a separate project and there's less need for constant communication. We do have a chat room and we're all on AIM. If you want to talk to someone who has headp

This is true. I hesitate to call it a diet simply because then people ask what I think is going to happen when I stop, and because saying that you're on a diet has certain connotations that I don't identify with and don't feel like explain
