I've loved using my Nexus 7 for the last year. Great device at a brilliant price point. Really looking forward to using 4.3 on this too.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm guessing though that it wouldn't be too hard to put OpenWRT on the box?

NPR ran a story about 3-4 months ago where they interviewed this teenager in Florida while recounting the story. I couldn't believe my ears. It sounded like textbook entrapment. Are the police in these areas so desperate for drug-relat

I managed to open accounts with Chase while my SSN application was still pending / didn't have the paperwork in hand yet. They chased me up afterwards for it though and have sent me paperwork repeatedly asking for the information (SSN, reas

I've been mulling over this idea for quite a while after moving into a place on my own and wanting to eat healthier. Really excited to start using it. Impressive execution. Best of luck with this! I'm definitely rooting for its success

Interesting. I installed 5.0.2, removed anything that would be interfering with my .zshrc and still have the same problems.

We've used MongoHQ extensively for the last 2 years and have always found them to be excellent. The team is both incredibly dedicated and knowledgable. They are the experts in anything MongoDB related. If you're thinking of using MongoDB yo

From my (albeit limited) observations I thought they never turned away citizens but obviously I was wrong. Getting appointments with the US embassy can sometimes be a challenging ordeal. They do however make allowances for emergency appoint

We use Hipchat at work at the moment and while I like it overall there are some issues that they need to address. The Air app for desktop can sometimes have performance issues for no particular reason. They're about to release a native OS X

IRC was, at least for me, one of the main reasons that I pursued tech and started programming at a young age. A friend of mine introduced me to a local Irish group of Linux enthusiasts/sysadmins/engineers who put up with my foolish question

The on-campus limitation would also be a bit much for me. I'm living in Downtown Menlo Park which means that I'd have to go onto Stanford campus to rent a car. Think I'll just have to wait until I'm 21 :)

I seem to remember Google offering something very similar to this that relied on scanning a QR-code on a known device? (I could be mixing stories though)
