Many people already know what sites they don't want, and never open these links. But to block those links, do users really have to open a link and return to Google to block it? Also, the sites that have already been blocked with the extensi

This is why I don't really find the images of much use, but they are still fascinating. I think the images completely fail to show the spirit of a movie, all they are good for is for _reviving_ the partially lost feeling of a watched movie

I am not sure of that. I don't have enough evidence to deny nor to accept it. I remember once another classmate had a presentation and she spoke faster than normal and got criticized for it. However I did not think she was speaking fast unt

I used to speak that fast, and I still do when I forget to speak slow. The problem is that most humans can hardly follow the speaker and think about it at the same time. I was actually forced to learn to speak slow in high school by my lan

There is no focus in the app. I have no idea what to do when I see the UI. Try removing all the unnecessary lines and complexities, such as the borders of the images, the dividing line between the top bar ("Journal") and the subheading("rec

After watching some videos on their website I was completely amazed. The opportunities that this API creates are amazing. I can't wait to see some 3D games for the browser. Adobe is pushing the limits again by incorporating some very low l

They have the money to offer something for free, so if it makes customers happier, there is no reason not to do it. Offering "free space" for very HQ images and long videos would not be cost efficient.

I did something very similar some time ago: http://pedro.si/experiments/color-clock/ It's CSS3 and some Javascript.

The same happens from google. Sometimes they come from google groups, sometimes their blog, etc. However I am not sure this is that much of a deal. Unless you are on a mobile device, its pretty simple to close a tab you didn't want.

Indeed you're right. There is also Flex SDK, however most beginners don't know that, and think they need Flash Pro or Flash Builder to get started.

by pedrokost 16y ago
Many people complained about flash poor performance and acclaimed HTML5 as a technology that will make the web better. Well, in some ways it has, but unfortunately it will replace Flash for such effects and possibly make it worse. Everyone

You're right. Human beings are not searching for a local/global maximum, we try to follow the easiest route there is. So, if you really can't motivate yourself, try to find the easiest path there is to get you exercising. One easy way is to

I don't want to sound rude, but I think that you are just pushing exercise for some day in the future that may never arrive. I don't bike to school either, I use public transportation, however I regularly exercise. Believe me, there is time

I may be wrong, but deactivating automatic updates is not something a normal user would know how to do, since probably he doesn't even realize, that their Chrome browser is constantly being updated. Those who do deactivate the auto updates

Instead of deleting it, you may want to share it in a torrent file. Maybe someone could make some better use of it.

While i like the change, I don't understand the choice for a drop down menu at the right side. Rolling over a button to read you name and email, a link to your profile (which I most probably will not find very useful ) and sign out button

It's simply because with most urls, when you type them without www they will work and send you to the page you are looking for, even if the url includes www. Therefore www presents no additional typing for the user. However the TLD does.
