What's even worse is that we, the developers, their customers, will never get to know what happened. Because that's the Apple way. I'd really love that Apple proves me wrong on this one and comes clean on the problem, the cau

I am not a lawyer, but is this not illegal in the U.S.? Checking The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission website[1], it says under the "PROHIBITION OF AGE DISCRIMINATION" section: (e) Printing or publication of notice

I wish those retargeted ads were smarter. They should reset the given "intent" after an action is taken. Early this year, I bought a watch for my girlfriend as a surprise gift for our anniversary. I made the mistake of doing some

Thank you Zach, those were the conclusions that I jumped into only to make myself feel less bad about not making the cut. It is clear by the comments here that your process gives an equal opportunity to each one of the candidates and referr

I really feel that I meet all the requirements mentioned here, but sadly, I was rejected for the previous batch. Looking back, I want to believe that I was rejected because I was living abroad and they probably felt I wasn't really sur

I think this is because V8, the JavaScript engine for Chrome uses USC-2 encoding. USC-2 characters can take up to 16 bits, not enough room to hold most of Unicode 6.0 characters. There have been previous discussions about the topic here on

Besides the P2P, I think that with the native client they went after iTunes at that time. Their first versions of the client (not sure if current ones), scanned your hard drive to organize your music library, allowed you to purchase individ

I'm curious: how is it possible that the lower-latitude route is almost one thousand miles longer than the great-circle one, and still, one plane took just 11 minutes more to get to Paris than the other at almost exactly the same speed? Or

Does Mailbox stores your e-mail in their servers? Even if it's temporary, I don't think is a good idea. Why exactly do they need to do this? Building the same awesomeness on top of an IMAP client wouldn't have achieved the same goal?

Let's picture a similar situation 20 years ago: I own the domain "books.com" but my company is called Amazon. I own the domain "movies.com", but I choose to name my company Netflix. Believe me, we'll get used to the Rakuten name.

Not only LibreOffice, this is somewhat a general sentiment I have about most Open Source Software. If I were a designer I'd love to be part of such an important project like this. I don't get why designers are always doing stuff like redesi

Linux is just the kernel and all different distributions (Ubuntu et al) are based on it. Think of it as if the Twitter Api was the kernel and all different clients like Twiterrific or Tweebot were the distributions (Ubuntu, Fedora, etc...).

Thanks for your concern Matthew, I'm not very worried about this. That 13% of difference in speed is most probably due to the fact that Amazon has a Cloudfront edge location in Madrid, the city most of my traffic comes from. I haven't reall
