I can't even imagine the justification in a board meeting that allows for shrinkage on their scale for such an easy resolution. To me, a simple resolution would be to escalate the "item not received," issue to a state side de

Amazing that the scammer is even able to have the fraudulent replacement item sent to a different address than where the order was originally sent not once, but twice and an address not associated with the account nor confirmed/verifie

Netflix is really amazing to me! I am SO impressed by their model and the plethora of data that they can just sift through (I love analytics and data mining). Netflix has went from dvds by mail, to video content distribution, to an ACTUAL b

Wow!!! Whoever did the write up for Homekit had to have seen the MIT workaround for using Siri and an audrino to open a garage door. What a nice subtle "props," from Apple. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=

My FAV key combo is simple: FN + Backspace Since I use the terminal ALOT, this key combo is the same behavior as delete on a full keyboard. It will delete text in front of the cursor. Another helpful one I found out through trial and error

Now...I'm not sure if a $30 million cost would be considered a tax write-off, esp when it's the IRS, or will it just fall under their whoopsie daisy category on their annual budget (kinda like their failed Star Trek YouTube ad

Reminds of a kaleidoscope. Since you've based the package on Javascript, it wouldn't be too difficult/time-consuming to add some css3 animation to make it transform as such. Props on making the Trianglify object so clean.

Maybe some NetSec guys could answer this please. What would happen with his update to Notepad++? Would it still update the package? Even if the target set his computer to auto-update (or something that did not require admin authentication),
