It's because of the #include <stdio.h>, isn't it?

"should be"—have you tried setting your monitor to grayscale? (It's not quite accurate, but fairly close).

I think I'd almost be willing to use this interface if I got a terminal. Fortunately I have the option of jailbreaking.

Yes, but it's hard to quantify the benefits (or even the costs) of a security measure—it's just as much a risk evaluation as it is a cost one.

I'm not saying you should use that. It's just that "#!/bin/bash" shows 18 million results on Google while "#!/usr/bin/env bash" shows only 121,000.

Yes, I remember reading that at some point, but what I found interesting is that they seem to be trademarking not the glyph , but the codepoint , so these fonts: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Use_Areas#U.2BF8FF

Oddly enough, that page is giving me a 405: $ curl -IL http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/main/ref=olp_merch_name_1\?ie=UTF8\&asin=0521141885\&isAmazonFulfilled=0\&seller=A2HO9KC0NMYNYH HTTP&#x2

Just downloaded https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hacker-news-yc/id713733435?m... and commenting from it sucks (you have to tap the little link that shows a web view of the site). Usually I use ihackernews but

I don't get why this is so newsworthy and "innovative". Matias makes a good line of keyboards[0] (even a mechanical one!) based on the same concept, just with 1 wireless and 1 wired connection. Wired is a lot less of a hassle

If you're on a Mac, TextMate is still going strong and that's what I use. If you are on Windows I would like to know the answer too.

OK. You're probably right. But AP CS was not difficult for anyone. If you did the work, you got an A+. And then the exam was worthless as an indicator of how good you are. Even my friend who tried to copy and paste off Yahoo Answers go

What triangle character are you using there in your prompt? Sorry, but I haven't found a way to make it 'stick' to the background before it using any font (at least at 14pt). Edit: OK, I found the character/theme you are

I am looking forward to this actually being used. It has been a big deal for a while and all we've got so far is... a condom? It's much more affordable now. What would be really cool is if the iWatch had this (not planning on buyi

Regarding #3: > Bland landing pages are often the best at converting visitors, surprisingly. I think that's because you need to see more. The less information on the landing page, the more you're going to want to click to the

The top comment on the page: > "You've watched your 1000th Blu Ray disc. Please step away from the player. Commencing burnout in 5...4..." I really hope this is too expensive for consumer electronics. If they want they c

I guess not on iOS, but on Android you have to go through a few more steps to "chat" -- home > messenger app > search contacts > chat, versus just tapping a button. That is 2 more screens worth of ads to go through.

This is just an opportunity for Facebook to show twice as many ads as usual. It's sad, but I really do feel bad for the people who use Facebook nowadays. When I have to look at the job market again, I'm really not looking forward

For the Mighty Mouse you just need to kind of turn it upside down and roll it on a piece of paper to clean it out. But I guess you're right, the only time I really use a mouse for an extended period of time is when browsing the interne

Journalism in general. They've figured out it's more profitable to say something made-up, pretty sounding, and fake than to actually report the news .

Just reading the first sentence was enough for me. Apple has a good enough marketing team already; they don't need to have Time Magazine do this. I think this article is a bad idea for Apple's PR in general. I'm not even sure

I don't see much wrong with them, other than the new backwards scrolling, disappearing scrollbars and rubberbanding. I use the Magic Mouse, which to me feels pretty nice. The only trouble I have really had is that they're crap for
