I wonder for whom are these marketing materials. No one chooses to use IE, and those who use it because it's a default browser do not need any justification.

There are always two ways in such situations - make perfect law or apply imperfect law selectively. If you ask me, I prefer perfect law (but I am biased because I'm in Russia and I often see how selective application may be terribly abused)

It does, and I think it is easier to pick up signal of a floating object than of an object 2 miles below sea level...

Wow, micropayments meet M&A. Nice!

If this feature becomes popular among webmasters (it should, as many use only Adsense which is usually far from intrusive), it will become annoying for the user. I see a possible solution in tracking users' decisions to show or disable supp

I routinely take screenshots of design elements that I like on the web and when brainstorming on some design work I have to do I first check out my small collection.

IMHO Mediatemple is terribly overpriced* even wrt Slicehost - Their 40GB/512MB/1.5TB plan costs $100/mo for example. * - I've no idea how much CX costs though

wannabetechgeek, that's truly the best advice you can get. You may think that being a business guy you will easily find hackers to build your idea for equity, but that's just not the case unless you have a lot of hacker connections and an e

Do you really DROP or TRUNCATE the table, or do you DELETE all rows? Doing the latter could be the problem as far as I know. You may also want to search for 'purge process' somewhere in mysql/innodb docs.

Speaking of Ubuntu usability, I just don't understand why they require me to pick a location closest to me in order to download Ubuntu. In the age of free IP geolocation databases they could at least fill this field with a best guess base

> But they're neither IT nor marketing savvy, so they're probably wrong :) Really, geeks and marketers can't be wrong about what normal people like, except when that contradicts with what normal people say they like :)

I don't think there is anything noobish or wrong in thinking of your computer as just a tool (not that you said that directly, but it could be inferenced). What is it, in the end? A tool for communication, development, research, whatever. S

Could someone please explain me what's worth 50 points in this article? Millions of people worldwide unlocked their 2G iPhones to pay less or to use their service provider. There isn't anything new or interesting in it.

In Russia, most popular online payment systems are probably webmoney.ru and money.yandex.ru The major difference from PayPal is that 1) these systems are de facto local, and 2) your account is not linked to your debit/credit card, rather, y

I wanted to apply last fall but my day job prevented me from building anything demoable in time and, being in Russia and not having any hacker reputation (I'm bachelor of Economics, worked in management consulting) I figured I had no chance
