Apple traditionally has an 'about' page where they attribute open-source projects, etc. Doesn't this version of iPhoto have the same? Or perhaps the iPad/iPhone version has no 'about' page? [edit: by 'page', I mean a dialog box or somethi

Can you read the post without signing into a Google account? I click through via my iPhone, and get prompted for a Google account. Isn't this a post about getting tracked on the web?

I live in the same area and get decent performance with sonic. Things feel fast. Until recently, I had Verizon FIOS, and Sonic doesn't feel all that much slower (or maybe I've become accustomed to the drop in speed). I love how the DSL just

The car is too risky to purchase if it can brick. There is no way to ensure that a brick can't happen. Any charging source could malfunction (e.g., trip a circuit breaker) without you becoming aware. You have to plan your whole life around

It is self limiting to look at it in terms of earning money. Clearly happiness is life's goal --- not money (nor prestige, nor power). If you are smarter, as Lyons says he is, then it should be possible to transcend the environment. I'm not

Someone found a way to bypass the PR dept to let you know that Microsoft's IM networks support lawful intercept (and that company policy supports this).

That's awesome. Of course, if we just want money, prestige, and success, then that is what we want. But if we want opportunities to grow, then the startup should be a challenge demanding our best to achieve success --- it should not be an

This type of thing wouldn't help you get a job with me. It could make a difference in getting an interview with me, if you had no real experience on your resume/CV. I want a well-balanced team player, that has a good chance to flourish on

This is the first explanation of the differences between Facebook and Google+ that has connected with me. I don't know that Google+ is what I want though --- I like finding people with shared interests, but I prefer in person.

One without power relationships --- thus without American moral conditioning. Just because we grew up in the American system doesn't mean that other systems don't exist. It is far easier to raise a happy, flourishing, nuerosis-free child th

Is it proper to study canine pyschology via dogs kept chained all day long? It helps you understand the chained dog, if that is your goal --- but it doesn't teach you the nature of the dog. I'd like to see studies of teenagers raised neuro

Yes, that is a good point, and something I see too --- I was just trying to take a shortcut, and say it from the poster's p.o.v., and like usual, my shortcuts backfire.

Feel relieved that you discovered their true character before you actually moved there and joined them and invested time with them. They are probably lying about your performance to have an excuse to rescind the offer --- now you know some

I believe that the written offer letter helps you seek damages related to relocation, losing health coverage, etc., due to the expectation of starting a new job. At-will employment lets you fire people without consideration, but it doesn't

They don't call the system low latency --- it is the processing that occurs in the single-threaded main loop that has to be low latency. They of course want the end-to-end system to be low latency, but the term here describes the inner w

I don't agree with his point that employees stick it out for long-term success in other places, while they don't in the Valley. Just because people stay with a company for a longer time doesn't mean that they subscribe to a different cultu
