I understand this is a challenging area for Google, but establishing deeper ties with the carriers, and strengthening consumer dependence in them makes me sad.

Just took a look at your sample chapter. Looks neat! I have a question. I have been playing with landing page design recently, and just started using Google web fonts. I found it interesting that you excluded Google web fonts from your l

California has a separate state law dealing with IT worker overtime. Does anybody know if this federal bill would supersede state law?

You misinterpreted and/or mischaracterized what was said. Paying attention to new software development practices has nothing to do with reading tech news. Additionally, your perspective seems grossly shallow.

Attacking these policies by boycotting US companies seems much to indirect to result in much progress. Instead, petition your (their) own elected governments to bring change. If people are sufficiently outraged, then change should come.

It looks like they upped the price. We will see if it influences demand.

Many of the sessions that I attended last year at io were packed. Hopefully the additional day helps alleviate this.

Steve Ballmer is an example of a sales guy as ceo of a tech company. Perhaps he is a victim of bad timing, but I wouldn't call his tenure as successful. He will ultimately leave the company in a worse position than when he took the ceo re

While your post was in jest, it is (somewhat) unfortunate that the NFL bans this sort of technology from the game. I wonder if the top quantitatively skilled talent would be more highly prized to NFL teams than a top-flight QB.

How so? My loyalty card is not linked to my preferred form of payment (atm).

Pardon my ignorance on the matter of ad revenue, but $0.04 per each search query? That sounds very high.

In 2010 I had a free app featured that had no previous traction. At the time, the app had been in the Appstore for about three weeks, and my second update just been made available. Total downloads before being featured were under 20. To

To the downvoter(s), I would appreciate your open feedback if you take issue with my straight critique (based on my real experiences) of the company's service.

I am sure it all works fantastically when set up properly. For me, I was new to remote notifications, and I was struggling to get my notification certificates copasetic. The Parse debugging tools (logging) made it a challenge for me to f

About two months ago I tried their notifications API for an iPhone app that I was building. I found their tools to be less mature that urban airship. My only question to them went unanswered.

An effective method of filtering out recruiters would be to require a screening (paid for by the company). A few simple checks would cut out 95% of the problem.

If they could determine the value of each option (others do it), they could then sort by "best value". With your Infinity G35 example, if the options that you mentioned were worth $1,500, then the nicer equipped G35 would appear first.

Its pretty clear that the government wants is to inject themselves in the whole distribution chain of online commerce, from advertising, search, payment, etc. DNS was just one link. That's pretty worrisome.

If it is indeed something that can be installed onto a PC, one key difference between this and the other media distributions may be whether it is cablecard certified. From what I understand, you need to be in order to receive encrypted HD

Will they provide the system as a download for people to incorporate into their own HTPC? I need something that will talk cablecard, and so far (afaik) Windows Media Center is the only game in town.

Why should the NBA bother with messy details like dealing with fans directly when somebody (networks) gladly pays (up front) for the privilege?

That's because you're swimming in their pond. Get out of Dice and find other ways to meet people who work for the companies that you want to work with.

Considering how Google has handled "customer support" in other areas of their business, the "override" option sounds like a cop-out. What Youtube/Google should have done is require an arbitration system funded by "rights-holder", backed by

I don't quite understand the problem. Zynga's closing stock price reflects what the market perceives its value to be at market close. Just because it closed down doesn't mean that the market doubts the company. It simply reflects a diffe

I thought Amazon was arguing that it was too complex for them to collect sales tax for all of the states? Wasnt that their whole argument in their right with three state of California?

As somebody who has tried last.fm, I found the experience lacking. But that doesn't necessarily mean that the model is flawed.

Is it really true that a sustainable distribution model needs to work for all of these stakeholders? Sustainable doesn't necessarily mean that it puts food on everybody's table, but instead, that it just exists, and that the participants (

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of development do you typically do on your MBA? I have a 15" MBP, and considered a MBA, but I am worried that having available real estate a tad smaller would be a detriment, even with the high resolut
