I wish I could give you more than one upvote. Perhaps even a googol of them.

My nephew has $0.26 coming to him. I wonder if he'll track down a notary for the form that will charge less. Next question is: drive in the form or mail it? ;)

Pretty well captures my experience, though there's a lot to like about Python, it's 3rd parties that are making it accessible in spite of what's at python.org. Also, the CP4E concept is regularly decried as defunct and unworkable in Python

Both relate to problems with Finder that go all the way back to the beginning of OS X. I suppose people used to OS X often become blind to them. #1: Yeah, you'd think a visible sidebar with Applications visible would make sense. I've seen s

Most likely a sonic shock wave, not an explosion. Even if the meteor broke up, that's very unlikely to be the source of the sound. It's more likely like a sonic boom you're hearing.

Look closer, I think he's referring to the "filth" of a popular spreadsheet program. ;)

This dour-faced child actroid is pretty old now. Newer models aren't as odd-looking (except for the one made to demonstrate the underlying technology that looks like a Meccano project with teeth and eyeballs.) Kokoro has a travelling exhibi

An interesting attention getter for rescued animals. Not sure if I'd want a dog that thinks it can drive, though.

Perhaps their usability testing shows most users don't like scrolling (or that those that do prefer image searches?)

That would still allow for plenty of scrolling, even if less than infinite. Plus, setting the cut-off at 1000 seems more of a "will not" than "can not".

GSM is still what I buy a phone for. The ready availability of Wifi without monthly fees makes LTE less significant for me as time goes on.

Selecting your data can make your numbers look better than numbers that are generated in a more authoritative fashion. If you're in the business of developing a market of suckers, this may be a profitable practice.

Yeah, like, back in the old days we had a link to an 8085 instruction reference card that got some attention. I think that was about four months ago... ;)

One thing I've seen in the Khan Academy videos is that they focus on one small slice of information at a time. This is often hard to do in the classroom. While I tend to lean toward the "cover less in class, but get better understanding of

This may be too techie for what you're looking for, but if you fry it, there's only $30 at stake, not 300: http://timeline-inc.com/hacker.html#mini It's a 1.4cm full color LCD display. It needs an NTSC composite signal.

Talk to a lawyer even if it's worth less. Even if all you do is a nastygram, a nastygram on a lawyer's letterhead is worth far more than one from you. It won't be very expensive, but may have very valuable results all by itself.

Cute quiz, but they needed a broader range of people for comparable results. My best match was only 68%. Plus, there are presumptions in some of the answers that'll push you elsewhere than where you might really be. But hey, still a pretty
