It's good-looking. The discussion here alerted me to Layers and to give it a test drive. I'm working in the trial on a tablet. The layout's cutting off a lot -- can't even h scroll to it. http://m.imgur.com&

What engineering solution would have prevented this driver's death? She knew a train was coming from the bells, flashing lights, and closing gates. She had at least 30 seconds to react. If you mean a more elegant solution -- a differen

This would be a lot of engineering for an issue that shouldn't need it. In the case described in the parent article, the gates, lights, and signal bells worked as designed. The driver had warning and ample time to react -- even enough

Some of us hope it succeeds for more than nostalgia. Microsoft is doing nothing coherent to compete with iOS and Android. The ecosystem is reasonably healthy; a third real player could make it more so. If they're to be just another And

I've heard -- and am biased to believe -- there are some practical bases for kosher laws. Some people got trichinosis from mishandled pork, e.g., and prohibition is simpler than quality assurance; Other, non-Hebrew cultures cooked lamb

Others share your surprise. From the piece: "Another said, “He was shocked. And I’m kind of shocked that he was shocked. He was trying to make sense of it all.”"

I've been running publications and notes through this. My notes are often very unstructured. The categories and relevant words the platform's returning are helping home in on the points. The synopses have been 70%+ of the way to

Agreed that Chrome dev tools are awesome for devs. A heatmap like this is much more approachable to a significant portion of the dev-related population. It will be useful and time-saving when you're explaining to a product person, e.g.

I believe I understand what you're saying. But there's been very little objective reporting through the entire course of history. Humans have biases, preconceptions and filters. History, itself, is the record written by the victor

Who said "not in the business of social?" Google, or someone up your Uni chain of command relaying the message to you? If the former, that would have G+ and YouTube connotations. I don't think someone at Google said that to y

I'm likely missing your point. "Only musicians are asked?" Several fields are having their creation, promotion and distribution status quo challenged. I work for an outfit who made their money in traditional print publishing.

I believe the point is that artists have been making (music|sculpture|paintings|dances) for thousands of years. The great majority who've made money have done so only because of industry changes within the last 100 years. Artists are u
