This is one of my biggest fears of cloud computing. With abandonware, you can still run it locally, years after the death of the company that produced it. Not so with a thin client or SaaS. EDIT: This isn't about exporting data, I actually

If they do, the source of the cells aren't really important.

I had no clue, and that sounds really interesting; a write-up would be a very nice thing! Wasn't there an article on here a little while ago about how most jobs seem easy to the worker because the "common knowledge" is fairly trained in?

It is "spam," but much in the way that O'Reilly's book deal was spam, or the way that the 23andme 100 buck deal was spam. I'm upvoting this, as several of the apps were on my "nice to have" list, but not essential. Occasionally a really goo

A tissue, probably. Small cellular packets would, if compromised, burst open and then be exposed to the immune system.

A little context may be required. I'm assuming that a bigger number means that it's higher linked? More important?

Why would you use old types for a complete reorganization? Steadfastly insisting complexity is a quick way to obscure the issue.

Right, one cross-platform developer (Tweetdeck, maybe) was talking about his beta and it was a hundred on iOS, and around 20k on Android.

Do the UDID limitations still exist? I'd say the Enterprise license would be a workaround, but pretty sure that Apple would revoke it as an abuse of terms.

I really think the only solution to this is to classify the internet as a utility, a big dumb pipe. Users need to buy their access and bandwidth, services need to buy access and bandwidth. Simple. The regulation of utilities is to prevent t

No, I believe it was because he tried to publish his dataset. As Loic said, "Data out only for Facebook." The worst part of the whole debacle was that Facebook's robots.txt file explicitly allowed the crawling of this data.

The "exciting spaces" really is one of the most important issues. Everyone who's ever told me to work in C# or Java is just in it for the money, and willing to goldrush to crappy enterprise-ware. Rather, I like Cocoa as it's the best way to

That's confirmation bias, you never hear from the people who try and fail. They go away to the gutter, a shitty sales job; silence. I'm glad it worked out for you, but it's rarely ever "just worked out" for me. So, be happy, because you're

While you're right about Madison's culture, I couldn't find crap for work there. MPLS has been much, much better to me. The tech community there is much too insular: web jobs are nonexistent and everything else is pretty much biotech or thr

Ideas for a startup are just ideas. Music and books, regardless of form, are implementations and execution. I say that the actual execution of the idea is what's important. Code piracy's probably a better comparison. That said, as an artist

Agreed. It’s one of the simplest guides to adding subtle texture to widgets out there, with the added bonus of being concise.

I’m guessing they used it on a large element. Something like this is definitely meant for a sub-300px element, where the eye would get tricked into thinking there was a page curl.

Generally anyone who likes working there is fairly senior management. As in, they’re in the middle two tiers between CEO and grunt. With all the OSS projects going on, I can’t believe anyone serious about development wouldn’t just use that

Well, that’s the art world for you. Ideas and execution are equally intertwined, executing good ideas means you’re not just some bum. But, an edition is especially infuriating for anyone who knows what github is. Since artist originality is

It’s still a niche market. There’s been some success for Algorithmic art, but it’s not as if Jared Tarbell will be in MoMA tomorrow. It still needs to prove itself. The best place if you want to sell out and make money would be to do someth

"Have you no shame?" I bet you do, and everyone else here too. The problem is that American executives don't. Look at the pay gap between American and European or Japanese executives: 2x European executives, 4x for the Japanese and Kore

It's possible that "young" is a euphemism for a lifestyle that's either party-centric or bohemian. However, since I've worked with shops that actually are bohemian, age really doesn't matter. 45-year old hippies, dads that occasionally wi
