I recently left a job that initially gave me a iPhone 3G ~3 years ago. When I upgraded to a 4S I just transferred the settings over. When I left I decided to delete my email account because why would I need it anymore. So I remove the accou

Gruber essentially tiptoes around the main problem. The iOS 6 map app was released before it was polished up to what people expect from Apple. "Oh Apple had to release it now or else Apple would have to release in a non major release!" Are

So the blame for the product now solely resides with Apple and their decision to release a product prematurely.

I was going to say, "it's in the article" then I went back and realized it's not in the post (I think it was in previous posts about it). Kinda surprised since they could have done a lot of PR with, "THIS GUY MADE 1500!"

I don't think this is the case necessarily. People have been asking for all-22 footage for a long time and this is the answer they've always given before this season. The fact that they continue to parrot this line makes me believe that's h

My point isn't that he isn't an expert on the NFL. But I would say he does not know much if he thinks giving people more information will make people jump to conclusions they've already made beforehand. Giving people this information is not

I think this is different because it was pretty difficult to reproduce that antennae problem if you never put your hand in that spot. This Maps app is the only Maps app now and it's missing a lot of features. Steve wouldn't have let this ha

If you use Google's transit maps at all you'd know how it's pretty much a step below the original native Maps app. The only thing going for the mobile web version is bike routes otherwise it's still a below par experience compared to Maps.

What a disaster for Apple. But of course Apple can't admit fault and the people who are screwed are the users. Steve would have never let this application go through.

I meant if you want to "control" an article and force other editors to have to fight you to get something put on Wikipedia. You just throw at them a whole bunch of WP (Wikipedia Policies), cite WP:BIO for controversial facts about public fi

If you want to manipulate articles, you definitely need a lot of knowledge about Wikipedia "rules" which you can cite to constantly revert edits based on some reason: (NPOV, as in maintaining a neutral point of view, WP:RUMOR, WP:BIO). It's

Seems like the guy who wrote this "article" is in Chicago viewing startups there and ran out of ideas to write about. Or as others have pointed out, people will click on links with their current city mentioned. I am sure it would have evoke

Could we (as in, everyone) please stop referring to something we find stupid or dumb in general as "retarded"? It's offensive. Sorry, this just bugged me.

Do you actually have a link to that? I don't recall reading that Facebook would close your account if you requested information about yourself. That seems really punitive.
