The bandwidth at which they produced new flash games was amazing. They were pretty detailed too. I can't think of any html5 gaming community website that even comes remotely close to them. One of my favorite events with Neopets was p

This might sound dumb but.. with these Meltdown + Spectre bugs would an attacker be able to penetrate to gain full access only if a user downloads a native app or would it be possible through the browser/js?

It's that simple, huh? Why not save everyone the trouble and replace GUI's with terminals while we are at it.

I've probably spent a couple of hours last month trying to resolve sound driver related issues where my headphone jack stopped working on Ubuntu 16.04. Also, my dual monitor set-up randomly stopped working.. this was during a deadline

I wonder how much it would cost to cover the entire US w/ solar-powered wifi extenders to create said mesh-network. Is there an equivalent for bluetooth?

Because it's valid snark and at this point an on-going joke. Fragmentation seems to be very much part of the Google culture.

Personally, I look forward to the stackoverflow questions tagging Android Go specific problems and being redirected to Golang issues.

This really puts into perspective of what kind of moat facebook has and just how much overlap there is with companies like Disqus. Personally, I like Disqus because you aren't required to log in to one specific social media account and

How many more people now know about this vulnerability cause of this knuckle-head tweeting it? At least 100k impressions? Now think of how many more "bad guys" have access to this hack that are going to abuse it.

Yep.. I've lived on both coasts as well as Chicago and it's much easier from my personal experience to run into people making idiotic racist remarks in the midwest. Now granted, there are racist people everywhere but the frequenc

|Myth 5: It’s important to choose a major early. I mean, I think it's good that Georgia / Arizona State have created "meta-majors" to give students more exposition on specific majors.. but I wish high-schools would provi

I never hand out assignments like this (or have in-person interviews w/ a similar task while having the internet at their disposal too) unless the person's already sent in their CV/Resume, had a phone-screen and they seem lik

Eh I haven't really tried in about 5~ years. I wanted to focus on more high quality content. It definitely died down near the tail-end of me experimenting with low-quality high-volume apps.

I have no idea how half my apps in 2010 got approved. it was really nice to see an app that i built in 1 week, bring in $1-3~ a day for a solid year. Then I spammed the crap out of that formula.

Someone should build the anti-linkedin. You know where the co-founders of this company would be added to that list.. and populates any relevant articles on why they're not good people to work with.

I'm not saying we ban anything and acknowledge that it's an insanely useful tool. It's absolutely necessary for companies to move fast with imperfect technologies to break new grounds then iterate. I just think it's a k

It's kind of insane to think a company can do this to an end-user without really having any repercussions / not having a direct phone-line to reach out to when this happens. I guess that's what happens when the product is fr

Oh man, AIM was great. They nailed their UI/UX at the time.. . everything just worked. There's so much overlap with contemporary companies and features they rolled-out. They had weather-bots, integration with a ton of 3rd party
