The only thing which put me off getting a MacBook Pro last time I was shopping for laptops was the lack of built in 3G. So instead I got a Dell Studio XPS laptop, with a Core i5 CPU, 256GB SSD, builtin 3G, full-HD display. For $1000 less t

To be fair Exchange Web Services is a prime example (IMO) of how not to do SOAP. It's the philosophy of SOAP being "message-passing" taken to the extreme. You have the SOAP messages which envelopes (sigh) yet another message-level architect

I know 3.0 was supposed to be the first version truly tailored/prepared for tablets, but from this I can't really see many new features which would be useful on smaller devices like phones. Hopefully there are some improvements down in the

It's this lack of discoverability that kills SOAP I thought it was discoverability which was SOAP's strong point, while ad-hoc solutions like REST which have the bonus of being much more lightweight/terse, lacks this feature. As for non-s

By far my favourite are websites which detects you are on a mobile device and then (automatically, no questions asked, no override available) "redirects" you to what is supposedly the same content on their mobile site. And then the mobile s

What if it takes off just because it's well-designed and customer focused, like most things Apple? I've had both an iPod and an iPhone. I'm not scoffing at Apple's ability to deliver. However a very real thing is some people's attitude to

I remember this once being attempted 15 years ago or more in Norway, except with Nokia phones and the biggest (former state-owned) telco. Ignoring for the moment the obvious vendor lockin, it was a disaster anyway. It suffered the same prob

Yes you can, and it may not be a total disaster if 1. Have actual IPv6 connectivity. Chances are you don't. Teredo might save you in a transition period, but it depends on IPv4 so wont work with your experiment here. 2. You use a very narro

A friend of mine is the owner of a hosting-company and the last few years he has seen a rise in demand for good Windows-based hosting-solutions. As a consequence of this, he has reworked his provisioning systems both for shared hosts and VP

Thanks for the reply. That sounds great and should definitely address one of my two major problems with git on Windows. The second one (with \'s vs /'s in paths) can iirc be fixed with some simple bash aliases for the git-console, so it sho

Since you're obviously happy with the setup, I'm curious about what specific setup you used for git in Windows. Last time I tried it, it was (literally) a cluster-fuck which completely set me off git. Do you just use cygwin'd git wrappers?

Yes and no. what that means is that you don't have SMS, you have email only and that is indeed packet-data. SMS is basically a hack which lets us transmit non-control data over the GSM control-channel, normally used top setup calls, channel

In that case I should probably mention the 16mb (yup megabytes) upgrade you could get for the Commodore 64, up from 64kb. It was a silly thing and needless to say, stupidly expensive.

by trezor 16y ago
I actually think hardware stability, predictability and closeness is central for this to work. Once a platform is new, nobody really knows what it can do and how it can best be exploited. Like on the Commodre 64, you had a limit of 8 hardwa

To be fair you do see the same phenomenon on game-consoles. The hardware stays the same, but newer games are always pushing the limits just a little bit further.

Those did indeed exist. My first computer actually only had 16kb of RAM, which was "plenty" given the typical simplicity of applications back then.

Seconding this. I'm running 2.2 and it seems any application (for instance Google reader) coming across a animated GIF, gets just that: An animated GIF.

Indeed. I wish, just like for Firefox, there was an extension which could tell me what protocol I am using. As far as I know, Firefox does not discriminate nor positively favor neither IPv6 or IPv4. So far, this is what has given me the bes

Google is selective about exposing IPv6 DNS entries. Your ISP has to be in the Google IPv6 program which means that Google trusts your ISP to provide quality IPv6 connectivity. Basically, Google don't want half-assed IPv6 networking setups

Oh I do remember, and I was notorious for ASSIGNing things to my RAM: drive for performance-reasons once I got a 10MB memory upgrade to my Amiga 1200. I just thought it might be slightly out of scope for the discussion at large, so I decide

I started out with an Amiga before moving to the PC. The Amiga (while still dealing with device-roots) at least had a more flexible system. fd0: was floppy 1. If you had an additional drive, that would be fd1: etc. The best part was that yo

Dragging a file into the browser window (Chrome 8, Win 7) I get a popup saying "Invalid extension: <full filename>". I guess it can use some more work.

I like to think that I know C# pretty well, but I must admit I haven't had that much time to fool around with .NET 4 as I like. I knew about dynamic types and ExpandoObject, but I didn't know you could operate on the ExpandoObject as a Dict

I must admit I'm not really surprised to see Gruber suddenly claim non-uniform application design is a good thing when everyone starts critizing Apple for 1. inconsistent UIs and 2. bad design. Also note how he completely focuses on the inc

Ok. So I didn't see that coming. That is actually rather impressive. My only "complaint" here would be that Nvidia's Tegra system, although noticably smaller than the basic Intel-setup, seemed very much to be at the same scale, i.e. big. At

Worst case scenario getting Windows 7 on a USB-stick is dead easy as well. Much simpler than most Linux-distros.

So basically you can hang (almost) any website written in PHP which expose primary keys as GET parameters? Does this just crash the local process for that request or will it also cause problems for other requests? Anyone able to test this
