.org is not controlled by Verisign so it's harder for them to take it down. Also they can't control the content, just the domain.

Recently I learned that DDG donates a portion of profits to Trisquel http://trisquel.info/ (bottom of page) and probably other projects. That's pretty cool.

Yes, I've heard about the API issue. I don't really care anymore. It's wasting Twitter's money to give free access to every dev, and yet they do anyway. If they want to set limits that's their issue. The only real d

Maybe this will get buried, but as a huge fan of Twitter and the team I can't help but think they can try making more cool stuff? This huge benevolent profitable business with amazing developers has a shot at making more than a web a

The (culture?) shift at Apple is very apparent. They no longer make premium prices that people would say is a ripoff (non-retina Macbooks). They make premium products that people would say are very, very much worth the money (retina Macbook

The main one is Gutenberg, but Beeline users can just install it and make it work on the gutenberg site. You could still contact them to get them to add it as a feature.

I don't think those two facts are particularly related. I'm a hardcore gamer but I wouldn't buy a console if it didn't have interesting entertainment features (and great game line-up) or I'd just stick to PC. The gr

I'd argue that the more-hardcore gaming market isn't shrinking.

Is it just me or is Medium becoming self-aware? Many of the posts bash the culture Medium is a part of.

Furthermore, GP assumes that having a famous famous or well-loved organization is the only measure of a good leader. I don't think I agree. There are some great leaders/tech minds that run great businesses that people don't k

I think some people find the issue exists on both OSes. In fact The Verge did a report on this and found that going to classic mode on Windows removes all the unnecessary animations the best (paraphrased).

Fun fact: the GNU/Linux Dropbox client is licensed under the GPL. I don't know if the article was referring to it though.

I already know about its centralization and being in the US. So what? I don't put sensitive information into Twitter like I do in Google services. Do you expect your blogging service to be encrypted and private too? I guess the private

I wonder when people will realize that Twitter is not the enemy. I do believe in decentralized social networking, but some software package you throw on your web server doesn't seem like the solution. We need a new Internet protocol. E

>Win8 gets way more trash than deserved I just switched to Windows 8 and actually like Microsoft a bit. The hate that 8 got was somewhat warranted. There are very strange design decisions in 8. The idea that an installed program and an a

If I was part of a company that bounced back and adapted over so many years, I'd be proud of it. Also, I'm pretty sure you do hear companies boasting their age. IBM (though not a startup or anything) does this. A lot of <20 yea

Finally a Dropbox text editor that is somewhat different from the others? Would love something like this on Android (it probably exists already).

Android is catching up really fast. The things you can do with it and some of the design choices can be quite clever. For example, the new Gmail app has pull-to-refresh, but they didn't want to look like a direct rip of lorenb/Twi

I think the main problem for this decade is that HTML/HTTP aren't realtime (if I worded that correctly) like IRC or something.

This is exactly it for me as well. I'd use Jekyll/Pelican again if comments were somehow built-in. Disqus is still a good service for those who need it.
