I think he's betting on being able to implement better than apple. He states: My biggest challenge isn’t winning over converts from my competitors: it’s explaining what Instapaper does and convincing people that they actually need it. So

I'm really liking this thread. Everytime someone tries to dismiss a major or course as being somehow inferior, another person chimes in with a view point that blows said dismissal out of the water. I'm sure there are CS majors now in the wo

That's a little harsh. If he understands how PKI works. If he understands that people share a public key which is in turn paired with a private key. And if he understands that said private key is the only key capable of decrypting message

ifconfig is deprecated, so probably a good idea to get out of that habit. Particularly if you are using it in scripts. 'ip addr' should give you all the information that 'ifconfig' does. You can also make the output a little less chatty by

He seems to be saying that Sun's stance will be let the Open JDK develop, and roll that into the official package. I thought this would be good news. Sun has a shaky future and a lot of people use Java. The more control of it the community

Evernote works great. It syncs to a web client which then syncs to native clients which are available on Mac, iPhone, and Windows. Not as fast as Simplenote appears to be, but excellent nonetheless. Has saved me in a datacenter without my

This will probably be a good thing for the app in the long run. - Eventually it will get into the app store - All the publicity, fovorable reviews, and outrage over it will probably spur quite a few purchases / downloads. Maybe enough to ma
