The problem with with freedom to just post whatever by whoever, even if with credentials (perhaps more so) is that it can influence people in the wrong way, before it is criticized or debunked. Even so, there is ample evidence that plenty o

It’s got to be said. I felt unity’s business model was not very friendly to devs because you don’t get access to the source code. Unless you have a very expensive enterprise license. On the other hand, you can get access to unreal engines

I'm sorry, I don't see how anyone should be defending a lawyer's fees at that price. I look at law the way I look at open source software, (the law should be accessible to everyone, for free, if they know how to interpret it)

I can completely sympathise with your experience! I tried buying window 7 a while ago, as a digital download, from Canada. Guess what? The on-line store wouldn't sell to Canadians? We're on the same frigging continent, it's the internet! WT

In the article, near the end, they suggest that scientists are looking into alternatives that work like Ketamine, but so far none work as fast as K. "Efforts to develop drugs that replicate the effects of ketamine have produced some promisi

Are you serious? Or just insensitive? And how many nails are needed until you can safely say he's in his coffin ready to be buried? The issue that I have with the whole "don't even go to college/university, just start a startup" is that mos

Honestly though, maybe they just have a sense of humour... You know, if I received a survey like that I would definitely say that cloud computing has something to do with real clouds... I mean, who could resist?!

This is a perfect example of judging a book by the cover. So these folks look at the device and think that the hardware is what makes it. Problem is, either you realize that it's about the software and you care what iOS and the Apple ecosys

You are not quite right, for you, yes, your clicks may be real, because frankly you're small fry. You aren't managing a brand, there is no one's job hanging on the success of your campaign, no one needs to prove anything to you. So no bot i

I think that's why you need to put your money into open source software, not closed source software. Mozilla thunderbird could be the next Sparrow. If the people with the vision and with the proper backing are willing to put the effort into

Actually Apple doesn't hate brunettes, what they hate is the likeness to reality that your brunette colored people are, where if you color the hair like in your second example, the people become less realistic and more like abstract icons;

It seems the entire world is facing erosion of freedom and equality when it comes to accessing the net in an unobstructed and private manner. Great forces are at play, from politicians to capitalists, who own the wires and the antennae. The

If a cat is born and kept in a dark room during it's infancy, it will grow up to be blind... it's a metaphor, but you don't know what you don't know. So try it out, understand how it works and then you can make a proper appraisal. I guarant

And the lesson to be learned is that no matter how much static code analysis you do, nothing beats actually installing and using your application on different hardware to test out common real world use-case scenarios (think Rage + AMD/ATI)

I use HAML, I disagree with the main point of the article. Not only that, this is an opinion piece, offers no actual evidence of HAML being harder to parse/read (which I find ridiculous) than HTML. My opinion piece? I love HAML, would not g
