Networking with pulseaudio is a pretty useful feature indeed. I've unfortunately never managed to make it work correctly with flash vids (e.g: youtube). Any success story would be greatly appreciated!

Sure yeah, Solaris is full of great technologies, it is undeniable, and DTrace is an awesome and unique one. Now there's one thing those guys can learn from Linux: modesty.

Being from Europe, I can only confirm that people in the Bay Area are in fact, incredibly passive-aggressive. The first few years I must admit that I felt like living on Mars. Even-though I'm coming from a "western" country w

Nice move indeed! Let's just hope that there will always be viable alternatives, just in case the systemd project ends up like pulseaudio.

That's pretty funny! Reminds me when I worked for Yahoo couple of years ago, I was not even working for the search team, but one day I got busted by a product manager of that team who saw me googling. That chick sermonized me and said

Interesting, not sure the battery life of this watch will sound appealing to the masses. As a side note, this presentation is one of the most amazing displays of poor taste I have ever seen. You have to give them kudos for improving on the

While I love typematrix keyboards, and I also have to say that their tech support is really outstanding, the build quality is pretty weak and my experience with those keyboards is that they are not very robust. Still, the typing experienc

Is this me or Facebook tends to self-celebrate itself in most of its tech blog posts? I remember them posting a similar piece a few years back on their memcached scaling hacks - the article had a very similar tone, it was equally modest (e.

I'm not too surprised by the move, I worked 6 years at yahoo and have always been amazed at how naive the company was with WFH. It may seem hilarious, but I strongly believe the company actually thought those employees would a) work and b)
