To be honest, I don't understand why manufacturers are still optimizing CPU performance instead of battery life. Who really needs a 4 or even 8-core mobile device? Most people I know with a smartphone, barely make it through the day an

I really don't see the need to stereotype, and even less to call names. Personally, I have worked as a software developer, and I do also have an MBA, and I strongly believe that my broad/diverse education allows me to better inter

I believe that is no longer the case, at least in Spain. Certain operators offer a 2nd SIM card (with the same number) for a few extra euros a month. In that case though, you can only speak through one of the phones at a time; however, both

I don't know about Australia, but Netherlands is basically a flat country where its tallest mountain (hill?) is 320 meters above sea level. Therefore, cycling is particularly easy.

In my opinion the misunderstanding arises due to the lack of understanding of what log n means, and not so much O notation. Intuitively, logarithms are much easier to understand in the context of exponentials. For example, if there is "some

I originally come from Spain, where the weather is nicer than in the Netherlands, and there certainly are homeless people living and sleeping in the streets, or in cold occasions during winter, they can also be seen under the roof provided

It is absurd because if BT or AT&T wanted to upgrade certain areas to the new network to improve service to their consumers and gain additional profits out of it, they wouldn't choose cities where there already is a competitor with an e

By doing right-click and "Open link in new tab", there's no actual onclick event, as what you're actually doing is opening the original link in a new tab. Therefore, his href replacing code wouldn't get executed.

According to Kim, over a 100,000 users registered in under an hour ( https://twitter.com/KimDotcom/status/292702999078387712 ). Pretty impressive, and it explains the slow responsiveness of the site.

I wouldn't agree. Obviously, there needs to be a spread, but receiving a 1.23 rate when it should be around 1.29 is getting screwed. That's higher than 5% when there is no reason for it to be. Banks can set a fixed daily rate or a yearly on

Two-factor authentication is as secure as you make it. If you value security more than convenience don't use application specific passwords. Google certainly allows for that by only consuming their services through a secure web interface. I

Probably, they will do what they are currently doing but in a different way. For example, offering tiers based on data usage: under 100MB plan (aka non-tethering) for $n; over 100MB plan (aka tethering) for $5n.

You have a good point. However, knowing that electronic devices cannot be used, many fliers (including myself) bring their own alternative such as magazines, books, etc. I have never seen a stewardess calling somebody's attention for readin
