Wow, very cool! This is exactly what I needed right now. I had bad dreams about what would happen if my Google account disappeared all of the sudden, but didn't do anything about it yet. Now I will be able to sleep better!

I think the answer is simple: Revenue isn't the most important thing right now. There are many things that make a successful company and revenue is only one of them. Google makes enough money to pay their employees well, to make investments

Looks like every little 4 man team of engineers at Google is making their own April Fools joke. I like it :)

Well there's no denying iOS is the king of responsiveness in the mobile sector, but to be honest, I can't really say the same thing on OS X vs Windows 7. I use both on a daily basis and Win7 is definitely the most rock solid OS Microsoft ev

yes, the advantage is RIM's software establishes a private/public key encryption channel directly between your internal exchange servers and the BlackBerry devices, meaning nobody, be it the carrier or government can eavesdrop on the transf

The thing that bothers me the most is that Sonys decisions often reflect what's good for them and not what's good for their customers. All piracy aside, custom firmware made the original PSP a much better device for the user in general. You

well it's kind of an official feature on Nexus phones, there's a script to unlock it on the phone, you just gotta execute it. So what more exactly do you want? Besides that I don't even know why a normal user would want root access, even I

Hm you don't play much games, do you? A real time strategy game like Starcraft would be pretty much unplayable with a smartphone. Look at any list of best-selling video games. None of these titles would be better with a smartphone controlle

Oh look he even has a animated model of this thing in Maya ;) He conveniently shows it of while "explaing" his wings. Here @20sec : http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=T... !

Well I hope he doesn't use any Apple products then. That would be pretty hypocritical.

Yeah, I agree IE box model makes more sense. Padding is basically useless if it adds to width, most of the time you end up creating inner divs with margins to simulate padding. Didn't know you can toggle the behavior in Moz/WebKit, good to

So is the start menu gone completely? With Windows7 it was actually on the way to become something like Spotlight (just not as good yet). I can't believe they'd patch that out, instead of improving on it, Windows needs something like Spotli

Got a Razer Deathadder, they come with their own OSX drivers that seem to circumvent the issue. Also sad to see so many Magic Mouse users here ;) I know everybody has their own preferences, but that is not a good mouse.

I think it's time to switch back to Firefox, Chrome is freezing a lot for me lately (Aw, Snap!). The only thing I miss is the universal search/URL/autocomplete bar, is there an extension for this?

I'm confused, doesn't it already have auto-complete? Mine's been doing that for a while now. What's new about this?

Yeah at first, but once you get used to the syntax and long method names, it's your standard static OOP language. Has some cool feature actually, like Blocks etc. Like it more then Java now. Also what's really cool is, that you can seamless

OSX is like a gateway drug for Linux. I used Windows for years, then had to work with OSX for iOS development. Didn't know a thing about it, hated it (at first). Time passed and now I ssh into vps to set up nodejs. Feels great =)

Agree with everything, some additional ones: - Take walks! - Say NO to MMOs - If you smoke, never get into the habit of smoking at your desk.

true, although the point I was making is that sooner or later fields like agriculture, energy, manufacturing, transportation, logistics and others will be completely automated and just require coders to operate. That leaves some other fie

Of course! It's gonna be THE profession. I imaging in the future more and more things will be doable in 'software'. For example, manufacturing factories will be so automated and full of robots, that you can actually start building assembly

gah, please keep your dumb satirical remark for yourself. You obvisouly don't even have an interst in games, because if you actually played them, you would notice, that almost half of the iOS games emulate gamepad controls on the touch scre

I hope with "Mobile/Web Engineers" they don't actually mean native iOS / Android development, because it would be a shame to see them lower than everybody else.
