Another method of productizing the technology could be an automatic group generator. I'd pay 5$ to have all my friends merged into mutual groups. I have 500 friends and there's no way I'm going to create groups for all of them. But havi

How'd you register the .ng domain? Is it possible to get a straight .ng domain with out the '.com'? All the sites that offer .ng seem very sketchy and I'm skeptical of trying.

There's an interesting Clang autocomplete mode. It is almost great, but falls short a bit for obj-c. If you deal with C/C++ all day, you should definitely check it out: https://github.com/brianjcj/auto-complete-clang

Wow, I never had any post summarize my growth as an engineer so well. Except for the writing and community bit, that's come a bit late. I remember the day I realized that I could have windows and play heretic all day, or install linux and

This seems like such a bad UI Choice by Apple. 1 finger scroll. 2 fingers, in-app action(forward/back), 3 fingers inter-app action, 4 fingers desktop action. I think differently if I'm looking at a page vs, navigating, and I continue to f

Here's another visualization focusing on the last 200 years. Doesn't focus on population growth as much as life expectancy, but a far cooler visualization in my book! Starts about 30 seconds in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbkSRLYSojo

Anyone remember the original freshmeat logo? For the life of me I couldn't find it, but it was basically a softcore-skin as the background for the freshmeat text. I looked at the internet archive, and the older sites had a broken link fo

There are windows on macs, but it appears Macs are going away from them with the full screen apps. Look at all of Apple's apps - they're all going single window. Document based apps can still have multiple windows, but everything is sel
