The important part is weeding out the good from the bad. If you're good at that, then using google to check for help/info about your current problem can provide you with new approaches, ideas, or maybe even new features in the lan

One option that's missing is self-monitoring. I don't run any antivirus software on my PC, but I do keep a very close eye on my running processes and network traffic. The same goes for applications/code downloaded from the in

My wife had a problem with a girl creating a facebook account using a similar email to hers that somehow got her gmail account connected to that facebook account. There was some account sharing going on, as the girl used that email address

Here's a beta gameplay video by PyrionFlax (NSFW language!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqLFFEX4Obg It feels a bit like a social experiment, as the gamer tries to advance through the "levels" to make enough money to support his family

It appears to be more of a cultural thing, as I've noticed that here in North America times appear to be treated relative, whereas in Europe it was treated like a deadline in most cases. If you're late, whatever was scheduled to happen that

I'm not sure how that "wealthy families" part fits in with this? Maybe this depends on the country, but one example that relates to my original comment was a school which specialized in university students who are about to or just finished

The biggest issue with Siri was the same as with the current Maps blunder, where it works well for US users, but causes issues for everyone else. There are some videos of non-native English speakers trying to use Siri on their new 4s (befor

I had to install 4 different programs, which are constantly running in the background, just to be able to use online banking for my Korean account. From a users perspective this is really bad, since you have no idea if the installed program

One interesting response in the reddit thread about this was someone saying "...now you can fund the shit that nobody still wants to play?", followed by "20.000 is nothing", when another poster pointed out that over 20.000 people were alrea

I'm using a mid-2010 MBP 13", which was meant for iOS development only but just after a few weeks of using it I switched over to it as my main development machine. I have modified it to 8GB RAM and removed the DVD ROM to make space for a SS

My first website was a combo package from them, which included a domain name. When I had my own server and tried to transfer the domain there was no way for me to get them to release the domain name. If I cancel my hosting account, then I

That line irked me too. I don't believe anyone would take offence about the underlying technology, if the product is of excellent quality. The OP might want to add some more explanation to that point, as it seems more like the usual php bas

Reminds me of a request I got from a webdesigner once, who needed a php backend developer for her projects. Turns out that her work was to design the site in photoshop and then it would have been my turn to put this into HTML & CSS. I s
