That still does not make his point completely invalid. "Coding" an App is not exactly rocket science, and as such explicitly linking your age/gender/orientation/other non-relevant feature with such a publication is

It also renders extremely bad on Opera/Win7x64 (Table Headers totally cut off) and is sluggish to navigate. Looking at the source I got why that is. Really good idea, but the presentation needs a do-over.

Well, it might have just been too deep a meaning for me - but even if the author is a "noted person", that would not automatically make anything he says/writes/publishes interesting or relevant - at least not to everyone. But seeing as bein

I don't think this should be on the front page of Hacker News. Then again, some other people thought otherwise.

I'm a bit amused that this is on the front page at the same time as Peter Norvigs "Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years" [ http://norvig.com/21-days.html ], with which I agree a whole lot more than the whole "Learn to code" movement.

A quick CTRL+F didn't find anything, so I might actually be the first to point out that "RAM memory" is a case of the RAS Syndrome :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAS_syndrome

A more technical argument: Implementing SSL with name-based VHosts is pretty much impossible, making the use of a dedicated IPv4 or (alternatively) one Port per VHost neccessary.

I usually listen to repetitive music (makes it easy to focus) or just play some TV shows I basically already know by heart (The Simpsons) in the background/on another monitor. This provides something to look at to distract me for a short ti

For systems consisting of "many" (5+) servers all providing more or less the same functionality, I usually just go with numbering them (s1 .. sN). For fewer and more specialised machines I'll think of something I like, my private machines a

In what sense is using absolute pixel values in your CSS better than using percentage of the parent element or em's? Last I checked, it was the other way round.

And don't forget that Opera also has an integrated IRC Client (admittedly, it's not the most pretty one out there, but hey, it's something). Plus, Dragonfly is nothing short of awesome.

Are you referring to Google's search interface or Google Apps, or any other Google service? I don't really have any complaints about the search, only thing sometimes bugging me is G+, especially the Android App. Some features just seem to b

Going through the filesystem and finding supposedly 'deleted' images and videos is in no way 'reverse engineering', as claimed by Mr. Spiegel (although Apple most likely would like you to believe that), it's just a normal Possibility one mu

Maybe not for large-scale web applications, but as webserver for a small blog or as a proxy server, or even just an Icecast Server for some friends, why not? The GPU would be mostly idle in these cases, as Servers don't usually run a Graphi

While Apple itself may not have changed radically (yet), it's perception by at least a part of it's customer base sure has by Steve Jobs' departure. Of course there's the thing that Apple seems to be all about lawsuits now, but that might v

You do realize that AntiSec stated they have access to about 12.000.000 UDIDs while leaking only 1.000.001? Maybe you should note that on your site, so even negative Results don't get too confident in their security
