Eight tabs? I have well over 100 open at any time with Opera. This sort of browsing behavior chokes Firefox 2.x. I'd like to see whether Firefox 3 can handle it.

I'm always about keeping a variety around. For beers produced within my own country (USA), I like the products of Sam Adams (Boston Lager, Winter Lager, Summer Ale, and some of the other winter seasonals), Dogfish Head (Midas Touch, ##-min

The impression that I always got was that your best shot at using a domain to SEO ( shudders ) is to have a one or two word name that people would punch into a search engine as one or two words. thus the example given in the article (ten s

Fortunately we have the Paul Gnome method. 1. Make something users want 2. ?????? 3. Profit! The similarity between the product-now/revenue-later startup model and the underpants gnomes plan is disconcerting at first glance. The

I used a lot of LaTeX in XEmacs in grad school. Now I've really taken to LyX for shorter documents. This is really not the kind of thing you move into *Office to pretty up afterwards, though. Once you make your PS or PDF, that's supposed

There are lots of times that I wish that I could use the wildcard in Google inside word tokens instead of just between words in a multiword string, i.e. search on googl* to get googlefight and googling as well as the expected. It could be

If we could foster that sort of thing in American schools, it would scarcely matter whether India and China better prepared their students for engineering (referencing another article that was on the front page the same time as this one)

Ah, then the key to acceptance is to name your company "General" something. It does bring up a key point, though. The contacts that you make there are going to be generally government affiliated, which is fine if that's the kind of interes

GPP's phrasing seems to be non-mutex such that it explicitly does not say that, e.g. "smart developers do not create" Maybe a more encompassing way of stating the saw would be "while a good developer can create what is required, a smart d

For the purpose of commentary, let's assume that you're actually creating a product for the public. 1.0 means that this is the first point at which you're confident that the product reflects your vision for a first release. It is feature
