This came up in a meeting the other day where I asked someone to define technical debt. I instantly remembered the first company I worked for calling it 'being hit by the baby bus'. They were combining the concept of the 'bus

At my first job, 6 of us (all programmers) sat around a large conference table. If I had a question about the code, I peaked over my laptop's screen, someone else noticed and asked "What's up?" It was great for that quic

This is beautiful. I feel like it describes past, present, and future me and gives me hope and some nice guidelines.

Is it? I'd rather they split this into 2 plans and let me have just the fast shipping for $79 (or less) and people who want streaming can pay $99. Netflix still has the better offering IMO. Not only content, but the video interface is

For MIPS (recommended for starting out), check out my post. It walks you through creating the initial program in C all the way through finding its vulnerability and exploiting it. The buffer overflow building is done in Python through Bowca

I'm 27 and killed my LinkedIn account because 1) I just don't find them to be a company that is concerned with user privacy and 2) I have not once seen a benefit to being on it. I think it probably depends on your industry. I&#x27

I think the android project is starting to move toward optimizing for lower performing devices in an effort to get the OS in more hands. If that's the case, it may make a usable $38 tablet more feasible.

Maybe Apple will have one for their maps soon? Google isn't crapping on anyone. This is brand new and they're not going to be able to support everyone, especially those in an ecosystem they don't control, right off the bat.

I would love that for Android. I miss the Cyanogenmod ROMs for Gingerbread where you could toggle which requested permissions YOU allowed an app to have. Also, I've been saying it for a long time, but icons colored according to their s

Both my parents were on virgin mobile and my mom couldn't stand it. Dropped calls, text messages that were never received, and there were a lot of dead zones. I switched my plan on t-mobile to a family plan and brought them on. They&#x

Living in the U.S. and having gone through the effort of attempting to create a startup, programs, money, mentorships, etc. are out there, but you have to have a real drive and be able to brush off rejection. I don't think the process

As someone who really enjoys the history of computing, this is awesome! I don't think I've ever had a chance to play with Win 1 and probably wouldn't have gone through the trouble of getting it running myself. This and others

LinkedIn just seems overwhelmingly sleezy to me. How do they keep getting away with this stuff?

I'm not judging one way or another, but is privacy not something the Swedish people are interested in?

Back in 2008 my friend and I were going to enter an instructables.com contest with a 3D printer made from an all-in-one. It was going to be the Z-corp (powder) style. Total feasible, but we ran out of time and was a lot more focused on his

I was going to disagree due to the Tmobile-MetroPCS merger, but it looks like Tmobile was just looking to pick up the spectrum and are phasing out CDMA within it. http://bgr.com/2013/06/17/t-mobile-metropcs-me

A failure of Blackberry to have a respectable market share does not mean the company isn't innovative. I think any company with its back against the wall is probably attempting to be innovative at every turn.

At $550 out of contract, the 5c is not a serious downmarket move. It may be the illusion of one, though. I paid roughly that for my Nexus One in 2010 and paid $350 for my Nexus 4 almost a year ago. I'm pretty diehard Android fan, but I

Not at all similar to that. Ignoring the fact that the characteristics of residences and a very high traffic website with an enormous user-base are vastly different, your argument relies on the discoverer of the vulnerability choosing one o

I'm not super familiar with this case or the ATT vs weev one, but I thought I read that the prosecution in the weev trial made the argument that accessing information in the open, like that of server logs is hacking? If that precedent
