This thread is a good example of why the policy requiring that a post title must match the article title doesn't always work. The title is okay within the context of the site it's on, but it's completely nonsensical on its ow

I'm on Windows 7 and use a Linux VM, where I actually do all the development. I love the command line, but still haven't found a Linux GUI I'm as comfortable in as Windows. Ubuntu was getting close there for a while, but then

The article says no studies show that flossing has any effect on tooth decay. But what about gingivitis? I know it's anecdotal, but since I started flossing regularly, I've noticed a drastic reduction in the amount of times I get inflamed g

The problem is that they control our culture. Boycotting some of these companies involves removing ourselves from many of the shared experiences which allow us to identify with the society and time that we live in. Until our artists figure

I love the would-be prankster on the Facebook page, trying to sneak an alert("Delete C:/?") onto the page.

I like to hear about how others are organizing stuff like this, because parts of my internet life are anything but organized. I've got the 'stuff to check later' links strewn over a dozen places, including a wiki, pastebin, tumblr and a bun

I bought my phone for the non-phone features, sure I'll admit it. In fact, I never had a use for a cellphone until you could browse the net on one. When that came along, I was all in. For me it's not a parlour trick, it's the primary reason

My #1 goal for 2011 is to put the house in order. I'm a good programmer. You'll just have to take my word for it, as I have no proof. I have no links to offer to which I can say "I did this". That's the problem. I've spent the last 10 years

I was told in school that SESE was the proper way to do things. I've met other people who agreed with that. You and I are of a differing opinion. Seems at least somewhat controversial to me.

I'm looking to move my bookmarks somewhere else. But frankly this has really soured me on trusting anyone with them. I want them to be 'in the cloud' so I can access them from everywhere, but also under my control. Does anyone know if there
