Did you have any issues with Wifi/Display Brightness/Keybindings when setting up your chromebook? I haven't seen many posts by CB3-131 users and I've been having some issues (posted about it here: https://www.

You know we've all seen helper.php files that are so monolithic Yes. This has nothing to do with flat functions vs. classes. I've seen 'helper' classes get shitted up just as much as function files. My point is that it doesn't matter. Man

The point still stands, though, that you shouldn't put array_select_keys into a php file filled with other helper functions. It doesn't stand. There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a file with simple helper functions. ArrayHelp

array_intersect_key does not do the same as array_select_keys. You can emulate it using array_intersect_key, but either in a more confusing or slow way. $array = ['a' => 1, 'b' => 2, 'c' => 3, 'd' => 4]; array_select_

Maybe if it's used solely for debugging, but there are cases where simple functions aren't easy to place. Consider implementing the array_column function for pre-5.4 PHP. Or things like method pull, index grouping, or array_select_keys func

@ the mobile data thing : data caps. I pay for 2 GB of data usage a month. I don't see anything wrong with my friend tossing me $15 and using 1 GB. If 50 people want to split it, I don't see a problem with it (though they probably will).

Boy, do I feel you there. I've been working with Titanium since last March and I've yet to develop some semblance of a cross-platform application. It's a bloody mess in there.

I hate articles like this. Not because they don't highlight what a steaming pile the actual fitness and training industry is, but because they're way too slow. Proper training articles have existed for a long time, in easily reachable spots

This is pretty freaking awesome. Having access to an easy patent search is huge for would-be inventors and probably quite a bit of startups. Removing the searching fees and making the data public is a great step towards fixing that fairly b

Definitely concurring on NPR; that broadcast is quick, informative, and gives you a pretty good view of what the average persons sees when they watch the news.

Pretty awesome! Not something I'd be using in CSS, but certainly cool for an editor. Time to see how it stacks up against some other Monos for code readability...

Pretty awesome - though I suspect that there are going to be plenty of security issues stemming from this. The current facebook login button is already used on plenty of malicious sites.

Something that is tied to the "Where are the customers?" point - conducting mini-'interviews'. Sometimes direct competitors are tough to come up with, but asking people if they would use your product (or at least think about it) would make

Talk to your partner and ask him what he coded it in, then start learning it. Also have a talk with him about management issues. It sounds like it's your project but it's not going according to an agreed-upon plan. Having a serious chat wit

F# is going to be tough, but take a look at the Netbeans / Eclipse IDEs. A bit easier to set up, especially if you're migrating from Windows to a graphical linux system like Ubuntu. Vim and Emacs are great, but I would seriously consider a

I totally understand this, and it's why I switched to a netbook. But looking back, I realize that all these are really becoming non-issues. Two years ago, maybe - back when netbooks had (on average) 8-9" screens and were significantly light

Definitely true - I do want to say, however, that newer netbooks will be able to handle all but the largest projects in Eclipse/Netbeans with ease, so this part is less of a consideration. Your main bottleneck will really be memory, which s

Agreed 100% here. After a long time of using a Netbook for computing, I'm realizing soo much how the 'battery life and portability' is really not an issue. Every year, more and more laptops come out that are lighter, faster, and just as che

I'll echo most everyone else - a netbook, for development, is not an ideal choice. However, there are advantages - very portable, ridiculous battery life. My main choice (and the one I ended up buying) was the Asus 1005PR : http://commer

Sounds very cool - I wouldn't use this at the moment, but I could definitely see having some projects that require this type of monitoring. $10 is definitely inconsequential, but guaranteed monitoring is very useful.

I think the biggest problem with the current version of Unity is the lack of customization. 10.10 Unity does not allow the removal or movement of any of the desktop elements - you cannot hide the topbar or the sidebar, both of which take up

That's a lot of good points. But why not just auto-hide the topbar? Full functionality + Full space saving.
