In Australia popsci.com redirects to popsci.com.au which does not have this article and shows a 404 page. Terrible programming from the coders of this site...

There are two points I wish to add to this discussion: 1. This is what works for one person. Every body is different and everyone's daily routines are different, so what works for one may not work for another. 2. This diet distinctly lack

I would suggest reading The Poliquin Principles ( http://www.amazon.com/Poliquin-Principles-Successful-Strengt... ) It provides a great insight into not only the difference between light and heavy weight but also reps and timing.

To my knowledge content which is Refused Classification (RC) is illegal to sell in Australia, however it is not illegal to own such material. Here is an interesting link regarding the black hole of material which is refused classification

http://unfuddle.com/ does this. Although I'm not sure how you would use it as a portfolio.

Yes, although there are few games that truly interest me these days. If you can be disciplined enough, gaming is a great way to spend some downtime. I mainly prefer to read about games/gaming these days as I find this almost as stimulating

Agreed, Delicious is great. Coupled with Delish (an OS X Delicious client) which displays a screenshot of each bookmark it's perfect. http://pinepointsoftware.com/delish/site/

I would definitely come along to a Sydney meet and I know a few other people who would be keen as well.

These sites always leave me with a bad taste in my mouth. The whole website 'flipping' business seems shady and geared towards maximising referrals or ad clicks through the use of splogs or other grey area techniques. My main disappointment

Yeah, that sounds good. I also have some basic Jquery written that deals with transforming the other form controls ie. radio, checkbox and select which I could probably turn into a plugin pretty easily. I'll shoot you an email over the next

Hahaha! How strange. I actually started working on this exact thing on the weekend ( http://github.com/hellotoby/Jquery-UI-Aristo-Theme )! This one looks great though, perhaps I should stop working on mine...

I would actually say that my #1 is when a client (non-programmer) will tell me how easy or difficult it will be to perform the task that they have just assigned me, in an attempt to have their fee waived/lowered. A typical conversation woul

I think this article misses the point a bit. Well, if having to use 6 nestled divs, large-number positive and negative margins and all kinds of bullshit like that isn’t an ugly hack, then I don’t know what is. Point 1: If your css contain

De-centralized social networks, where users are in control of their own data and are not required a visit any site in particular in order to access their network. Perhaps this will be in the form of a new network protocol, or more realistic

This statement may be true for your personal experience, but is in fact completely wrong. Emerging economies such as India have huge mobile Internet populations. In fact in India mobile Internet outnumbers PC based internet 3 to 1 with a mo

I actually think that web apps are almost perfectly suited to the iPad. With HTML5's local storage engine and users locked in to Safari* there should be some great innovation in this space. The line between native app and web app may even s

Great to see some Aussie meetups. Shame I'm in Sydney. Can anyone point me in the direction of Sydney based meets?

I've found the quickest way to speed up front-end development isn't necessarily with the slicing but more with having a robust library of my own code, and my own custom (pseudo) framework of html & css templates with which I begin every

Speaking of plaigarism, one of the apps from their '09 round looks suspiciosly like Songkick (a YC funded startup). See for yourself: Band in Town - http://www.bandsintown.com/home Songkick - http://www.songkick.com/

I'm not sure I really see the point of this. I mean the fade lasts for approx. 3 seconds, by which time I have hardly got my cursor to the search box let alone started typing. I agree they could reduce some of the other visual noise on the

Regarding the keypad issue: 9. It's almost impossible to get the right letter without being able to see the screen. Because you have to place your finger, listen for the right letter, then "lift it off" and place it again. Trying to slide
