Here is my issue with Things Sync: Ever since they released their iPhone app customers have been asking them for sync. This being a productivity app sync is very important. Things for the longest time has had WiFi sync. It is a pain for two

Some how this all sounds like they are gearing up to develop a Things specific sync service. Last thing I want is another service I have to pay to sync my data. Already paying for Dropbox and MobileMe.

Recently I wrote "...user data is scattered among many web properties..." In essence it is "data scatter" Decentralization, in my mind, implies some sort of planning on where to put data (say to prevent failure or enhance efficiency...) but

Not necessarily all evil. Only text-book implementations require that one allocate individual nodes. Most implementations I have seen in Linux and FreeBSD can pool allocate the nodes. One can also pull off neat tricks to append link chains

People who can authoritatively talk about such attacks can't or don't talk. So, information out there is mostly anecdotal at best or just plain speculation. These cables add to that stack of information but from a much higher level of invol

Another way is probably to use a Linux Kernel-like list: http://isis.poly.edu/kulesh/stuff/src/klist/

Probably a dumb question: Are the reviews private (or only shared with friends) or public like other sites?

Can we turn down this 'author-is-using-a-cheap-trick-to-attract-audience' volume around here. I don't think Bruce Eckel needs to attract audience so badly that he will do it purposefully. Granted, title is not reflective of the content but

Looks like there needs to be some data engineering to be done to back memory up with disk storage. I think you guys, by now, have enough information about users and checkins to create algorithms that can determine "hot" checkins vs. "cold"
