While I, too, found that part intriguing, the article mentions that the guy has been working as a prison guard since being rejected. Could be that he just wanted to make money by being a police officer and that department missed out on a gr

Apparently, they sell software that adds mouseover hotspots to photos (revealing an informative div, like Flickr, Facebook, or Bing). It costs $4000. :/

This thing has been around for ages (hence the Flash). NNDB is kind of a weird thing, though, being created by the Soylent Communications people. I wonder how many people are charged with keeping it updated and whether some wiki features ar

Why is it called Crondom? It sounds a bit like some form of 'protection' for cron.

I would love to see a hearkening back to those glory days of AMD product towering over Intel's Netburst, even if it's not in the "performance" segment of processors. This type of competition has only brought good things.

$2,000 seems low, really. The people who would be intrigued in this situation are doing it for the challenge and the glory. Two thousand would be an OK cherry on top, but if you really want to sweeten the deal, I bet with a Kickstarter you

It would be nice if the code could end up in github. Also, more importantly, I need to disable that cursor blinking (peripheral blinky things make me feel like dying).

While this is true, am I missing something? VICI.tv doesn't have a fullscreen button. At most it just takes up 100% of the width of the browser window. Unrelatedly, I am really enjoying this, but also am wondering if it was a conscious desi
