Edge's reading list shows newer entries at the top. The problem is you don't have to do anything extra to use tabs. You just... leave them open, and then there's no reason to use bookmarks or reading list or history

Your site may be self-selecting for people who don't use Edge somehow. Our session count on a site geared for the average person puts Edge closer to 13%: Chrome - 57.54% IE - 14.12% Edge - 12.88% Firefox - 9.30% Safari - 4.13% Other br

Not only have I gotten used to it (pretty much immediately), I get really annoyed when it's the other way.

I'm not even necessarily talking about just the hardware specifically - the whole experience stinks. Nobody's really figured out what to do with it yet. I think mainstream VR as a whole will have to be something way different fr

I think VR can only become mainstream/ubiquitous once it has an "iPhone moment" that fundamentally changes what VR even is in the first place. Right now everyone is thinking about how to make the VR we heard about 30 years

It's awesome that you made it this far, but to be honest 3k MAU just isn't enough. If you're making money through ads, you'll want more eyeballs on them so try getting more users! Depending on how far you want to take it

It depends on your audience as well (surprise, you need to understand who will be using your product). What we've found through AB testing with the game I work on is that our best (read: highest-value) players are very experienced with

I'll have to try when I get home, but I'm curious how speech recognition will do against the message chosen for the touchscreen record. I'm not 100% sure how to even pronounce a couple of the words: http://www.gu

This is obviously anecdotal but I work on a somewhat popular web game (millions of sessions/month despite having a mobile app) and Chrome OS (1.15%) represents less of our sessions than even 3rd place Linux (1.23%). We actually get alm

You actually TALK on the phone? I have one of the smallest voice plans AT&T offers that still has unlimited text and even that has way too many minutes. I think the only number I actually call is my parents' land line. Even my dent

Hell I'm in an industry many consider somewhat shady and practically the only telemetry we use for ads is "user installed the app" and "user paid us." Even that's mostly just to keep the ad partner honest. Ever

For me types make prototyping WAY faster, especially if "throw" or some other keyword satisfies the return type of a function. I can write out the function signatures and data types I need and get things to line up with the help o

Well of course I won't have any impact on code quality when I don't actually write any code, because I can't stay focused while working from home. I'll take a non-open plan office over WFH any day

Indeed you can't take money out of them, and the various app stores have pretty strict policies about this. Honestly, if Valve gets worried about gambling laws they could learn a few things from casino apps here. There are a few of the

The reading view in Edge (and metro IE fwiw) works as well

It makes manual refactoring easier too in the sense that you now have a tool that can tell you what you broke and how to fix it.

I mean, if your laptop or phone have Miracast support you don't have to install anything or buy the Apple TV or remote thing. Maybe just a dongle if the tv itself doesn't support it.

Sure, unless you put that audio CD in your computer and Sony installed a rootkit.

Can it be done with something that's not Javascript? Not trolling, I'm genuinely asking.

"Due to the rapidly decreasing demand for downloadable software in favor of web apps [...]" I just hope they get rid of the memory leaks in their web apps...

Which is kind of sad in a way. I really prefer Actionscript over Javascript :(

I can already press ctrl+enter in Opera to sign into any of my accounts after I do it once. So I guess this is a more complex but also more secure way of doing that?

Also, Kleenex. Possibly the "Duck" brand of tape as well since people seem to have trouble saying duct tape.

We should always learn to write. Think about it- if something happens and we can no longer use electronic devices, where would we be without the ability to write? That said, I don't think cursive is all that important.
