That would be awesome . If only those with the dough felt the same way... Granted, there are hurdles -- concern for theft, infrastructure for loss/repair/upgrades, etc. But it would be incredibly exciting nonetheless.

Yes, more comment influence would be more useful than the orange.

Awful lot of markup for something that could arguably be better-accomplished with standard techniques (a tiny image and/or javascript progressive enhancement).

With DoubleCommand, you can bind the right "Enter" key to be Control. (On my MBP at least... I assume macbooks are the same)

No, you can win e-mail tetris without cheating. You must decide for yourself which action your e-mails require: Trash, Defer, or Action. GTD gets this right. If you don't make those decisions as e-mail enters your box, you're effectively

That's true; Ruby and Python would both be worth learning. I'd push you toward Python, though, mainly because it has more traction outside of web development too (e.g. system administration, etc).

Posts are ordered by a function of both time and points, so they won't always be in point-based order.

I enjoy ragging on Windows as much as the next guy, but this post reminded me how much of an accomplishment Windows really is. Few software projects need to deal with such a huge range of compatibility issues between hardware and software d

Counterargument: Obtaining the usually-excellent reliability and stability that Google usually offers would be time-consuming, difficult, and a distraction. Sure I could set up a server with Postfix et al, but there's no way I'd be more rel

The nut of it: Ten months, seven trips to MSU, six blown fuses and about $60,000 later, I'm proud to introduce you all to Snakebite: The Open Network! A network of around 37-ish servers of all different shapes and sizes,

The general idea is worthwhile, but not to the extreme the author suggests: > Maintainability isn't a factor. Best practices don't > matter. Design patterns don't matter. All that matters > is getting things done.

What would it take to create a free codec rivaling H.264? Is it a patent issue or a technological one?

Sounds grim, of course, but without downs we couldn't experience ups.

YouTube uses a Flash embed to stream videos from their servers. It's their own proprietary player SWF, but anyone could theoretically create something similar. Flash (the software) contains built-in templates for such a thing. But this requ

I once used Spirit successfully, even though at the time I was not as well-versed in C++ as I should have been. I tend to like boost, because it makes a lot of things easy that would otherwise be difficult and/or time-consuming to write in

The website proclaims this loudly: > This is a quick hack. Never use this in the wild. Would be nice to know why, and what the alternative would be.

Have you talked to them about what's causing their performance issues? Are they unfamiliar with the technology? Is the framework itself cumbersome or poorly put together?

As one who used to play FS, what does that leave in terms of graphically rich FS games? Anything besides X-Plane?

That's not supposed to be surprising, is it? We're comparing an OS from circa 2001 with an OS from 2009, the latter with substantial new graphics and inevitable bloat associated with maintaining backward compatibility. It'd be near impossib
