RedShift is pretty nice, easily configurable and you can just add it to your wm's startup. Pretty stable too, been using it for an year now.

God, I was so fed up with django.contrib.auth.models.User, not being able to ignore Username was probably the most insane part, I always felt email was a better choice than Username. I along with a bunch of people I know are looking forward

If Android team doesn't see this as a potential feature, they should at the least close the bug, just letting it rot does not align with the goal of having a bug tracker.

Though the article is new to me I don't understand the context of this submission. (Never using web.py and not being fully aware of Django's status in 2005) I see that overall they seem to have faired well. All you need is a settings.py fil

I think it's time to cut this 'version number' debate. Mozilla has been pretty clear about the plan to use such a system. The only problem was from enterprise users which Mozilla has addressed. The background auto-update is in the stable bu

Fc*king paywalls. This is such an amazing article, if only they could not have paywalls for research articles. Its as if the licenses will make enough money to fund the research, stupidity I say.

The docudrama 'The pirates of Silicon Valley' has a small clip with some IBM employees singing some song. I thought it was a one off thing.

The FF dev tools offer a very different experience compared to Chrome. I am curious about the rationale between having different views for web inspector & debugger. I am on Aurora/Ubuntu. The binding for the Debugger (Ctrl-Shft-S) doesn

This post specifically is arguable. But Zed's an excellent programmer and teacher. I even heard a first person account that he is a very pleasant guy.

Many people claim Java gives better performance. I would like to know from some experienced programmers how it had been a few years ago. Was Java always this well performing? Seems like Java community did quite a lot to get Java to perform

I've been a fairly recent Emacs user, a year and half I suppose. I've found Xah really helpful in some cases when I was starting with Emacs. He tries to start online discussions, writes some tutorials in his blog, even starts G+ hangouts wh

When you talk about self-defense, even here in India one is allowed to own a gun if he gets a license. It's not impossible to own a gun here, it is just more regulated. That way not every Tom, Dick and Harry can own a gun. Criminals can get

Living here in India it's surprising to see the mostly unregulated Gun sale in the US. I believe it's a right the constitution of US grants to its citizens. But I've read that this is a major cause for higher homicidal rate in the US. It s

OMFG, are they this desperate to fight off Gmail! People call G+ a desperate attempt, but this is ground-bottom. There's only word to describe this, disaster.

LastPass is an excellent service to manage your passwords. Their Firefox add-on is amazing. If you are not the paranoid-type (i.e. not scared to put your passwords in a 3rd party cloud) then I strongly recommend LastPass. Their browser add-

I once used Quickoffice on a Symbian S60 phone. I should say, it's capabilities were pretty impressive. Especially with the meager resources available on those old so-called smart phones. I hope this helps Google build better native Office

In these screenshots, the borders of inactive tabs disappear. This doesn't seem like a good idea. Wouldn't it be hard for users to identify them as tabs?

This is a horrible way of treating 3rd party developers. Apple should keep in mind that one of the major reasons any platform has ever been successful is because of a strong suite of 3rd party applications, be it Windows, iOS or Android. Mi

+1 I had started learning Python 3. But my job now is on Django, so I am forced to use Python 2. I know a good number of people who had the same problem.

The best thing to do is, download their demos and hack them. But if you are looking for a clean solution, then go native, mobile web still sucks. (I so wish it dint)
