Hah, I always thought M+ 1m was my little secret that I had discovered; apparently it's the fifth most popular coding font. It's significantly more narrow than most monospaced fonts while still being easy to read, allowing for mor

> Further clarification could be achieved by making the X button actually say "Disallow" and giving it a border separate from the word "Allowed." I agree. An X usually means "close" or "hide this thing,

I thought it was a joke, suggesting that everyone is so caught up with the presidential election, they may have forgotten who the current one is. I thought it was pretty funny. :P

I used OwnCloud for a while and never had any problems with it, but it seemed like overkill for my use. I didn't have multiple users and I wasn't using it to share files with anyone -- just syncing files between my own devices. I

The title is accurate. People think of Firefox OS as a smartphone operating system; Mozilla is killing that off. They may be reusing the name on something else, but Firefox OS, (as we know it right now,) is being discontinued.

Million-dollar aircraft tend to have people on them, while $30 drones don't. I think that's what he was getting at.

Also worth mentioning: Chrome for Android did this last year. GP was asking about iOS, but it's not an iOS-specific thing.

- Most updates are being reviewed within 7 weeks. - Most preliminary reviews are being reviewed within 10 weeks. I know people have complained about the long approval processes for Firefox addons, but I had no idea it was so absurd.

It is definitely convenient -- in fact, using one system exclusively almost always provides the best user experience. (Apple has had great success with that idea.) Having Pocket bundled with eBook readers and browsers is convenient, but tha

This looks exactly like Shout[1]. This seems to be an IRC channel, and you have a web interface (using Shout) hosted on your domain, with some of Shout's features removed so that people can't use it to connect to other IRC server

They've said that they don't intend to support this because the web interface has features like previewing images and editing ODF docs. So, in order for that to work, the server has to be able to read the actual file. As others ha

> BitTorrent Sync remains the most secure and private way to to move data between two or more devices. That very first sentence will always be false as long as it isn't open source. (Even the protocol isn't publicly documented,

That's a really good way of putting it; I hadn't thought of it that way before. Fair enough! :)

I'll check it out, but in his past reviews, I've had the impression that the author really likes showing off his background knowledge of all things Apple. A lot of the text is irrelevant to the review, and therefore shouldn't

I don't think so. PGP scrambles the text of the message for you (that's the body), but you're still using the standard email protocol, which sends attachments without making changes to them. You'd need to encrypt the fil

Unfortunately, all I can see is either 1) a pretzel, or 2) the mouth area of Darth Vader's mask. I don't usually over-think logos, but this one looks strangely angular, aggressive, and kinda mean-looking, considering Watsi is a no

True, but I think you could say the same thing about git. It's a big bundle of binaries, and there aren't alternatives available that you can swap in and out. And yet, git is seen as the perfect example of the Unix philosophy. Peo

I'm really excited about this. I recently installed Firefox OS 1.4 on my cheapo ZTE Open (it came with 1.0), and the difference is huge. I thought I heard somewhere that they are shooting for 2.0 in July. Ignore everything this article

It'd be great if there was a compiler that would compile TypeScript to asm.js [0]. Adding type-safety in TypeScript is only for the programmer -- when you compile it to Javascript, you don't get any performance increase. But, if y

I read their Jira thread, and I was convinced it was a joke, too. The project manager mentioned some poll that no one else had heard of, and then other people kept coming up with reasons as to why it made sense to have had a short poll for

Yeah (although I actually have OSX), that'd be nice. Related to this, today I just discovered Brackets[1]. It also has some nice git features, like highlighting changed lines. Like Atom, it's written in HTML5. Unlike Atom, it&#x27

Dang! I'm sure they'll discontinue it soon, seeing as how there's no point for both Zite and Flipboard to exist under the same company. I stopped using Zite because it didn't allow you to read things offline, and I think

This is exciting -- the only similar thing I'm aware of is BitTorrent Live. Seems like the same idea, except I'm pretty sure they have no intention of making BitTorrent Live open source. (The protocol is patented[0], even.) Seems

It seems like the usual "Hi, I'm the new CEO" letter can't be very inspiring. I mean, it would be rude for him to slam Steve Ballmer right after replacing him -- he needs to have some tact. And, he can't be to ent

The only bug here that was "bugging" me was that issue 3857, where you had to specify the username in your config rather than being able to just do it on the fly in the command. Nice to see the rest getting fixed, though. While we

This does not deserve to get downvoted, you're right in pointing this out. I mean, applications are accepted on February 10th, and then IF you get to go, you have nineteen days to get there? I know a lot of attendees will already be
