This could really be something else. I signed up and am #777 in line. I'm assuming this will be more worth the wait than Mailbox - and probably delivered about the same time.

The build, check, tweak, rebuild is certainly the most time consuming part of any iOS development. This is a really great enhancement.

While it can't do all of that, you Blekko let's you use slash tags like /programming or /ruby to limit your results to specific, relevant sites. Definitely my go-to for tech queries.

I'd highly recommend Blekko. It is by far the best alternative out there and they support tons of ways to get exactly what you need. Additionally, they run their own crawler so it's not just rehashing Bing results, etc.

You are allowed to overpay the IRS. If he'd like to pay more no one is stopping him from sending a check.

I would venture to say that photo sharing apps are the PREVIOUS geolocation apps. While they may be new as phone apps (as opposed to web apps), people have been sharing photos in a million different locations and ways for years (Twitter,

This is true (and SFO in San Francisco does not use the TSA). However, even the 5 private agencies airports may choose to use must follow the exact same procedures set by the TSA. So, while the TSA may not write the paychecks for those airp

The author of the article is the one who rightly explains that the only thing that has made us safer since 9/11 is locking cockpit doors and the knowledge that passengers should not comply with terrorists. In fact, that last one was learned

That's not a goal. That's a fantasy world. There will always be a tiny fraction of people that want to harm others. Whether it is because they have an agenda or are simply crazy (or likely both), they will always exist. We have the choice o

Some of the items are regional (east coast/west coast), but Joe Navarro is great. His book on poker tells is amazing. Reading it is like taking off glasses the next time you play a game.

jQuery is the library of the present. LOVE it. It's made me look forward to writing JS in my projects, and that's saying something.

I'm not sure I'd use it to the extent of the original poster, but I can think of a number of places it could come in handy. Like the ruby(&:function), frequently that is what you want to do. I would be curious to see if there is any pe

Spoiler warning When watching this the first time the facial expression at 2:29 clearly gives away the outcome. The pinched lips is a classic poker tell for discomfort in honesty. While in a poker game an experienced player can hide or m

I use Bugzilla at a place that was setup before I got involved. Too much noise for what we need, but too much legacy to change. Currently trying Lighthouse for a small 2 person project. I'm actually thinking that Google Wave could be inter

While an interesting examination, the problem with articles like this is they have lots of graphs and math to maximize dollars without any consideration of value that can't be stored in the bank; like pride of ownership, owner enjoyment, co

While Pixar may have "planned for 3D" from the beginning, I would bet cold hard cash that the director's preferred version is 2D and 3D is just what has to be done for the bottom line folks. You see, the problem with 3D is that for the addi

It's unclear to me how a company that auctions off its only real product (eyeballs to advertisers) can be an anti-competitive monopoly. I will say that I firmly believe competition is a good thing and would love to see competition for Googl

The notes on the page says that it "works with Firebug 1.4" which is the current beta of Firebug. I can't tell if that means it works with it or requires it, but perhaps that's your issue.

Absolutely true. Nothing here is ground breaking, but it seems like so many people forget this. My greatest successes have always come from trying to "scratch my own itch." In fact, it's usually something completely out of left field tha

Heroku is great (and free) for building and trying Ruby on Rails apps.

Yes and no. You're correct in that most CEOs aren't sending out resume "cold calls" or answering ads. However, even when you are suggested for a job via your professional network, the first step is going to be the company wanting to see so

I just deployed to a large instance on one of these and it was fantastic. I'd been on RedHat before, so I had a slight learning curve to the Ubuntu/Debian ways, but it's a great AMI. Add in a Sprinkle script* to deploy a full Rails/MySql/P

That's true - and another reason to go with Mac. On my Mac I can test Mac versions of Safari, Firefox, and Opera. I can also have virtual machines to test for Windows Firefox, IE6, IE7, and IE8 at the same time. If I were on a PC I would

While I think latency will still be an issue to some degree, it's probably not nearly to the level people are imagining due to current experience since this is quite different. With current gaming systems, everyone's computer/console is ren
