We tested AeroFS and BTSync on a variety of data in shared folders, and consistently found sync issues with BTSync. We eventually abandoned BTSync for AeroFS, and while it hasn't been perfect, it's been considerably…
This is correct. They also show when someone is a Vine reviewer (which is an invitation-only program), even if the product being reviewed was purchased, and not provided via Vine. The conflict of interest argument will…
Same here. There's no way I'd use an IM client that doesn't allow me to set my status manually.
Except your decision really won't win you as many customers as it'll lose you. I was interested in buying it until I saw this thread. Having manual status turned off by default, but available to enable in settings,…
Eh, "the Apple bug" is a bit off the mark in this case, since Apple's own IM client allows one to set away status.
• As a point of reference, the average price of a new car in August was $31,252. (That's a US statistic, but all I found.) The average cost of a bicycle is probably three-figures. • Ownership of the two is not mutually…
Sure, it had its roots in KDE's KHTML and KJS, but WebKit was started as an internal Apple project, and without their efforts it's highly unlikely that KHTML/KJS would have ever developed into the dominant layout…
WebKit? ALAC? On top of that, Apple's done more than any other single player (except perhaps Adobe!) to move the industry away from Flash, to open alternatives. No, they don't always follow standards or always have open…
I'd be interested to see your thoughts on each distro, even if it's just a sentence or two. Switching quickly, while obviously making some types of perspective difficult to develop in such a short timeframe, probably…
I suspect there were other factors which prevented your success. There were no measures to technologically limit one's ability to perform multiple installations from a purchased OS X install disc. You could buy two…
That's interesting, I'd like to know more about that. There are certainly areas where some level of multitasking can be trained. For some, it's still merely fast switching, and for the gifted few, there's the capacity…
I like that, though they'd need a Humvee.
Dual-view, in two windows. Also, uploading would make it an instant non-starter for me, due to data sensitivity issues.
This kind of link-bait title and article seems above The New Yorker.
"You can multitask? Fine. Then read a book and write one at the same time." -David Weinberger, 1999 Obviously (the excellent) William James predates this by some time, but within the context of the modern era, this sort…
Noticed the same thing. I hope they're more careful with their software design and monetization plan than they were with that announcement. And at some point they should probably address that it's still an…
They've become considerably less transparent about fraud-related adjustments in recent months, both in the UI, and on invoices. Employees who seek clarification tend to get very little in the way of answers. Not saying…
Yeah this kind of scenario is absolutely realistic. I've seen, firsthand, stuff that makes the above look downright honorable, and done by major, major players. When there's money and success at stake, it's difficult to…
I've been fortunate enough to have first-hand access to the analytics platforms of a number of fairly high-traffic sites (in the tens-to-hundreds of millions of unique visitors per month), and not once did Hitwise,…
That's fair. I'll do better.
Thanks. Viciousness wasn't my intent. I'll rephrase it: the definitions on the site, or at least the few-dozen I looked at, seem like forced attempts at a particular strain of hip cleverness. Which is what one often…
I'm curious to know just how the original comment didn't reek of Reddit's culture of vacuous pithiness. Down-votes without discussion strike me as being against the generally productive atmosphere this place usually has.
Sorry, typed that one out on a touchscreen and blew it. "baitait" = "bait"
Sorry for the stalkwardness, but I guess my horrorlarity made everyone feel totally brewed. Now could those who're downvoting me please tell me what about my feedback they found either inaccurate or irrelevant? A site…
Thanks for the insight. Every major publication runs a piece just like this every few years. The exotic countries and methods always differ somewhat, but the formula is always the same. It's the pseudo-intellectual…
