The fact that they are using rails demonstrates more newbie-style cluelessness, to me. Not even remotely a good choice. But, the sort of things 4 guys fresh out of college with no experience would think was the obvious…
I think anyone might find it confusing when they search for something specific and their words are automatically changed - except for spelling fixes.
It has a lot to do with Reddit in that Reddit was available, better, and already fairly well known. It's not like the article could possibly go "How Digg's Whatever Benefited Mixx.com". Reddit was basically standing…
Oh no, you mean they have to go to Starbucks or something?
I, too was annoyed when Google changed to automatically 'fixing' your terms a few years back. Sometimes it's useful, sometimes it isn't. Sometimes they TELL you at the top, sometimes they don't. It took me a while to…
I have seen a blank page on Google, too within the past couple of days. Never saw anything of the sort before. It was when I clicked to try a search on News, and I couldn't get that search to come up with anything…
I'm sure they do that on a bit by bit basis, when they're isolating one transaction at a time, but are you sure that when they 'freeze' an entire account, they reverse all of the transactions?
I totally agree. But still, these people are serious in a way. It's generally the hobby or very-very entry level range. The thing is, they'll spend plenty of money on supplies and marketplace fees, but have this…
Ha, that's funny. I work with web advertising for micro businesses and some people just will NOT pay even $10-20 for a web ad to be designed.
It's not 'virtual' money. We're not talking tokens here, this is actual money.
Directing to the original source is more authoritative and informative.
Their site really is slow as can be. I dread not being able to dig something up in my email, that means I have to go use Paypal's search - each page can seriously take 10-15 seconds to come up.
Sure, rebooting is often the most straightforward way to fix runtime issues because it resets everything. In this case, sounds like resetting the clock would have been just as effective. I'm sure these days, you'd have…
If the US, EU, and Japan are doomed, who isn't? I don't think the answer is China and India. China's plan seems to be to lurch full steam ahead (no pun intended) into our style of entirely non-sustainable petroleum and…
I think you're seeing a knee-jerk reaction to what is seen as a knee-jerk reaction to Microsoft. The truth is, MS clearly sucks beyond any hope. People are sick of hearing it, though, so especially if they use Windows…
I think that's reading a lot into this paraphrasing.
The less compilation, the better.
Oops, RMS probably would have punched me for that. Okay, look into 'free software' and the phenomenon known as 'GNU'.
I wonder if that has changed recently? I recall hearing about this issue in the past in regards to Office and Wine.
You might want to look into the concept 'open source' and study the phenomenon known as 'linux'. It sounds as if you've never heard of either one.
Good move. I had a girlfriend whose father worked designing guidance systems for rockets. He couldn't speak a word about his job to his family, and it was apparent that his conscience struggled with the fact that his…
I think MacOS is close enough to a commercialization of Linux for the desktop to count as that. (I realize it's not based on Linux of course, but the result is very similar).
It makes sense in terms of physics. Start at 0, red, the beginning of the visible spectrum, and the number increases along with the wavelength, all the way through violet, the other end of the visible spectrum.
And maybe hire some experienced programmers/project managers to architect the system first? My experience with the code put out by fresh CS graduates is that it's a bit naive and by-the-textbook, not surprisingly.
No, it's because Applets, like Flash, are a narrow, specific, proprietary setting. Nobody has ever questioned that Java can handle something like that. The interesting part here is that it is showing that browsers and…
