I agree in theory, but it's difficult to align values with someone whose strategy is to shift blame to clients and subordinates due to lack of planning and communication skills. These people create a toxic, reactive…
Incompetent people will often take politically expedient decisions that cause more harm than good but protect their positions.
Those are locusts.
A lot of the things he hates about OOP are exactly the things I like about it!
The people who believe in these types of predictions don't put much stock in science anyway. Someone who doesn't believe in carbon dating isn't going to listen to an argument regarding the Earth's age based on carbon…
My main complaint from the book is that Isaacson injects his own opinion too strongly and too often. He writes it like a novel, with him guiding us to the conclusions he has prepared for us. Instead I would have…
The mobile version of this article is terrible. The scrolling "jerks" to whatever page it thinks I should be on - very strange.
I dislike how there is no visual difference between read and unread items.
No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.
You can't get something for nothing, eventually we'll have to pay some price for these services and we're finally beginning to realize what that is.
I want search functionality at the grocery store.
An even bigger problem than password reuse, in my opinion, is secret question formulas to reset your password. My banking site requires a strong password, which of course means that I often forget it, which means that…
Cool. The ghosts aren't very intelligent. :)
All the time!
The day we are required to artificially manage the world's climate to survive is the day we become inevitably doomed.
Doesn't seem like a big deal to me. I think a lot of Zuckerberg's bad press comes from his age: i.e., people are jealous of his success.
Why do you think that? Jealousy is a human emotion and has no limits, and no level of success or achievement is a guarantee to be free of desire for more.
I admit I've been curious about exactly it would look like and what would happen if the entire underground oil field were to somehow spill into the ocean at once.
I think the real metrics regarding the effects of these privacy issues are going to be much harder to measure. I don't think there will be a lot of people outright shutting down their Facebook account, but instead…
Demand has been lower due to the global recession -- there is no indication that oil production can't go higher than ever before, once demand starts picking back up.
I got pretty into peak oil circa 2006, when peak was supposedly already occurring or was going to occur by 2008. It will happen eventually, but I'm not going to get into playing this guessing game again.
That paints a pretty telling picture. I took the opportunity to look through my privacy settings on Facebook. It seems that applications can now access certain information about me through my friends, even if I haven't…
If you're using gchat over pidgin, then the OTR plugin.
I love these things, as a gay coder I get to feel special and like I'm representing my kind with my views. ;) In my experience, it's not geeks specifically that are more accepting, but educated people in general. It…
Maybe they meant a wifi stick; I know people who use these to connect to other wifi hotspots from work.
