I like the idea from a technical point of view, but I doubt it would make much of a difference in practice, because most home users log in with administrator accounts anyway. So do most developers. Only the rare,…
Are you joking or did you used to be a phreaker? That is hardcore! +1
Love it! To take it further, AT&T could choose to pay more to NOT have Verizon notified.
Donated. Thank you for opening up the online world to me, back in the days when just trying to connect to the Internet was a bit of an adventure!
+1, but I'd stop mentioning it after the first time (unless of course you're just doing this as an experiment and aren't really interested in selling the stuff)

Who on Earth said startups were easy?
The problem is not being "a bit of an ass" (embarrassing yourself), it's being "a bit of bullshitter/scam artist" (cheating others).
But the random username / random password / client-side SSL certificate is excellent security. The SSL certificate is, but not the random username. That's just a maintenance hassle. A username is not a secret - that's…
This is basically why I give everyone a unique email address, and /dev/null the address after I stop needing it. Offtopic, but what service do you use for this email redirection setup? Or do you run your own mail…
I'd go further: many people will happily agree to buy something for $x when they think it's all hypothetical, but would never actually buy it. Hence the oft-repeated advice "don't ask people if they would buy, ask them…
Have you done A/B testing on that, ie. whether you get more or fewer upvotes with the reminder?
+1 Perhaps it's their way of dealing with the fact that Office is just too expensive for many people, without acknowledging that to the public by dropping the price. People who don't use Office for business would…
I can just see it now... - A hidden admin account is perfect for debugging and support! - What if someone guesses the password? - Nah, who the hell is gonna guess THAT?!
Yes. I mean, I think the guy is an arrogant, unethical bastard, but IF you can just get past that and keep an open mind I think he does have a few interesting points on productivity, priorities, questioning what you…
The video is definitely very impressive, but I'm still far more impressed by the fact someone made this in 100 BC than that someone re-created it in 2010 AD. I had never heard of the Antikythera mechanism before.
+1 I think many people like houses as investments because they FEEL so "real" and tangible - you can touch them! Feelings are not a good way to decide what to invest in, however.
Love it! Clean, so simple it requires almost no instructions and it JUST WORKS. I also love the fact that I don't have to wait for the current image (or batch) to finish uploading and can immediately drag more files in.…
The real target audience of that site is people with a poor self-image. That's a perfectly valid target market - and a big one, I'd bet! Of course, they can't just come out and SAY "join if you have issues with your…
