He's clearly way out of his league, but then, has managed to pull it off... so maybe not. I see him as extremely sleazy - just the type of person who I hate to see become successful. Facebook is the prime example of a…
Dynamically typed, no. Interpreted, yes.
It would be typical of the media/American public to act as if this statement was what made them think that they were not respected by the individuals who run corporations, while they didn't seem to get the idea from…
I'm quite sure that I could accomplish that. Bulk brown rice, lentils and beans are extremely economical. Combined with some greens and fruit/vegetables from my own garden plus the bounty of nature (you can walk outside…
Nothing that has occurred since the incident has given me the impression that BP has a complete understanding of what's going on.
Their traffic allotment is fairly generous compared to comparable services. Sure, if you compare it to something like 1and1 with 'unlimited' for $12, maybe not, but you don't get the same control and reliability for…
Yeah, I'm glad they have the linode.typepad.com status blog - when Dallas is down, I can't connect to members.linode.com or status.linode.com to see what is going on! I know DOS attacks aren't their fault, but we've had…
Slicehost: St. Louis Linode: Dallas
I have one in Dallas, too. Nothing curious about it, take a look at http://linode.typepad.com/ Perhaps my requirements or expectations are higher than your own. The downtime hasn't been excessive, but sometimes, it is…
Yes, that's one of the disturbing things about the oil industry. The oil companies have done their best to make sure usage of oil is as inefficient as possible, since that is in their medium-term economic interest...…
I was thinking '720 to 768? That's not such a big deal...' until I actually read the chart. That's great! My 720 just went to a 1024. Thanks, Linode!
I've had sites on linode and slicehost, and have found Slicehost to have less downtime, packet loss, network problems (unreachable), and so on. I'm satisfied with both, overall.
Unfortunately, I've been close to a couple of companies where the founders, while they did have the original drive to create the company, have no idea how to manage a business. These are companies founded by 23 year old…
Strange, I pictured Comic Sans more as an out of touch, 53 year old woman who enjoys knitting and is a bit spacey than an angry, egotistical, abusive frat kid, or whatever this is supposed to portray. The author has…
'lines of LOC' sounds to me like a phrase meaning 'lines and lines of frivolous code of which the only value is incrementing the LOC count'.
The text is set to 22px, then that style is overwritten with '100%', meaning 22px. This is huge by desktop standards. 3% of people will be reading your words with an iPad. A much more common font size would be about…
I find it difficult to use for storing arbitrary information, personally.
A colleague of mine has a daughter who went into full-blown puberty at the age of 7. Bodily changes, emotional lability - everything that usually happens at 13. The doctors recommended they cut out the use of plastics…
I think he means duplicate keys, as in '?id=4&color=8&id=6'
I was seeking to avoid the same thing recently. Instead of adding more JavaScript, I decided to use PHP. While we're using Rails, it's very inefficient to fire up the whole engine to do something as simple as outputting…
Yeah, I think that they added this, faced a backlash, flubbed the rollout, and then did an about-face the next day is noteable for various reasons.
Microsoft intentionally made Netscape (more) unstable and slower, if I recall. is there any reason to think they wouldn't respond to Firefox's growing popularity is to intentionally make it perform poorly? I'm very,…
I don't think you can 'accidentally' install a toolbar in Firefox.
100% agreed, I hate watching videos. I don't have the time to sit there and stare at something, and well, you said the rest.
I recently bought my first MacBook and was wondering exactly the same thing. How can all of the other manufacturers miss the point to this extent? Simple branding. Simple model distinction. "15 inch". Elegance. High…
