All else aside, calling the person who turned the phone over to Gizmodo a thief might amount to slander, so Craig should be careful. This would be something for a court to decide: e.g.…
You should track at what times the people click next. Your like button is too far away from the next button, and neither has keyboard shortcuts.
It seems to have gotten us h264. The variant that isn't patented is clearly inferior - look at the screenshots.
Good move, you now have one more user to not-track. I'll be trying DuckDuckGo out as my default search. I'll give you feedback if it doesn't work out. I hope others will give you a try by setting you as the default, too…
A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that Godel's result suggests a superiority of human over machine, or something of the sort. There is, however, no reason to believe humans aren't themselves subject to…
Yes, and a short, unsearchable domain name that I can't type either. Allows invalid characters: http://séó.com/!]
The students and parents are also presumably fully aware. If on the other hand they were unaware, the student's mistake of opening a webcam program would not reduce culpability.
I get the feeling that you have no idea how science works, or what he's saying. He's not saying that the 3rd law is faith, he's saying that you take it on faith. A statement of faith is one that rests on no proof or…
Nice soundbite, but that's nonsense. They're not trying to compete with Apple. It's just a demo they had lying around (probably from back when everyone was going crazy about chrome os), which they released because…
Yes, it feels like "vinyl" - like I'm listening to vinyl except I'm in a little storage closet and I just tipped a box of records all over my face and my face is bleeding. You broke your site. This is a visualization…
The US government is allowed to exempt itself from intellectual property restrictions, especially in the interests of "national security".
Surprisingly, the South Butt is not selling butts, so tarnishment is not a serious claim. (Unless, of course, butts are "unsavory" in the jurisdiction - had a sufficiently rude word been used, tarnishment would be…
You can't summarize that paper. The responses to the various objections are vital; they are part of the central argument, not tangential to it. The positive argument is also much richer than you portray it, and…
I like the clean interface. Your gear image looks ugly. Remove the period after "...wage right now". Set up a comet-based common chat that everyone sees, and sit in it. This will let you help users learn to use your…
$300 is accessible to "hobbyist" researchers (hackers) - this is the main point of this story - and hackers will crack DRM.
Great, I'm finding it readable, and pretty well-selected. I look forward to seeing the next issue.
Why waste 20 minutes of a professional developer's time, multiplied by the average number of reviewers, with a bonus for bad advice due to inexperience? You know those clients who think programming is easy? Writing and…

Awesome, some real information, rather than pointless and obvious speculation as to what happened. He links a news story: http://www.thetimesherald.com/article/20091211/NEWS01/912110...
That argument's hardly better than the "he helps cats therefore he's innocent" quip at the bottom of the link. Quit thinking of there being two sides: there's no "other story", there's just "insufficient information".…
This isn't a webapp, it's a wizard for naive prediction of the date of the singularity (you seem to mix AI with a very narrow form of IA). You're not quite "modeling" a future world. Java sucks for this - why use it,…
I agree, but yes it is: 1) you can't unscramble variable names, and 2) you have to prettyprint all js, even well-written js, or create a 'compression detection' algorithm.
No, the example given was voice clips. Your idea of a "trial run" is interesting, but I doubt that they're doing this to get some extra logistics practice. Unlike gmail or wave, mass mailing is a well-explored domain.…
Cheating is now easier. That's good, for two reasons: 1. The steps are small and have clear documentation. Copying a wall of numbers does nothing. Copying delimited steps while being told exactly what they are helps.…
