The PDF export feature sounds great - but even something simpler like a CSV, JSON, heck even XML would give others a lot more freedom to handle the data however which they choose.

> Users who do "Ctrl-S" to do fast save are certainly a minority. My first reaction: How else do you save?! You mean you actually take your hands off the keyboard, and click the fl…

It's about intent. If they can prove you manufactured data you fed to the dongle, then you're probably in for some trouble. However, you can have a similar scenario where maybe I w…

It's not just the visuals either - they have a bunch of the apps down really really well. Finder, Calculator, Calendar, the top menu, etc. All really spot on. I'm playing around in…

It's just good security practice. Even if the code path is never intended to be executed, there are bugs in code that could lead to it. Yes, it's a P2P protocol, but when you're ma…

There is still a lot of crypto out there that works off of using the current timestamp as a seed. Being able to control he time could theoretically let you control any PRNGs that r…

Group threads are done over MMS. They absolutely do exist out of iMessage.

It's called a "tracking number" for a reason.

IBM has its place, especially in the big enterprise. However, more and more I'm seeing that's not the case. Working for a big insurance co., we're seeing a big shift toward a "devo…

The Python script is a bit unnecessary. Go to System Preferences > Spotlight. Uncheck items you don't like to have searched and displayed for you.

Think about the user experience. If switching, a user no longer has to wait on delivery of a small physical item from the new carrier. The user doesn't have to fiddle with a paperc…

> We currently have I have a feeling this may be because even "Close Buttons" on ads have a reputation for being untrustworthy. I've drilled it into the heads of all of my not-so-c…

Because your entire post reads like an ad for Spoon Studio. Also, what does "Nowhere in 'docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash' does it say something about LXC." even mean? Docker is b…

But see, that all falls apart when you say: > "there should be a way for the SMTP/IMAP server to notify the client and remove it." As long as the protocol requires the client to ob…

Is your iPad permanently hooked up to your TV? Many people have rather large HDTVs and would much prefer to watch on there rather than on a tiny screen you have to carry around or …

I find the "well then just pay your taxes" answers to be on the same level of "well if you have nothing to hide...". You can be a honest and tax-paying citizen of society and still…

IE8 is a problem because many big enterprises still run it. I know of several big US corporations that, even though they run Windows 7 now, still deploy it with IE8 for compatibili…
