    You have to take into account sweat as well. A boxer's face is probably going to be sweaty as they exert themselves quite a bit during a fight. As a result, the blood is going to g…

    Great for touchscreen, but tricky with a mouse. I would like to see an option for drawing gears where mouse down sets the center of a new gear and dragging away determines the radi…

    Drawing a slash through a gear seems to delete it. I'm not sure whether or not that is intentional

    In my experience, "good" code and "pretty" code are the same thing - and similarly for "bad" and "ugly". Of course, when I say "pretty", I mean well laid-out, properly documented, …

    I use so many different services/sites that having a different password for each one is unrealistic. Here's a small sample: Personal email, work email, version control at work, Git…

    This is questionable. If I enter 15 random alphabet characters, it gives me 49 years. 15 numbers is 2 days. 15 characters of punctuation is 743,000 years. If the cracker was trying…

    I use Astrid all the time to keep track of things I need to do, so I will be very disappointed if (read: when) Yahoo shuts it down and opens up a new "Yahoo To-Do" service. I under…

    Don't even get me started on what they did to Textedit. Apparently there's no such thing as saving anymore - it does it for you automatically. That one has bit me quite a few times…
