    It's all down to ignorance really isn't it. Isolated incidents by themselves aren't really a big deal. Idiots are everywhere. Sometimes people just don't think before speaking. Som…

    I have no idea what you are on about to be honest. Surely in this context generate == produce. I don't really get how you could take what I wrote as 'these guys made content "magic…

    pfft... like I said "What is this 'Women:' bit about?" I didn't realise that they had listed women explicity as a perk. I just thought it was a bad bit of copy. I didn't see their …

    What exactly was sexist about what they did? """Women: Need another beer? Let one of our friendly (female) event staff get that for you.""" Perhaps the quote is missing context, I …

    I disagree with the post. """The slope of this graph is the whole story. The complicated general purpose computers are at the bottom, and the simpler specialized computers are at t…

    I feel the same way unfortunately. I really wanted to like DDG but compared to Google I just found it a little too slow. I really like the bang syntax and well.. the search engine …

    It's bullsh*t. I agree that a person doesn't need to actually visit a country to face extradition. I agree that the US should be able to extradite people who break their laws and h…

    This makes you wonder about the current supply of talented developers. Where has that supply gone? I see no reason why Twitter would aquire Posterous for any reason other than the …

    This is the least exciting thing I have seen today. There are hundreds of these throw away games which are nothing more than a time sink and contain no more depth than an A4 sheet …

    I completely agree with the article though I think it misses what the iPad 3 is. I think most tech commenators miss the point. Apple isn't a traditional tech company. The majority …

    The message seems to be... Only 8 accounts were affected. Do not worry. Minor breach. Not much harm done. It seems to me the truth is the attacker looked for bitcoin wallets and em…

    I sympathise with the developers plight and this is a reason why I haven't wanted to get into App development. If your not battling people cloning your games, you have a constant a…

    I wonder if this can really make an impact with a bad name and all the patent trolls around. If you look at the patent wars between Android / iOS and Microsoft I wonder how many pa…

    I am really into 'do what works for you'. You may find that that sleeping in two 4 hour blocks changes your life. You feel alive! Alternatively you may find yourself more tired. Pe…
