As an interesting exercise to satisfy my curiosity (nothing more) - Assume I have a Linux DVD and install this on a computer with no network connection. I then delete all CA's and …

Looks good and all... but I'm interested in the story on how it leaked on Twitter. The link just goes to the Github repo now.

I'll chime in here with my experience. I am not someone who generally suffers from claustrophobia, but as a tall person (6ft 5in) who is by no means fat, I can honestly say it was …

You can shorten it even further to typing 'fori' then triggering the expansion by pressing tab. Best shortcut that every IntelliJ user should know is "Find Action" (ctrl + shift + …

I might be missing something here, but where is the passphrase negotiated? Apart from calling or talking to the other person, the only way to define this common key that I can see …

Japan uses them at airport check ins for their ticketing.

What is the best way to establish optimal pool size? The article seems to gloss over this and instead mentions 'you need to set pool: 25', but I doubt this is a one size fits all s…

> Now with hundreds of millions of map views across thousands of subscribers, the stability and scalability wins are clear I'd also be interested to see a write up on these aspects…

One problem I have with the current 2FA on Google Apps is that there is no way to enforce 2FA for all users before everyone sets up their mobile device. If you've set the requireme…

As someone who uses Terminal.app, what are the benefits of using iTerm2? After looking at the features of iTerm2[1], I see a lot of it as superfluous. That said I can see a usecase…

I'd like to mention SourceTree[0] for a GUI DVCS. I typically drop to the terminal for git usage, but every so often use SourceTree when I need something that is easier achieved wi…

These decisions typically have much wider reaching ramifications, like an existing tech stack which relies on some quirk of IE6, or activeX. Yes, it's simple to upgrade a browser, …

I think this really depends on your target market. Big corps such as banks are typically slow to move and I know of at least one which is only just moving from IE6 now.

I think this stems from the memory these people hold that the item (whatever it is, doughnut, site access etc) was once free. People will wonder "why did this change?". It could be…

Definitely another criteria we would like to have. Will try and source the info and add it in the future. Cheers!

Dropdowns are a bit more intuitive now, hope that clears up any confusion :)

Ha - yeah I wouldn't be surprised. We haven't looked to make it mobile friendly yet, but it is on the list. Thanks for checking it out!

Appreciate the feedback! We're working to add the field labels now so stay tuned. With regard to price, its a tough one. We purposefully left it out initially because it's subjecti…

Yep definitely more info required here isn't there :) This targets the Australian market, and more specifically the state of New South Wales. Some of the bikes may be expensive (or…

As a bit of background, in most states of Australia you can only ride restricted motorbikes (commonly referred to as LAMS bikes) when on your learner or provisional license. As mot…

This is a good way for Facebook to leverage existing mobile App infrastructures without stepping on too many people’s toes. Developers are responsible for developing an app, and pu…

FTA: "if a mobile app requires installation, they will be sent to download the app from the App Store or Google Play". This would lead me to believe it is going to run like some ex…

It's great to see you reaping a reward for going out on a limb - congratulations! How do you think your pitch would have been received had this been in a more traditional forum? Do…
