I think the bigger lesson is probably something along the lines of: First, make sure they can do the job technically, within some sort of parameters of what they can currently do a…

> The specialisation means that work for "web designers" has declined IMO. Yep, exactly. There isn't really such thing as a "web designer" anymore (or rather, there isn't going to …

I think that like in most industries, the low-end has become commoditised. Want to sell stuff online? It used to cost thousands of dollars to get an online store up and running. No…

I agree that at some point (probably reasonably early on actually) it would start taking longer to say the number out loud than one second, so you'd fall behind. However we're talk…

They are using it, they just don't reference it specifically in the article. You can try the demo: https://s3.amazonaws.com/gabe-cc-form/index.html

Interesting - what trouble did you have with the banks here? I am a NAB customer and when we got married it was one form to fill in (with associated documentation) to update my wif…

My parents were incredibly insistent that my sister and I understand how they did their personal and business finances and it's among the best things they taught us (neck-and-neck …

You needed iTunes to act as a conduit to get songs onto the iPod, but you could either sync it with one iTunes library, or leave it in manual mode and load songs from any iTunes. I…

> The fact that the Apple Watch doesn't "fit beneath the shirtsleeve" as OP points out is a major ding: form is as important as function for such a jewelry/tech hybrid. A 2x slimme…

I'm not sure your follow up clarifies your point, but it's entirely possible I'm misunderstanding it. Are you saying that the only way Apple can sell their products for such a prof…

I think this is a key point that's further backed up by Apple's recent hiring of people from the high-end fashion space. It certainly seems to me that Apple aren't even trying to d…

Received by email at 6:30pm on a Friday night.

I use this every day basically for pushing and pulling to and from Github. For pretty much every other git function I use SourceTree. I find the Github app too limiting for most gi…

I think you've slightly misrepresented the second driver's intentions. The article says: "...the guy behind, he sees the two or three seconds and thinks, oh, the guy in front of me…

Thanks for posting this, I couldn't figure out what they were referring to by "Greek fucks".

I imagine this is a bug; the feature was only introduced in iOS6 (I think, possibly 5)

Anecdotally: We created a Netflix account when S4 of Arrested Development was released, and have kept it specifically to watch House of Cards and Orange is the New Black, obviating…

I may be misremembering, but I have a feeling the per-app volume mixer was available all the way back in Windows XP. Possibly sound-card dependent? An app called Jack OS X does the…

Here is a 2010 article, also on TUAW, about the same thing: http://www.tuaw.com/2010/04/12/9-41-9-42-the-secret-of-apple...

Funnily enough, the form in the original post validated my credit card number as Amex and then validated a 3-digit CVV number as OK.

Really? Seems a bit unnecessary to take the spot completely out of action because the meter is broken. Here (Melbourne), if a meter is faulty but the council doesn't know, you can …

I found this really helpful insofar as grasping orders of magnitude of big numbers: 1 thousand seconds is 16.7 minutes 1 million seconds is 11.6 days 1 billion seconds is 31.6 year…

I think you mean A5, not A3 (A3 is bigger than A4)

Like what? I genuinely can't think of any. I agree that there are advantages to Bitcoin over other payment methods. No dispute there. But your original contention was that Apple wa…
