What is Ticketmaster doing about outrageous fees?

100% confidential? Nothing is 100% confidential if it's connected to the Internet.

Nice. Are you using the Tessaract OCR lib at the core of the extraction?

I always use Adblock. I also use Do Not Track, dot.js (to modify pages), Tampermonkey, Ghostery when needed and other extensions / scripts. I also clear my cookies upon closing the…

Congrats to PhantomJS! CasperJS is built on top of PhantomJS and adds some cool assertions: http://casperjs.org/

It's posts like this that make me embarrassed to be a programmer. The author basically states, "Node.js is not a good fit for my company, therefor everyone using node.js is wasting…

In my case, I have a Garmin for GPS, which is much more reliable than any phone GPS I've used. If you compare the quality of a point and shoot digital camera vs a smart phone, the …

I have a Droid incredible. Here is my experience: If you have "use wireless networks" and Gps turned on, things don't always work right. If you have just Gps turned on the experien…
