I always thought that was some kind of urban myth that programmers made up to make themselves look better.

one word: Flashblock

added this to my start tabs

which is actually a good thing

I like how I dont have to visit Coding Horror regularly to see whether there is a new post but rather just check HN

earlier today I was wondering whether someone already created a compilation of those, thanks a lot op! I think these icons are great for protyping/design mockups.

fun fact: In Germany it's exactly the other way round at least for 99% of the banks. You will get a free debit card at every bank but you have to put down a considerable amount of …

had the same problem when my FF was 30% browser and 70% extensions

Price of this Kindle in DE : 99 EUR (134 USD)

thanks for keeping me updated about redis :)

I think Ghostery deserves some promotion here : http://www.ghostery.com/ available for all major browsers. It blocks near to all webbugs including the facebook social plugins.
