Agile tariffs really only make sense if you have batteries. That way you can ride out the peaks by running off power generated in the troughs.

I agree. I don't think the point is that generated content is boring, but that HG's generated content depth was quite shallow. As stated in the article, if they doubled the size of…

Poor business model: I refer to their freemium offering which is poor compared to competitors. Security: If you think that's a judgement call, fine, if you think that the dropbox h…

That's a good question/point and suggests a lack of education of its users of alternatives which are cheaper/better/more reliable.

I'm struggling to understand why. It has a very poor business model, security issues and the storage for the price just doesn't add up. Google Drive or iCloud are far easier to set…

Psychic mode is/was amazing. I used to love freaking people out when I saw the 'You feel a disturbance in the force...' message and quickly type 'Hi!'.

I can't imagine any sane person actually blames him for his work and not the company that decides to put one developer in charge of writing such an important game in such a short s…

It only lasts for a few seconds? What happens afterwards?

As an FYI, the Chromium bug has now been unrestricted for public viewing - https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=437642

An impressive demo, but I'd like to see this being done with photos of varying quality and see how the performance fairs. I've got a Chrome extension that I could probably use this…

This is not new information though. Every page on the QuicksBlog contains the sponsorship information at the bottom of the page.

Actually, it is. It's in the readme on the first line! :)

I think it's probably from Greek mythology. Ponos was the God of hard labour - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponos

Way to go, Tim! It's a shame that he had to 'come out', but I hope that being the CEO of one of the world's biggest companies will help the LGBT cause.

I think this is definitely a more accurate representation of the joke. Although maybe drop one of the words. :)

I agree that living conditions will undoubtedly be hard at first, but will only improve from there. The first humans to live on Mars will almost certainly already have gone through…

Why do you think it'll be hard? I'm not saying it's going to be easy, but what difficult challenges to survival do you specifically think they'll struggle to overcome?

It's odd but sex is not mentioned even once as a legitimate release.

Your comment makes the fallacious assumption that all sex workers are breaking the law. The law on prostitution is VASTLY different between countries and states.

Is there a test suite/page for the will-change property in order to gauge vendor compliance?

Needs a tl;dr. Clearly my attention span is shot on a Friday night. :(

Brilliant game! I got pretty close, but even the AI managged to fail just a few moves before the completion. :( http://i.imgur.com/F2ldDAS.png

Not using version control in a development environment would be reckless. If you hate version control, you're either a bad developer, or you're using the wrong system.

It's a shame that they're not producing valid HTML.
