when will you add instant search results in the browser's search box? For example, if i use Firefox and have Google ad the default, and i type "32 * (13 - 9)" it will instantly sho…

looks correct on latest firefox. what browser are you using?

The difference is the base of the Project Ara phone, the exoskeleton, is only $15 to replace. So if they change that, you're looking at paying $15. With PCs, the base still costs $…

I used it and submitted bug reports to help the team find issues. I hate Windows but am forced to use it in certain cases. While Windows 8 touch is not huge, I would prefer to have…

+1. Stay far away from 1and1.com! I had the worst experiences with them of any tech company. Customer service doesn't get worse than them.

It should have worked on Firefox too but there's a bug

This worked on Chrome on Android (KitKat 4.4) but not on Firefox Beta for Android. Both correctly showed the microphone sharing notification, but on Firefox, no sound ever register…

I linked to an article that explains what it is and left it to you (the reader) to decide if it's good or bad. I believe it is a very bad thing.

Shadow DOM is a very, very bad idea. http://glazkov.com/2011/01/14/what-the-heck-is-shadow-dom/ It kills cross-browser compatibility, kills standards (since they're unreachable, un…

They're working on it: https://github.com/mozilla/persona-yahoo-bridge/issues/178 You should post your findings there

If only every browser implemented it...but IE 7,8,9 are stuck on the old APIs. They're a large percentage of all users.

That's not how flat ui design works. You can make single-color boxes and it won't look modern. Flat UI is about beautiful color palettes that are well matched and which convey the …

I got the feeling this post was really an attempt to get google to buy them out.

php.net allows users to post answers and examples of code throughout the website. Likely, one of the submission forms has/had a hole that allowed someone to submit or alter actual …

I'm surprised they weren't already using a threshold-scheme. (Similar to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_cryptosystem )

Assuming there's no known exploit. The NSA might know of an exploit for that algorithm.

It appears he didn't do that with a Samsung laptop but other machines in the past and someone replied saying it didn't fix it for them: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+b…

I don't understand why anyone's site is only in one datacenter. i thought the point of AWS was that it was distributed with fault tolerance? Why don't they distribute all the sites…

This is a great start!

He uses Windows so I assume he doesn't know much about Linux Distros. You're correct, Klipper was the first thing I thought of as well. I assume his OS experiences are: Mac, Window…

Couldn't get it to work in Firefox 16.

But the assertion only gets sent if the user logs in to persona first (with their email and persona password)

Persona doesn't require any browser integration. It works in all browsers that implement local storage. So it works via modern Javascript.

Right, but the email providers are only authenticating you to Persona. As far as the websites using Persona are concerned, it's persona.org that authenticates you. And the appeal t…
