What can't be solved by software (or marketing?), someone will solve with hardware[0]! [0]: http://adafruit.com/qtpy

The most poignant and human part of his retelling, was the stranger's smile while he was waiting in the car. That is what made him start moving away from the darkness. It's such a …

Is it really TCP though? Was each packet ACKnowledged? Would it be more UDP if any were dropped? Might also be a touch of SMTP, or maybe NSSMTP (No So SMTP)!

A 24-hour conference with well known and lesser-known, all high-quality speakers from around the world, on a variety of technology topics, as a fund-raiser for Direct Relief, helpi…

Of course not. "Friday" isn't universal. Clearly, `-f` is the "Finally" flag

Fortunately, I still get to see a banner advertising their streaming music service, or to watch the World Series through Youtube. Nice to see their ad-service platform isn't impact…

Sounds a lot like the work done by William Ury, whose works can be found online (TED talks, Yoytube copies of some talks, his book "Getting to Yes"). That is, listening, and HEARIN…

It is, particularly since there is a) a premium price on the rental (3-5x last I checked) for that one day b) rental windows are shrunk (3-4 hours max is typical) and c) rentals ar…

I've often wondered, especially as I cringe, clench and brace as I encounter another pothole (or chasm) why this is still an issue? Particularly since there are very well known and…

While shopping the toy section at Target a few weeks ago, in the science/educational section, I came across a few variations of a "//code programming game series"[0] by Thinkfun[1]…

There was a great "external observer" type account in a BBC article [0] a short while back. Granted it wasn't fully impartial, given the author is the mother and addict her daughte…

There were two major standout points to me in the article. The first was that the main engines (SSMEs) were replaced so that the originals could be used for the next generation sys…

Great advice on your point to not beat yourself up at slip ups. I was also advised to learn to forgive myself (it's seriously much more difficult than it sounds). Also, major kudos…

Article seems to state they got a vehicle wrap for it. Probably not part of the 4000$ rental, but can't imagine it being more than maybe 1000$ to "print"? Random large-ish dollar a…

4.47$ shipping, and it's not even next day? Pass! /s

Oh really? I thought those were just little balls of lint and fabric. Now I feel like a jerk.

Am I the only one who interpreted the title as breaking a contract with the Philadelphia Flyers hockey team?

I've also seen similar (LCD based shelf tags) at Whole Foods in Plano, TX, for the better part of the last decade.

Feedly. From all the trials and searches I've done as a former Google Reader devotee, it's the closest to it from interaction perspective, but much MUCH better with integrations, i…

Agreed. I've tried nearly a dozen readers (online) during the frenzied Google Reader shutdown frenzy. Felt like the smoothest transition, fullest feature set and fairly straightfor…

For me, the difference between keyboard shortcuts, and command line interface for that matter is that the same operation can be done semi-autonomously with the emphasis being on th…
