    You can exit a code block by hitting Command Option Shift C. I found this out by hovering over the code block icon in the bar below the editor box. The trick seems to be to add a b…

    Here's the real question: Did the kid think he was being persistent and that eventually he'd be able to play his games again, or did he think guessing the password _was_ the game?

    If I read the article correctly, this wasn't about building a new 'Google campus' (i.e. a huge building to house a large number of Google employees as their main regional HQ). This…

    Also, wow: However, Facebook’s formal guidance is 24 to 48 posts per day. Facebook recommends 24-48 posts PER DAY? Surely this is an error. Where is this recommended? That's insane…
