    A richer spouse maybe, but I wouldn't give a hoot if I was making almost all the money in a partnership. I hope most people wouldn't either.

    Benevolent? I would call that worse than a normal authoritarian society, as they at least knows what is going on.

    I would assume that teachers would need your bingo cards time and time again - they keep having classes to play word bingo with. Have you A/B tested a subscription model.

    My touch is often, and it also runs apps from the app store. I won't be installing this tool though, since almost all the interesting pages on the web are split between multiple pa…

    Sometimes I wonder how much more I would get done if I didn't have the internet, but I would properly just have a clean apartment.

    What do you need a couple millions to start that? There are plenty of people who could pitch in, wikipedia style, the vids can be hosted on youtube and once you outgrow one server …

    Have you seen the needle on a sewing machine? Yeah, you need to thread that as well.

    I don't buy that. To me, you want to lose weight eat less and in particular eat less of that which contains the most energy seems very reasonable. To the point where people who cla…

    Only if somebody build a anti-anti-shelving filter. I get enough offers from various places that I don't like as it is.

    It is cheaper for me to fly Aalborg-Copenhagen than it is to take the train. I don't see this as a cost cutting meassure. It would also be a major annoyance to have to go through c…

    No shutting it indeed. The Danish child porn filter these days also filter access to gambling sites that haven't paid a fee to get a license from the government.

    Personally I love Win 7, mostly because I can find any program I want by pressing the win key and then the name of the program. Programs I use often is just a [win]+numerical click…

    Empathy with a security guard working for a big corporation, harassing people? What good is that going to do? Making his life a living hell on the other hand, will cause the next i…

    Yes, but there are ways to do that without assuming the risk. Ever wonder what those "work from home" offers really ask you to do?

    That was my assumption too. But the HTML5 that runs on the IPods/IPhones and properly also the iPads are really, really powerful. Powerful enough that they can run as stand-alone p…

    They can't. I have seen so many people come up with we need to change this or that so that my backers can get money they don't deserve. Governments are huge idiots who constantly g…

    That reminds me of a sucky, sucky introduction book to C++ I once brought. The only thing worth remembering was the introduction dedication. It read: "To all the children of the tw…

    Real weight lifting for hackers would be if you found a way to do it in second life, or outsource it (while still getting most of the benefits). Actually doing it, is something eve…
