朋友打算创业，找我聊了几次。他虽然不是技术出身，但也在网游业界混过几年，所以也很相信技术改变世界。今天他找我聊说起“云计算”，瞬间我就震精了。我劝告他说不要去炒这些概念，这些东西不是创业公司炒得起的东西，老老实实用最简单的技术做出东�

Magic Mouse のマルチタッチ機能をカスタマイズできる「BetterTouchTool (BTT)」の対応ジェスチャーが増え過ぎて試行錯誤中・・・。 by Abro

I don’t normally do negative posts about another person or company, but I feel this needs to get out there.  A few hours ago I received an email from MediaTemple, where I host several of my clients.  It was an automated message informing me that:

SANTIAGO, Nov 25 (IPS) - More than 500 Chilean women have been killed by their partners, ex-partners or strangers since 2001. This year alone, there have been 52 "femicides", economist Gloria Maira said on Wednesday, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

Virtual machines can seem juuuuust a bit too geeky for most otherwise computer-friendly people. That's sad, because it's an easy, free way to try or use a separate OS without messing with your hard drive.

Invitar amigos a un wave público; Arrastra desde tu inbox el wave a la ventana donde esten tus amigos y se le linkeará. Para que sirve el MUTE?? o como desmutear? El botón MUTE, es muy gráfico... sirve para "callar" un Wave, es decir, ya no recibiremos en la bandeja de entrada ninguna notificación de contenido (blips) nuevo. Para quitarle el ...

In the Web 2.0 world, an important mark of your popularity is how many external developers are monkeying about with your APIs, creating spin-off services and applications.

Having spent a bit of time learning how the transaction log in drizzle works (and it is incredibly easy to work with), I got an idea to use RabbitMQ as a transport. RabbitMQ is an implementation of the AMQP standard in Erlang, so it must be awesome.

These are my thoughts as a 2007 Stanford GSB grad after sitting on a career panel at The Columbia Graduate School of Business. Let me know what you think.

US scientists are testing a radical new theory that multiple sclerosis (MS) is caused by blockages in the veins that drain the brain. The University of Buffalo team were intrigued by the work of Italian researcher Dr Paolo Zamboni who claims 90% of MS is caused by narrowed veins.

If you spent Thanksgiving slaving over a hot stove, you might be glad to know that researchers are developing some robotic kitchen assistants that could someday do the hard work for you.

Google Docs has officially thrown open their data doors, allowing users to back up all their documents to whatever formats they choose and compressed into a ZIP file. It's serious peace of mind for those concerned about the cloud.

Json is a lightweight data-interchange format, says the official website. Think XML but with a format that's easier for both people and javascript interpreters to parse. Here's an easy way to serialize Core Data models into json.

Disclosure is a good thing. Early disclosure of thorny issues is a very good thing (such as, "I am embroiled in a legal dispute with my co-founder over ownership of the company and here is why"). That does NOT mean, however, that you should be totally transparent during fundraising.

Let them demonstrate. Any good lesson has a demonstration period. Let's get all of them underwater and show us how to breathe underwater. We'll stand by and supervise.

Now that the fridge is packed with Thanksgiving leftovers and the radio is broadcasting hourly traffic reports for mall parking lots, it’s time to start thinking about the pending holiday season and the big H.C. That’s right: Holiday Cards.

I have been working on more JavaScript this year. Most recently, I improved the speed of the Drupal API autocomplete. I am now working on Drupal.org’s new dashboard and an annotation tool.

Cómo muchos sabreis ya, hace poco se presentó la preview de lo que será Google Wave, que si ya vivisteis desde el principio el crecimiento de Gmail tendréis vista suficiente para ver que va a cambiar la forma en que vemos la web hoy en día.

That’s it, really. Whether we are designing a Web app or new office building, simply ask: Who are the people we are designing for? What is the activity (or activities) they are trying to do? And what are the contexts in which they are trying to operate? And ‘people’ can be an individual or group. It’s that simple. On the surface…

By the way, this basic idea came from (and was authorized for distribution by) a Yale University grad who routinely got between a B+ and an A+ by handing in his FIRST DRAFTS, despite being a relentless procrastinator and starting his papers the night before they were due. It works.

Abstract: Giving students direct experience with the writing contexts and demands they will soon face as professionals focuses their attention on learning as much as possible from a required writing course.

Dubai is finally financially bankrupt – but it has been morally bankrupt all along. The idea that Dubai is an oasis of freedom on the Arabian peninsular is one of the great lies of our time.

Food-wise, Thanksgiving is different across the country. In some places you're going to get a lot of chitterlings and collard greens, while in others, turkey and mashed potatoes. Personally, I'm a big fan of the 10-course Chinese feast, but to each his own.

This report on the conference in Manchester on November 3, on “Media Ecologies for Post-Industrial Production” should have been published 3 weeks ago, but got an erroneous draft status.
