I love the idea of the heartbeat feature. Is that a real feature of the iwatch?
Are there any OSS projects for building a database of metadata about software reuse assets?We're in a work environment with multiple revision control systems, and I'm looking for a way for the different groups to be aware of what the other groups have created.
Are you bothering to check openSSL versions for internal apps like:- revision control - wikis - tool installs like perl, python (because of LDAP authentication)Looking around it seems like Perforce and Subversion had heartbleed vulnerabilities for specific configurations.Looking through various LDAP plugins for different tools, they may use a version of openSSL that is vulnerable.Should we be...
I am uniquely identifiable out of the 3.7 million samples because of my system fonts.
It seems like it should be possible to have a box act as a web server proxy where it mirrors a web page to several displays.
It would be pretty slick if you could get a simple http proxy to support screen mirroring like this, because then it wouldn't matter what combination of set top box / phone / tablet you have... you could mirror anything.
It was really annoying when you went to pause, and instead turned netflix on.
There was also that xbox 360 dashboard update that downgraded the playback quality of avi files.
I've been having the same problem. I've configured it to stop scanning my Windows PC network shared and that seems to have fixed the "endlessly rebooting every 30 seconds" problem I was having... but I'm still having a problem where if I leave it on for over a day then it will lock up or lose internet connectivity.
My other big gripe is that when I use the menu to shutdown it just locks up the box instead of shutting down.
I've be consider giving the hacked boxeeplus firmware a try, but I haven't bothered because I know it's not supported either.
I find that's the biggest hurdle that average users can't grasp, it's not about one website getting hacked.. it's that if your ubisoft password is the same as your email address password then they can now log into your email address, which means they can probably take over every online account you have.
The content here varies from philosophy to poetry to programming to prosaic FAQ. It is everything I felt worth writing for the past few years that didn’t fit somewhere like Wikipedia or was already written - "…I realised that I wanted to read about them what I myself knew. More than this - what only I knew. Deprived of this possibility, I decided to write about them. Hence this book."2 I never expected to write so much, but I discovered that once I had a hammer, nails were everywhere, and that supply creates its own demand3. I believe that someone who has been well-educated will think of something worth writing at least once a week; to a surprising extent, this has been true. (I have added ~130 documents to this repository over the past 3 years.)
It shows several stories at once, not just the google brainteasers stories.
2. In general, people would rather read the real article instead of a summary of the article. When someone submits a summary of an article to a site like HN or reddit, it is usually flagged as blog-spam because we'd rather read/support the original content than a summary with questionable value.
3. For long form articles, nothing beats reading the print-preview page to get rid of all the sidebars, comments, ads. Look at the print preview page: it is not possible to get less distraction free than that. Any other format has more distractions.
Even aside from that, the New York Times has some of the best information architecture in the business. These are the guys who did NYTProf. Their web team is awesome.

4. Some visual issues I had with quartz:
4.1: No left/right whitespace around images.
4.2: I see a vertical scroll bar in the middle of my screen on Firefox.
4.3 The black header bar which is fixed and stays on the screen all the time even though it conveys no useful information to me.
4.4: A bunch of text blurbs on the left side of the screen that convey no useful information to me.
You say you're trying to be as distraction free as possible, but that's not actually true because it isn't possible to have your business model and be as distraction free as possible. The print preview page is as distraction free as possible.

I'd start off with Use of Weapons or the Player of Games
Leave your computer on the task you are working on and you won't "lose" the result in a sea of windows.
Actually, it's a great habit to use a different machine for surfing the net than the one you use for developing. Then you are very conscious that you aren't working when you are on your "other" machine.
I'm almost envious sometimes of secure locations that limit internet access to a single room rather than allowing it to be on every desktop.
There was some great stuff on there. He stopped blogging in 2008 but it's archived.
