I was able to bypass the modal by going directly to the account setting page: https://www.glassdoor.com/member/profile/accountSettings

From there you can at least deactivate your account, not sure what other pages are also accessible without going through the modal.

I had a pretty similar experience with the Nike FuelBand I bought. I haven't had any hardware problems, but I couldn't get over the feeling of having a hard plastic wristband on all the time. The value just wasn't there to offset that. Now it just sits on the charger on my desk, not doing much of anything. These days I mostly just use the Moves app on my phone which gives me the number of steps I walked and total distance, which is all I really care about anyway. It'll take a really integrated/seamless experience to get me to try another band.

Assume the channel delivering the token is email. Then to login you provide your user ID or email, identifying who you are, they immediately email you a token (or link containing the token) to login with.

It is great that it's all going to charity, and as you said, kudos to Origin for that. I just don't like the direction Humble is going. I want them to be a place I can go to find interesting Indie games I might not have heard of before.

This doesn't feel like a Humble Bundle to me. I loved Humble for spotlighting great Indie games. If I want cheap older triple-A titles I'll buy them during a steam sale.

The best replacement I found was to host my own instance of Kolab 3[1] which was a pain to setup, but seems to work pretty well and looks nice. I couldn't find any good hosted solutions though.

One other thing I would add is to check on different variations of Android (stock, HTC's Sense, Samsung's TouchWiz, etc..) as well as resolutions, since they have different default widget styles and colors that can affect your app in different ways. (Android 4 is much better about this with Holo, but anything before it can vary a lot.)

You rock. This is crazy useful for trying out styles on stuff i'm building. I'd echo one of the suggestions here, there needs to be a way to apply to non-body elements.

In Chrome: 1. Tools -> Extensions 2. Enable "Developer Mode" 3. "Load Unpacked Extension" and select the directory you cloned into.

That logo reminds me of the first time I figured out how to make gradients in Photoshop. It wasn't good then, and it isn't good now.

I wonder what other data the seller has. It seems likely that you could get more valuable data from the users of these facebook apps since people tend to says yes when apps ask for permission to access data.

It's interesting to see SQL injection techniques reworked to attack Mongo, but not really surprising. Not following good coding practices is going to cause problems regardless the language. Nosql, SSJS and the like won't protect you from yourself if you don't sanitize user input.

I suspect at this point, everyone who currently owns an iOS device and wants Angry Birds has it. Their sales are mostly to new iOS device owners while new games can sell to everyone.

The only regular use I ever have for QR codes is loading a long page url I'm looking at on my desktop to my phone. I keep a chrome plugin installed so I can click a button for a QR code. Beyond that, I'm not going to some random link encoded in a QR code.

Nothing is ever a new idea, it's all about implementation and marketing. It will be interesting to see how git-annex assistant compares to the other products linked here when it's finished.

You just have to add a clause to the TOS, nobody reads it anyway so you could grant yourself a licence to do anything with their email!

There's a difference between a rip-off and a site that's 'inspired by' another. svbtle is definitely inspired by drawar, but it's much more refined. wp-svbtle is just a plain copy, there's no originality to it.

They run every few minutes, it feels kind of random. But they have a very nasty habit of running right at critical moments during the games.

This looks fantastic. I've been using a similar (but less complete) css3 less file in some of my projects. It's nice to have a more complete one available.

I would reccomend also taking a look at this border-radius mixin: http://tech.matchfwd.com/a-better-border-radius-mixin-in-les... it's quite well done using guard statements to allow more fine-grain control.

It seems unlikely to me that the business types will do much serious programming; after all that's not what job is. I suspect the real value of this will be improved communication on technical subjects. It's much easier to work with someone (like an engineer) when you have a common baseline and can appreciate the work they're doing. It's also a fantastic learning opportunity for the engineers, since teaching/mentoring people on a topic is one of the best ways to improve your knowledge of it.

public-key cryptography only solves computer-computer interactions. It does nothing to help me authenticate with my computer.

I always thought that the problem with openID is they didn't use email addresses instead of URLs. e.g. use [email protected] and require a certain url template for the endpoint e.g. example.com/openid/john

That way I don't have to remember another identifier and we already trust at least part of our identity to our email provider. Not perhaps as open, but much more approachable as a user.
