Try bitsync for arbitrary directory syncing.

This reminds me a lot of windows live tiles, but in an app. I think the concept is great, but it would be better if this could somehow integrated into the lock screen.
comment
Which model is it? I remember the MacBooks and MacBook Pros that people use to smack to trigger actions. Developers figured out a way to take taking advantage of the motion sensor on the hard drive. …

FIPS 140-2 hardware encryption module - Generate your keys on an IronKey.

What freaked me out about this site is that I have the OSX Mavericks wave as my background and the gradient transition on the site is the exact same color scheme[1]. [1] - http://i.imgur.co…

I didn't know about those. The thing about !bang options is that you have to know something more about the problem to know the appropriate place to look--And that's the whole point of a sea…

I love DDG and I used it for 6 months but the problem I had is that when I was looking for things related to coding or Linux--it fell short. I would type in an error from Objective-c, Node.js, Java, …

Nice one.

> I agree, but the similarities are being pointed out precisely because Apple (and their major pundits like Marco and Gruber) makes a big deal about how others have borrowed ideas from them. That i…

That makes sense, but can't a CDN also help identify the DDoS and block communications from certain servers. I remember seeing a captcha on Adria Richards website after she got those two devs ki…

This looks awesome. I love the rotation, stacking, and the new icons. Keep continuing the innovation!

It says "Free to download and use" So how is that copyright infringement?
comment
Does GitHub use a CDN? It seems like that might help them with the DDoSing.
comment
I've been in some development environments where the GitHub master branch is what the build system pulls from in order to deploy to dev, staging and production. With that setup, it's more c…

I would say that it's a personal digital web library. You can basically organize all of your information you collect online into a searchable, sharable, resource. It's advanced bookmarking…

I've been playing around with iOS7 for a few hours and a lot of the issues could be addressed in the next 3 months. Someone should do a redesign like that guy did for the NSA slides[1]. I think…

All of the two letter g commands are getting taken :). This looks awesome; great work.
comment
Same. It's funny because after looking at the original slides, I immediately thought... "yeah these are legit"

That is true but there are 100's of resources to learn how to do Flat UI correctly. I tried to learn Flat UI a few months ago and I ran into a lot of the issues that I see in Apple's interf…

Yeh, I have a friend that went from a Lumia 920 to an S3 and then an HTC One and he want's to come back. I live in San Francisco so I get joked a lot about my phone until it's time to take …

The app ecosystem is the only thing that's really missing and I tell my friends; If I had Instagram and Googles ecosystem of apps, I'd be set.
comment
For the home user, this is fine, but one thing Apple forgot about (And they usually do) is the enterprise customer. If you're looking to replace your current setup of Mac Pros with these, how wo…
comment
That was my first thought. It looks like a first attempt by someone trying to learn Flat UI. For some reason, it just looks a bit to kludgy for me.
comment
I have one :). I will say that it's surprisingly a lot better than I thought it would be.
comment
That's what I was thinking. I've had WinMo8 for about 6 months and a lot of the interface reminded me of applications on my device. It was WinMo8 with a splash of Android. edit: And Apple m…

But Tim said he doesn't like copying.

Hopefully they got rid of whatever "Safari Web Content" was doing. That is the primary reason I don't use Safari.
comment
They have this at the Exploratorium! Definitely cool to play with.

It's a trap by the NSA!
