I can fully recommend it too. Now I shudder whenever I have to use phpmyadmin.

Follow up, I just saw the cookie disclaimer the other day and I'm in the uk

Regardless of what you're searching for, it is a really nice site and very functional. Yes all other torrent sites are hideous and full of horrible spammy adverts pretending to be download buttons (so I'm told), but this one is nice and clean, has a gorgeous UI, and makes great use of movie art in the design.

Save meetings for Friday afternoon catchup. No-one works well on Friday afternoons

Are you in the UK? Maybe they don't use cookies for uk users as we aren't shown adverts since we pay via the license fee.

Your kid wants the latest toy- download the design and print. Christmas retail supply issues sorted.

Hopefully in the future, the basic 3d printer will go beyond plastics and allow printing from some hardier durable material (nanotubes maybe), then you'll be able to pretty much download a design and print anything.

Why not just use a cup more than once during the day without washing? I go through at least 7 cups of coffee a day in a single mug; only washing that's done is just before the first of the day.

Practically useless for web design as the large majority or sites are tall, not wide.

Can't remember what the shortcut is (been on the mac bandwagon for 5 years) but it definitely works in XP as I was doing that for years. Maybe File > New Window or something like that.

"Looking for free, reliable cloud storage?Dropbox offers 2GB, while SugarSync gives you 5GB. "

I would rather pay a very measly $5 a month for 50GB for the reliability that the company I use has a stable business model and is likely to be around in 2 years time.

Get the hacker news app. It gives a very nice view of HN, plus you can send stuff to Instapaper for reading later.

Dude, don't worry - the 8 years experienced guys were in the exact same position 7.7 years ago!

I've just hired a new developer and he's forever apologising for 'taking so long'. I just try to reassure him that I know he's learning, and that's good - I want him to question what he's doing and does take the time to solve problems correctly.

90% of the programming problems I personally come up against, I've seen before and so I know the answer near instantly; but thats just through years of experience. Take the time to enjoy what you do and you'll begin to appreciate that you're getting the time to learn as you work, and don't hesitate to ask the experienced guys for a hand; they'll love the fact that they're the gurus.

"Die Hard" - best Christmas movie ever!

Badly worded title, should be "How to learn Ruby on Rails for $150". The author points out that it rightfully takes months of your time as well so depending what monetary number you value your time at, you could be very misled into thinking its better to do this than hire a professional.

"The team behind the finding in September that neutrinos may travel faster than light has carried out an improved version of their experiment - and found the same result."

There goes physics as we know it!

+2 for UK

Don't websites have to state in the meta tags that chrome frame is to be utilised for it? I don't think it generally applies for all sites.

Having an online presence is very important as an accompaniment to a CV. I always google job applicants that I receive. If I don't find anything, I am disappointed and tend to file those applicants with the ones where I find their fully open Facebook profile showing what that person did with a stripper at their mates stag party. LinkedIn provides a good fill for the void of wanting to fully lock down your Facebook profile.

These people weren't fighting any 'system' or for any cause. They plainly saw an opportunity to steal, vandalise and ruin the lives of many hard-working, law-abiding citizens, under the so called 'protection' of the mob.

Hopefully this hard justice will serve as a warning that this simply will not be tolerated in our civil society. If anything, it actually emphasises how lenient the court system normally is, and I firmly believe that sentencing should always be this strict.
