Well, depends on your warranty. I know that even on apple products, if the battery capacity goes below half withing the first year (maybe 2?), they'll replace it. Not sure how apple care improves on this.

I feel like there's too much focus towards preserving the life of batteries that to be honest are cheap and easy to replace. While I feel the important aspect is to just make sure you will have enough battery for the next segment of time you won't have a charger.

+2. Ha! Take that.

True story. It always amazes me how some people are so adamant about avoiding overcharging their phone or starting a charge before the "cycle" ends that they end up not having battery when they need it the most.

I'll go ahead and flip that around. If they can't find a way to open a docx file, they probably aren't that interested in you and you probably don't want to work for them anyways.

A good rule I've found for lithium ion batteries is: are you going to keep it for longer than two years? If not, worry more about always having a good charge when you need it, rather than the overall life of the battery.

This seems like a horrible, horrible idea that only Samsung could think of.

Every single feature breaks my current workflow. I don not think of any of them as an improvement. I habitually have a zillion windows open, and the Windows 7 Taskbar actually works wonders for it as is.

Working late doesn't mean you are trying to mean deadlines... Necessarily. You could be working on going the extra mile and delivering more than you were asked to, because you like your work and want to achieve great things. Not everyone likes to just do the bare minimum.

For those of us who do actually do something they love for a living, this was a refreshing article. If you ate unhappy with your work, I'm sorry buddy, but then the article just doesn't apply to you, and that that.

Well, it was October 19th in our hearts.

Yep, it's on Hulu.

You know, during last week's episode of Community, Abed said something that really struck me, and I'm paraphrasing here: "Don't be afraid of the future. After all, the present you're clinging to was once the future"

Plus it's probably just a mistranslation from Portuguese.

I didn't say kids knew how to use them, I said they'd be easier to use than a Raspberry Pi. I played around with both, and there is SO MUCH MORE MATERIAL to learn how to do things with the Arduino.

And Arduino might be better for a kid, IMO.

*clap* *clap*

Contracts. They could find advertisers that would agree to those terms. They'd find some, just not many.

Yeah, I'd maybe agree there. Because picking up one penny isn't actually cutting down my productivity time in a perceivable way. But spending half an hour to pick up 200 would.

Imagine what you could've bought if you spent all that time working.
