Didn't you just learn that your idea is worth nothing...it's all about execution.

Even if you would print it in large letters on a time square billboard for everyone to read that wouldn't make a real difference to not telling anyone.
Nor prevent someone else of the roughly 7 billion people on this planet to draw the…

Are there more resources?

Years ago (before the dawn of the web 2.0) I programmed websites for fun. This was right before HTML5 and CSS3. Flash was still around and I basically learned to code (html, php, javascript) in any editor by hand and tested on different browsers.

Due to college, work and other obligations I…

Careful with the seemingly "low tuitions"...some apply only for students from within the EU.

While we are at it...keep the stove as far away from the fridge and freezer as possible, while arranging your kitchen, to not waste energy.

To be honest...they don't advertise it as an "start from scratch" learning app, like duolingo or memrise.
Over the course of my education I learned French, Spanish, Russian, Swedish and German. I always wanted to have a list of my most frequented words in all those languages, as I tend to forget unused vocabulary quite…

Separate work and private E-Mail...literally use different accounts.
And if you can't live without your private mails use different devices...bring you own tablet / smartphone for private stuff and don't hook them up to the office-network at all and under no circumstances.

If you stumble upon porn content while doing…

This.

It might be weird but I peel my eggs in the sink with running water. I just roll them gently between my palms to crush the shell and then rinse off the pieces while slightly rubbing with my thumbs. The water doesn't considerably moisten the boiled egg and you make sure the whole shell is removed. :)

I limit myself to consuming video or audio books only when...
a) on the spinning bike in the gym or
b) in transit (includes walking and grocery shopping) or
c) doing chores, such as laundry or cleaning.
I basically run around all day with my in-ear headphones tucked in my shirt.

I got my large ebook collection on my NAS (world wide remote access if I am in real need) and a selection of books that I want to read (usually around 12) in my Dropbox. (The same goes with audiobooks by the way.)
I use DropSync to synchronize the folders on my Android-powered Nook Simple Touch GlowLight and on my…

It's not dimmable and you won't be able to comfortably set the alarm from your phone...I personally would not want to climb under my bed (where the nearest outlet is) to set and arm the alarm.

No, you can not...what I am talking about is beyond the user's influence.

well...you better start thinking with portals...

Exactly this! I am managing around 10-12 accounts with various aliases. Half of them are corporate generic ones others my private ones, which carry a specific name tag. It's just too bothersome to do on the web.

Sparrow was awesome. But since minor issues started to occur to me since Mavericks I switched to Airmail.…

To be honest...AdBlock hast lost it's credibility as they used their market power to force advertisers into paying to be white listet. So AdBlock doesn't block ads and webtracker reliable enough. Well at least it blocks those, who can't afford to pay...

Ain't nobody got time for that...

Regarding the iPad 2:
There are rumors that there were contracts with suppliers for non-retina screens that had to be fulfilled. Because every Generation successing, had "retina" screens.
And apparently the informed "early-adopter" consumer would have never bought the iPad 2, but the informed "average Joe" wouldn't be…

Well at any point he could shove those cards into a scanner and import them into evernote (or any other tool).

I'm not that bad at typing on my phone. Actually I've gotten way better since I am using SwiftKey as a replacement keyboard. It is a huge help...according to those keyboard's stats it saves me up to 1/3 of my strokes and has corrected over 80.000 words for me.
So I really miss this feature.

I noticed quite often that I…

PS: sorry for all the typos...typed it really rushed and apparently my auto-correct went bonkers with some "...(')s". mea culpa.
