It asked me to login too.

AirBnB is in worse situation because few people are involved. On Kickstarter there are at least hundreds of people involved in average project so chances that someone will notice fraud are much higher.

There was interesting post about speeding up Eclipse recently: http://www.beyondlinux.com/blog/2011/06/25/speed-up-your-ecl...

I don't agree with first point. If someone told me to visit doctor I would feel offended and I don't think taking "happy" pills solves the problem. You should deal with source of depression not results and snapping out of it with support of someone close is good way to do it. Other points are really good advice though.

I'm using linode and I've had problems with payment once. They contacted me and we solved it within day or two. I don't know details of this story, but suspending account immediately seems like overreacting.

Google+ makes getting backup of all your data really easy (https://www.google.com/takeout/). I'm really worried about Google horror stories but I like using their services, so I'll just settle with doing regular backups.

I'm in similar situation: 9,780 words.

I knew general meaning of many words I didn't check, but I couldn’t exactly define them. I know that I will understand the meaning from the context when I see them in some sentence.

Thanks Bram, you made internet better place.

It's not a problem for IT students. I could choose from many offers in my city. At our forums we laugh from low paid offers and I haven't seen unpaid one. I ended up going to different country and earn 1,1k euro with no real experience at all and I extended it during crisis (it was few years ago) so I guess I was useful.

If you really can't find anything it's better to make nice portfolio projects for yourself at home or work on some opensource project. It's similar experience but feels much better than working as slave for some awful company that can't even afford small wage.

I'm at last 10 percent now, left with most boring parts and hardest to find bugs. This post motivated me to go back to work, thanks for that!

Why does it need facebook account?

Looks interesting, but unfortunately quality of video and audio is very low.

It's true, I've recenlty found some interesting open source projects while browsing Google Summer of Code accepted organizations.

Nice oldschool music. Where did you get it?

I recommend "Fair Game", it's related to this problem too.

Here is followup: http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2011/04/07/fo...

They are not dead, just less popular. Check out Gray Matter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_Matter_(video_game)) or 999 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/999:_Nine_Hours,_Nine_Persons,_...) - very good and recently released adventure games.

Interesting service. Anyone know something similar in Europe?

On Windows I recommend Code::Blocks (http://www.codeblocks.org )

They don't hide hotel name and usually you can google hotel website easily using that.

"We're sorry, but Topics on Search is not yet available for your language or country. Please check back later – we're working hard both to finish the feature and get it properly supported for all languages and locations." with English language and Worldwide as location.

http://slideme.org/ - app for it comes with CyanogenMod

I have unlocked N1 with Cyanogenmod and haven't noticed any problems with touch screen. I had G1 before and N1 is better, more sensitive.

I had similar problems with Google and Android here in Poland. I wanted to order Dev Phone 1, fortunately Poland was one of the countries that could do that, but I was shocked when I saw shipping costs: $ 235.65 total for 399$ phone. And of course we can't buy anything on Android Market. Fortunately there are other markets available with support for more countries.

Same problem with games. I bought Street Fighter IV to play online, but Windows Live doesn't support Poland. I coudn't believe it! Why are they selling me not working product? I had to make british Live! account in order to play online.

I can recommend Zamonia series by Walter Moers:

   The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear
   Rumo & His Miraculous Adventures
   The City of Dreaming Books

Awesome fantasy books.

"everything but Chrome" is incorrect. From article:

"Internet Explorer, Safari and Firefox. The one major Web browser left standing? Google Chrome"

"That said, I should also note that Pwn2Own didn't offer prizes for anyone beating up on other popular Web browsers such as Opera or the Linux operating system."
