I see your point. I don't really want to be in the shoes of the coding experts. And with the quantity of accidents in our country and in the world, it could be a real possibility that a future car would need to choose between...

@Curt, I agree. Great piece. I was surprised that the main use at first of the laptops had been the facilitation of grading. I can remember when desktops were first introduced into my elementary school wayyyy back, and then,...

David, it's not even that Goodell wants to keep up appearances. He wants to keep milking the cash cow as quickly and furiously as possible, at ever-increasing rates. Although there have been fires raging across the league...

Curt as a parent myself I have no technology backlash just the opposite I want more! I have seen backlash from some educators but I think that is based on adapting to something new with little or no training. I will...

For something truly meta, you could play one of the Sims games and manage the indoor lives of people as if *they're* snuck in a snowstorm, finding things to do.

I agree forgot has become my standard since so many of the password standards are maddening one particular company has actually driven me to my phone to pay my bill because it is so maddening!

@vnewman2: It's been made into a book, too!

I can't even remember the last time I remembered one of my particular passwords -- let alone what the password itself is (or, for that matter, ever was). Now I just don't do anything on that website anymore because...
In reply to: Re: Password standards
True. But I take my time. I game rarely -- because otherwise, I game too much and I wouldn't get any work done.

Dave thansks for the snowmaggedon games recommendations, my daughter will love the Frozen game while school is out-- I will just be working even if it is by candlelight with my remote battery sources! Now wouldn't it be...

A couple of problems with the performance enhancement mania (to include the home run chase) were that it distorted the records (the season home run record in particular will be tainted until it is broken), and was definitely...

@Technocrati - I agree with you completely. I don't like to mix business with pleasure and I don't want my social media to try to do so either. And I think it is all the more aggrevating because the lines are...

Well, I was a freshman physics major at Stony Brook while LBJ was finishing his presidency, and you can guess that no one bemoans the fact that we don't have any serious ambitions off-earth more than I do. The one massively...

"Drones, here for good but perhaps not as common as you think." That verdict may hold, especially after the FAA, FBI and CIA review how a government employee was able to let a drone slip out of control and crash onto the...

The use of what seems like a good, modern idea, using a cloud data center as your backup site registers 14% using such a technique extensively, 21% using it in a limited fashion. That's a little less than I would have expected,...

People spend time playing games. People spend time watching TV. To that extent, it is worthwhile having long discussions about everything and anything. I am not interested in a discussion based on the premise that we cannot...

@vnewman2- Somehow I missed this comment until now. That is worse than asking for a Red Rider BB Gun and being told you would shoot your eye out. I think that might be the most tragic Christmas story ever told. I'm seriously...

InformationWeek Tech Digest, Dec. 9, 2014Apps will make or break the tablet as a work device, but don't shortchange critical factors related to hardware, security, peripherals, and integration.
Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
