"We track over 400,000 searches representing almost 50,000,000 results. "
Really? Where do you get this data? Apple is certainly not making it available (for obvious reasons).

jscore | 14 years ago | on: Galaxy Nexus Power Analysis: Why chargers can't keep up with navigation
I've had the original Nexus, Nexus One, Nexus S and wanted to buy the G Nexus but if google/samsung are willing to put a device that can't function under normal operating environment, then they shouldn't have done at it all.
See, with the iPhone (4S), I know Apple would never put out a device like this. It might not have things like a notification LED that blinks when u have a message, but the thing is bullet proof -- it just works.
The mentality is certainly different. I want a finished product, and not be a beta tester for a company.
It's no accident Apple sticks to their time-proven design: small 3.5" screen, no LTE, etc.
And as I get more busy with my life (business, etc), I could careless about the "openness" of the Android platform--it's not like I'll be compiling ROMs all day.
I just want something that works and won't let me down in the 11th hour and with Apple I know that won't happen.

jscore | 14 years ago | on: Is Godaddy delaying domain transfer requests?
Now, when I do a whois it's showing as registered to eNom (I was xferring to namecheap) and then showing domain not found.
On namecheap's side it's showing as pending - not action required from me.
Anyone seen similar behavior?

1. You finished this blog post, so you know how to finish things.
2. Turn off all mindless distractions for a month or more (fb, twitter, forums, even hn) so you can figure out something important that you can focus on. You've read enough and don't need to keep reading more motivational material.
3. Start a small project and finish it. This would help you to convince yourself that you can complete shit.
4. Use that feedback loop to continue building bigger projects.
5. Life IS really that short so learn to live in the moment (I've been there but am getting a bit better with this).

I wonder if he'd be still doing this if there was no Facebook.
The only reason I keep Facebook is because it's easy to contact people when I need to get a hold of someone that I met five years ago while traveling or something.
But even so, I'm beginning to question the logic behind having a million acquaintances "just in case"
My close friends are on Skype anyway, so FB seems to have less meaning with each passing day.

The truth is they couldn't care less; they're a preferred point for e-transactions on eBay and elsewhere.
It's back when you wanted an iPhone but hated AT&T, they knew you couldn't get an iPhone with another provider, so they didn't give two shits about their crappy service and customer care.
