  1. Re:30 years of journalism experience in 30 seconds on In the Unverified Digital World, Are Journalists and Bloggers Equal? · · Score: 1

    Every time you write something that you strongly believe, always call somebody on the other side to find out why they disagree with you

    While both sides of the story are indeed important, too often they are treated equally by the journalist despite one side's point being clearly stronger or more relevant. News organizations today have a tendency to neutralize stories so far that they fail to capture what's important for the reader.

    Not every story is balanced, nor should they be.

  2. Re:Better Alternative on Gift Idea: Custom Photomosaics With AndreaMosaic and PhotoGrabber · · Score: 1

    If you mean "the author got bribed", do you have any reason for believing that's true? Don't you think positive reviews can "just happen"?

    You're right about my unsubstantiated summary of the article, but you have to admit that it feels more like a pinterest post than a slashdot article.

  3. Better Alternative on Gift Idea: Custom Photomosaics With AndreaMosaic and PhotoGrabber · · Score: 2

    This story just seems like a blatant ad...

    But since it's here, a well-reviewed alternative is Photo Mosaica for iPhone/iPad. I have a poster on the wall of my living room that was made using it, and it looks great.

  4. Not bad, but... on Passcodes Prove Predictable · · Score: 1

    1 in 7's not bad, but from my experience as an iOS developer in a large company, the current year (or last year) works 2/3 of the time. A 4-digit passcode is not security, its a minor deterrent to your friends using your phone to post embarrassing things in your accounts.
