Good location... I'd start visiting tech meetups, show up at coding competitions in your area and network, search linkedin.com for qualified peeps in your area and invite them to lunch...

In complete agreement. I'm not advocating that such customization is better, clearly it opens up support issues that Apple will not have. I'm simply saying that it's refreshing for me to have the option to customize and personalize, rathe

Agreed. It's not just about the screen size though. The iPhone keeps you lock-stepped in a fixed user interface that you really have zero control over. Android, and especially versions 4.0+, allow virtually unlimited customization of the en

Yep, that's true, and I haven't developed on my Mac since then. I've been using LinuxMint 12, an Ubuntu-centric distribution. Good eye, Turing. Good eye! :)

Apple just lost an iPhone customer (or 4)..

While it's unlikely as it would spell the demise of the manufacturer/brand if made public, yes. If the manufacturer installed VNC and connected out to a remote server when you came online, yes, this could happen. You could use WireShark on

Just gave up my iPhone yesterday. Switched to an HTC One X (Dual core 1.5Ghz, Android Ice Cream Sammich, 4.7" screen.. UNREAL). Buh bye Apple.

Where's the news about the idiot VP of HR, the one who didn't vet him properly, being fired? Yahoo! is a doomed company, much like AOL was.

First, stop looking for a "better" design. Functional design is a much better goal. It's better to launch an ugly site and make it better over time (or not, see Craig's List) than to never launch the site at all. As a developer, I found th

I can personally attest to this. 25 years of software development has blown my L5 disc, causing unbelievable pain and sciatica-like symptoms.

Who in the world would buy a $1000 laptop with Intel's 3000 series graphics chipset? If this is supposed to compete with the MacBook Air, Dell completely missed the boat, especially with a $799 air coming out within the next 3 months (oops,

I don't get it... there's no content, and it requires me to sign up, just to search? I would suggest you add some sample content that is publicly viewable. When you go to Pinterest, you Pinstantly know what the site does. :)

Two dead companies do not make a live one... SonicWall lost their edge 5 years ago, and now they compete with the likes of Pfsense and M0n0Wall. As a former SonicWall customer, I MUCH prefer PfSense to their products, and the price is MUC

I'd offer a commission to the producer of the traffic, based on conversion after beta. Anyone can generate traffic, and even signups to a free beta. Getting users that are qualified AND interested that will convert to paid accounts is very

I agree.. the page is hideous. I personally would never consider using this service. Two things I would recommend.. a) visit themeforest.net and buy a theme, apply it, and add lots of screenshots. Here's one I like from MojoThemes (not af

I would suggest running your own half rack or full rack at a local colo facility, and integrate amazon or azure into your external scaling strategy using APIs to spin up instances on an as-needed basis. You should always be in control of yo

Try Python with Django. All the benefits of ROR, many fewer headaches. Not knocking ROR, just saying I've been down this road and what I found was Python/Django was ultimately exactly what I was looking for. Cheers!

Well, for me, it's readability and maintainability. I find Ruby unreadable, and if I want to hire a programmer, it's easier to take a Perl, PHP, or even C# developer and teach them Python than it is to teach them Ruby, at least from my expe

Both. Amazon has a habit of going down when you least expect it, and while the outages aren't usually system wide, you want an off-site backup site that can handle some percentage of the traffic, even if it's just a "we'll be right back"
