It's not public for one - that's kind of a big one.

That manager advice sound horrible. That is the point of a manager. If you can't trust them with something as basic and important as team interactions, then there is a bigger problem.

I'd say this is a nice little cheatsheet. Which is useful at times, but I agree - this title is misleading. Edit: The far right has a key, and just below is a box that has a few undocumented items.

This is great for NHL viewers, but even better for GoPro - good to keep getting their name out there as the go to for amazing action footage wherever you are.

well, now that swell is shutting down it might make sense. But I'll miss the variety that I get from swell :( http://techcrunch.com/2014/07/28/apple-to-buy-swell-for-30-m...

They use statuspage.io, a great service, but most people use to manually set the times that the service was out - but I believe they have an API for that as well. So I think MailGun just didn't indicate the service was unavailable when

I haven't played with segment before, does anyone else have any experience with it? However, I am a huge believer in using one library/system to track events and use one system to ingest them. One quick note, I've found that

I've thought about doing something like this for a while, but on a more dynamic level. More along the lines of capturing check-ins from Facebook and Foursquare as well as other life events and making them available (with permission) vi

Well done guys! Having played with it early on, I can see that you've done a lot to make it even easier to use. I love the custom metrics too, we'll be looking at how we can incorporate some of our info into our page soon.

I disagree, it's about core competency. I have the resources to build and host a number of things. But I pay for quite a bit of software. Things like bug tracking, ticketing, billing, etc. - all because I want to focus on what I do best and

I've been playing around with this for a little while now and it seems like a great service for the status page itch. One that we weren't scratching very well in the past. I haven't even begun to dig into the API yet, but I've been happy wi

As a general idea of routing all traffic through one point, yes. However, as a marketing tool to track traffic, they are quite valuable. Sadly, optimal network routes and other considerations take a bake seat to making money.

We've blocked a few of the worst, but mostly just added servers to deal with the load. We actually found out who one of the worst ones was and contact them. It turns out it was a major legit proxy, but they had a bug in their proxy code tha

I only skimmed the original article, and I think this woman makes some great point about how absurd his article is. She has some good points about her experience, however, as she has only had 6 months in this field, and that is working in o

This is an old story (see the date of 1999?), as a WPI guy ive heard this one a few times The guy was attempting to use a cute little physics trick. I'm no physics major, but the idea is similar to walking on coals. You can have the liquid

We just started playing with this, it seems like a great alternative to backbone for those who want a bit more of the common stuff done for you (esp data binding). Backbone is a great starting point if you have strong opinions and want to o

I don't think that is necessarily true. Most modern programming languages, as well as the relative cheap nature of RAM, have rendered a true understanding of the inner workings of RAM less important. Would they be better at their job if the

My comment that I posted on the site: I don't disagree that having a big name on resume can be helpful. But I do think there are other things that should come into consideration. I worked at several no name startups right out of college. An

Hey all, Winning vs. Keeping is how I'm starting to look at features that we develop. It's something might help to balance expectations and demands from other groups within the company. I'd love to hear your thoughts, would this be helpful

This is probably also based on user study data. I actually took part in a user study where we had to play with about 10 different phone and tablet sized lucite rectangles. They all had numbered grids and you had to hold it different ways an

I'm biased, since I have run more than one shortener/tracker myself. This isn't meant to be a rant, more of a defense for the uninformed. It's a bit naive to think that most websites are referenced by a simple link to static content. The

I definitely agree with the comments here. I don't know one good developer who doesn't want to rewrite 50% of what they previously written. That rate always goes up to about %100 if it's written when they were anywhere near new to a languag
