Well "Sherlock Holmes Debugging" may be redundant, since this is really just "debugging" (though who would have clicked on that link?), I was most excited by this line: > There is no sin in software engineering more s

Very neat! When I clicked around, it looks like a few of the places categories come back with all the places as "undefined". I got this for bakeries and food markets.

What should the solution to Level 19 be? I couldn't get anything with 'nth-last-child' to work for me.

The golf part is that you can only get the most points by writing the shortest regex possible. However, I think the game avoids just giving a score based on the number of characters. To do that, you would be required to match all on the lef

I was thinking the same thing. First one I saw was for the Eiffel Tower, which took 300 people 2 years, so that should actually show as 600 years, not 2.

Wouldn't that just be the one electron also leaking into the ground?

I find your streak particularly impressive, since it is all public contributions. The authors streak (as well as any, much shorter, streak that I have made) has always relied much more heavily on private repos for personal projects. I appre

Hmmm... Well you may want to actually put that on your website. And you probably want to be careful, since you've posted comments on here like "all the rest documentation can be found at Amazon S3 documentation site, it is basical

I was really thinking this was going to be a pretty lame list (which probably puts my in with the other people who have time suck issues). I was pleasantly surprised though. A few good recommendations. I especially appreciate the reminder t

I'm interested in where the database came from. Is this all manually compiled or pulled from a general source?

I was also impressed but concur that there seems to be significant loss when zoomed out. I'm not sure how they sample for the larger scales, but it seems very inaccurate.

I read that book as a child and loved it, but it is so hard to find a book named "Code" when that is all you remember. That link just made my day.

I would second a lot of what is said in here and add that I think being a part of a network of similar minded people (i.e. local programming/hacker club) can be just as beneficial as having one official mentor. It may not get you from

A lot of the anecdotes about incubators that I have heard (and I'm not familiar with StartupChile, so it may not apply at all there) is that a lot of time there is movement between ventures as ideas don't pan out and others need m
