As I mentioned in my previous comment, it would be great to give some advice on how best to give feedback and have conversations in person. Any plans for that sort of thing?

Yup, respect, empathy and congruence. Be respectful, understand that it might be hard to hear your feedback and try and word it in the most direct way possible. I think i might be missing another thing, but I forget. Those three things will

It is a shame that so many people are unable to have conversations with their boss as adults, no matter how good/bad the feedback is. Email is never a good way to have difficult conversations. Too many wires get crossed and meaning is extra

Oh, I though it was going to be like 'a case for owning a raspberry pi'... most people I know have no idea what to do with theirs (although this probably say more about them).

This looks like it breaches Twitters rules of the road. Specifically items 1.D and 2.4.B. https://dev.twitter.com/terms/api-terms

Great thing. Although I don't think it is the best music to code by, especially as it just loops and loops! I made a similar 'remixer' in about 2003 for my university dissertation, although mine was networked so you could mix with a friend

True, but i'm not a designer and bootstrap makes it easier for me to get stuff done quickly by myself. Thanks for the feedback though

Also there are newer artist still wrecking shop with the amen such as Dub One and Nebula. Much more soulfull and heartfelt music than most drum and bass.

BBC radio one recently had a pretty good programme on the Amen: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b011nyd1 It is a shame that the true pioneers of the break were only briefly mentioned. They would be Equinox, Bizzy B, Breakage, Fracture and

As a semi-regular attendee at devnest since near it's inception I'm frankly quite shocked and appalled that Twitter would do this. It's great and very much welcomed that they participate, in fact it's one of the best reasons. But to want to

Wow, I bet Dominic has seen some good sales figures from that article! I bought the Impact library a couple of months ago and it's great :) ..yet to build anything worthwhile in it though :(

Interesting project. I built something like this using Flash and Colin Moock's Unity socket server for my university dissertation back in 2002. Although it used loops rather than individual hits, that would have been the next step. Amazing

We have open books at the agency I work for. Its pretty darn good to be honest. No one is over paid and no one is underpaid. We are paid what we and the rest of the company think we are worth. Simple. Well, kinda simple. When having an annu

Its obvious that we need shorteners, the original purpose being email but Twitter bucked that trend. So now, what we dont need is more URL shorteners. What we do need is more sites to implement their own shortening like YouTube and Flickr (
