Amazon should use it's bank to get these kinds of deals for Twitch.tv. They already have the platform, community, and infrastructure to do this kind of thing perfectly.

You can edit all of that with CartoCSS. OP made a great map, but Mapbox Studio really is ideal for a project like this. https://www.mapbox.com/guides/cartocss-in-studio/#studio

+1. There is literally zero negative impact on anyone's life by a hundred new js frameworks coming out every day. Ignore them. Use the ones you know and enjoy. If a new one seems to be gaining mainstream traction, spend an hour to chec

I regularly work with relatively large JSON files (500kb - 4mb). These open and edit quickly in ST. Atom refuses to load anything over 2mb, and chokes even on 500kb files.

It can be, but certainly not in this circumstance. Didn't expect such a politically charged article when I clicked the headline.

The best thing about this update might be that we finally get pull-to-refresh on the home feed.

Just updated, and I was able to send posts to users without the update. I believe it queues messages for when they update.

Yes, and most of those things are already available as modular open source tools that fit well in the Node ecosystem. Encouraging people to use one giant, closed, monolithic program for all of those purposes is not a good step forward for N

Seems like overkill. Part of why Node is great and so easy to get started with is that all you need is a browser, a text editor, and the terminal. I suppose for people that already use VS this is good, but maybe we should encourage them to

Ten dollars seems like a token amount that most clients would give you to just say, "Hey why not, maybe this will turn into something." I'd make it a higher amount or just, you know, genuinely ask them whether they would buy and use your pr

Another argument: Legislating that ISPs must treat all their bits as equal may cause ISPs to lose the flexibility needed to optimize their networks. Laws that inhibit freedom of private companies may look like a good solution to certain pro
