He's not too smart is he? Married in CA right when the money starts rolling in. HALF! I hope he has a good prenup.

Never was a real fan of Twitter, BUT since they've opened up all their cool open source projects, I'm their biggest fan!

#3 I'm not undestanding. Are you doing async? I don't know the socket API but it should be something like this: it("should wait for socket", function(done) { socket.write("asdfadf", function(err, response) { assert.ok(response.indexOf

These are getting a little stale. Vapor.js was amusing when it came out. It's like they say, you're beating a dead horse.

Being one of those idiots who went all in with MongoDB with our startup, I can relate. NoSQL should really be called NoDB. There will come a point where you ask, "Dude, where is my database?" Riak looks interesting but its overkill. They re

Sorry, I have to disagree about chiclet keyboards and I consider myself a keyboard Connoisseur and a touch typist. I own a couple of vintage IBM Model M keyboards, a Northgate, a Filco ... I've grown fond of the Apple Keyboards and my bette

And I have used it in a previous project. I'm not questioning the quality of the driver. My point is the inconsistency of the driver API vs the syntax used in the `mongo` utility. I don't know how many times I've looked at the MongoDB docs

Too bad they didn't provide a node.js API closer to the mongo command line utility. See https://github.com/marcello3d/node-mongolian.git . The official driver is modeled after Ruby API.

That seems to be pretty good odds. What percentage of startups actually succeed? I'm in the wrong app business.

I use my own migration utility using `psql < 01-up.sql`. Too obvious really. Yes Rails does all that for you automagically but you can use a lightweight ORM like FastLegS. A model is as simple as this: UserDao = FastLegs.Base.extend({

Setting unicode, changing backspace, setting xterm-256 as the TERM variable, etc ... PuTTy configuration is unintuitive when you first try to configure it. There's a well known page dedicated to configuring PuTTy properly on Windows.

FYI, seems to work me. I was able to connect to my server in VMware.

Windows! I spend most of my time coding in PuTTy + Vim when I'm on windows. In my limited testing this works as I expect with xterm-256, tmux, and Vim on my Ubuntu 12.04 Server without having to configure anything. PuTTy is a pain to config

But why? I'm not loyal to Dropbox. Competition is good for the rest of us. I get 25GB free from SkyDrive. I hope the others follow suit.

Confusing. It says upgrade to 25GB for less than $2.50/month then it says 20GB for $5.00/year. You would think with Google's budget they would have some person read the front page and the pricing page.

I would be happy if they added high resolution/retina displays on the 13" MBP which I still prefer over the air for the simple reason I can replace the SSD and memory.

Interesting, I just did a grid layout in Twitter's Bootstrap framework and thumbnails look exactly like that. Looks like Bootstrap thumbnails is a Reform Revolution clone :) Oh wait, this reminds me of Polaroids ...

Wow, downvoted for posting info related to a professor who was held in nazi concentration camp and kept his mind lucid with math? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachtenberg_system

Professor Trachtenberg (early 1900) comes to mind for doing speed math.

Two things that transcend trends. White space + good typography. Colors are an accent.

Hmmm looks like Zune. I'll argue it's one the best pieces of software to come out of Microsoft. Too bad MS just killed.

The new icon is worse. It doen't look like a key. I only figured that out after reading the article. It's not square made worse by the perspective. The other alternatives look much better.

I still dont get who would use grove? IRC users aren't exactly looking for a client replacement. Existing IRC clients just work, like Craiglist. Colloquy on the Mac, etc.

I was bummed `await` and `defer` was not merged in. However, after thinking about it, the same result can be had using a good async library. The code is self-documenting if you choose good property names. . follow = (from, to, cb) ->

It shouldn't matter what the generated code is. Use gitattributes to ignore diffs on generated folders.

Vim is great but learning requires a good investment of time. If somebody tells you, you can be as productive as with your current editor in a few weeks, don't believe it. If all you need is notepad or gEdit, Vim is not worth the debt. Spe

This is very surprising. Node is not mature yet and the guy with "the vision" is stepping down. Makes you wonder if node is heading in a direction different than Ryan envisioned and it's no longer a labor of love.
