As a professional musician, every very few years you sit down and you write new songs and record an album. But then you have to go on tour to make money and engage your fanbase and demonstrate what you've learned and finessed in a way

What is the evolutionary value of killing the host (potentially) before transmission can occur? I’d have thought the sweet spot is weak enough to minimise fatality/maximise accidental transmission while strong enough to ensure minimal

Really well executed - well done. I was surprised and impressed with the output of my first search. One feature request: the ability to save common journeys. I take Uber(x) from home to the office frequently; if I could easily compare other

What is the extent of this outage? There isn't much info on Twitter or elsewhere. The Azure service status dashboard shows an issue impacting "Storage [South Central US]". Is that service like S3 or EBS or something entirely different?

Please come to San Francisco! I would jump on this immediately. I hate the idea of trying to find, screen and co-ordinate someone to clean my apartment regularly. I've tried TaskRabbit for this, but I find the whole engagement cycle awkward

Your site correctly identified my browser as Chrome for iPhone. OP's site detected it as Safari on OS/2. Kudos. Perhaps you could share some insights on why this might be.

The extent to which having a four-year US degree equivalent will assist this young man in getting an H1-B visa cannot be exaggerated. It's possible without it, but, AFAIK, it then becomes a non-standard process which will require quite a b

I'm actually feeling physically uncomfortable trying to decipher their website. It's making me nervous and frustrated. I just want to know what the user experience is for making a payment. Do they have to pull out a credit card? Create an a

I used to attach video to bug reports occasionally. All the developers on my team hated it. They forced me to stop. They found it slower than scanning through text and didn't like the lack of copy + paste ability. Also I think they liked th

Yes, primarily because I wouldn't need multiple content subscription sources any more (HBO, Hulu, Netflix). Obviously I'm making some assumptions about how such a system would work, but I'd rather pick and choose content than pick and choos

Same situation here. I'd love to know if this is ever coming to Apps accounts.

ARGH! I just confirmed this. So disappointed. I've changed it now to be completely unique but I wouldn't be surprised if it's logged somewhere.

I've used NewRelic quite a bit in the past, but only in production. I never really though of using it in dev. It would be good if there was a browser plugin or something to give immediate feedback about the most request that loaded the curr

Can anyone recommend a rails utility with similar functionality / UI ?

Absolutely agree. It's quite funny, when you google something like "jQuery lightbox plugin", you will actually see (spammy) results like "30 Efficient jQuery Lightbox Plugins", as if for some reason I need to know about 30 different plugins

It took me a while to figure out that the way to close a split is ^Wc Probably because I'm not a huge vim user, and was only previously aware of the :q syntax you mentioned.

First impressions are extremely positive. Is there a mailing list or anything yet? I would love to provide feedback and in return be able to follow the development progress.

I absolutely understand. I'm not a marketing person either, but I have some experience in usability research, and I think you will get as much value from testing the homepage with a few fresh faces as you would from a marketing project. The

At the corporates I've worked at, this product would have been preemptively blocked anyway because it relies on an outbound ssh connection through the external firewall, which wouldn't have been allowed. I'm not sure if that's standard prac

It's not obvious by looking at the pagekite homepage what the product does. Lots of focus on the benefits, but as a developer, I'd rather just know what it does and how to use it I would even suggest taking inspiration from the clearly

Lol @ "they actually like talking to people more than pushing to github" I consider myself to fit in this category. I've always been a hobbyist programmer, but it is my damned penchant for humans over social code hosting platforms that has

What does the dongle thingy feel like when youre using it? I've never seen one IRL, but all I can think about when I see the photos is that it would spin around, be awkward to use, and maybe even wear out the headphone jack. Any comments f

Is it because to justify shipping the browser pre-installed (to regulators), they have to 'tightly integrate' the web browser runtime available in the OS with the browser itself?

Getting a good grasp of RVM is the most important tool in this respect. It serves a similar purpose to virtualenv and in some respects pip because it also integrates rubygems. It also helps to have a decent grasp of git, you'll be using it

You can't do better than mhartls book followed by The Rspec Book (Prag prog) to fully grok this concept. You'll have an "a-ha" moment at some point. I'm by no means an expert but feel free to hit me up and I'll see if I can help: dev@evan.c

So I tried flux for about three weeks and it didn't really seem to affect me. Reading/working by candle at night actually helped me more, though still not a lot. I'm experimenting with one of these right now: http://www.amazon.com/Philips-

Oh man I forgot about this! Baddest-Assed. Feature. Ever. I just did it on my girlfriend's machine while she was out of the room. Don't worry, I'll probably revert it for her soon enough.
