I've read this story before, and often think about how if people don't have examples in life these 'epiphanies' are hard to come by. Non-fictional heroes may get more attention with the access to knowledge we have nowada

Good for you making an app to scratch your own itch! Pardon being negative when I know you are sharing some of your self with the world by showing HN. I don't even mind the runtime tomfoolery, but it's disingenuous to say "A

Vaporware at the moment, but keep an eye out for Github's https://github.com/boxen which purports to do similar with Puppet. Demo'd here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlKXRdSAZhY While I'm linking up stuff, another take on masterless

Absolutely, similar-looking ruby, too. I was disheartened by the wheel reinvention, but to each his own.

As a premise for a blog post this isn't a particularly veiled attempt at armchair quarterbacking twitter, and closing with 'k, now go follow me everybody!' clangs instead of adding to the argument. I guess people who use this reasoning as t

I can't really reconcile the hope in this argument that apple could enable/allow more constructive and innovative business models to flourish... with the(at this point) unconvincing menace it's being to itself and others. I don't see the s

Total conjecture, but 3 ways come to mind: De-duplication, compression, and hierarchical storage management. Keep less-frequently accessed parts of the data 'Nearline', and snapshot the lower-demand, older data slightly less often. Continu

From one presumably in the know, that would lend (to a suspicious individual like myself) credence to the theory that.. a future version of the OS will definitely be 64-bit by default. 2 times smaller? I wish I had the math chops to comput

Pardon me pointing out the difference between a plug-in and a web framework. Believe you me, this is a headache, but you have the right to your own opinion, not your own facts.

I really do like the idea of positively "completing" a task every day. Outliers-wise 10,000 hours is a lot, the sooner I get started the better. The only thing I'd add, besides the request for OpenID love, is that the FAQ needs to put "we

The webOS dock-ribbon you can pull up from the gesture area in any card app would be another interface paradigm Apple or a third party could implement. I'm sure HP will blow the iPad experience out of the water with their tablet... #sda
