Yes, that's what I used to do too. But then I received several emails for each booking, for updates, rebookings, seats, check-in invitations, and it was getting hard to track the current state of my booking. So I went to "Manage m

I know this may seem obvious to most Silicon Valley people, but here in Belgium, it's really hard to find software engineers ready to get away from the usual jobs in big companies and into startups. Here are some of the reasons that ma

I'm sorry but the point still stands: excellent idea but the price gap is way too big with themeforest themes compared to the benefits. 50 bucks is the max I would set aside for this, and I consider it to be a lot.

Also, encryption is all about maths, so there are hundreds of ways to do just about anything, different parameters, different algorithms with different tradeoffs about speed, performance, resistance to attacks, data bandwidth, etc. etc. So

I've been using Parse with great pleasure as well for a couple of months and I really want to keep using it because their API is really beautiful and their design is absolutely gorgeous. But the past event that worries me is the acquisition

When you have used the technology and seen with your own eyes the amount of time and effort it saves you when developing a mobile app, $85M really seems very cheap, especially when you compare it to how much they paid for an Instagram for e

Awesome stuff! Now the next step is to integrate that with AngularJS and it will be perfect for my current project :P

Your model is excellent. I love it. It's simple, it looks good, and contrary to what others said, you actually have a pretty innovative business model with the possibility to sell crowdsourced designs. But if I were you, I'd make it more in

No but in some countries, architects can get sued if buildings they designed endanger lives or something like that. I think it's the case in Canada, isn't it? In some countries, engineering is a regulated profession in the same way as medic

In the case of tech books, I think it has more to do with ever changing technologies. And if that's the case, then we need a new breed of tech books that can evolve with technologies, be updated in parallel with the technology it covers. An

Sorry about the popups. I was trying a new Sociable plugin and I hadn't noticed it messed up the mobile view. Thanks for noticing, it's fixed now.

I so needed this service. When I heard the news they were acquired by Facebook, I knew it would come to that. It's really a shame. Facebook is starting to worry me. If they start to buy and digest every innovative service out there, thus pr

Yet another step towards massive adoption of Groovy as an alternative to Ruby and JS for startups. I can't wait to try this out with Vert.x and hopefully get away with never doing JS on the server.

That is probably one of the stupidest studies I've read about in years. Along with the scientific confirmation that yes, the fact that penguins and hens can't fly might have something to do with their wing size to weight ratio, and the amaz

Sorry but the IP legislation is way different in Europe (where I live for now) from what it is in the US. In Europe, you can't patent software for example. And regarding business models, I didn't know it was already possible and I assumed i

It's really a shame that Groovy is not even in this list. It's understandable as it is very poorly marketed, but it is really a shame that it is not mentioned more, especially on such a forum. For entrepreneurs, it has so many advantages. A
