It seems as if every single key press, whether or not it affects the output (for example, writing in a comment or hitting enter to reorganize and space out code) causes every single function to be evaluated again. You…
I don't know how the internet could easily transition out of this mess, but I think it would probably be good to eventually get rid of as many TLDs other than .com as possible. Does it add any real value to users to…
This filtering signal works both ways. While you do avoid some of the worst developers, you also reduce your chances of getting some of the better developers who will not likely waste time jumping through hoops unless…
In most cases, an unpaid internship is probably a bad idea. But individuals should be making that choice based on their unique set of circumstances and goals. Individuals should be free to make a choice whether or not…
Fuck landing pages that ask me for my email without giving me any info about what the app actually is.
* It goes without saying that a request for access to personal data like this is something that nobody should ever comply with. * Asking somebody for access to their email/social network account is actually a great…
This product you're shilling may or may not end up being some cool addicting thing. But asking for email addresses without explaining what the site is about is really lame and is a huge turnoff.
Wanting to change the world is a great thing. If you're already profitable, you're in a great position. But please don't dismiss somebody for being a bit focused on how your business will make money over the short or…
Depending on what you are doing, C might be a better choice than C++ and finding a good C developer might be easier for you.
Devoting such a significant percentage of your time and resources to what likely amounts to less than 1% of your users doesn't sound like a wise business decision in most circumstances.
It really depends on what you're interested in because there are a ton of neat things to check out in NYC, but often the most interesting and entertaining one is the Web Performance Meetup.…
I'm surprised that a community of internet entrepreneurs is so disinterested in advertising considering how many of your own sites are dependent on it. I actually like looking at ads. I like finding out about new…
The right choice depends on your target market and what your overall goals are. But my opinion is that for startups, the smartest way to utilize limited resources is to avoid supporting things like IE6 and users without…
Good overview, but it's important to keep in mind that there are definitely some very talented people at Microsoft that have their creativity and talents strangled to death by layers of horrible management. Reading some…
I've built both Firefox and Chrome extensions and would recommend starting with Chrome. Firefox currently has a larger market, but developing extensions in Chrome is MUCH easier and I would recommend that. But it…
Quality of life depends on what you value. If you value living space, you'll be happiest out of NYC. But if you value meeting a lot of cool people, great things to see and do, great mass transit, etc then NYC is great…
Why does TechCrunch act as if the random penises are a problem for ChatRoulette? That's what made the site super popular, got it referenced on mainstream television repeatedly, and made it ridiculously hysterical to…
I support Wikileaks. I support 100% free speech. These actions seem very counterproductive to me. * These attacks harm innocent people who are trying to log into PayPal to do their business. * It pushes people on the…
As nice sounding as rent-control is, you can't change economic law with the power of good intentions. When the price of some good is artificially capped below the market equilibrium price, a shortage always occurs. Rent…
You're free to boycott Amazon if you wish, but I think your expectations of Amazon are ridiculously high if you expect them to martyr their business prospects to make a political stand. What were they threatened with?…
It's interesting that the New York Times comments about that site are so negative merely because of the name. I am totally against fascism, but I think the name is clever and catchy.
Well, I agree with you. It is physically possible to be a fantastic web designer without knowing how to write any sort of code. But I have found that this combination of talents is extremely rare in practice. Generally…
You shouldn't need to know CSS to be a great web-designer if you know the strengths and weaknesses of the platform and the process for putting stuff together. But thats just the problem - most web-designers who don't…
Their campaign to try to equate internet access with a human right is unfortunate. It takes whats a very sensible overall idea that almost everybody agrees with (increasing the unhindered flow of information) and…
I bet a lot of people go in there to jerk off or have sex in public.
