Did Microsoft hit the "jump the shark" moment with holograms?
I have an MIS degree, and generally, you're correct. They're light on technology, though I did learn some basics. I already knew a lot of that already, though... what I learned the most from were the Accounting,…
Personally, I always use either an auto-incremented ID or a GUID. I don't like using a real value of the object as a key. Generally, I think it's good practice, but you're right... I'd index off of that.
Best line from the write-up: It combined three of my passions: running, photography, and getting attention. Great design!
Other cities have similar characters, I'm sure. Memphis has Prince Mongo [http://www.1045theriver.com/pages/7337724.php?] I grew up in Memphis. Prince Mongo had a nightclub that was the place to go for high school kids.…
Interesting to compare the Partnership for American Innovation with this list: http://www.bloomberg.com/infographics/2014-03-12/offshore-pr... And, Apple and Microsoft have previously funded patent trolls (IV). And IBM…
It's a bit difficult where I am (semi-rural)... busy roads, no sidewalks, dogs without leashes (pitbull attacks are too frequent). But, I do the same with running. I drive to nearby trails most every day. And for the…
Those arguments should only affect the damages, not the finding of infringement.
Exactly. And I think it's a potentially valid argument (without knowing all the details about the case). But, not knowing about a patent, or saying you didn't copy from a non-existent (or existing) implementation of it,…
I think that's kind of the point...
I guess I don't understand the significant advantage this would provide. You can accomplish some of the same functionality with other control flow libraries. Also, I could see the future declaration, with potentially…
I just see it as removing a layer of complexity... I don't really care for having PayPal functionality, and not having to worry about the monthly fee paid to you makes it easier on me and you. You get paid quickly, and…
Great job! I'll definitely be giving this a shot! Quick question, though... Do you use Stripe's Connect API for the 50 cent transaction fee you're taking (application_fee)?
Would be nice if they decided that cashflow forecasting (Microsoft Money and Quicken Online both did that well-ish) was important to add. That's the single reason I haven't gone with Mint.
I think the issue comes across pretty clearly in the initial conversations. If you're dealing with a client looking for the cheapest possible website, he's going to force the issue of price early on. If you're dealing…
I have both RamNode and Digital Ocean servers in production. In terms of performance and cost, both are great. I haven't ever had any issues with Digital Ocean. With RamNode, they've had a couple of issues where there's…
Seems to be a theme. I had to re-do our TeamCity integration when they stripped out the IIS Path property out of the project file in favor of publishing profiles. For a shop like ours, where we have lots of small…
Obviously that's not sustainable... but even the 60 hour version sounds pretty rough to me. Without a wife and kids, maybe. But I think if I tried this I wouldn't have to worry about a wife and kids anymore. Am I the…
A few NSA.gov.cn addresses too...
Best piece of tech satire in a long time.

Groupon was offered about $6 billion by Google in 2010. Groupon turned them down, thinking they were worth more and then went the IPO route. Now, in late 2013, Groupon has a market cap of $6.8 billion. Moral of the…
Exceptional? How about "A decent phone at a decent price."

I've had pretty good success with Cloud9's IDE. I like that it's SSH based... I can secure it reasonably well and run any terminal command I need. It has decent code completion (at least for Node), a nice file tree…
