I've been building an app using Express over the past 9 months and this gives me pause. It seems like IBM wants to have its cake and eat it too. Should be interesting to see how it all plays out, but is building an app on Express a lia

I discovered you on HN several years ago and have been following your progress ever since. You are an inspiration to do-it-yourselfers everywhere. Rooting for you man!

I maintain that I never received an email from them. Not in spam or otherwise.

I have a friend who is a restaurant owner. From what i've heard, their business model is to display the worst reviews and then try to extort the business owner in order to display better ones. They wanted something to the tune of sever

The music labels will never have to 'realize' this because, short of a cultural revolution, it will always make the most money. I'm a musician, I am very picky about the music I listen to. My wife? Not quite as picky. She wil

I feel compelled to post how this was the defining game of my youth. It was the ultimate video game experience in my child brain. I was enamored for years. I wanted to be Ness. My very first website was a GeoCities page, an ode to this game

Nothing happened to it. It gets used by front-end developers every single day. I personally can't follow the CSS complaints. It is easier to learn than any other front-end dev language in one's toolkit.

I used to struggle with motivation. Especially at your age (I'm about to 30). Motivation is a byproduct of discipline. You need to integrate some kind of discipline in your life. Something huge that changed my work ethic was when I bou
