There has been discussion from time to time about the time of posting affecting HN responsiveness... sometimes a good post will die for lack of interest during a down time. The hn4d.com site provides a bit of insight into when the activity

As someone who uses ruby for the sheer joy of it (and finds ObjC a bit clunky), I want to be more excited about this. I am just not seeing the benefit yet. Ruby syntax is nice, not having autocomplete available is a problem, especially sinc

It is pretty clear that when there is more activity (specifically on the "new page"), a site is more likely to be upvoted. It's one of the reasons I built http://hn4d.com/ (but this currently is only tracking the main page). The challeng

Hmmm - fair enough... besides free public and private repos they appear to have an educational plan as well. http://www.atlassian.com/software/views/bitbucket-academic-l...

That is a great offering. It is an excellent idea to have students using standard "best practices" for their software projects, and will help teachers organize the review of these assignments. Thank you github.

It depends on your intended audience. Although I appreciate the sentiment of learning programming languages by solving practical problems (rather than reading overly abstract descriptions) I don't expect there to be a major change in the w

An Oracle DBA pointed out to me years ago that MySQL performed better under certain circumstances. It seems like PostGres does a pretty good job keeping up with Oracle features and is much more open and customizable. I am sure PostGres ex

Definitely agree. The place where ruby syntax might shine a bit is in code that does not interact with the Cocoa/IOs specific libraries (e.g. doing calculation, parsing/manipulating strings).

Gradesquare ( http://gradesquare.com/ ) was launched with the idea that folks would want to plan and track their (perhaps diverse or fragmented) online learning experiences. I tend to think about learning in two different categories: 1) Le

Yeah, that route could work... but it is a bigger investment in time to learn another language/development environment in greater depth. At least part of the appeal for PhoneGap and other third party tools is that devs are trying to avoid

Great post. Having dabbled in mobile dev (and spent lots of time in web development), I always want to leverage my existing skills rather than learn new languages/dev techniques if possible. Still, a hammer - no matter how useful - is no

Obviously, some tech/startup news items get covered by the big media sites, but the number of these - often several covering the same story - don't even meet the qualification of being a primary source.

Definitely think it helps. The individual, personal interaction portrayed in the videos is more engaging than flashing images and text in front of students. His diagrams are clear enough, so little would be gained by using prefab charts o
