I'm surprised that the Pepsi Challenge thing isn't more obvious to people. I mean, hasn't everyone experienced this themselves when it comes to those "healthier" versions of snack foods? First bag: "Hey, these

I have to say, the little yellow "Ad" badge actually jumps out at me a lot more clearly than the colored background. It doesn't seem like that should be the case, but I felt my eyes hitting the Ad badges and more easily fil

Go to local meetups. You'll see the supply and demand play out right in front of you. How many employers are there, and how big of a group of potential employees are they talking to?

Rsync looks awesome, but having to run the rsync-auto command separately looks like it will be a drag. There needs to be a plugin that will run rsync-auto automatically on vagrant up/resume, and terminate it on vagrant halt/suspen

Source Code Pro looked good when I saw it in webpage images, but when I switched my iTerm2 to it, it looked very... stumpy. Have not tried it in Linux yet. But DejaVu is the only font yet that I've found satisfying on both Mac and Linu

The relative terseness and readability of Ruby code makes it so that turning to reading the source code is often favored over a lot of documentation. It would be a bit more difficult to operate in the same way in a Java environment. That sa

When your focus is sufficiently narrow, minor variations look like massive shifts, and perspective suffers. Thurrott seems to look at the computing world through a magnifying glass pointed squarely at MS, overreacting to every little shift

I'm of the same mind. I switched from the iPhone to Android because I was dissatisfied with the tiny iPhone screens, but I expected a quality drop-off in apps. The drop-off, in the instances where it does exist, is not nearly as dramat

The initial job post, to me, was very clearly written to scare some people off, in an attempt to reduce the tidal wave of responses down to a mere flood. If that flood of respondents doesn't treat their skills (or their life) as having

I saw a great picture from a slide deck. It had a picture of Batman labeled, "Your Application". Then on the next slide, it added an arrow pointing at Batman's utility belt, and labeled it "Redis".

Gmail undo is basically job cancellation, not really returning a changed state back to its original state. Gmail can't "undo" once that job has been processed - in other words, when something has been actually done .
