He isn't messing with time in the game - he built a separate iPad app that allows the user to calibrate the time manually to that of the minecraft server.

Why does every one think they know better than Yahoo's CEO about how to manage Yahoo itself?

Github's extra features aren't all that useful to us though - certainly not worth the extra expense. And yes, I do know that rates should be increased and that even 200$ a month are a drop in the bucket to some startups - but not to all sta

Why should we pay 200$ a month though when there's a competitor with a far better plan?

What about a native iPad version?

Hi Robert, I hope you don't mind, but I've sent you my details too, haven't received any info, and it's been over 6 hours.

Same here, haven't received any form of acknowledgement.

Thanks for the answer - I thought it would be something like this. Taking 2 weeks off during the holiday period is a great thing to do!

What about support?

I'm on chrome 22.0.1229.94 (osx) and it's working fine for me.

Exactly, this was the point we were trying to make. In our case, we're a small team (<5), and have a lot of such projects - making our monthly cost closer to 30 to 50 a month. Compared to Bitbucket's cost of $0 for our case, it's defini

by LordIllidan 14y ago
You make a good point in that this could be absorbed as an implicit cost of a client project - but tell me again, why would we do this, when we can simply use BitBucket and create as many repositories as we like, without any problems whatso

A 100 times this. And not just the UK please! Actually, I'd be interested to know what are the main obstacles in launching this service internationally. Is it mainly bureaucracy and legal issues, or are there yet other considerations?

Over 20, and rapidly increasing - we create a repo for each new project. (consultancy) Sure these projects are not too big, and the team isn't too big either, but if hosted with Github, we'd be looking at soaring costs per month, or join re

by LordIllidan 14y ago
But it's not just $7. We are a small consulting company, with a lot of git repositories. Our total costs would be more in the range of $50 a month. That's what I am getting at. $7 a month is not all that expensive, you're right - but I am o

by LordIllidan 14y ago
It depends. I can see a lot of scope for small companies starting on Bitbucket to take advantage of the low costs, and then buying the larger plans as they expand.

You can fix bugs, customize the interface to your liking, stuff like this? It's basically another selling point, no? (Haven't tried it myself)

7$ a month for 5 private repos is not worth it all. I acknowledge that Github is a business but I am not about to pay a lot of money for hosting all my repositories, when I can do the same on Bitbucket for free. And when the team grows enou

I agree 100%. Github is superb for public projects, but for private projects it is overpriced.

Yes, both are using mechanical harddisks. I also use utilities like Alfred, etc... I can see how a fast SSD makes your system smoother. An SSD is my next desirable upgrade.. but a considerable expense seeing as I need at least 512GB (I dual

I am going to have to agree with Nicole060 here. I recently bought one of the new Macbook Pros for work - non retina, 4GB RAM. It became as slow as hell. I am a developer.. I need at least one VM with IE open, I need to have Chrome open, ph

I have an iPad 1 myself, and I am looking to replace it. Browsing - complex pages (techcrunch is one particular abomination) have a tendency to crash Safari. Chrome was far too slow to bother with. Old Twitter app was crashing several times

Well, I am Maltese myself, so it was a surprise to see another Maltese on hackernews. Props!

Are you by any chance Maltese, or do you have Maltese parents? Just deducing from your last name and the 8 pointed flag favicon for your blog.
