We've started using Elixir in our Erlang application and it's been a pleasure to work with. Everyone in my office agrees they would've loved to have this when they started with Erlang.

Can someone explain how this is 4k? Apple's Thunderbolt Display has a resolution of 2560x1440 [1] and ASUS' PB287Q also has 2560x1440 according to Amazon [2]. What am I missing? UPDATE: I transposed digits and looked at the PB278Q

I tried BTSync and was blown away by how much faster sync in general and especially LAN sync was. I guess Bittorrent Inc. knows how to properly transfer files.

I guess the most well-known case is HSBC laundering drug money. Do you know any "real consequences" for employees that resulted of it?

Been using Elixir for a new project and it's really nice. For me it's not so much about bringing a nicer syntax to Erlang (Erlang's syntax is very nice once you get used to it, except for single assignment IMO. I'd prefe

As of now (21:04 UTC) this isn't fixed in Debian https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2014-0160 nor Ubuntu http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2014/CVE-20...

BSON actually was considered as the JSON storage format for PostgreSQL, but was discarded once people figured out that BSON stores ["a", "b", "c"] as {0: "a", 1: "b", 2: "c"} which

Rails already has support for Postgres' json type, I don't doubt that they'll add jsonb support asap.

Yeah I have to second BitTorrent Sync. It really shows that they have experience transferring big files over the internet (via P2P). With Dropbox I often only get 100-300 kb/s upload, BitTorrent Sync maxes out my connection. Download i

First off Sorry, I didn't want to imply that there's any animosity or conflict between Chef/Puppet and Docker. I don't think there is any? Also I completely agree that data migrations are tricky, that's why I need a

Can you explain that further? I don't get it at all. No application is that simple. You need services that persist between deployments. Like a database. So you make the database run in it's own container and have the containers ta

This has the potential to be awesome. Looks like a Windows RT-ready stripped-down MS Access. Something that allows e.g. sales people to create fancy presentations slash catalogues. I'm not on the Windows platform and have no need to mo

So what happened to refinements? They were given a warning in 2.0 because the other implementations warned that implementing refinements would lead to worse performance. Has that been fixed?

I wonder what the reverse click-through rate was. When you watched a video that was a response to another video, YouTube showed "This is a video response to ______" I personally used that a few times, unlike video responses which

I hope this doesn't mean that Feedbin isn't making (enough) money. I've been using Feedbin (+ Mr. Reader on the iPad) and it's been great. I'd hate for the service to close, even if I can host it myself, I'd ra

Go looks like a really nice language, but then I discovered that they don't _want_ to have exceptions. Crazy. I'm sticking with Erlang, "Let It Crash" (and handle the crash) is better than "add if(err) after everyth

Have you considered supporting cloud sync? It should be possible to make it secure and it would be a huge convenience.

I just signed up and this is the best Reader replacement I've seen so far. Someone actually thought through what an evolution of Reader should be. It can subscribe to non-RSS pages like Facebook public pages or Google+ pages. If the fe

Of course they could provide the service. They still provide Backpack for existing customers. They just don't want to because they don't care.

Of course, still I think the common meaning of "forever" is closer to "until 37signals doesn't exist any more" than "until 37signals decides they don't like it any more". In any case I think we can agree that "forever" is longer than Januar

I believe the number of customers necessary for reaching "critical mass" is different for Google than for 37signals than for a new SaaS company that just started out. Also Breeze had customers (that paid for it) while Google Reader had user

Because it was sold as "just pay once and get your mailing list", not as "just pay once and get your mailing list for a few months then no more mailing list"

Wasn't Breeze sold as "Pay once - use forever"? It's a joke that they now just cop out via "yeah we'll refund your money". Compare this to Backpack that was also discontinued but since it's paid for monthly, 37signals decided to let existin
