   This is way less of a competitor to Amazon then it is to Shopify. Shopify just got a new direct competitor.

   I imagine they'll give up once they realize all the steam behind AngularJS won't easily transfer over to Dart.

   Does anyone know if companies view soft-eng grads vs. compsci grads from uw differently? The school says it's the same, but I'm hoping to hear some first hand experience. Asking as a prospective undergrad next year :)

   I don't understand the whole 'don't host in US'-thing. It doesn't make sense. The NSA/US gov made it clear that they have WAY less regard for foreign privacy vs. US privacy. If all major services move their dat

   I think that was a layman way of explaining the technology rather then how you actually feel.

   Don't forget the difference between possessing mountains of documents and having the right documents on your desk.

   I stand corrected, my apologies. I simply assumed that it was Misko's side project (by assuming, I mean made an ass of myself). I'm going to pay more attention next time they talk about its history to see if they actively attempt

   Some of these are very nice, will definitely use them in my next project, thanks!

   Where'd you get the wrong idea that it was a Startup? AngualrJS was a side project of Misko, who was working at Google on the DoubleClick team, until he bet he could rewrite DoubleClick in 1 or 2 (can't remember) weeks using his f

    At first in my mind it's 'Oh, another javascript particle effect' and then I try the demo and it becomes 'holy shit, this is amazing' Amazing job!

    I agree. Just like LanceH said, it's bad form to get caught, but in all honesty, this is the NSA's job. To gather forgien intelligence.

    That was very fair response. Kudos for being able to attack the points, not the person.

    This could be part of Google's Project Loon. Instead of building a data center in Africa why not ship one over.

    This a million times. To continue the analogy: Only with experience will the driver know approximately how long the drive should take. Read about the traffic all you want, but until you drive there multiple times, try not to give a set arri

    I think the distinction Bluedevil is trying to make is you're going into this SaaS app with no intention of it being hugely profitable or successful. You're scratching an itch and if other people decide to pay you to help scratch

    I think we're getting pretty close to figure it out in the world of node with npm.

    Lets disregard the age of the article for one moment. I think that the author is making a good point, developers oversimplify applications and when they begin to work it turns out that it's a hundred times more complicated then initial

    Great Article, HATE the title. I think it gives the wrong impression. The title should be: How we tripled our revenue by understanding our users better Yes by adding a button you tripled your revenue, but what you really did was underst

    How isn't Apple afraid that Samsung could steal their chip designs? Do they pick Samsung because they simply have no other option?

    That's a very biased argument. Just as people searching for a washer on Google are more likely to click on a washer ad, people looking at the #Astronomer stream are more likely to buy a telescope. That's not the perfect comparison

    Finally a web framework I can use. All the Java web frameworks I tried to use are way too enterprise-y.

    Kind of reminds me of the Windows tablet being way before the iPad, yet the iPad blowing it out of the water. Microsoft had all these great ideas, but failed to execute. It really reinforces the 'ideas without good execution are worthl

    I noticed the 'do things that don't scale' actions like delivering a trophy with cookies to the 10k user or writing personalized emails to every new customer.
