If there's a benefit to putting comments at the end, why not remove the comments entirely in the production version (i.e. minification)?

iTunes Connect remained up, but developers couldn't create new App IDs for a while, so if you were uploading new apps (as I was) you had to wait until that particular portion of the developer portal was back.

Do you have to jump right away? You could, for example, work up your skills in development by doing freelance projects on the side while keeping your current job. I recommend guru.com as a decent marketplace for this. You'll have to

The annoying thing to me is that the text itself is all lowercase, while they could have done the same thing, reversibly, in CSS, with text-transform: lowercase.

A judge isn't stupid. They'll see through any trickery that has the result of disclosing the NSL. If you have to lie to avoid disclosing, the law requires that you lie.

My first advice as a Canada to US immigrant is, don't attempt to come down on a visitor visa or visa waiver (i.e. visa-less entry) and get work. It sounds like this would be obvious to you based on your question, but so many people th

I'm not sure that such a clause would work here. The example legal clause in your link: "This Contract contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Contract. The contract supersedes any

I work at a startup with even fewer people than yours (we currently have three developers in total), and if anything, the idea that you shouldn't stay late unless necessary has been pushed. It's definitely not usual (and I woul

Technically true, but if you say no, and they later somehow find out about it, they will say you were misrepresenting yourself to USCIS and ban you from the country for life. This is not hyperbole; that's the response that misrepresentatio

FWIW, USCIS insists on all of its forms that you must tell them if you've ever been charged or convicted of a crime, even if your record was sealed or you were pardoned.

One of the nice goodwill things I liked about Steam was that when I registered my original copy of Half-Life, they gave me all the extension packs for free. Might have been because they couldn't tell by the CD key whether I had just Half-L

"Oh hey! You know we could just give it all back." Because I don't like part of a company, I have to avoid using any other part of that company? Or if I don't, I can't complain about the part of the company I don't like? I don't subscribe

I use a different background color for the terminal in question; in this case, I use a dark red to signify a production system, and a dark blue to signify a development system. I find it quite useful. You can do this through Xterm profile

Personally I would recommend Guru.com instead of Freelancer; I've worked with a few of those sites and Guru seemed to be the most professional. Also, if you're worried about being paid, use the site's escrow system (Guru has one, I believe

My wife runs a teen drop-in center. Believe me, sometimes the teacher (and any other decent adults in the kid's life) is the only way that kid is going to get any intellectual stimulation whatsoever. Sometimes the parents are useless.
