What would be interesting to see would be merged vs. open vs. closed (as in rejected), and also the typical delay between the opening of the PR and the merging/closing. Some projects are fast to close PRs if they don't fit their goals, some

I often present it this way: - when you join a company as an engineer, the best case scenario is probably something like 1%. - a pretty good case scenario would be for a company to be bought in the $100M range. Say, $250M? You'll have cases

As mason55 said, a bonus will typically be reduced a lot when paid out (so that a $5k bonus ends up being more around $2.5k in your bank account), but in the end, when you do your tax return, you're taxed the same rate on your salary than o

I haven't been able to play with it too much yet, but I liked what I've seen. The interface is very clean and well done for a launch version. I typically like to do more and more things in a terminal rather than in a GUI or web interface, e

I believe that you can transfer them right away without losing any time on your lease. Meaning if you have 6 months before a domain expires and transfer it to a new registrar and pay for a year, you'll have a year and a half before it expir

the fee may actually be lower than the difference in ticket price Isn't the main point of getting a cheap ticket and then moving to a more expensive one to not pay the price of an expensive ticket?

I just wanted to add that the difference of 1000 hours come from time spent looking for and dealing with contracts and other overhead like that (as well as downtime), which you don't have as a salaried employee.

Pretty much: it's COPPA. The gist of COPPA is that you can't collect information about people under 13, without the express consent from a parent. So it's not completely against the law to have 13yo on a social network, it's just common for

It looks fine to me. You might be using some kind of browser extension like Ghostery that blocks some content related to tracking. Considering this is an analytics site, it's not surprising that would be the case. (as a matter of fact, I ha

I installed Mixel for its collage capabilities but I was turned off by its social network aspect. Sadly, I've noticed that it's the case for a lot of apps in this space (e.g. Instagram of course, Cinemagram, Viddy, SocialCam, etc.): instead

When was Color's peak exactly? When they raised money? Because after that, it was mostly failures after failures.

Yeah, the video player ended up being a so-so example. :) The point is that it's common to have UI elements that can go one way or the other and it's often possible to justify either way. As far as why there's a lot of experimentation, I th

It is. The annoyance comes from when the styling makes the message unclear as to which one is selected.

A few years ago, I worked on a video player and looked around a lot to figure out if designers tended to go for "show action that will happen when clicked" (e.g. video is playing, so display the "pause" icon) or "current state" (e.g. video

I don't think this is what he's talking about. Well, kind of, but from how I understand, he's talking more about the buttons used like they are in iOS's calendar: http://patrickmd.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/iphone_... (the 3 butt

The least you can do is change your password. I don't know if Yahoo! can log you out of your account in other locations, the way Gmail does.

the badge showed me all the episodes in my queue, even the ones that I had already watched. It will actually show the new ones as "+4" for example until you click it, then it shows the total number of shows in your queue. However, Hulu

Pretty cool. I like the thinly-veiled SEO work in the "See also" section. Smart :) On a show's page, I'm confused by the "Featured series" button that leads to the homepage as seen here: http://whenepisode.com/coming/t/breaking+bad Since

That's certainly helpful but there's no doubt that someone would use a GitBot for nefarious purposes disguised as something useful. Either they insert something in your pictures that you don't realize is there, or just good ol' spam (like T

Absolutely. As much as possible, I try not to log into personal stuff at work and vice-versa. In particular, I won't set up my work email on my phone unlike many of my colleagues. For one, there have been stories of people's phones being wi

The thing as always is how you define failure and success. Do all the founders of a startup that is considered a success make $10M? Of course not. In my opinion, that's where the "it's a lot less than 1%" might come from.

Sure, but all blog posts titles should have "…for some people" then. And all opinions should be concluded by "it depends".

Only file creation is new. I had been wondering where file creation was since they added editing though. This is very welcome.

I think it's something like the average of the last 50 to last 5 comments you've made. Maybe with some outliers removed as well. The main point is that it's not instant (i.e. your last comments are not taken into account) and it uses only r
