Granted I haven't played the steam version in awhile, I didn't have a ton of issues with it, and the non-steam version was just not for me. Additionally, I believe they hired another dev who was cleaning up a lot of things, so may

I wonder if shows like The Office, Parks and Rec, Seinfeld, etc end up becoming the "classic rock" of streaming.

No, Snowflake runs it's own storage and compute (on either AWS, GCP, or Azure depending on what you pick).

I recently joined Mattermost, and am currently in the midst of getting us switched over from using Segment to RudderStack. The RudderStack team has been super responsive and it's great to be able to support another open-source based bu

I actually learned Norman a number of months ago to a pretty reasonable level (90WPM) with http://type-fu.com/ . However, I couldn't get over the hump to use it day to day. It's hard to unlearn vim commands and all

I've been keeping track of Google Fi since it was released. I'm hoping the new Nexus 5 (both LG and Huawei versions) is compatible with Google Fi, although I did call the Fi support number (and talked to a real human) and she said

I've recently been making the switch to Norman and use vim. I initially tried to remap a bunch of keys (especially hjkl) but you end up going down a path of remapping more than you want. So I've just started getting used to using

I use this quite a bit. Also displays named captures with values which is nice.

I think the key point that this article is missing, and maybe it's just assumed by the author, is that when you're sending out the life rafts in an uncharted direction you get enough user feedback to either work the feature into your produc

Hey guys, For those interested in the technical specs: we're using Django, PostgreSQL, Bootstrap (we are not designers), nginx, uwsgi. We are going to use Stripe for billing (when I get it implemented). We currently have two 512 MB nodes wi

If you were trading salary for equity and the startup fails you're out that. You're also out time which you could have been advancing at a different company. However, because working at a startup is gambling, you have to treat it as such. I

I used the 1.x versions of Selenium pretty heavily at my last job and the JavaScript selectors could get pretty hairy (even with jQuery). Does anyone with experience with Selenium 2.0 know how much of a boost WebDriver gives for performance

I think it's a point to consider but I think the main point is that these "business" people showed passion and had delivered on that passion by creating mockups, logos and so forth.

I think Apple generally goes for the first mover advantage. I think that's great. I don't think there is any problem with Android using the way paved by Apple and taking it a different direction. Competition begets better products at cheape

A good point. With low weight and maximum torque from 0 to 6000 rpm, it will be interesting to see what performance cars will look like in 20 years.

The takeaway I have from this is that people are people, no matter their status: not sure if what they're doing is what they should be, insecure about other's love for them, never satisfied. It reminds me that we're all people, all human. A

Initially I balked at the thought of maintenance programming but I think this author does a good job explaining the upside. However, the giant downside to maintenance programming is the sheer amount of frustration possible when trying to fi

I'd like to say that Scott Gonzalez and I have been working to unify the API and make it more consistent. When the 1.9 release is out, we're hoping to have less bugs and more consistent code. I believe the effects plugins are also going to

I agree with you, although I wonder to what extent "cutting the fat" helps corporations during recessions, when layoffs can easily be blamed on a down economy.

I'm not sure what you've read but you can have regular "stock" functionality (minus Sense, MotoBlur, TouchWiz in most cases) in a custom ROM. It's really up to whoever puts the ROM together what theme or differences it has. Some are good, s

I've always found there are two types of employees. Employees who do the tasks in their realm of their responsibility and that's it. I think that's fine. In a company, you need employees who reliably work in their realm. There are also the

I think what people are really searching for is satisfaction. If they define satisfaction as being top 5% in wealth, then they'll probably have a long road to satisfaction. As for me, and I suspect others here, I'm satisfied when creating v

I'm kind of interested if you could point us in the direction of specific techniques. I always thought neural nets and genetic algorithms were interesting and I'm curious what other techniques are out there.

I think this is a good point. However, if we maintain the standardized testing, I would say also reward teachers who improve students from say 95% to 99% or keep them scoring 99%. When I was in school, I would consistently score 98-99% on s

I think the word "successful" makes more sense to me in this context. He was successful at prioritizing activities to achieve goals he wanted to accomplish, but what was won? I congratulate the author on having the discipline to accomplish

Could you make it more obvious where to click and hold to drag? I think you want to allow the user to select the text with the mouse without moving the note, but maybe some kind of styling at the bottom and top of the note to designate a "d

I've always thought it's a fools errand to try and go against what you feel. If you "go to work and _try_ to be successful" you'll end up burning out. My advice would be to find problems that you can't instantly think of the solution to. Wh
