This could be an interesting discussion. I notice that even large apps like gmail and google calendar use native alerts (and I've been using them a bit more under certain circumstances—something has gone terribly wrong). What about nat

I'm a big fan of the favicon! Making a good favicon always feels like such an ordeal, and it never seems to offer as much in return for the time you put in. This one's great, and I guess it'll inspire me to keep on pursuing b

I think it's pretty well known that JK Rowling is a woman. Also, she has recently written some books under the pen name "Robert Galbraith". Edit: I see above that the poster was referring to Notch. Just a simple case of an un

I'm always curious about vim but hardly use it beyond git commit messages and modifying files on a server. I'd be interested in getting better, but have an easier time setting up Sublime (and don't really have the time during

I too struggle with the choice. Polymer/web components _might_ be an easier sell to my boss as it doesn't require as much framework specific knowledge and would make it easier to get new teammates up and running. However, the poly

It's tangentially related, but my grandfather used to tell me stories about growing up in Florida in the 30s. He and his brothers used to homebrew beer, and in order to keep it cool while it fermented (and hide it from their parents),

Yes, but you had the expectation that things would get better (and I'm assuming you had the skills to make much more). My friends who aren't involved in the tech industry have quite a long row to hoe when it comes to making more m

As a self taught developer, I love how open programming is. Also, I don't see how licensing could keep anyone from being a (successful) self taught programmer. Would they outlaw text editors for all but the accredited? Don't forge

I think it's because of the App Store's roots in iTunes. Searching for media—music, let's say—usually requires you to know the name of the artist, album, or song. How rarely does someone know the name or developer of an app?
