Wonderful work. The hardwork really shows. If you don't mind me asking, what were your backgrounds before you starting working on this?

One of my biggest bugbears of learning from the official docs was trudging through python.org. Hopefully this addresses that. Loving the redesign - clean, functional and pretty as well.

Excellent! Love the blog post. And ViziCities already looks beautiful. I can only imagine how wonderful it's going to be once a lot more vectors (population, vehicles, weather, energy, etc) are added in. Would a simulation component be adde

Any particular reason why you've been repeatedly targeted by such individuals? Some of them could be related and if targeted might cease abusing your code.

There might be a few challenges in evolving this product to an iPhone|Smartphone-free future. 3G modems are notorious for their energy inefficiency, and if one were to include them in this device, the drain on the car's battery will be sign

Microsoft did partly address that by making Cambria and Calibri its default header and body fonts. But really, basic knowledge about Typography would help a great deal in creating decent looking content. A Serif title with Sans body-text fo

It's leagues better than the train-wreck that is Gnome 3. It's functional and doesn't get in the way of my work. What more do I need it for?

While the community is ready to dismiss anything Canonical does, they also seem to overlook the work Canonical has done. Unity is far from perfect, but it is functional. Also, the whole issue of inclusion of Amazon links could be solved w

While there are cases (like you mentioned), it's also the designer's part to hustle a bit. If one has the skills and the know-how, they can be unstoppable if they want to. Tangential to your example: I knew an illustrator who used to sketch

Love the design and agree with most of what you had on there, infact I've been following a few of those in my own process for quite sometime now. Although, I have to say, any reason why a Button Pressed style is missing? Visual feedback o

I think the problem is people confuse design and aesthetics a lot. Design is inherently meant to be universal, and obviously if something is really well designed it does make the product compelling and attractive. Design cannot be copied, w

I'm a designer/developer too, and this has been a long-time observation of mine. While there is openness in design (and a whole sub-culture which is dedicated to making life easier), there isn't much among Designers (afaik). I've been ins

It's funny that you actually say that "Exclusivity is the currency of design" , while living in a well designed non-inclusive world (Well designed Signs, Roads, Cars, Mobile devices, etc). Good Design will and always strives to be universa

This whole episode has underlined a few major differences among developers and (current) designers. Developers are more open, contribute code and discuss about bettering each other. While Designers seem secretive, ego-filled and seeking poi

Is Facebook actually featuring Twitter's Vine on their New Feed video? http://youtu.be/YaQQHYQHnMk?t=37s Also, I like it better, more content / less chrome. The Follow news feed filter was much needed.

I remember him, back when I was 11 my elder brother had bought one of his books and it seemed like he had a fledgling business. If anything, he was a Salesman more than a hacker.

One of the reasons' the iPad has held on to its lead in the Tablet market is due to how efficient and powerful its' graphics processors are, both h/w and its software implementations. Top of the line PowerVR chips always launch on Apple har

Seriously though, the PS3 is a no-brainer at this point of its life-cycle. Awesome Blu-ray device, Netflix, Hulu, etc and add PSN plus into the fray and you'll never pay for a game again.

I assume The Witness is cross-platform (including MS platforms) and self-published? Also, I never got to thank you personally for Braid - It plunged me into introspection and little did I know, I was exactly like Tim, a villain thinking of

I'd assume "Trust no one" would include your very post? Movies are fiction, to base one's reactions & responses on it is silly. What he needs is legal & political help.

There is a "standard" of sorts - The Xbox 360 controller for Windows. Almost all games support this.

Gabe Newell is only trying to realign himself. The Windows-download market is getting crowded with better and more efficient service providers - GoG.com, Humble Store, Desura, GMG, GG, Impulse, etc. Valve will be beaten by both bigger and s

PC Gaming is alive and well. It's just that they don't spend millions on marketing themselves. Minecraft, GoG, Diablo 3, WoW, LoL all are standing examples that PC Gaming works.

Rather than glorifying the act of piracy, this movie does a wonderful job of exposing the founders. One of them is an Alcoholic right-wing racist, another a drug addict. Peter Sunde seems to be the only person who who seems vaguely normal.

Honestly, I never expected RIM to have such a powerful launch, BB10 really delivered where they needed to. I've been growing sick of iOS's limitations and Nexus's hardware design direction - Non user-replaceable batteries and absence of ext
