Meh, I don't use google reader or really care, but I am pissed they plan on ending igoogle in November. It's insane to me that they will do this. It's my homepage and I'm sure millions of other people's homepages. Setting your homepage to

I'm sure StackMob is a great product and time saver, but the title is incredibly misleading. I guess everyone does it these days to get the page hits. "I timed it and it took about 16 hours over the course of three days to get this app up

find . -name "*" | xargs grep "hello" 2>/dev/null Searches all the files in current directory and all subdirectories for files that contain "hello". Add -l option to grep to only display the filenames instead of filename and match.

I find it sort of ironic that everyone here thinks this would be awesome, but are completely opposed to hovering predator drones observing our every action 24/7. Obviously it's all a matter of who has access to the data, but essentially th

Lunch with Warren Buffet went for $3.5 mil. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-500395_162-57449980/lunch-with-w... It would not surprise me to see this go for $10-$25k.

Well, yeah duh. But who cares what their true motives are? Why are you complaining about free credit card processing? Also, everyone is trying to do cost calculations based solely on their transaction costs. You are not counting all the

Agree with OP. Heroku really needs to add a billing status screen. If you host a free app it's confusing when they will start charging you for usage and how much it will be. You can look at past invoices which shows your how many dyno ho

It makes sense that the free apps are making more when you think about it. They're getting the most money out of each customer. Every customer is not worth 99 cents. Some are worth a LOT more. Just like when you go overseas and the local

This. Programming is skilled labor which is why they make more than the guys that work at McDonalds but there's still a ton of programmers out there. There's a lot fewer people out there that know what to create, when to create it and how

You said: The owner(s) of the company only gets paid at the IPO. That's the only time he gets money from the stock market (unless and until the company issues more stock later). This is totally false. They get paid anytime they sell stock.

What? This is completely wrong. The owners don't completely cash out at the IPO. I don't know exactly how much Zuck ended up selling at the IPO, but after some quick googling I found an article from a couple of weeks ago stating Zuckerbe

Isn't this a case of the small app developers not iterating quickly enough? If you look at the side by side screen shots the Zynga graphics DO look significantly better than the original game. Isn't the lesson here that if you do somehow
