My first response was just "mp3s" but there could actually be some cool tech out there we don't know about and that got me thinking about my DJ friends who post their mixes of their shows online.

mp3s. More specifically podcasts of indie stuff and underground mixes. Here is a start from Noise Pop: http://www.kqed.org/arts/programs/noisepop/episode.jsp?essid...

Start by taking the rest of the day off. Go home sick if you have to and regroup. Don't quit while you are angry/upset. If you still feel like you want to leave write a resignation letter tonight and do it in the morning or after a few days

For one Joyents no.de platform runs on their "accelerators" which are basically Solaris containers and there is a different package management system to deal with than you may be used to (they use pkgsrc) but it's pretty easy to figure out.

Yeah, jade pretty much rocks. (I'm a fan of haml too) The nodejs ecosystem is maturing a whole lot. Express+jade=win: http://expressjs.com

Just because they use small caps in the title of the paper does not mean you need to make the title all caps here...

This is too bad. I had not had time to stop by there for about a month but it's a really great place and if you live in or near SF you should check it out. I've signed up for a monthly donation. Hopefully others will follow and Noisebridge

It's pretty simple. People like a deal and direct marketing works really well. All they have from me is my city and an email address. They have sent me exactly one email a day for a week since I signed up because a friend of mine sent me a

Ditto for ruby: http://nokogiri.org Both a little bit of a pain to build on OSX since it ships without the required version of libxml. Not too bad though.

Lesson one: C is a case sensitive language and so is english. Apologies for the snarkiness but I could not let it go. Anyway... This is an interesting read: http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/hist.html Also check out this reading list:

This looks like spam but I'll bite. I'm a huge fan of excel in certain situations (Like to generate VB6 Code or bash scripts if you travel back in time) but ten years later when you're stilling using it to run your business or you reorganiz

It is a great design except when you try and enter your credit card late at night and have to think about your expiration date because it's on your card as 03/13 and they make you translate it to March 2013 instead of just putting the numbe

Agreed. I have a bookshelf full of 60+ dollar tech books full of obsolete stuff. 30 bucks is a reasonable price for a tech book and one I'll gladly pay. (Also, +1 on the C book)

Here is a really good talk by Adrian Cockcroft[1] from Netflix on this whole project to move to AWS over the last two years. It was given last week at hacker dojo in Mountain View. Video could be better but there is some good stuff in there

Do you want to live in the Bay Area/SF? If so email me - I might have some contacts for you if you are interested in working for a consulting firm. 36K is low and their terms are probably not legal in most states.

A clone of the disk with ghost[1] or better yet a hardware solution[2] to the new disk is going to be the "best" way to do this. This assumes the old computer is widows xp + (hopefully with an up to date service pack) and there are no major

Yeah, I thought the browser stats for HN people was interesting as well. We love Chrome and apparently one person likes news.ycombinator.org.

Not enough people are trying to take over the world. I would love to see some bigger ideas instead of startups described in terms of other startups that already exist or spins on something else that is marginally useful at best but perhaps

Summary: They need more smart and less machine. You can try an instance out for a day or two and just cancel your account. I ended up canceling my test instance but am thinking of trying it again to see how they did with the node stuff. Fra
