I didn't realize Apple kept that from you, but OK. Alternative. Twitter clients normally send their user-agent as part of an API request. Twitter probably still has that data, and could check to see who sent a Tweet from Tweetie between a g

Well, really, it's what happen when you make an impression at Hack and Tell ( http://hackandtell.org )! This was perhaps the highlight of last night's Meetup.

I'm sure they have a list of email addresses that have paid for Tweetie (or the ability to acquire it). Given this, it seems possible that they could do something to disable it in the app.

And even if you aren't a java programmer, there's probably an implementation of your language of choice written for the JVM, which might work on AppEngine. Clojure definitely works, and I think JRuby does as well.

Why does it really matter if Microsoft says it? Say you were interviewing someone and their resume looks great. You talk to them and feel the same way, and are ready to hire them. The fact that Knuth calls you and says, "this was my best st

Openkeyval is kind of cool except that it uses Memcache as the storage platform--i.e. no guarantees of persistance.

He's all over the place, bringing up points, and immediately thinking of something new and different to say before finishing his original thought--I do that too, but it's almost painful to watch.

Well, they are starting to plan really early. Maybe they're opting for that this year?

My only complaint is that it'd have been nicer if it was downtown instead of close to the airport (apparently Durham doesn't have any large event space downtown, which is why it wasn't--or so I was told). I'd have maybe liked to explore Dur

I can't wait for this. The first conj was a great experience. I hope this years will be bigger and better than last, and there's no reason to believe it won't be.

maybe they literally encode 9:27:40 as #092740 edit: definitely not, but I think there's a gradient overlay, which is causing the colors to appear brighter in the center.

Surprisingly close to something I've been thinking about, and working on a bit in my spare time, for me: :table(id=1) => SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = 1 Hadn't thought about mutation, only selecting though.

By that logic everyone that uses Helvetica in Black on a white background should be sued by American Apparel. As far as I know, trademarks can cover the proportions of the logo. So, if I created an orange square, put a lambda in it (using t

How would this be trademark infringement? Can you trademark math?

It took about 30 minutes to do--and, that long because I had to trace a few glyphs from FF Meta (the font) in Inkscape, since I don't own it. I'd be absolutely thrilled if enough people bought one so that mine is free, but, I'm not expectin

You could, but the type is on an orange background, so I'd have to upload a just white design, which I can't do at the moment. If you want, ping me and I'll do it later. (my email is in my profile)

I think I've seen people affiliated with YC with a shirt that just has the orange box with a Y on it. Other YC shirts I know of: "make something people want", and when you get acquired, you get "i made something people want"

Actually it's not. It's 17.40 base price for the American Apparel shirt (which I made so I could buy, since that's my preference), so it's a $2.60 markup.

> However, there's something about the font/position of the logo...err.. expression on the shirt that doesn't quite appeal to me. Maybe I'll have to design one too! The font is FF Meta, the same font used in the Y Combinator (VC) logo.
