His hometown is close to were I live. I've visited his father's, Philipos, tomb at Vergina. Massive structure, loads of gold, really impressive. Sometime they have to find Alexander's tomb too... it still remains an unexplored mystery.

I'd say get a chance to personally interview them. Invite them to dinner, grab a beer/coffee with them. Make it friendly and casual. Always give them some sorts of carrot for their time... Surveys are too formal and impersonal. They're also

Some quick thoughts: - If you have product, your first developer should at least be familiar with your technology stack. 2-3 years hands on experience should be a must imho. Avoid arguments like "He looks like a smart dude, he'll pick up th

I think the best solution is to release the first version and only scratch the surface about the marketplace. Do not directly hint about it. Maybe the early feedback of the first users will give you an idea of whether they want a marketplac

Most of the UNIX ecosystem (*BSDs, Linux, etc) is solely developed using C. In addition to that, most embedded operating systems and real-time applications that require heavy interaction with the hardware use the C programming language beca

This is probably what most people call "perfectionism". I myself have this... "curse", if you want. It's perfectly normal to think that every piece of your work is not the best thing, cause by doing it you get a tiny little better, which fo

I am sorry to say this, but I don't see any "fail" here my friend. The only "fail" thing is that you cracked the screen of your iPad. You can't do that and expect any good out of it..

Phrack, even after the official crew gave up contributing to it, is an exceptional archive of deep and highly technical programming techniques (and more). I highly recommend to everyone to just go through some of the issues and read some pa

Maybe add some sort of visual hint on Tindie to show that new content is being loaded. It takes sometime to load the new chunk and someone might think there's nothing more to see down there.
