Do you have more handwriting styles available? It seems like there's an underlying fundamental 'template' with certain parameters getting randomized on each render.

I wonder how many of the couples that "met online" actually met on a dating site/app. It sounds rather native to reduce the discussion to these. People that use these are probably a self-selecting group that's not repres

Oh wow, I thought it was going to be "unicorn" as in "unicorn startup". What a surprise ;D

Not that I necessarily disagree - but conversely it's just as comforting to think effort past a certain threshold is not worth it.

I think Windows 7 generally runs better than Vista. IIRC Windows 8 should also use less ram than 7. My Dell Inspiron Mini 10 ran windows 8 smoothly, just couldn't run Metro apps because of the low resolution (there's a minimum res

I hope passing file descriptors over Unix sockets will work contrary to Cygwin. I really want to use ControlMaster in OpenSSH. Btw. if anyone knows a decent workaround I'll be super thankful as well.

I don't believe there's much causation between SK's infrastructure and the kind of software they make. What they described in the article - horizontally integrated apps, cluttered websites, higher adoption of online payments

Enterprises already run very heterogeneous stacks/software and more often than not a large portion of that is proprietary or outside of their direct control in other ways. I don't see why any enterprise would take the risk of not

I think that basically means Google offices outside of SV/MV.

Mathematica is a pretty good example of a language that introduces some syntax without compromising on homoiconicity. For example a := {1 + 2 - 10, 10, {1, 2}} is just Set[a, List[Plus[1, 2, -10], 10, List[1, 2]]]

Doesn't seem to work for me, anything special you have to do? Maybe the feature is locale dependent. Could you post a link if it's serialized in the url?

I don't agree about the unfairness or that it will have a negative effect. But I do think that Meteor's nature as a framework, might be its downfall as a company. I have a hard time imagining how Meteor is going to be able to cont

Isn't your TLD one of these popular with scammers? Not such a huge deal but that was my first thought :-D Anyways it looks like a consulting operation.

I'm not a big fan of schools, so I don't think I'd like anything they did haha. But if I was forced to come up with something I'd probably just optimize for breadth. Just exposing people to as much information about cod

The way I look at it, is that "doing things right" is a risk. It will always equal faster "speed-to-market" in the long term. I think we're just afraid to admit that "doing things right" very often ends up

From a mainstream consumer software startup's standpoint I'm pretty sure adoption of mobile is still the biggest trend. The last 10 years was about everyone starting to have "smartphones" and mobile internet access. Now

Well, I guess the point is I don't know! :-D I'm only thinking and commenting from the standpoint of efficiently explaining evolution, because parent's video disappointed me. Maybe "in depth" is indeed not an option

I just watched it. I'm pretty ignorant in terms of biology and never really gave it much thought. The video you posted presents a good case that all living beings are related in some way and only hints at evolution by briefly talking a

I used to use DO for little side projects. It was good enough for that. There were random reboots but didn't mind it so much at the time. When trying to pay (had some free credit before) they blocked my account and asked me to contact

Most comments seem a bit too focused on the content. What I'd do is just get some sound clips that you like, put them into something Adobe Audition. Record yourself trying to mimic them, compare the relevant graphs (pitch/time&#x2

How many employees do they have? The less the more likely you are to negotiate a good stake. I don't think it really makes sense to apply financial calculations at this stage. You might be underestimating the amount of equity you can g

Do you have slack (or some other chat)? Might help a lot. And don't have chat "meetings" or anything. Just talk as things come up as if everyone was available 24/7. @ relevant people if pressure is needed. Also try to no

Well, I did use node.js a couple of times for stuff that would normally be a shell script. Like simple scripts spawning some processes and killing them on certain events. But I don't think I'd use a JavaScript shell. sh seems more

So what's the business case? The fact that you hate the current code is not. As a manager (and a developer) I'd be very wary of letting a new employee refactor a project that they are unable to work with. If they cannot work with

The more senior you go the less it matters. At senior positions your architectural understanding matters more. If it's a junior position then all depends on their willingness to train you. Basically if they want someone to crank out co

I agree with this video a lot https://vimeo.com/85040589 . TLDR (or TLDW :-D): Ambitious people usually have pretty good taste and can tell what's good work and what's lame work. We feel very sad about our lame wo
