A front page Rails-related post that doesn’t have a single comment about rails scaling issues, 8 entire hours after submission?! It’s a good time to be alive!!

I’ve been using Rails since 1.2, and somehow it has never lost it’s magicalness for me. These days I might eventually end up using something different to build a production app, but Rails is always still the first tool I reach for. It is ab

Believe it or not, there is another Magic Bus up there, that they used for shooting the movie. It’s very easily accessible, and you don’t have to risk your life to get to it. No one ever visits it.

Same here. I’m sticking with 2012 until Apple makes a MBP at least as good as it, from a usability and reliability perspective.

It took me quite some time to install all the dependencies needed to get into Uranus, but once I was in, it was quite pleasant. Are you planning on spending any time making Uranus mobile friendly?

It actually matters very much if someone is a believer or not. I don’t know where you live, but in the U.S., we have so many people in denial that our efforts to curb the effects of climate change over the last 20 years are now being revers

If by “bail fee” you mean the money that the bail bondsman charges you, then no, it is not. You can basically think of bail bondsmen like a bank. You are borrowing money from them to get out of jail. Their fee is like a high interest rate o

A side effect of coming out with these accusations is that people (like me) are learning about the existence of Footpath. I've never been into the competitive side of Strava, but Footpath looks like a useful app.

I used to be with you on the volume slider being redundant, but at least a few times lately, the more video editing I do, the more I find that I am constantly having multiple windows open, often playing things simultaneously, and wanting on

It is amazing that something like this is still possible in this day and age. If the story didn’t include dates and mentions of Facebook or Lyft, it could be mistaken for having took place 50 years ago.

I just still can’t wrap my head around the fact that in 2018, with a camera attached to every waking persons hand (and some sleeping people too), how is it that there is not a single public photo or video published of this specific drone. K

The SE or it’s equivalent will be back. It’s going to be smaller than the XS, with an edge to edge display, no home button, and no headphone jack. I think it’ll be in the next 6 months, but if not, within 12 for sure. It just makes sense. T
