Unalone - corporations are by nature, by their charters, sociopathic entities. I'm not trying to be a hater, it's just the truth. They exist for very specific purposes, and by design they pursue the highest profit margin possible (publicly-

I should also add that you won't feel obligated to pay for a piece of cake or a coffee every so often, just bring what you need. Williamsburg Coworking in Brooklyn is a great space, so is Indy Hall down in Philadelphia.

That's good advice, Jacques! Most of these requests are about our time tracker (Tempo), not any secret project. We're a pretty small shop, so everyone's wise to it at this point.

Well, yeah, but you would not believe how often, brazen, and somewhat sycophantic it is. Some of these messages seem so... oblivious. They even admit that they are working on competing projects. It's starting to get weird.

Ha, that's kinda true, I suppose. Sun gave MySQL the kiss of death. I plug postgres constantly, myself, and I do want to see it get more popular and have a larger community of support (heh, although more users can mean the inverse of suppor

This was an awesome presentation, it really was, and it ended up causing some good post-presentation debate in person and on the 'tubes. If you search for #futureruby in google and/or twitter you'll find some lively discussions of Jesse's t

Hi, Yan, curious if we can get more technical info out of Apple folks about how their new "hardware encryption" feature for iPhone actually works.

Hi Denis, are you at WWDC? It would be quite rad if someone were to start prodding the apple folks in sessions with regards to this. Inquiring minds want to know!

"I personally don't find it outrageous in the least. It's their platform to do with what they wish." Well, I see your point about "their platform", although I can find it pretty crap policy if I like :-) I think the EFF article is particula

Axod, I don't think it's that bad (linkbait, wise), and: I like to know about such things because I'm also an app developer. I also think it should be publicized because it's outrageous bull. Even if I wasn't an app developer, I'd think thi

Yeah, I'm not feeling it either. Although it is funny when the flame baiters start calling each other "wannabe" in the thread.
