What's with all of this nonsense about 'humility' lately? It's almost as obnoxious as 'entitled'. If the person who posted this link believes that it is Beautiful, then it is. You may agree or disagree but humi

I've had pretty good luck with Airmail, which happily supports Gmail keyboard shortcuts. Might be worth a look.

You are so right about this. I think the only thing worse is that through it all, whatever band you like is NOT METAL. Only the three sub-sub-sub-genres that I like are true metal. Bah. Get off my lawn.

Spoken like someone who either isn't a programmer ( a PM, maybe? ) or is projecting. Programmers don't 'goof off' more than any other group of people. Programming is generally a solitary activity, largely due to the imme

They forgot to mention that ( at least in my circles ) they are notoriously known as an 'engineering factory', where most people hate their job, because very few people want to pair program ALL DAY, EVERYDAY. Pair programming in s

Hmmm.. So this is a SaaS IRC bouncer, in a web-app, without the ability to use an actual IRC client. Seems too limited to be useful. Setting up an IRC server, with a bouncer on a $5/month droplet would be more useful.

Even non-lethal chemical weapons? /pedant I'm not arguing for or against patents (personally, I think they're an abomination), only against 'group think' from people choosing a 'team' and then using propag

I agree that they are different, however it sounds like I'm not communicating my idea correctly. I'm very much NOT interested in code quality from an engineer. I very much AM interested in how an engineer thinks and approaches

For a long time, the whole 'Github profile' stuck in my craw, but recently my thinking has changed to more of a 'show us your code portfolio', which isn't much different than a lot of creative job interviews. When h

I seriously can't believe that there is an entire sub-culture of people that are still trollololing about 'rounded corners' without understanding the context. Design Patents are Different than Technology Patents.

Unless 'someone' gets smart to the system and starts adding tax to the quit smoking products, of course. I think we're seeing some of this now, with the greater attention being paid to e-cig products.

I could be wrong, but the op was asking for a book recommendation beyond the Rspec book, because the root message of this thread says: "The Rspec book is a load of crap."

Completely anecdotal, but their rental prices for Redwood City are in line with what I pay. The median prices they list for other cities seem to be in line with what I'm seeing looking at different places to live as well.

One thing to keep in mind is that things 'feel' different on the phone than they do in screen shots. I was pretty 'meh' about iOS7 until I installed the GM on my phone. It still has some weird spots, but over all it look

I can't be the only person who thinks Go is really interesting, but can't get over the 'package' hump... It's just too wonky for 'real-world' from my experience. For example, how do you create clear lines

I've got to be missing something... I don't see where the racism is? Because he said 'white'? He also said 'gay', so is he a homophobe too? In all seriousness, point out the racism, please?

It depends on your keyboard as well. I use a Kinesis Advantage, which has the arrow keys in a place that doesn't require movement from your hands, so hjkl doesn't provide the advantage that it used to.

The fact that you have to sign a contributor agreement is cause enough to leave it alone or fork it. I read through your commit comments, read "Please sign this agreement" and thought to myself "this is why Microsoft is dyin

In the Bay Area? Barely middle class for a family of three. What I don't understand in the venom these people receive. Makers vs. Takers? Ridiculous. Perhaps people should stop buying into Ayn Rand's objectivism nonsense and tak

There's a pretty significant different between EFT ( what you're referring to ) and ACH, which is the transfer of money directly into an account electronically. It makes business sense to have all of your clients pay you via ACH i

I cannot believe you're serious... You believe that people should go to jail for the things that they say, really? It doesn't matter if it was tacky or juvenile or vulgar. When you were a teenager, you didn't do and say thin

These are interesting, but for some reason they read a little too much like AA self help books. Perhaps because it's difficult to be informative and vague at the same time.

There are really several layers of issues to deal with in regards to the JVM. First, the JVM really IS NOT a great choice to build other languages on. It wasn't designed for it; In fact before invokedynamic, it was nearly impossible.

The comparison to Steam is false to begin with. PC gaming has NEVER been a trade with your friends (legally) culture. Console gaming has ALWAYS been a trade with your friends culture (legally). When was the last time you saw a used PC ga

Really? Are you just saying that to be contrary? What specifically about the XO are you more excited about than the PS4? I'm genuinely curious. Personally, the locking down of the platform to destroy the used game market is a big loss, imo
