I'm not sure that would work. The 20 odd year lag seems to be a generational gap, not a delay in concrete effects on any specific person.

I also once phone interviewed with Picturelife but it was cut off because the recruiter organizing our interaction was an asshat. I'm very happy where I ended up (Heroku), but would have loved to work on Picturelife, fwiw.

I can't wait. I wouldn't expect to pay a fee related to the size of my library (I am doing that to S3) but wouldn't hesitate to pay a moderate monthly or one-time fee for the product.

Very very very happy Picturelife user here. Your S3 support is the icing on the cake — but please charge me a flat fee for using your software with my own storage. I want to pay for this great storage but your pricing model only prices on u

Really loving being on Picturelife. Last one (that I like) standing — at least for now.

You aren't wrong, but this viewpoint is incomplete. That approach does nothing to stem the well-documented repelling forces that exist in the industry today and the anecdotal yet overwhelming accounts of women who are interested in t

Indeed. That would be interesting. I haven't looked, but I wonder if the data is readily available...

Except they would be wrong. In cities, cycling is almost always provably faster than driving or public transport because traffic becomes a non-issue and you can start immediately when a light turns green instead of waiting for the 5 vehicle

So I got my Fire TV. It has some CEC support because it shows up as a source to my TV and the TV and receiver correctly switch to it. My TV remote, however, does not control the Fire TV. Given that the HDMI hardware supports CEC, I think th

This is the thing I want to know the most. So I bought one and will probably return it if it doesn't.

I had the exact same experience except with Lyft and it was a Galaxy Note hah!

Did you get back a video from Peek? Was it useful? I'm curious about your experience.

I hadn't seen this but it seems like a really elegant solution compared to the alternatives. I look forward to trying it.

Indeed. That was very insightful. It's interesting to see the things I've arguably done well in past negotiations and those that I did poorly...

Agreed. Nothing beats evil-mode in Emacs, as far as I'm concerned. That's a model for other vim emulation layers to follow IMO.

mealguru was mine. Hopefully new owner will make some use of it. I had a great idea once for it but never acted on it. I've had plenty of offers ($2k+) for the domain so at the very least there's that... :)

GitHub is not society. I don't expect guarantees of freedom of speech or expression. I'd be disappointed if they took those things down, but I think it is well within their jurisdiction to decide what type of content they want to

I'm not in the market for a new mattress just yet, but probably will be when I (eventually) move back to Australia since shipping my current mattress just seems crazy. Do you guys ship overseas? If not, would introducing international

We use iDoneThis at Heroku. I love it so much. Thanks for building an awesome and simple tool.

Speaking as someone on a work visa in the US, I can tell you that their requirement is generally 12 years of experience in the field, with each year of higher education (in that field) counting for 3 years. So a 4-year degree works, as does
