On the other hand, this person who fought their way out, could have easily failed if they were sufficiently _unlucky_, no matter how hard they tried, no matter how "intimidating" that spark. Heck, they could have been hit by a bus or someth

Until I saw this comment, I'd been pronouncing it "drop-ache" in my head, and scratching my head wondering whether it was a reference to dropbears or not. Now I see the light. Maybe instead of rebranding, make a logo that sets the "apache"

Pretty cool concept. I love the flowing endless canvas on the public page, it's what I wish Reddit and HN had. If clipboard.com fails, you could always pivot and pitch that component as a SaaS for aggregators and blogs, or something. Some U

Of course this is meant for cases where both parties do not have dedicated counsel; if they did, then they wouldn't shy away from international court in the first place, right? If judge.me doesn't screw up (which they easily could), I can e

Pinkie's not the only brony hacker either. Consider this Rainbow Dash fan: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/sq7cy/iama_a_malware_c... ... and in general, there are a plethora of bronies scattered across the startup world and CS acade

Very inspiring! Maybe I'm just stupid, but I don't see what license you're using anywhere... MIT perhaps? If so, I'll definitely be using your color picker and context menu code. For others who might be interested (as I am) in using Common.

Ah, the feature that turned into a bug. Lion automatically saves the windows of any application when it's quit, and restores those window when you next start the app. So to get it to go away, close the window, then quit; don't just quit rig

Wow. I don't even. Not that I advocate hacking, but it would be righteously ironic if some of Adobe's employees hadn't upgraded to CS6 yet, and someone broke into their systems using this vulnerability.

sigh If I had known about this a week ago, I could have avoided a whole lot of hardship dealing with Require.js + node_jasmine + NPM... three complex things that were never really meant to work together. But I can see this as being really

If we didn't want them to do the most obvious thing they could to monetize their business, then we shouldn't have practically cut them off from public funding. Frankly, I'm on the USPS's side on this one.
