TL/DR: I probably shouldn't have used Rails in the first place, but it was too tempting to roll my own blogging engine. Octopress/Jekyll is a better fit for now, but I do have concerns about future problems this choice may cause.

If they get to the point of going into a store, you can bet that the store employees will do everything they can to sell them a different phone that is in stock today, that they can earn a commission on now. The same would be true if iPhone

Supply chain issues really hurt in a market as competitive as smartphones. I wonder how many sales Apple loses per day because they can't keep the product in stock? Buying an iPhone 5 involves either lots of waiting, or hard work to track o

Sorry: I meant "why is there no LEGAL live stream of the World Series game" I'm legitimately interested in the business rationale. There must be one, but it is non obvious. My best guess is that by focusing max audience onto one platform, t

Maybe they should block you then buy you. Probably would help them in the negotiation... But in all seriousness, PadMapper was a great service and seemed to do it the "right" way (providing deep links back into Craigslist's site/content), i
