   Dashboards are necessary but not sufficient. As your company grows, you also need to send periodic report summaries to people who can act on them. While you certainly need instant pings (emails/IMs/Tweets) in case of major issues (server do

   If you are using backbone and don't need a complex templating engine, just use _.template. It comes free with underscore, which is a requirement for backbone.

   Browsers do not log out people, but servers do. My web host randomly drop all sessions once a week. It is cheaper/easier for me to build auto-re-login script than deal with a new host or pay current host to debug my server issues.

   Here's another way to deal with this. Upon each successful am-i-logged-in call, the server returns a relogin-as-user-X ID back to the browser (this can continue to be the same cached value or have timestamp/TTL if you want). If since the la

   I'd love to integrate it with my KType application ( http://ktype.net ) or build a new software that converts hand gestures / ASL to speech. I think it's totally doable and would be a lot of fun technically too. What do you think?

    Congrats Mark! Looks like you'll surpass your 2013 goals before it even starts. I'm a very happy user of the app and have known Mark for years. He is awesome! He has another really neat and surprisingly useful app on the AppStore: Lidpop -

    Not the stock I'm concerned with. It's the fact that 1 in 8 people in the world now use Facebook monthly. When that becomes 1/3 or 1/2, what happens? A successful IPO can make that happen.

    Keep the $10 bill because it is very commonly used in restaurants ($6-7 meals + tip). Nobody will miss $2 or $50. I personally won't miss any coins except for quarters.

    If they continue to improve AI like no other company, in the long term, it won't matter if they shutter their business consulting services. IBM might be better off betting on research and innovation than cut-throat competition.
