You can have your cake and eat it; break out vi on a remote server and edit away, or get a live preview in as GUI app. Neither is a bad experience, but having a live preview is legitimately a (minor) improvement.

That seems to be GPLv3 rather than LGPLv3 (although it gets a mention).

I'd imagine they've worked around that by just collecting everything that goes over the internet.

The bottom line is there's a price on it. Almost certainly in salary terms, but to a marginal degree perhaps other parts of the package.

Presumably he wasn't necessarily aware of TST? I wasn't. I don't see anything wrong with crediting where he found his inspiration. There's always a chain to these things, presumably TST wouldn't exist without Firefo

No reason only greenfield projects should be suited to this. Contracting is the only viable route I've found. Otherwise you just won't get paid enough. The downside of that is you need to be (loosely provably) good and experienced

I disagree, I think free would be a significant difference. A low barrier vs. no barrier.

I think the general level of criticism seems a bit harsh. It's perfectly usable even under the weight of at least HN, quite a lot of effort has clearly gone into it. There's some edges that want polishing, particularly around page

"I failed". Ouch. I'm a couple of months into doing something similar and I was contracting before it. I'm fairly resigned to returning to contracting at the end of my six months. Churning out a product company from scra

Probably a host of stuff from one less NASA orbiter crashing, down to not having the sticker on millions of car B pillars printed with imperial and metric tyre pressures. There are lots of downsides, it's interesting you give a constru

Unfortunately the software support seems seriously lacking for a lot of these RPi competitors, I'd be reluctant to get one without seeing a sizeable community behind it. Parallela looks to be another interesting alternative.

04-06-2014 is the 4th of June. 06-04-2014 is the 6th of April. I can get this right every time without learning every date parrot fashion, so there must be a way to tell. I'm not sure how largest -> smallest component (exclusive o

Quick Google of the main specs suggests max spec for the CF-53 is i5, 8GB 1333MHz, 500GB, 1366x768, 802.11n. 1.8-2.2" height, 5.8lbs without touch. That seems a generation behind my rMBP; i7, 16GB 1600Mhz, 1TB, 3360x2100, 802.11ac. 0.9

I don't see why, given that educating the US public about security best practices perfectly aligns with their mission. I suspect how well it aligns depends on which part of the large and complex organisation that is the NSA any given

Yes... but documentation does fall out of date, so YMMV depending on the product and your hiring rate.

I wouldn't be so sure. Lots of UK ISPs charge by usage and they haven't been immune from similar pressures. This was 2008: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/7336940.stm

I disagree. Your employer is sponsoring a lot of your learnings in a specific area, so he's entitled to all your ideas in that area, that's what your paid for. Absolutely not, you're paid for your time, not your thoughts!
