One of the ACM's email lists makes you log in to unsubscribe, but then I can't access that section of the site because my membership lapsed. And this organization purports to represent the state of the art in this field.

I want the chance to do things right. So I guess "autonomy", but it's more than that. Dare I call it "revenge"? My career started with six years in a legacy development ghetto. I started looking for work in the tail end of the dot-com crash

The office and actually getting dressed for work in the morning make all the difference for me. Even if I end up on the couch with my laptop watching Mad Men at the end of the day, starting that day in the "studio" with a cup of coffee sets

Specifically, Computer World UK and Jeff Jarvis (currently of Buzz Machine but formerly of People, Entertainment Weekly, and the SF Examiner) got in touch with Amazon PR directly for a statement. There were likely more big publications cont

This was incredibly helpful to our team about a month ago when a client wanted people to be able to email the art project they built on their site, including the state of multiple canvasses. The library was really easy to use and the output

This probably isn't going to be much help, but I've been thinking back to when I was your age a lot lately (I'm 35). Your generation has so many resources available to learn programming, and so many opportunities to create through the open

The VIC-II "steals" CPU cycles every 8th scan line in order to load sprite & color data, what C64 folks call "bad lines". It has a BA (Bus Available) pin that's fed into the address decoder PLA. When BA is low, the PLA tells the CPU tha

tl;dr - Here's a video demonstration: http://youtu.be/0_6rC025sK0?t=34m16s CardSpace was a Microsoft project led by Kim Cameron, the godfather of digital identity. They originally wanted to make it part of Windows Vista, but it was droppe

I'm genuinely curious. I did my bachelor's thesis on the identity ecosystem. I was an early adopter of CardSpace, iNames, OpenID, and any other digital identity solution that came along and I watched them wither from lack of interest. I was

Chances are they'd more open to telecommuting at the lower end of the salary range, as an incentive for top talent to take a lower wage.

I was just using Gusto for web development at lunch yesterday. It's a pretty good way to work if you don't want to drag a full laptop around everywhere. It's like that famous saying about the best camera -- the best coding tool is the one y

The people I follow on Twitter basically fall into two categories: people I know in person and people I don't. I like knowing what's going on in the lives of people I know & care about. And, the people I don't know share interesting art

He was absent from all of his podcasts for a while to take his daughter Abby off to college. I noticed he hadn't tweeted for a bit. I just figured he was relaxing after all that stress.

I have Tourette's, which is often comorbid with OCD. I guess the closest thing I have to an obsession is an irrational sense of dread when I leave the house wondering if I locked the front door. Really deep all-consuming dread. I've been to

3G 32GB. Love it. I take it almost everywhere instead of a laptop. Great for surfing, e-books, even a little code. Makes my Blackberry look like a pathetic piece of @(%&@#.

Not for me. I used to keep written lists, but got sick of forgetting them at work or having them fall apart when I was caught in a rainstorm. I used "I Want Sandy" for over a year, and was visibly upset when "she" went away. I got accustome
