   That was a fantastic read. This is indeed old news in terms of technology choices, but it was great to hear how they rolled the product out. I almost didn't read this article due to the "isn't this a bit old" comments here, but, am very gl

   I agree, it is terrorism. Terrorism of my senses and my brain cells. It's simply a new addictive format, like TV was when it first became mainstream. I've almost lost my wife to Facebook, and all my friends ask me for my Twitter name, eve

   Someone needs to start an Education suite of tools for the IPad. I would love to pass my kids an IPad and let them go at it.

   There seem to be a lot of conferences in NZ, and my friends tell me that there are plenty of jobs to be found.

   Yeah, I had the same question. The PHP syntax definitely puts me off. That said, it's just the front-end. Might as well keep on keepin' on with what you're using, and since it's open source, just rewrite the thing. Deep down inside I wis

   Not even near being a designer, but the font on that post is awesome.

    6 months? That's pretty lame, and I'd be a bit peeved as well. Having to go through that entire process of re-registering, etc, just to get an account back and admin'ing that group? I'm glad this isn't a global policy on email addresses

    I read about this when it happened, and this post was extremely eloquent and thoughtful. Tom, I'd be happy to join you in whipping some Korean butt come Starcraft 2 launch. Even if you don't take my offer up, know that I'm going to think o

    I want to see educational, multitouch, applications. Like, learning how to trace letters, simple math games, etc.

    Yeah, the cold feet things is a bummer. I bought some Injinji socks (that Vibram sells), and it fixed the problem. I'm a barefoot runner anyhow, so Vibrams were a natural fit (pun not-intended).

    No. It's like a big IPod, which I have but don't use often anyhow. I'm sticking to my combination of a Laptop and an EBook reader (I have a Kindle).

    Wow, that's really nice. Bookmarked! The autocomplete feature is snappy (am usually not a fan of autocompletes), and it gets me right to the functions I care about without having to drill into each project first. Thanks for the post!

    I had bad RSI, then took a couple weeks, and switched to Dvorak (it took a bit longer to get proficient in Vim again though). Anyhow, RSI problems were gone, and never returned. So, regardless of any debunking myths, it prevented my pain f

    I find it very helpful to start with a blank color file, and build from there. I've been using my own personal file for quite a while now, and it consists of about 3 colors, and some highlights. I like the simplicity of it, as a lot of th

    I love it. I've been looking for something like this for a while now. I was a Vimperator user for quite a while, but just couldn't use it anymore. I ran into too many issues, and I think the feel just wasn't there. I support anybody who

    It's a great post, albeit, probably about 3 years old.

    Indeed. Imagine if everybody got along and actually worked together as a race to further technology. I bet we'd be living on a cluster of awesome planets somewhere, with extremely large lifespans.

    Well said. I blogged about this same thing about 3 years ago ( http://web.elctech.com/2007/03/01/securing-your-models/ ). It's amazing how many application I come across that don't protect their attributes.

    Ugh. Not sure about you, but I think HN should be a IDE/Editor blog post restricted site. There was recently a thread on erlang-general that was almost 100 replies long. It started out as "Is Erlang a Good First Language?"... then slowly

    I've known 3 people who gave this a serious shot. All tried different variations, and all are very bright individuals who recorded their sleep to the hour. One has a family and a business, the other two are extremely bright engineers. 2 e

    Excellent post Ron. I've been semi-following Totlol for a while now. I have kids, and I think it's a fantastic product. There needs to be something like Totlol out there. I think once you have kids, you suddenly realize this :) Good luc
