Vagrant and Virtualbox made me rethink about issues of developping webapp on Windows. I mostly do Windows dev and sometimes I also do some webdev, so I can't switch everything to MacOS or Linux. I'm just starting to use Vagrant, and I think

They were able to get attention from the governement because the french gov is trying to show that it can somehow control the economy. A lot of french are expecting the gov to protect them against the big. This is good PR for the gov at the

The policy in these large IT seems do often be : "don't do anything, it could go wrong". The long term damage is worse but the policy stays because, that way, there is no one to blame (or might be MS for security leaks in IE6 in 2013) I'm n

Yes, there is a limit to how much correction you can do to an eye with that method. I have a -8 correction and it seems that it's already too much. Also heavier correction gives not as precise results as small corrections : it depends of th

You may try to contact zankyou or some other website that manage wedding list. I used them for my wedding and they also promote other products. I think they might be interested into your product. Their users are the perfect fit for you : en

I tried at home for a few month and couldn't adapt to it. It hurts my legs too much after a few hours. I'm really not athletic so that's part of the issue. What annoyed me also was that I couldn't do creatives things while standing, only si

Actually, I think that a bunch of startups failed because of not configuring their editor, not writing tests, not doing code reviews and refactoring, not automating anything and generally by not taking the time to clean up things.

I agree : it would be a better model to put ads in twitter feeds. Twitter needs his polymorphics clients : I wouldn't like to use anything else than tweetbot on iOS. As an alternative option I would share ad revenues with platforms, that co

I launched Qatapult, a quicksilver like inspired launcher for windows http://emmanuelcaradec.com/qatapult . It still needs polish and it still needs more users, but it's already my favorite launcher for windows. (change the default skin i

I did a presentation a few weeks ago and I found that it was awesome as a presenter to know what people think, and how they perceived my talk : I looked at hashtag after the talk. I'm a total noobs at talking in public but that was very use

That doesn't seems very Apple like move, they don't like to mess with ugly systems and integrate their products with anyone. They have a good place to do that, but I doubt that they'll go that way. But Steve isn't there, and Apple moves mig

I fully agree. For a lot of people facebook is their identity, linking their identity to paiement is a logical step. They could first allow people to exchange any amount of money with friends for free, add it to their mobile app so that eve

Their strategy is smart and reasonable if people perceived HBO as delivering great shows that are worth paying extra useless channels to get, which I don't think it is (but I'm french and not very exposed to their marketing ). I fear that H

I'm probably the strongest coder at my startup and I agree that it can feel lonely when you have a hard issue and you know that nobody is going to help you. Meetup group are totally awesome, I was scarred as well at going to a meeting alone

I agree, the best questions taps in multiple domains and are more subject to be off-topic everywhere.

"The question was deemed to be offtopic for StackOverflow," I've stopped using stackoverflow as a contributor, the moderators are really overzealous. Legit questions are killed way too easily, without any real recourse to explain or rephras

Apple is doing a lot of undiscoverable things like that : - focus to remove an app (people learn that from others ) - splitted keyboard left & right has invisible virtual keys - double tab the button for process - kill process by focusi

It seems that git is the new regex. People are actively building things around instead of learning the rules. I suppose that came from writing being easier than reading.

What I find annoying is that it's the incoming money that is taxed : if you give this money again it get taxed again, so this is actually 10%+9%+8.1% etc... It would be cleaner if the tax apply to withdrawed money or injected money or anyth

That's interesting, there is a recruiting process in place but the easiest way to get the job is to get informal and skip the process. That's really inline with the article ihmo, the process is broken.

Is it true everywhere in the US that tried and failed is seen as a quality or is it something very special to SV ? I think that the US really are the exception here, it seems that in most countries world wide, failing is not really seen as
