Really? It'd have a HUGE impact on my life. Nearly every aspect of my social life is planned on Facebook. It's the one place where nearly everyone I know are. Facebook, for me, is really just the best event planning tool in existe

It's a fair bit easier to setup than Cassandra and a document store is simply easier for most people to reason about than column-families. For something like your typical rails app, Mongo has some real nice properties. It makes it stic

It really is an interesting story. They aren't best in class in any of the metrics we think of as mattering. It's not the highest scale system out there. It's not the most durable. Or the most available. Hell it's not ev

Palm OS apps were using swipe to scroll for several years before that. As far back as at least 2002. That doesn't take away from what Apple did. They really took all of the best ideas (and in many cases hired the engineers who made the

It's going to require all of those things. The densest cities on the planet still have far-flung transportation systems. That's out of necessity, even when you're building up dozens of stories at a time, there just isn't

Round Rock is an exurb tho. If you're ok with that, then great! But it's hardly and apples to apples comparison. A better comparison is the going rate for rent in Austin proper.

Wasn't that the point tho? Basically Google went: "We have this cool thing, but we're not sure were it's most applicable. Lets just put it out in the world and see what people do with it!" Which is what they did. Th

This is light grey. I'm dissapointed in you HN. This is absolutely correct. One common version: Many sells come with some sort of earn-out. Meaning that the company has to perform at some level over some amount of time in order for the

In most (maybe all?) small claims courts you are forbidden to have a lawyer present. Companies generally send an administrative assistant or something similar. You are welcome to retain an attorney before and after the hearing, but they can

I simply have to believe that cloud services have taken a big bite of the sysadmin market. We currently employ zero admins (~25 employees, moderate traffic). In my previous ventures that'd be unthinkable, but we've effecticely out

I know that race plays a significant factor here. I wonder how much that drags down some of those southeastern states? edit : Reading farther down breaks things out by race, which suggests that it is only partially responsible. White life
