Is it normal to rely on this many external services when running a site? I'm obviously novice here, but my NIH syndromes kicks in, and I'd feel nervous if I had to deal with this many companies by myself alone.

Remember that a large corporation often acts schizophrenicly, because there are so many decision making bodies that have conflicting interests within the company. (I took this comment from someone else on HN a while ago)

So you're saying wealth is actually something like happiness? Then I can see it can be created, but I thought he was talking about something materialistic.

I think I'm very late at the party, but anyway I'm hoping that someone educate me. I still can't agree with PG in that wealth is something that can be created. When a woodworker makes a chair to get money, he's merely tr

I tend to think that making a good UI is like writing a good technical document or good presentation slides. We should think UI as a kind of natural language. There could be some subjective guidelines, but I don't think there will ever

I tend to rely on the Apple's UI guidelines. They have many hints that are applicable even for non-Apple apps. I remember Apple had a similar thing already back in 80s, which I found amazing. https://developer.apple.com&#x2F

As a professional, I tend to think a distinct coding style is bad. You should try to write a code that is plain and unsurprising and reproducible. To me, this study gives us another reason that we need a more uniform/standardized metho

Search YouTube with keywords like "KFC クリスマス" and you'll see a whole bunch of Japanese KFC commercials for Christmas.

I like Python3 personally. It's new and better but a different branch . I'm annoyed by people abbreviating it as "Python" and treating it as a substitute for Python2. In my opinion, the "Python" name should be

Ha, ha. What a dystopian country. Except, wait, this is the very country I've been living for decades. Where to start with? First, the language. The translation of the common phrase, "Otsukare sama desu" isn't "you

So, as an average citizen in the country, what should I do? I'm just a tech geek guy. I write software at work, and I teach sometimes (for CS related topics). I write OSS. I occasionally write a blog, but feel terribly helpless for spr

Thankfully, an increasing number of young people here in Japan start thinking that committing a suicide is one of the most cowardly and irresponsible ways to settle issues. Some older generations still might like the idea of "atonement

Contrary to a popular belief, excessive use of washlet is actually bad for a certain type of hemorrhoids. I've been always creeped out with the washlets and warm seats since the day it's introduced (like three decades ago).

I think the message is mostly directed at developers. It's worth noting that a developer's PC is often a very good target. It carries a lot of power, i.e. source codes, host names and private keys, etc. So even the number is small

It's worth noting that the term ブラック企業 is now a kind of buzzword and a general slander that carries little meaning. I can see why people like using it because the sound it makes in Japanese is mildly shocking and tarnishing.

This is very interesting. Just by skimming the texts, there's a noticeable difference. Matt's paragraphs generally start with "So I..." or "So you/we.." and it's possible to grasp the overall flow of

I highly recommend "The Psychology of Computer Programming" by Weinberg to this list. One of the best books about programming that I've ever read.

Paranoid or not, we should develop a healthy skepticism about this in the society. A scary thing to me is that most people don't know about the true capability of information linking/correlating from multiple sources. It's no

Traditionally, they were "o-toh" for dad and "o-kah" for mom. You might add "-chan" or "-san" or remove the "o-" prefix, depending on your taste. Personally, a phrase like "every langua

I think the problem is that what you want to learn is not always fun all the time. At some point you'll hit the wall and you have to overcome it (I admit, however, it never happened to me in programming, but for example I hate driving

As much as I hope this is wrong, I think the logical consequence would be a transition from an imbalanced one-to-all surveillance society to an all-to-all surveillance society, i.e. everyone knows everyone else's secret. If we can&#x27

This might mitigate some bandwidth problem, for sure, but how can this improve our privacy and the right to be forgotten? I think I'm missing something. Isn't this just a modern reimplementation of distributed hash tables that wer

This totally reminds me of Family BASIC. It had a music editor and level editor, and I had a fond memory of playing (i.e. programming) it at a friends house. The biggest problem: its memory storage was only 2Kbytes. A program had to fit in

This could be the best thing ever. I'm a guy who types in SVG diagrams manually. They're normally simple enough and it's easier to get the alignments when you type in the coordinates. But tools like this could change it. I&#x

As a citizen, I'm still pretty much open to this is-nuclear-good-or-bad debate here. The biggest problem in Japan though is that people don't openly talk about this issue because of the embarrassment or fear of confronting others

It's funny how both sides of the argument think that ads are something people has to "put up with". If ads are really that good, not watching would cost you (either money or a nice opportunity for good products). For now I do
