I would like that as well, but sadly a lot of U.S. politics seems to be based on personal factors these days...

I think Notch is in a good position. Minecraft has huge draw among children. Think of how many politicians' kids might play it.

That is correct. I can see I was mistaken.

Reddit communities are a minefield, at least in terms of the larger subreddits; Reddit is a site which has a significant young, male, socially liberal audience that is suspicious of advertisers. On Reddit, companies are seen as inauthentic,

That's one figure you will never see. First you have to quantify effort. Then, you need to get companies to reveal how much effort they put into each product or service. This ratio will be a closely guarded secret for companies, since it wo

Have you considered separating multiline strings with a newline above and blow, with multiline strings indented, like so? from Alice to Bob subject Note formatting body Note is awesome! I like to use it everywhere. XML bett

This reminded me of the Vooza webseries [1]. Some of their skits are corny, but I think they show that there is potential for a good startup oriented series. [1] http://vooza.com/

Compared to other Bitcoin exchanges, I have high hopes that you guys are more confident. Taking a page out of Stripe's book is the right move, because you look less like previous Bitcoin sites and more like a startup. If Coinbase suffered a

I really love how the author has taken pains to ensure that everything works in browsers and Node.js. The demo is all client side code, which is truly impressive--there is no uploading to a Node.js server to retrieve SVGs or images.

Could you explain a bit more? I am curious to hear your opinion.

Microsoft is attacking a straw man. The people Microsoft needs to worry about are not trolls with too much time on their hands. The people they need to convince are web developers frustrated by 10 years of IE that refused to cooperate with

It takes a lot of courage to share the source code of a failed project. What would you do differently if you had the chance?

Don't you mean safe mode is the synchronous version? The original default was asynchronous error checking.

Thanks for sharing Ruby Koans! I like the guidance that RubyMonk provides, but Ruby Koans just goes deeper and asks more of the reader. I wish RubyMonk was more like it in that sense, but I like how RubyMonk doesn't require a page refresh f

In the bad programming I've seen, you are spot on. There's one area where I disagree: "Good programming is self-explanatory. Bad Programming requires explanation." I disagree with the first part. Good programming may require explanation.

Yes. Hard drives do in fact come with the advertised storage. Manufacturers rate hard drives in using SI prefixes. Operating systems measure hard drives in binary bytes. It's not false advertising if the measurement system is valid.

That's not false advertising. The drives are measured in SI bytes, which is a decimal system.

Wow, that is truly unfortunate. How long did it take for that 2GB to be chewed up?

This idea has been done before by a site called KnowledgeBlackBelt, formerly JavaBlackBelt--although the idea is heavily perverted in its current incarnation. The site works on the concept of tests and courses. The test questions are submit

Either Deveci is trying to hide the fact that he attempted extortion, or he has no sense of proportion. $10,000 is exactly the wrong amount for a joke. $1 would be silly. $100 would be reasonable. $1 million would be a joke. $10,000 is exto

This is an awesome idea. I thought the fading Romney in the bottom right hand corner made the site, until I realized he wasn't fading with the number of likes. Here's how I would improve the site: Take the number of likes Romney started wit

I think the desire for this kind of project is very reasonably based, and it looks like you have done great work on most of the implementation. I have one gripe with it, though. It would be nice if the documentation mentioned that garlic.js

Well, I'll be the devil's advocate. What about Adam Smith? He noted that division of labor in a factory will increase its productivity and make the workers much more effective. While a software company is not entirely comparable to a factor

I like this idea, although I am not a graphic tee designer, so I cannot comment on its viability. I think the site look and feel could definitely be improved, though. Bootstrap is a great way to get the site started, but the site feels spar

This is pretty good! I built a video/audio playlist app myself earlier this year called Muxamp, at http://muxamp.com/ . I like your approach to the user interface, especially way you've laid out the top bar.

"Well, don't use bitcoin then?" I don't use it in the first place. "And there has been some bitcoin services which have been pretty stable and solid all the time. They just don't get in to the news..." As far as I am concerned, it's just a
