A couple of months ago, my company's software team evaluated FogBugz as a possible replacement for our Trac setup. I would describe FogBugz as ugly by modern standards, because it appears to have been written a little under ten years ago.

At demanding colleges (Ivies, MIT, top LACs) they might average 30-40 hours per week on classes and homework. Not true, at least as you state it. When I was at MIT, I was spending about 30-40 hours per week on homework for a single class

Not to mention that most of those Type A busybees' startups will fail. All the hours in the world can't erase the fact that even good startups often tank, and most startups are founded on pretty cockamamie ideas anyway. Equating hours-per-

I have a 1995 Tacoma at 135Kmi and a 2003 Corolla at 85Kmi. I'd buy either one again, but the damn things won't break. Recommended heartily.

To me, it seemed like he did mostly believe what he said in his rants. He is only backing away from the ZSFA persona, not the things he said during his ZSFA tenure. As someone who's done time as a troll, I can verify that the persona can

I actually think The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has more literary value to an adult than to a high-schooler, not that I would remove it from any high school curriculum. It's the Great American Novel. Worth a re-read, whether or not on

Tom is the anti-establishment, mischievous one -- he's set up with a family, so he has the room for mischief. Huck has no family, no one other than a drunk bum dad. He's interested in Tom's mischief, and that's his strongest connection to

I'd use AWS only if you are intending to have your app auto-scale from the start. Aside from that, it's not worth the extra expense (about twice the cost of a comparable Linode) and hassle (you must manage S3 backups, at the least... or lo

No signup wins by a mile. Having to create accounts on every two-bit website is annoying, and I usually just go somewhere else.

I have used Gandi for 3-4 years now, and I have no complaints whatsoever. I suppose it could be cheaper, but there is such a thing as too cheap. Before that: NetSol who are crap, JumpDomain who were worse than crap, and Joker who were OK e
