You would need historical data then, which I doubt kick starter would provide. Only way is to check the amount and # of backers every minute, on every page, unless I'm missing something. This would be incredibly useful information for peopl

Facebook also owns your social graph and that is what they exclaim proudly about the most as well. If any other service wants access to it they have to ask Facebook and they can't just take it. And if there is no Facebook integration, then

Xpath is good when the content is well formed, but usually doesn't work well with even slightly messed up tags. Mojolicious supports broken content much better. And it has full css3 selector support, which we all know is hands down the best

Mojolicious is exactly what you are looking for. Lazy and forgiving DOM parser, and CSS3 selector built in. I've used it for scraping a couple of sites, after trying so many different libraries ranging from curl to asihttprequest for objc t

Ballmer's peak has nothing to do with "the morning after." For me it's after 2-3 drinks but after 4 it's probably gone.

HTML definitely sucks to parse but it's definitely better then plain text. At least it's a standardized format, as well that it allows for a much better interpretation in terms of visuals without convoluting the DOM for a parser. Sort of th

I'd love an experts opinion on c++11 in the realm of high performance algorithms. Considering most of the updates were instruction additions and fixes, is it really increasing speed and even worth it to use the bleeding edge for maybe some

Thank you! Do you have any experience with CouchDB? I'm sure you've at least of heard of erlang and all the benefits it promises, I'm considering whether to use it for a future project, I might because the JSON REST api seems convenient to

Arrays are usually causing problems in the parallelism world, if you're trying to modify them anyway. The standard paradigm is the actor model, you reduce your program to never actually talk to data, only act as if it were. The objects asyn

In that situation don't most authors use some pseudocode anyway(?) since the point isn't to be syntactically correct but to express the concept in a way that can be understood by as many people as possible. I don't know why anyone would wan

Warning: Even if this guy is a doctor, an article online isn't medical advice, always take it with a grain of salt. This just seems dangerous without proper knowledge and awareness of what's going on.

Anybody could do that with a UIWebView now, without this. You can bypass apples static analysis as well by interpolating a selector at runtime. Camera+ did this to enable the volume button to be used for taking a picture. I think to outrigh

Performance is subjective, but let's dig into the performance optimization this patch includes. The update addresses an issue where to do a llseek (read) of the database, the linux kernel would lock the read, causing it to have only one out

That's a worst case scenario and things could be worse if they hacked your production code base. All data should be 256bit ssl encrypted for point to point security and asset tampering protection. After that, i doubt stripes js lib is much

Well the entire stack is open source so no one needs to port it. I'm pretty sure that people like it because, it along with cocoa, makes iOS a great platform to develop apps for. But as for spreading objc, most of the features it has have b

I'm pretty sure they mean jQuery. Coffeescript is on the list as a separate item so that can't be it. Not much popularity behind Objective J and such. Definitely one of the javascript libs, I think we can all agree the javascript language s

Stripe does this really well using a js lib. The sensitive data thus never hits your servers and it's a much better experience for devs who don't want/have to deal with PCI compliance.

I think the language features are neat but who wants to be beholden to google and no one else. We're not even sure how much they use Go, just leave it to them I say.
