Look to reduce friction wherever possible. Create a folder for me to start with, start me at a blank note... Let me name it later. Compare your flow to creating a Gist on Github. Every click and decision I must make takes an increasing t

He's not only filing the bug, but also attempting to reproduce it. In the vein of doing things that don't scale, this idea is a clear winner. It does seem like a valuable service: The project would get a verified/reproduced

I wish more people knew this. The entire "chemical imbalance" shtick is a myth. If you are ever told this, your response should be, "What chemical? What level am I at? What level should I be at?".. But, alas, there

Built something like this at YC Hacks, except any device or even a webpage could function as the server and provide a real-time or REST interface. We had 5 demo apps showing off various examples, including a super cool two-factor auth demo

Not sure... I saw estimates that it would contain ~$1,500 worth of gold, and I'm speculating it's closer to ~$1,000.

This fits right in line with my prediction [1] that we're all overestimating the amount of gold in the enclosure and that it's going to be cheaper than the high estimates. I'm still thinking $2,499 max. Can't wait to s

That's my reading of it too. When pitching your product, these types of seemingly ignorant questions should be exactly what you're prepared for. Responding with incredulity is a terrible way to win people over.

This is no longer true for apps created after last years F8 conference (4/30/2014, Graph API v2.0,) and I believe the deprecation schedule ends in April.. Older apps will no longer get this by default.

It doesn't have to be in opposition to anything. There are lots of languages, use whatever one you like that is acceptable for your situation.

It's still serving 82% of websites, and it runs some of the largest and most successful properties. It's flexible as all get out, and powerful whether you're running a site or just some command line scripts. I don't do

It has been answered so many times. The data has shown that it actually hurts engagement. The algorithm is better than a simple time-ordered sort.

My guess is, then you probably won't be doing 60mph and in cruise control mode.

A hero slider with gigantic images, where by the time the image loads, it's ready to scroll to the next blank gray area while another gigantic image loads. No text at all. Ouch what a horrible website. And, it's not a half-bike

Consider it during judging. I was recently at MHacks as a sponsor, and our 3 top hack choices were half or more than half female. We gave shout-outs to 2 of them, and our sponsor prize to our top choice. At final presentations, the top 14

That's certainly your choice, but I don't think you should expect developers to continue supporting that choice in new releases.

Hope you can appreciate the tongue in cheek blog title... Had a good time building this, and very open to criticism and contributions. Just keep it in good taste, please. :) I think this opens up a lot of neat avenues for working with Par

Similar experience here, when building a mobile app that did OCR + translations.. As long as the source image was in decent shape, ABBYY did very well. It's also incredibly expensive.

Still painfully slow getting started. 30 minutes to move 3 tiles? Same thing happened now as the first time this was posted. An army is moving, but they're probably going to grow old and die there.

This article reeks of cherry picked data and is written with a vitriolic bias. When you get to the end and "Fuck you, pay me" is repeated three times, it's a good reminder that you're reading some bullshit on the intern

Since Bolts/BFTask was mentioned, I'd like to point out that you can use the Bolts-iOS library in Swift. I added a pull request with the code examples in Swift here: https://github.com/BoltsFramework/Bolts-i

I like this a lot. I could see using it for a few certain sites that are accessories, like a music player, or a reference site, without having to drag a tab off and resize.
