Exactly the same for me and unit tests. "They're nice, but we can do those once the product is finished". It didn't finish.

I wish we invested more into space exploration. Like, serious resources from every country in the world. To think that we squabble over silly things on this planet every day when there's a whole universe of stuff we can't even comprehend ou

This is great, I was shortly going to be looking for a 'Stripe in the UK' and this has saved me a lot of trouble, thanks. Secondly, I think your product looks good, especially considering it appears you're wore all the hats during it's prod

This hit home for me. Previously we had identified a problem, but instead of just getting out there and getting started with the quickest working solution, we spent ages building a fully comprehensive service that did it all and more. The o

One of the best ways I've found is to just start it! Tell yourself to just force out 10 minutes of whatever it is you're putting off. Once you've started, you'll want to see it through as much as you can. There's proven theory behind why th

Coffee doesn't do it for me... it doesn't create more energy - it simply takes what your body is storing for later and gives it to you now. Which is good, except when the afternoon rolls around and I'm falling asleep in my chair as I pay of

Woah, they take a 15-40% cut? Is it just me who thinks that's pretty significant? I think I'd rather just bite the bullet and do it myself.

It's actually really interesting to see the thought process and programming technique of a respected dev from start to finish of a project. I'm sure I'll learn a lot, more people should do this. Going to keep it on the secondary monitor.

Deadlifts are arguably the best thing you can do to your body, however they're also the easiest to get wrong and wreck your spine, so be careful and don't push them - based on 3yrs of personal gym experience and 1 yr of gym retirement due t

I don't get why they all invent different naming conventions. We all grew up on 960gs, container_12 and grid_1 . It worked well so just extend it. I don't want to have to switch to col_1 end , column_one or fivecol for something so

A great idea and youve executed it really well. However is it not ironic that a site offering to provide templates is using a template themselves.. :p

Love it, good job. Is the voice-over woman on the demo video a bot? Her sentences don't flow well and sound awkward, why not use a real person?

This looks really good. I can actually see myself using this when the time is right. Lovely looking interface. I don't like the name very much though - "Intercom". It's neither descriptive nor sounds very aesthetic, and I'm sure it's not go

Agreed. Plus next time you won't have to go looking for it on Stack again because it'll be ingrained, painfully, in your brain. And you'll probably learn a whole lot of other things along the way too. StackOverflow isn't a total no-no, just

+1 for don't rush to StackOverflow! You don't get better if you don't tax your brain a little, much like how you don't get stronger if you use a winch or wheelbarrow to carry a load instead of carrying it yourself.

This immediately strikes me as a "why didn't I think of that" idea, but in practice (in my workplace at least) everyone would figure out who was who based on the writing style and general tone. In a larger more anonymous group of people (li

Sadly, they hold the most credibility. Everyone's heard of .com, specifically the casual web users or less tech savvy. I tried .co once, but when I passed a mention of the domain on to someone else, what did they type in? That's right, .com

What error were you getting? The first time I had to set up SQL Server it was a total ballache and I struggled with the same problem for a while. But like most things, after you do it once it's becomes easymode for the future.
