I like the idea of his keymap for better quotes, but you don't need to do that. “ is Option-[ ” is Option-Shift-[ ’ is Option-Shift-]

I had been having really bad issues with my 2010 iMac freezing up for a few seconds every couple of minutes since upgrading to Mavericks, and yesterday I finally decided to do something about it. I spent a good amount of time digging throug

I'd argue that Minecraft has it down pretty well too. You get an intuition about what to expect, but then there's always that little thing here or there that keeps it interesting.

It's clever as long as you operate in a zero-friction environment :)

Griefing is just being annoying, while trolling is both a art and an science.

This is simple but awesome. I like this way better than my current pomodoro timer. I left a review. I don't want to see the app all bloated up or anything, but an audible alarm would be nice, as would having a few saved timers (so I could s

This sounds a lot like Dwolla, especially the part about designing toward your own biases. I don't want to say any details, but I've chatted with a few of their team briefly and their devotion to their vision is either going to shoot them i

A lot of this stuff is what you might expect from the level of a craftsman. For those of us who aren't interested in putting in the 10 years to get to that level, we'll make the joint compound and the wrong washer work good enough.

They're covered in the "centralized virtual currencies" section. Since Diablo gold only exists on Blizzard's servers, it is a centralized virtual currency. Blizzard and gold selling sites are considered MSBs, but not users.

I really like that the new installer automatically unmounts the DMG after the install finishes.

However, they're probably building to the URL spec which is what they should be doing.

I interviewed with three people. First, I interviewed with two developers, one of whom seemed like he may have been a manager. The questions that I think doomed me were questions about HTTP status codes and CSRF/XSS attacks. The HTTP status

Well part of the idea is that if you have to write so many comments, your code might be unnecessarily complex or hard to understand. Often, straightforward code is better than clever code. Also, having paragraphs of comments is often distra

I prefer Frank's Red Hot as a ketchup replacement. Tapatio or Cholula for Mexican food, and Sriracha for everything else.

Passing it in as a string just feels dirty to me for some reason.

It blows me away that nobody at LinkedIn had heard of rainbow tables, or that they didn't think it was THAT important.

Haha, this is the first thing I thought of when reading this article. In reality, it would probably be difficult to execute on a live production server via the TCP port method. The artificial delay they added in to prevent timing attacks mi

As long as you're using a reasonably good deploy script (capistrano, moonshine, Heroku, etc) you shouldn't have to worry about updating gems on your server. Most deploy scripts will look at your Gemfile.lock and update if necessary during t

It's probably a good idea to subscribe to rails-security. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/rubyonrai... I probably wouldn't allow a production app to update itself without human intervention.

Yep, there is a pretty easy way to do it. In your Gemfile, put: gem "rails", "~>3.2.0" Then when there's an update, run: bundle update rails Edit: fixed the gem directive

Look at it this way: You now have a fire lit under your ass to finish and launch it. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Milkdrop is probably the best general visualizer ever made. There used to be an iTunes port but I think it died long ago, which is too bad.
