I'm living in Saigon and I've been living here as a "digital nomad" for the last five years. The visa situation kind of sucks because it's a constantly moving target, though to be fair everything here is a moving

In poker, the house takes a cut that typically overwhelms the benefit of being a skilled player. An unskilled player is losing to the house and their competitors. Unless you are playing at an underground game with a

I had a video editing app in the Mac App store since the MAS launched. It made high five figures for the first two years and then trailed off, mostly due to me neglecting it for more lucrative (and time consuming) consulting work. Also, i

I wrote my own algorithm for my video editor Vix, which takes a song and then automatically edits videos to the beats it finds. Sound energy algorithm is not very good imho. Low pass is a step in the right direction, but I've found a c

As someone who writes a lot of glsl (for effects for a video editor, not for 3D), I ended up writing my own preprocessor to include dependencies (and to "patch" differences between GLSL ES and regular GLSL). Package management is

I know this is off topic, but I'm genuinely curious why people refer to themselves in such isolated bins like Rubyist and Pythonistas? Why do you refer to yourself in that way, instead of, say, a developer or programmer or software en

That's not really Apple's doing though. Hamachi has always been a buggy thing. I would get kernel panics in 10.8.x with it. I stopped using it because of that.

I think a retainer fee is a bad idea and this isn't really what a retainer fee is for anyways, so it's kind of weird. Your client doesn't really care why you are freelancing and unless you are like the best of the best at wha

What would you recommend they do then? Not evolve the platform? Retain deprecated methods? I don't get it.

Well, I'm sure there were a number of key factors involved. I'm currently porting a rails app to Laravel and the speed boost has been pretty remarkable, not to mention not ever having to install gems whose only purpose is to reboo

I've had it happen to me twice in the last year. One wasn't even a refusal, instead a simple dismissive hand waving gesture. I didn't relent and eventually got my seat, but had to have flight attendants intervene. It's

Pretty interesting, but you do have to be careful with eating a number of "weeds" that grow everywhere. A good friend of mine in high school ended up strapped down to a gurney for a few days after overdosing on jimsonweed. He wa

Not to be a dick or anything, but "diamond or hit the road" sounds like she is valuing the diamond more than you. I'm sure there was some hyperbole involved, maybe your post is actually an ironic fable, but if neither of tho

Else even Objective-C apps, with the Obj-C messaging system are not native, e.g. they delegate a lot to C-based APIs... For starters, that doesn't make any sense. Note the `C` part of Objective-C. Secondly, native

It might be a matter of local experience, but in junior high school (late 80's), if your parents weren't divorced or both parents didn't work, you were the odd man out. Like there was something weird going on with you. The

I swear I must be the only person in the world that has no problems using submodules and I use them constantly . It puzzles me that people have such problems with it, which I guess illustrates how unreliable anecdotal evidence really is.
