I don't think the people at Heroku would much care... except that their name is being sullied by this clone. Anyone reading this will equate Heroku to a steaming pile because Djangy is being alluded to being one. Could this topic be renamed

Not really, since my kids' pediatrician does a good job of keeping those records and letting me have access to them. But, just as a quick "do you know what you are getting into?" question. If this is going to be used in the USA, have you st

So, what I learned from this article is: If you are stinking rich or important and have an assistant, you don't need a cell phone because your assistant will have their cellphone and you can take it when you need it or have your assistant c

That is dead-on the reason I stopped using it. Woot! I got an invite. Dang, none of my friends did. Well... when can I get them one. Forget about this. Meh. Back to email, IM, IRC and Twitter.

Everytime I start to feel like that, I remember a truthful joke: Q. What do they call the guy who graduated last at medical school? A. Doctor. Don't discount what you can achieve. It may be intellegence, inspiration, persperation, or luck.

I remember reading this when it first came out and reminded me of my own run in with DFS right around the same time. Stopping real child abuse is important, but the system is so lopsided that merely being accused makes you the criminal. Peo

That would definitely be before the first time I heard it. My first recollection of it was one of Casey Kasem's tirades back in the 80's. I can't find the original on the web, but Bob and Tom spoofed it with "Mr Obvious - Too Hot for Radio

As odd as it sounds, I actually enjoy being able to and sometimes having to dip into other people's code. For a bunch of jars that I had to use in Java (or C++ or VB even), there would be some feature missing and I was plum out of luck and

Ah.. this gives Think Geek's recent cease and desist more of a foundation. I was thinking that it was a one-off misfiled lawsuit, but now I can see that it is more of a full throttle front that they are going after everyone who is blurring

I always read things like this with a hefty grain of salt. To say that all "pharmaceutical companies" blocked him on this because treatment is more profitable than cure seems rather absurd. You would think that with all the non profits out

I didn't know it was so new of a feature. I've been using email article publishing since back when PostNuke was the hot web publishing tool. But, it seems to be wrapping around as the "new hot tech" again because this generation of users ha

Well, yeah, you always have tracking. What I was more imagining is where if you are in some cube-hell and your boss walked by and saw you on some website typing away, it is easily recognizable. But if you had Outlook up, typing away, it isn

Posting by email makes complete sense. Think of how many office workers spring upon something they want to post, but opening a webbrowser may be tracked or their boss may see or something. Though, having it be the driving selling feature...

Interesting, sort of like the US "Millions of Toilets Flushing in each city" at the end of the Superbowl or the last episode of MASH. Still, as may people have asked... why hasn't this been automated? If a guy watching a screen can decide o

Yes, they do. My previous employer (a Fortune 400 company) was picking up H1B workers like there was no tomorrow. But, I believe it was more to get lower paid employees with more direct oversight than outsourcing while paying less than what

Yeah... feels that way to me. The original Digg page did that as well - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Digg1.6.png I had to fight my anti-DP instincts to sign up on it back then.

Scam? Not exactly, but shady. Growth, I guess. There are ads on TV for another site just like them. Simple concept though, sell bids. When you have reached your profit line, have the robot on your server (that spends no money) stop bidding

It is actually worse than Google maps. It isn't meant to be used to find local businesses. The game plays on the narcisism of its users and is more about getting users to look at the page than it is about getting businesses to buy in. There
