As someone maintaining packages on pypi, I can tell you that demand for Python 3 support is growing and people are beginning to port packages for their own needs. I expect we'll see python 3 overtake python 2 in new projects within 3 y

The same reason everyone was down on Javascript 10 years ago: The development tools, APIs, and runtime were unpleasant. Unfortunately for flash developers it doesn't look actionscript will be following in Javascript's footsteps.

If it's a console app... isn't the full-screen bit up to me?

If I understand correctly, iPhone and iPad run ARM processors... does this mean you can now use PyPy on iOS?

They've written in the past that the UI is essentially a webview, so I think that's a fair assessment edit : also, I've successfully nuked the app at least once by evaluating document.write (or similar) in the IDE. heh

I look forward to writing (essentially vim-) plugins for light table in javascript. Some day soon? Extensions were mentioned on the blog about a year ago ( http://www.chris-granger.com/2012/04/15/light-tables-numbers... ), but as far as I c

I made a CD (yes, like a music one) and discovered that social media (myspace at the time) was a powerful marketing tool. Didn't make it to $10k, but did have a net profit of a few thousand which wasn't bad for high school.

I think it's most likely that large institutions (who are most able to pay) are willing to pay a premium to avoid the hassle of adding and removing seats from their license with every change in staff. It was probably also starting to be inc

Wow. In retrospect, when we needed general conditionals in CSS, we got just one, very specialized one, and the rest was swept under the rug. How did I miss that until now?

Cleverness for it's own sake may be a bad thing, but cleverness in general isn't bad. The really important thing is that when you do something clever, you ensure that people who use your clever function/module/library/webservice don't have

Shipping doesn't get you on the homepage of HN anymore; having a grabbing title does. Whether that's good or bad, it's true and nshen succeeded on both fronts.

Honestly... this made things confusing without improving my reading ability. a lot of people actually like scrolling. So many people in fact, that they successfully pressured Apple to add scrolling as an alternative to pagination in iBooks.

I use safari, and I use the "two-finger double-tap" all the time, which works the same as double-tap on iOS (zooms in so the double-tapped content takes the full width of the screen/browser) I'm 26 years old, but I'm only going to read one

Downloaded the app, and it is quite smooth. Only lags when the ads are changing... I wonder if that would be any different if it were native?

I think the issue is that you're thinking of the customer as being a person, who you move along the sales process. think of "Customer" in this context as being Customer with a Capital "C". The General idea of customers. As in, "Who's your C

That's true and that's part of the reason I built it. It's not intended to be a replacement for A/B testing, but a compliment. A/B testing is great for lots of things, but it's not always the right tool for the job. I use the term A/B testi

I agree that sample size is important and that's why you still need 200+ responses. It's a hybrid between a survey and an A/B test. You ask a question, but you get to find out about more than just the one variation that the person is served
