Ascetically, these look very good. As a developer who spends a lot of time typing, I prefer using a keyboard with mechanical switches so I use a Das Keyboard. That being said, for my Mac Mini build server that is connected to my TV, these

One of the interesting parts about Moments, is that I used TweetBot and that feature is nowhere to be found. That being said, I don't even feel like I'm missing anything. It seems like ownership of the product experience is frag

Jan Koum on Twitter when their app crossed 1 billion users on the Google Play Store[0]. Not sure what their current team size is, but it seems like it's around 40-50. Last year at Startup School, Jan said the backend team 7-8 people

It seems like with such a strong engineering team, Facebook should have really built their own phone. It's impressive that they re-wrote a lot of the major components the iOS development process and optimized them for their scale. I t

I'm always so paranoid of this at any of my employers so I go through great lengths ensure everything is separated. It's a lot more work in terms of managing your stuff, but can simplify situations like these. I always keep my w

I was thinking the exact same thing. In 2006, this company called BugLabs made this device called a Bugbox[1] which was a modular CPU that you could attach components to. It had GPS, basic touch screen, Wi-Fi and a few other features plus

I really like the bottom section where they are highlighting individual projects from members of their team. I think that really helps instill a sense of ownership and would definitely me make me excited about working there if I was featur

Yep, your'e right; I was attempting to make a joke. I guess I should have known better based on the forum.

It looks like someone didn't read Paul Grahams essay: Change Your Name[1]. As far as the service, I feel inextricably linked to PayPal right now. I used PayPal through the early Ebay years and while I don't have any money in my a

I'm working on a similar idea, but as a way to predict personality temperament. The idea is to use a simple SVM from machine learning and code multiple contextual inputs into the feature vector. The resulting labels correspond to a u

CoreData doesn't behave the same way Firebase does. CoreData and CloudKit are more like Facebook's Parse or Google's Mobile Backend.

@mdo - Thanks for continuing the great work on this framework. I just listened to the Design Details podcast [1] with you on it and it was great to hear about the evolution of the project (And where the purple came from). [1] - http:&#x2F

This is actually one of the companies in SV that I really like; I would love to work there, but I don't think they have a lot of mobile application development; That being said I still congratulate them because I love their product.
