I cannot tell you how much I wish all designers worked this way. I spend more time cutting PSDs than I do building the backend of the site (which is what I am actually hired to do).

It's just an HTML/CSS/JS sandbox with collaborative features, similar to jsfiddle, which I believe is more well known (at least, among the people I work with). I haven't used jsbin before, but the interface looks nice, and the redesign is p

I've been using this for a couple of months now and can confirm it makes managing a complex WordPress deployment much simpler. It is used not only by Knewton's developers, but also their non- (or less-) technical staff. Congrats for gettin

Based on LinkedIn it looks like he's in Tennessee. (This info is available publicly, you don't even need to be logged into LinkedIn to see it, so hopefully I'm not viewed as violating anyone's privacy :)

I did the same, but I am confused. There appears to be a novel coming out with the same name as that short story.. I guess they must be related--I'm certainly interested in reading the longer version when it is released.

I'd love to take that $20-40k and put it towards a company that does nothing but monitor websites like Funny Junk and issue takedown notices on the behalf of the content owners. Companies like this probably exist, but I'm sure they don't co

Just tried the various one-liners mentioned in the comments on a hardy (8.04) release using mysql 5.0.51a and could not get in. This is a slicehost box, so I'm assuming that can be extrapolated to mean that anyone using ubuntu on slicehost

There is a free book online by an ex member called A Piece of Blue Sky. Once I started reading I couldn't stop.. it a very compelling story and it covers a lot of history in the broader sense (not limited to this specific member's experien

Some data here: http://jquerypp.com/#fastfix Not comprehensive, but it's something. They also include a link to: http://jsperf.com/jquery-event-fix Which lets you benchmark yourself (I'm getting an error in Chrome on OSX).

It seems like that would be a lot more work than just figuring it out the right way..

Thanks for the tip, I'll try that.

I just tried that, but still get redirected back to https. I even tried using curl and I get a 302.

I'm getting the same thing. I wasn't 100% sure I had it correct, but since other, similar URLs issue a 404 this makes me think we got the URL correct. Either I am not seeing how this relates, or they are having issues.

If I charge hourly, the better I get the less money I make. I can offset this by raising my rate, but a high rate can be intimidating to clients. They'd rather hear that a project will cost them $1,000 and they can assume that is 20 hours

I find that if I work late (~11pm or so) I can't fall asleep for a few hours. Programming gets my mind wound up and wired in a way nothing else does, and I need some real relaxation time before I can sleep. Unfortunately I find myself work

You are correct that it is all hypothetical based on who is responsible. However, you are incorrect that this is related in any way to Google's own T&Cs. The post links to the Mocality T&C page and says whoever is responsible is v

I'm not familiar with AppEngine at all, but could you really not craft your own headers? Isn't it python's urlib or similar?

The post mentions that Google was violating their T&Cs: When we started this investigation, I thought that we’d catch a rogue call-centre employee, point out to Google that they were violating our Terms and conditions (sections 9.12 and

Sailthru ( https://www.sailthru.com/ ) is a good one. API is easy to use and they offer a level of analytics that is far more advanced than what most other companies can offer. Disclaimer: I am not a Sailthru employee but I have done a nu

I run into this problem all the time. I usually hit the "More search tools" link and then limit my search to the past year or so (depending on the issue). Also including specific version numbers helps as well.. but maybe this update will m

I don't know where you got your "literal" definition but that is certainly not the colloquial definition where I come from. It just means general inebriation without implying any particular substances ( http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin

I agree with you, I am just betting (hoping?) that the current crash is temporary and they will recover in the near future. Their revenues are also down significantly (I think it was something around 40%) which can't be explained by large i

Their servers send an indication in the http headers: Server: Apache/2.2.21 (Amazon) I guess you'd need to crawl the web and look for those headers. Or maybe you could look at IP addresses? It would certainly be difficult to do with any k

I see their stock crash today as a pretty temporary thing. I bought a lot of shares today around 200 which I hope is close to the bottom of this decline. AWS growth combined with their new hardware combined with the holiday season should g

I personally run my applications entirely through index.php but your argument does not make sense. You can easily include one file at the top of all your scripts and have that handle things like autoloading, authentication, etc. Then if yo
