I hope more supposed "journalists" come out and criticize Nate Silver for his methods. Then maybe we can start having a real discussion based around facts and data with real analysis across the board. Take for instance discussions around so

How easy is it for me to upgrade? I have been using Django REST framework for a while and this upgrade path seems scary. I looked at the migration guide but it doesn't say anything about what I should be specifically concerned with.

Thank you so much for releasing this. I can definitely see a use for it and will look into it in the near future.

Downvote more...I'm greedy and want to be the first to use Steam on Linux. On a more serious note this bodes really well for gaming and software distribution on linux.

Took me a second to figure out this whole DNT business. So basically it is just an HTTP header your browser sends to the server that tells it not to track. Seems kind of like the wrong way to do it. If I was some nefarious website wouldn't

It might be slightly odd bringing up the topic of women in programming but in a few decades it might seem archaic that we were even worried about the problem. Kids today (both male and female) grow up with so much technology around them. My

Why wouldn't you compare it to Dropbox? It makes total sense. As a photographer wouldn't I just drag my photos to a dropbox folder and it would be backed up? I generate a lot of data but not an incredible amount that it can't be backed up t

I am genuinely excited for Microsoft. The surface is rather refreshing. I generally am not a big tablet user. I find them kind of clunky for getting any real work done. But I do think there probably is a tablet out there for me...I just hav

Amusing to see other gatech people here on here. I remember taking a systems class as well either 2nd or 3rd year (CS '03). Pretty much exactly what this is implemented all in C. I talk to my other friends at CS schools and lately some of t

It is possible that ebay is worried about the new crop of companies that are slowly nipping away at its core business model. Specifically people are discovering things to buy through other means and not necessarily searching for them direct

It depends what the buyer wants. A clean code base is generally not the first thing I would look at when buying a company. Fundamentals are much more important such as revenue. Focus on improving your fundamentals. You put effort into clean

Is there some type of injection vulnerability here? Is it possible to attack a node.js server that creates objects via some API and give it a name that overwrites an internal javascript property? Your content would be the javascript injecte

If you understand why someone making $120k /yr would quit and join a startup then you get the idea. If you want a technical cofounder then you have to view it as the first hurdle in your business. If you can't even pass this hurdle what mak

Of course you use less data when you don't need to download anything important...like oh say, roads, important subway stations, or cities!

The reality is though that even with how screwed up the spec is HTTP is an enormous success. It got more complex as time went on but in the early days it was fairly simple. Now contrast that with SAML, OAuth2, WS-Security (anyone care to ad

This kind of got me thinking: What would it take for me to try my hand at developing a desktop app today? I am a developer. For the most part I've been doing web applications (with a bit of mobile). This is mostly because I feel there isn't

I am absolutely ecstatic that Google is attempting to build the next generation wired network. Why does this matter? Well owning the pipe is always a good move especially in the face of net neutrality. But there are all sorts of other tie i

Whether you need a non technical founder is the wrong question to ask. Ask yourself what your business needs to succeed: - Is it a developer or designer? - A marketing genius? Most businesses need some soft skills. This is where I see the n

Diamonds are super easy to purchase online so that isn't the problem. I am fairly certain the real issue is the DeBeers marketing machine. "A diamond is forever". There is a whole essay on this that was an awesome read. Made me never want t

There are so many industries where entrenched groups have so many advantages they stop feeling the need to innovate. Off the top my head: - Insurance of all kinds - Payments (visa/mastercard) - Mattresses - I have no idea why I put this her

That is incredibly myopic. Almost to the point that your statement implies you are above civil servants. I certainly believe that some city workers would benefit greatly from macs. And how about programmers? Web and graphic designers? Not e

These are the kinds of battles that break out when your business model is truly disruptive. The price of taxis is held artificially high and really it is a loss for the consumer. We are left paying the higher prices for what should be a rel

Postmates has a lot of similarity with Uber: they are both moving toward the grail of an on-demand logistics platform. Where I am really excited is to see these companies figure out all the logistic hurdles and then provide an API on top of
