The main issue, for me, is that "Gmvault Gmail Backup" and the logo are unbalanced. The logo is too big, and its colors could be more sophisticated. If those things were cleaned up it would look fine (unless you're allergic to boostrap).

I would say it's because of consequence and anonymity, people do it because they won't be fined or arrested and no one knows about it. People will do all sorts of crazy things if the system allows them to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanf

Not sure in the US but I remember hearing around £200 for day-time airplay (more listeners) to £40 at late-night is what an artist can expect to earn from a play on the BBC.

To paraphrase James Taylor being a musician is a blue collar job, but at least blue collar jobs pay minimum wage. If the attitude conveyed in this site keeps up independent content creators are just going to say it's not worth it and all yo

Nice to see chapter 4 on setting up a dev environment early on, many clojure tutorials (and even a book I have) leave this out, or until the end. Working within a project is how you'll write real-world code so you might as well start with i

This is pretty cool, with this app (and a lot of other HTML5 apps) I often have an issue where it acts as if I'm trying to select text as if I was going to copy and paste. The result is the entire app gets the 'text-selected' blue overlay.

In my free time I produce electronic music. I was just browsing DJ Lucky Date's YouTube channel and thinking "man he has put in a lot time". In the last six months or so he has blown up, but the work is there for all to see. Edit: the link

That's what I do, well not always 5am... but I try! Any way ever since exercise became a habit I no longer need caffeine after lunch. The bonus is if you're super busy then you can skip the workout and do some extra work.

Speaking of soccer in terms of entertainment it is almost as bad as Hollywood and in some areas worse. Like Hollywood all online deals are careful not on step on established players toes (DirectTV, TimeWarner, et al). You can pay $15/month

This is great. Docs, for me, are so much better with examples. I'm not the biggest PHP fan but their community powered docs never left me wondering how to use, and alternative uses for, a function.

I use both, I think it came out of not being able to edit eclipse's themes easily. So static languages I code in light themes and dynamic I go to the dark side. I've converting to one or the other but I think it helps with the mental mode s

They exist, but engineering pays so much more, while still filling the need to create so 'Desingineers' choose development over design.

While I think this is a plus, it's still very depressing for the US. Are American schools really so bad that a country of 300 million can't churn out enough tech/science employees? I'm a freshly minted American (from Canada) and in my 20 pe

I envy that the author learnt programming and web development now as opposed to even a few years ago. Without devolving into "in my day I walked ten miles in the snow just to compile"; it's just so much more pleasant now. Stack Overflow, He

This is great, it's similar to Flash's display list. I actually think a display list should be part of the canvas spec. There's really no reason to have a bunch of competing display list libs and it could be optimized if it was part of the

Dart compiles to JavaScript, and the language is pretty standard stuff, if you know any C style language you can pick it up quickly.
