Lots of good geeks and networking possibilities here. One big difference between FL and MA (besides the weather) is that in MA we're generally up-front about it when we dislike people. I much prefer it. Saves wasting time on people who don'

does anyone know if an alternate port has to be specified with this? Is there a reason it can't just be run on 80?

Yeah, I have to agree on both points. I feel like I missed a memo about Flickr going down. AFAIK Flickr isn't even leaking, never-mind sinking... Am I wrong? Have I missed something? And API is one of the things that makes Flickr great, Sna

First off, very nice. I'm working on an app this would be perfect for, assuming the performance is good on mobile devices. With that said, I have to agree with @dangrossman I don't see any Parallax effect. I just see nice sliding pages. [ed

Initial thought: cool idea, but why would I want a tool to generate a css layout that wasn't responsive css in an age where mobile devices can NOT be ignored?

There are two problems with your statement 1) VERSION is a horrible name for a non-transient environment variable. It's fine if you're just using it on a per command basis (as rails does with 'rake db:migrate VERSION=123') but some app has

Why are they all straight shreds? Bad guys don't know how to go to Staples.com and buy a Diamond shredder? Sure, it's useful to be able to decode those but if you're going to throw $50,000 on the table why not at least ask for something sli

I'm not sure how I feel about that. It just seems so useful to have it, BUT I think there's definitely a strong argument to be made for your proposition. Alternately, why not just switch to a functional language where, it seems, ambiguity a

To me this isn't a problem with nil. This is a problem with the create method. create either returns you the object or something ambiguous (nil). it COULD return you the object or something useful, like an error class, or an error code, or

>What is my client to think? That you're trying to screw them. They will then proceed to hire someone else who will happily do in a few months what you claimed would take years. It'll probably involve throwing out all your code and star

I haven't, but one nice thing about 1Passwd is that I'm pretty sure that even if you don't use .mac it put your passwords on your iPhone (if you have one) with 1Passwd Touch for use when you're away from your computer. Overall it looks like

I avoid the hardcovers except for those of very few authors because, they're physically awkward and heavier, however, I have reread every hardcover novel I've purchased at least once. In fact I've reread almost every novel I own at least on

That's because it's not a DRM laden monster and the distribution of music is such that there are many alternative ways to get songs you've purchased onto one without involving DRM. Unfortunately the same can not be said for books even thoug

a few things. First, you do make good points about the free books but as I've said before the vast majority of the free books out there, including public domain, simply do not interest me. Yes, Shakespeare would be nice, but I've already go

by masukomi 18y ago
exactly what non-DRM protected books in open format are you suggesting? The ones in the public domain? I honestly wouldn't. I can think of maybe one I've wanted to read in the past 10 years. As for your iPod argument, it's flawed too becaus

Are you kidding?! $200k in Boston would be a freaking steal. People would almost literally kill for that. I'm in cambridge and all the 2 bedroom condos on the blocks around me are $450k and up. And that's a CONDO with shared walls.

I dunno, thousands of people reading that you're a hypocrite does tend to have an effect. They have two options: 1) do nothing, and watch mobile phone developers either move to whatever API steps in to fill the void or go rogue and use thei

If that held up in anything beyond the short term then Amazon would have killed their associates program years ago. The fact of the matter is that the associates program may cost them 5% of the sales but they believe it makes them significa
