What is your startup? I used to work in the same space (albeit for a non-profit).

Because its fully managed. Can't say for sure if its worth it, but I have heard good things about them.

Try Gossamer Threads ( https://gt.net/ ). What are your reasons for not using Linode or DIgitalOcean anyway -- do you work for a university library or other public institution?

I'm looking forward to a more stable API. I think a lot of things are solidified by this 0.8.0 release, but working up to it I've had to deal with a lot of upstream changes that forced me to refactor a lot of code. Of course, it

This is the first I've heard of Meteor APM, looks awesome! This line confused me: > Using simpler queries will usually mean there’s less work for Meteor to do to decide if a change affects it. Is this right? Previous Meteor optimiz

Well why can't we go further? We have the technology for self-driving cars, and public transportation that doesn't suck, but for a multitude of reasons we don't utilize this. And beautiful living spaces really is a superfic

Thanks for being patronizing, however I grew up in the country outside of (coincidentally) Philadelphia and understand owning and driving automobiles is necessary e.g. when you live on a farm. I don't think anyone would ever be agains

I've lived in Honolulu for a couple years, and IMO its a shining example of bad infrastructure. The public transport is quite a bad actually and efforts to build a rail system have been constantly delayed by corruption, NIMBYs, and bu

Maybe not carpooling, but proponents of self-driving cars often talk about how their efficiency (i.e. algorithmic efficiency in how they drive) would greatly ease traffic congestion. Much of the issue with traffic is just bad drivers (inef

Besides the obvious alternatives in cities, having more efficient cars (i.e., self-driving cars that can algorithmically ease congestion and find efficient ways to carpool) would be a big step forward. Take a drive on any American highway

I wish driving and owning a car started to become discouraged the same way sin taxes and bylaws are discouraging cigarette smoking. Sitting outside on a bench in Honolulu yesterday, I looked around and saw that half of what I was seeing we

Many universities link these disciplines (and Psychology, and Linguistics) explicitly -- Its called Cognitive Science. I majored in it and couldn't imagine a better thing to have studied.

This has already happened in countless other industries (airlines, banking to name a couple which have moved most customer interaction to the web). There's no reason it shouldn't happen with the food industry, there is just too m

There's no reason they should -- its either poor application planning or lazy development. Javascript-heavy web apps that use hash fragments or pushState can (and should) use fallbacks to allow navigation without javascript enabled (e

I've gotten spiderable to work okay but yeah it does kindof suck. According to the Meteor roadmap, MDG is looking for a better solution but its slated for a 1.1 release (i.e. server-side rendering).

The project was based off of the CMS I've been building in my spare time: https://github.com/mcrider/azimuth . There are probably a lot of things I could do to optimize collections with lots of data but i've

by mcrider 13y ago
Sure, thats Meteor 101 ;) Still, as a developer you need to decide what collections you want to publish (and which parts of each collection) so as to make the application run blazing-fast but also make sure you're only publishing stuf

I ran a meteor app as an entry system for a local design awards show last month. Everything went swimmingly well and people loved the fast app-like interface. The only place I had trouble was on the admin side where large amounts of items

Or the remote-transmission chrome plugin, or setting up transmission to watch a dropbox folder for torrents, etc. -- lots of great ways to interact with the transmission daemon.

Meteor.js. I'm surprised at how young it still is but its got an active community and heading in the right direction.

I do the same (I also use TextWrangler because of its awesome file search/replace features). Sublime is certainly a better editor and feels more lightweight, but the debugging tools in RubyMine are absolutely invaluable.

Writing something like "<p>This is a statement with <strong>bold text</strong></p>" does not really translate well to JSON.

At first I thought, and don't see why this couldn't be, a scanner that eats through documents and saves a digital copy of them. This form factor would make digitizing large sets of printed records much more appealing.

Great redesign! I've used mailinator for years but honestly the quality of the old site made it seem almost like a shady operation, like they might mine incoming emails for personal data or passwords. This looks much more professiona

I'm personally a little disappointed it doesn't use Bootstrap or Foundation. A lot of developers are already skilled with those frameworks, and as I'm sure modifications will have to be made to the code of any of the new res

I am working on a CMS for Meteor.js called Azimuth: http://azimuthc.ms Its pretty beta so looking for developer feedback/bug reports/pull requests.

I thought you were referring to the layout, which has been true for some time now...
