Was about to post the same thing. It contrasts with everything else on the website in every way. I'm actually really curious what the rationale could possibly be.

There's a bit of late 00's-style chrome junk in the default design – would love to see this smoothed out.

Meanwhile, living in the 'burbs' is the cultural equivalent of living in Siberia as far as I'm concerned. I spent < $20k last year and had a great time in New York.

I used to work in the largest brick building in Canada. In parts of the building that were under renovation, the walls were open and hundred year-old seaweed and/or newspapers were falling out. Pretty cool.

Pro tip: when people say "build a network," they really mean "make friends in your and related industries." Like, actual friends: people you go out for drinks with and enjoy talking to. The trust you build, as friends, w

The problem is thus: one should, when found to be in alignment with the mainstream, or in other words, part of a monoculture, ask themselves whether they have probed deeply enough into the question of how one should live a life, for true wi

Combo of Quicksilver + Finder + knowing the keyboard shortcuts works ok for me. Quicksilver partially covers for the lack of address-bar – CMD+Space and type the name of the folder you want to go to. I suppose Spotlight can serve the same p

Ok, let's get things straight. Watching this is nothing like walking to the park and standing under a tree. It's cinema. It's a completely different experience. You wouldn't say "why would you watch a Tarkovsky fi

None of the existing answers seem particularly convincing to me. Here's how I have chosen: pick the framework that is most popular with the people you want to work with, projects you want to work on, or companies you want to work at. I

It's pretty clear from the post that he's talking about web development. And I don't think your 'all eggs in one basket' argument makes much sense. JavaScript will always be the (or, a) scripting language for the br

My hope is that this is partly the case due to what is often lamented as an endemic sense of entitlement in Generation Y. Capable, well-off, "smart creatives," having been raised to believe that they can and will make a positive i

Yes, but you still then live with the idea that there could be an email you should read at any moment. I admire the self-discipline of those who can resist the urge to check, but I have never been able to. For me, simply using Trello and
