Sure, they don't last hundreds of years. But the can easily last 100+ years. I'm not sure there is that much difference between 75, 100, or 250 years.

If this is for your primary development machine use the best lenovo thinkpad you can afford plus arch linux.

I'm not trying to be rude, or condescending, but if you've been trying to break into web development for over a decade you're doing something wrong. It could be that you haven't learned how to get hired. I am convinced, I could take someone

No, you're right. But from your comment "it doesn't take that long.." its clear to me we're thinking about this in two different ways. You're saying, "Here's how long it would take me..." hourly * estimate. I'm saying, "Here's how to add mo

I think that's far. I mostly posted because I don't want people to believe that $5k is the most you could get for this project. There are infinite ways you could add a ton of value to this project that would be worth more than $5k. Automati

There are many people who would call $2500 their two day rate. So, $10k+ doesn't seem that far fetched for a project of this complexity that delivers business value of some sort.

I think you're probably right. The biggest problem I see is storage if you hack something together. Not just raw storage, because that is an issue, but how fast you can clear the buffer and get the image to disk.

I don't even need to be drinking, but sometimes I'll fat finger it a few times and get frustrated. The only way I can get logged in is to type really really fast.

Does anyone know how close prosumer/off the shelf technology can get to reproducing this? I've seen 1000fps on prosumer cameras, before, but are we close to 5,000 even on sub-$1000 cameras?

I took the "open source" to be sarcastic, not an actual comment on the licensing structure.

I think tptacek and patio11's arguments are a bit more nuanced, when you look at the context and which side of the transaction they are on. For example, patio11's recommendation to use themeforest. I don't think either of them would have a

Most people don't know about IRC. I know that makes your head explode, but most of the designers I've talked to either thought it was a social chatroom or have never even heard of it. If designers, our counter-parts, don't know about IRC ho

I'm not sure your State analogy works. From what I can tell this is a private party agreement, which is essentially a contract. It has nothing to do with justice or laws of any sort. You agreed that you wouldn't pirate content, when you sig

I'm pretty sure you don't. In fact, I'd go so far as to say, framing it terms of another developer will hurt you if you are charging more. If you are delivering $100,000 in business value, and you charge $20,000 for it it is a win for the

I'm not sure I'm willing to make this argument yet, but I think there is at least something to stand on to say, "Yeah, but they can be too efficient." Perhaps, not in the case of this example. But think about GPS tracking. Before if you wan

One way of viewing the bible is descriptive rather than prescriptive on this issue. For example, the bible says that all sin is equal, but not how to judge or punish that sin. That makes sense in the context of there only being one Judge.

You can use something like this: http://www.feedmyinbox.com/ It's not free if you want to really use their scheduler, but I've found if you add the RSS feeds, they tend to be delivered overnight.

How much of your advice do you think is applicable to freelancers who moonlight on occasion. Do you think anyone would go for a 'nights and weekends' ( 25 hours ) weekly rate?

Learn x the hard way takes a very sandbox approach. Dont expect it to just click, just keep pushing until it makes sense.

It allows founders to take money off the table without selling out to a company who would have interests other than growing github.

I dont disagree, but I think ask.com, yahoo q&a, reddit and even to some extent metafilter as a better fit for those types of questions.
