Even if diaspora fails completely, all the investors will have still gotten something else for their money. The fact that diaspora overshoot their initial 10K goal by such a wide margin coupled with all the ensuing publicity the story is ge

I'm on a danish keyboard; the programmer-handy keys like "[" and "]" have been moved to shortcuts (alt-9 for "]") to make room for the danish letters "æøå", so some of the combo's that are easy to make on english keyboards are next to impos

The author recommends remapping "kj" to ESC. I've remapped caps lock to ESC, which I think is a far better use of that useless button, and a hack i recommend to everybody i know who uses VIM. I could never understand that VIM choose to put

Darnit, no Denmark :( I think it's a good idea, and i'd subscribe if my country was supported.

Maybe it's just me, but i was hoping for deeper insight into how the device feels in day-to-day usage, not just a list of features that i might as well have read on Apples info pages. Stuff like: how the device feels to sit with for longer

The SQL looks way easier (and shorter). I hope somebody will take it upon themselves to write an sql-to-mongo-mapreduce compiler.

HARO is a good business for Peter Shankman, I just googled it and first link says $800K/year around the start of 2009[1]. The point being that it's probably not so much about him not liking that you mentioned him[2], as the fact that you're

But beware that you'll have to give your e-mail address to get the results. It's a trap.

HTML5 is not a valid alternative to Flash. Sure, there is some overlap between them, but there are way more differences. It's (like so much else) like comparing an apple to an orange.

I actually think that the period to end blocks syntax is one of the most interesting things about it. It's such a small thing, but i find it quite intriguing.

I love the fact that we've gotten speed of innovation back into web browsers, and i wouldn't ever want to go back. However, i also fondly remember a time not long ago where all i had to do was to develop in IE6 and I'd be sure it would work

It's not a matter of ensuring that people are good at view sourcing -- it's a matter of filtering out the people who don't even know how to do that.

I, for one, welcome a django-like templates for .net -- Especially since it's open source. I looked for exactly this half a year ago, and couldn't find anything. I ended up writing my own template language, which i never would have done if

WriteRoom is cool for sure. If you ever need to "upgrade" a bit, then i've personally found Ulysses to be the next logical step. It has a fullscreen mode akin to writeroom, but also supports semantic marking for later output generation + sy

I looked into using @font-face for a project a week or two ago. I ended up not using it because most fonts (i tried a lot) looks really bad anti-aliasing turned off; especially at the small (body-text) font sizes. If only there was a way to

Years ago, i wrote a compressor for javascript. I called it "Arnold" because it was strong and squeezed javascript into a smaller shape.

My spam avoidance scheme is to own my own domain, and then have *@mydomain.com go to my inbox, so i can create disposable addresses for any use at any time. For instance, I always sign up with [servicename].account@mydomain.com and only eve

Another way is to hold down option when switching app by clicking another app's window or dock icon. This will hide the current app and all its windows, and it's already enabled by default on os x.

Slightly off-topic, but the cd-company mentioned (swiftcd.com) has a brilliant frontpage headline: "At SwiftCD, we create custom CDs and DVDs one at a time, and ship them world-wide directly to your customers." Nobody that ends up at that w
