Agreed, but one specific point referenced by the Alan Kay quote is building small components that message each other over the loopback interface with UDP... Messages never leaving the original machine and there are fewer places to drop the

Don't most routers support SNMP? Seems like another good vector for data.

This would be a great publicity stunt for Snoop and then he would move on after 3 months. See the documentary Snooplion[1] where he used the Reggae community[2]. [1] http://snooplion.com/ [2] https://en.wikipedia

I agree with brandonwamboldt, mellett68, and tsm; the domain name is useless. If you had a different business name... I think a site that summarizes someone's github contributions from a recruiter / interviewer's perspectiv

Missing a train isn't a big deal if it's every 6 or 8 weeks, so you can delay or stay feature flagged off until the next train leaves the station.

Overall, very cool project! The menu animation is really slow on Firefox 37 on Mac OS X. The way pages load and then more animations happen seems jarring. I've not used any material based apps, so maybe I'm just not used to how th

Using, primarily, the bread doesn't feel like the right way to create a sandwich taxonomy. I think it would be a cluster of characteristics and the most prominent example of that category (say, the hamburger) would often be the categor

I've tried to do this several times since 2010. The deal breaker each time is lacking a reliable real-time "ringer" that one gets with SMS and Voice calls. Perhaps Android / iOS background services have improved enough,
