That's a good question and so far it has been the most challenging thing to communicate this well, or, in a concise way. So, any feedback is welcome. When an application sends transactional messages, software teams often integrate with

I spend a good 3 months on getting an initial version out of my latest side project called Postways [1] and launched it just before xmas last year. Since then I have been focusing on on-boarding users and just improving the service overall.

Shameless plug here.. I've been working on a service that kinda solves a similar problem, called Postways [1]. Even though Postways also provides a unified API for sending email, SMS and mobile push, the main focus of Postways is actua

I was working for a start up some years ago where we were sending a lot of transactional messages over email, sms and mobile push to our customers. There were lots of great solutions around that solved the infrastructure problem (i.e, the p

I'm interested to know if the context of the role that is interviewed for is taken into account. I mean, the skills required to implement a large scale distributed database engine are very different to implementing, say, an accounting

The guy in the video says: "You don't really want to be relying on regulations, we learned all the way back in 2009 that those subsidies can be removed anytime." What exactly do regulations have to do with subsidies? Aren&#x2

I agree with you. But what do you expect from a system that allows you to create real-estate out of thin air?

And the reason it doesn't come with a Linux distro (instead of FreeDOS) is so that they don't imply it works with Linux.

I love it that you can customise it to have FreeDOS instead of Windows: http://store.hp.com/us/en/ConfigureView?catalogId=10051&lang... Edit: PS, is there a way to get this thing in Australia? Their aussie web

Totally agree. I think the upward scrolling plays into a theme of the game itself: "JOURNEY UPWARD TO THE SUMMIT". But yeah, not very intuitive. It also takes a long time before you get to the video. I was just about the give up s

What I find interesting is when I discuss MongoDB with other developers is that (so far) all of them seem to think that there should only be "one" database. When I explain to other developers that it's OK to use an SQL databa

You do not need a "better" design. Visually it looks just fine. Focus on the functionality and marketing instead.

Sorry, I don't have a link to some beautiful code. I assume that as a developer you are interested in solving (business?) problems through the act of writing software? It isn't much different than being a painter I guess. To be ab
