Is there a single graph library that targets both web and mobile? I want to keep visual consistency across both my web and mobile app, or can the presented library here generate images?

Congrats Linode. I have been a customer for many years. Why could there not be a $5 1 GB plan? I have quite a few instances for which I don't need even 1 GB, let alone 2. Doubling the RAM is great but what about storage? Why is RAM and

I agree with the sentiment of this post. I have also worked at small startups in the past for which AWS is overkill but they insist on being on AWS because they use it as a selling point to investors (I know, this sounds silly), i.e. they a

In the http://pcpartpicker.com/p/49cd8d list, are you sure the video card fits in there? It's a BIG video card. I have a 950 sitting here on my desk and I assume 960 is similar size, if not the same.

Why not? In PHP you concatenate strings with a "." $total = 'I ate 3 bananas yesterday' . 'and I ate 7 bananas today';

When I saw the title my heart jumped thinking it might be referring to "humour". Thank God it's only about tea...

I think the problem with interview questions is the following; Asking candidates about algorithmic problems is great, if that's what you're hiring for. However, what has happened over the past decade is that a lot of companies who

Is "Air" a brand? I would think of "Air" in the context of Apple as a "product line" and product lines come and go. When the Air was first launched it made sense to differentiate it from the other Apple product

Do you happen to know what will happen to Indie licences? I have an Indie licence for both iOS and Android. Are these ongoing if I don't cancel them or is the pricing simply set to $0?

When you switch payment providers, how are you going to obtain new payment tokens for subscriptions? I.e. Stripe will give you a payment token for processing but if you switch to another provider you do not have the card details to create a

I have become a big fan of XUbuntu as well. When Ubuntu phased out Gnome 2 I looked for alternatives and I found XUbuntu. Like you said, it's a better Gnome 2 than Gnome 2 ever was. This is what my XUbuntu desktop looked like a few yea

People are very proud of them selves when they find a bug. It makes them feel extremely good about themselves. While gloating they will say things like "these Muppets don't even know how to write software". So when they find

For some people it just comes down to expectations, everything today is supposed to be trivial since everyone seems to be launching websites and startups all over the place and becoming gazillionaires overnight. Out of the off-the-self soft

Pages define the structure of your site, posts define the content of your site. But having said that, posts have their own templates that might make them look very similar to pages.

If the server you're targeting is quite slow in terms of sending a response back, let's say its 500ms on average, isn't this an expensive exercise? I mean, AWS Lambda charges for every 100ms of utilisation.

Nice. Would it be possible to randomize the columns and rows, that way you can increase the difficulty.

I don't see technical debt as a problem, I see the lack of refactoring as part of a software teams culture as a problem. Technical debt will be incurred, if you like it or not. Even if you spend a long time on architecture and abstract

The way I screen a client is by getting them to write a brief in an email. The reasons I do this is; a) Its easy for clients to blurt stuff out over the phone without a second thought. It's impossible for me to take accurate notes on t

These sort of interview question posts really get to me. It's all just a power trip thing by mostly little people; "we're on this side of the table and you're on that side and it's a great opportunity for us to feel

The New York Times is another one I can think of. I'm not against pay walls or ad blocking, but if, as a content provider, you choose to implement these sorts of "devices" than you can at least expect your content not to be s

There seems to be a bit of opinion and a bit of BEM [1] in this style guide. Personally I have been using BEM for larger projects and in that context it works quite well. [1] https://en.bem.info/articles/why-bem-in-a-nu

I love Linode and I agree with you here. It does depend on the situation and I don't think it's necessary to start sending emails for each bit of down time, I mean, if you're savvy enough to run a VPS you should be able to mo
