I wish you could pay for a developer account just so they will bother to manage their bug tracking system.

Sounds like you had a great team. It takes a lot of blood sweat and tears (and time) to build a high performing team. Too often these teams just get broken up or disintegrate. Think of what you could have done were you supported as a tea

I started reading with that feeling of dread that this was going to be another indictment of tech conference misogyny that would make me feel sad for the world, my daughters, and our profession. How delightful to hear this inspirational re

I like the concept. But the content is crap. I read a lot of fantasy and scifi. When I went into the list of top rated books in that genre, so many of them are pulp garbage that look like Twilight fan fiction and the like.

Isn't anyone else simply flabbergasted that the OP has never seen Blade Runner?? I'm not sure how being "too young" can be a valid excuse unless you are under 15 years old.

How will this be monetized? I can't imagine it being free in perpetuity if it catches on. What about security? Passing Facebook user access tokens over http opens them up to being sniffed on the wire, which would allow anyone to impersona

Suggestion: put a link to your main site on your blog site. Or buy referly.com. I couldn't get there from the blog, typed in referly.com, got a Yahoo Under Construction page, and just about dismissed my barely-piqued interest before going

I don't think "I don't like Facebook" is limited to dev-centric populations. I know people who have nothing to do with software development who refuse to get Facebook accounts. And then there are the folks who use Facebook but refuse the

Incorrect. You must request and obtain the extended permission 'email' in order to retrieve the user's email address from Facebook.

The more prevalent variant on this is managers would leave "room" in their review model for themselves. Come in under the curve and you leave room that makes it that much easier for your manager to reward you.

It would be very nice to offer an option to buy away the need for attribution without needing to do so as a one-off request. Glyphicons offers a no brainer price point of $25 to make attribution go away.

You can also get a plain old bring-your-own-phone pay by the month plan from T-Mobile for $30/month that gives you 100 minutes of voice, unlimited texts, and sorta-unlimited data (1st 5GB at 4G and then it degrades)
