   Yea, I read that thinking the same thing. It's also possible that, regardless of how this was perceived internally, it's being touted as a great anecdote because now is not the time for a 'Steve Jobs is a dick' post.

   I had to roll back because of some minor issues with my setup but other than that there's not a big difference. I recommend upgrading.

   Here are a few bash_profile functions I use often: #prints IPs from terminal on OS X function ip() { IP=`ifconfig -a | grep inet | grep -v inet6 | grep -v 127.0.0.1 | awk '{print $2}'` echo $IP } #instantl

   http://knottablenecklaces.com makes me about enough to cover costs and google ads. I'm not sure if this counts around here since it's not a software product.

   As others have said this works out to $21-24/outfit...but that's a rental fee, you don't get to keep the outfit to pass down to other kids (of your own or of your family and friends). I suppose there's some value in being able to trade in t

    Isn't this the same way mint.com and other similar services access your financial data?

    I don't really understand this but I'm not sure which questions to ask. What's the point? Is this just a smear campaign? Why is this getting upvotes?

    I would be stunned to learn that anyone on the Google+ team doesn't have an invite since I'm not sure how any member of the team could work on a product they don't have access to.

    I'm confused by the numbers here: "$65.8 billion in liquid assets at the end of March that have probably swelled to more than $70 billion by now." "COO Tim Cook pointed to the $3.9 billion Apple prepaid last summer to three unnamed supplier

    CoffeeScript has some nice benefits but in my opinion not having to deal close curly braces or add semi colons hardly qualifies as a reason to use one language over another.

    Javascript has a few gotchas like this one. These are annoying for people new to the language but after knowing they exist they're easily avoided.

    I've been a vegetarian for a few years after hearing more about the cruelty, environmental impact, etc. We get local food fairly often but I should really make more of an effort.

    I like the idea but the only way I would pay for it is if it provided some amount of value that I couldn't get elsewhere. I like reading online.

    I like the apple wireless usb keyboard without the numeric keypad. It's got a small width while still being comfortable meaning there's more room on my desk, I can slide it easily but it stays in place while I'm typing, the chicklet keys a

    Same feature set as http://repositoryhosting.com with a higher price point (they're at $6/month now for 2GB). They don't have a CLI or anything as far as I know but they do offer more storage space at $1/GB/month which is pretty nice if

    Old and poorly written but interesting all the same. I never saw this the first time around and it's a great story that makes me like Walmart even more so I'm grateful for the repost.

    My biggest issue with rails was more getting my development environment setup. Constant gem compilation issues, I spent hours resolving them. Aside from that I haven't had much trouble stepping into the language or the new environment.

    In general I'm not sure but for programming specifically it should help to do the book example and then code your own similar example. Save it in a folder where you can easily look stuff up if you forget it. Most IDE's also have a clips fe
