   I like it because it's about technology and it's entertaining. I used to complain about the content but now I accepted what comes up and learned to ignore any title with "2048" in it.

   I thought the characters in Betas were terrible. With the exception of the bearded dude, the rest are horrible. Silicon Valley doesn't seem like it'll be realistic but the acting and writing quality is way way higher.

    There's no way email work like IM. You're missing the I part, instant. Start two conversations on two different devices, one convo using email and the other using an IM program. Look at how fast they get out of sync.

    I'm my own employer and I'm doing pretty well/decent. I would rather spend my time making what I have better rather than fixing bugs caused by someone else.

    I think the SSDs and the price are why people are jumping on. Not the marketing. Their marketing is horrid. "You've been developing like a BEAST and your app is ready to go.."

    I would never, ever, spend time testing something that changes my code. Today it changes it one way, tomorrow another. That's like trying to replace the screen on your phone and then complaining that it doesn't work and that Samsu

    I was testing an app I made in Django using sqlite. Virtualenv was complaining about an error. I don't remember what it was but it was completely irrelevant to the DB. Something like couldn't access the virtualenv's python bi

    I find most people who can't/don't ask for more money (assuming they're worth it) let their impostor syndrome through and mentally shackle themselves during negotiations. We all need a little bit of "I'm good a

    Hell yes. Please don't disappear after saying you're thinking of open sourcing this. Also like the other guy said, screenshots would be very nice.
