Beautiful code! I mean, if you program for an enterprise, one of the ways to secure your job is to generate few hundred thousand lines of crap like that and have enterprise heavily use the end product (you need to make it work first). Then

The more time is spent learning something, the better you can use it later. For consumer software, getting stuff done right now without any prior education is important. For developer tools, learning your tools is a necessity to perform t

Then again, git is not a consumer software. Developer should spend some time and learn 5 commands to be productive. But I find this interface interesting, even knowing all command line git this makes browsing history for reviews easy, nice

Well, turn it around: "Mow the lawn: done with todoneapp.com". Better to avoid teaching computers semantics if you can :)

You could add an option to export "task completed" events to a linked twitter account, so that it would say "ToDoneApp.com: Finished new website mockups". I can see that, even though todos are inherently private, some people will use that o

Well, everything needs a comparison point. Compare to New York or LA :)

I would not say the streets of San Francisco are mean. Out of many major cities I've been to, it looks like the nicest city for a homeless person to be. I don't know exactly what city does to help besides regular feedings on the Market str,

It is big, it covers alot of ground, therefore it has large software product illnesses - complicated to setup, hard to master, tricky to optimize to run fast. However, it is a nice product for some heavy-duty task managing once you have it

Just a thought - it may feel uncomfortable because people never accept changes, we all need time for brain patterns to rebuild. My first impression was - get the old page back. Second impression was - it now exposes some functionality I usu

As usual in WA, only works with that exact input. Give it any international city - silent fail.

Why was that upvoted? Somebody discovers ten-year old technologies? How about "Coredump in 15 seconds using C" then?

There are a number of free web-based players with a nice interface, I use prostopleer.com. As more such virtual goods (video, audio, books, etc) companies will fail to offer reliable long-term service, customers will force them to switch to

Have used single-line since 199x when we saved bytes by writing compressed css, and switched to expanded several years ago just because it is easier to read and modern debuggers/editors use that style. Don't see any reason to revive 'oldsko

The thing he tries to avoid is extra attention to his persona. With all the media buzz, I feel sorry for him, tabloid "journalists" will keep distracting him for a while now. Let the man live his life the way he wants to; leave him alone. P

No, but the sheer amount of junior developers who asked questions there over the last 10 years guaranteed that every possible way to incorrectly phrase a question is already answered. SO is - better open model, better interface, but lacks v

The use of numeric URL in Picasa has been blocked by google now. In either case, if you had your gmail address as an URL in Picasa you have been exposed to email harvesters all along, that's why there is an option to create any alias you li

This was a most troubled release from google, almost everything was done wrong, to alienate common non-techy users and privacy advocates. Just check out the Buzz help forum ( http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/label?lid=3a6323...

The author does not provide any attempt at measurable difference between now and then, and just goes by the "feeling" that it is becoming slower. While human feelings are valid for a personal dislike of some product, I don't see how this

Same in Russia. We still didn't get iphone 3gs too. Certification issues, guess nothing Google could change.

The only question is -- can they also create a user experience to match Apple's. That would basically mean software which should be extremely intuitive, simple, and to the point, where touch features don't feel as an afterthought on a solid

Could not resist a laugh really, this is so childish. That's why I would not put any trust in an online business without knowing it's background - can as well be two boys in a basement.

It seems that "connecting the dots" failed in this article on so many levels... 1. No, I don't consider .99 fart apps as revolutionary improvement of my living room 2. Netbooks and Amazon kindles/other ebook readers comprise one of the most
