At work we use to use feature flags a fair bit, but switched to using branches instead for development. For our testing environment, we can access individual branches as subdomains to a testing environment. This lets the in-progress code be

So what if they're amateurs, to many surely pitching is a new experience and they would try and do what they think is best. It's a learning experience.

I also hate videos; they are too slow to get to the point. With text, at least I can speed read and ignore stuff that is not important to me.

Use Screen Capture (by Google): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cpngackimfmofbokmj... You can take the entire page, partial pages, redactions etc its fantastic. No remote server needed either.

I'm sure this would go down awesomely with the board. Board: So why don't we have that trademark anymore? Bethesda: Oh we gambled and lost it in a game of Quake 3 deathmatch ... Seriously? :)

I'm a .Net developer and I have tried to use Mono in the past for a few sites, but there are always a few minor problems that are a total turn off. I just stick with Windows hosting instead.

Perhaps make a blog post about this (more detailed, with proof of this scum attempting to extort you) and let the tea lovers know to not follow their recommendations. I'd like to think if anyone ever tried to do that to me, I'd be replying

I'm hoping they show a nicer looking demo (instead of 'programmer art') to get a better idea of how much better it would be.

I'm not a lawyer, but I don't think you can make money off someone's "likeness" (eg, a photo!) without their content? Especially a portrait shot.

It really depends on what sort of plugin you're making. How does the functionality of your plugin differ between browsers? What I was getting at with Firebreath was that you could just write it once, and target all browsers at once without

You should check out Firebreath at http://www.firebreath.org/display/documentation/FireBreath+H... I've used it for writing a cross browser plugin that's working under IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari (Mac OSX).

You may want to look into using HMAC Urls (with a timed expiration date), see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAC for a quick explanation. This lets you send a link like www.mysite.com/resetpassword?userid=123×tamp=...&hmac=...

As a site user, I'd want to just have a link I can click to pick a new password. I'm not going to use/keep the generated password you send me, so just linking me to a page that lets me pick a new password to begin with works best for me.

You can use 'Firebug Lite' with Chrome ( http://getfirebug.com/ ), as well as IE/other browsers. I use Chrome's built in dev tools but also Firebug Lite, its handy to see Ajax queries (and console debug logs) on the actual page instead of a

Another "scam" I associate with GoDaddy is that when you pick to pay for the Whois Privacy protection, you also get a 'Business Registration' fee added (like $5/year or something trivial). All this fee does is list your domain name or somet

Pretty sure Google by default keep around 3 separate copies. One copy on a particular server, another copy on a server in the same 'rack', and another copy either in another site or on a different rack. Then there's whatever backups they do

Web browsers should support built-in checksum verification of downloads (when owners upload md5sum/signatures/etc with the files), instead of having to do it manually.

Agreed; I got half way through setting up Google's 2 factor but then was told I had to use it for every login, instead of say when I was logging in from a different IP or doing some big change.
