Perforce has an Office plugin (P4OFC) to manage documents, might be a little more appropriate for enterprise work.

This is a great example of users of your application doing unintended things. In this case, productive, positive things. I also think this speaks volumes about the possibilities that open, or at least lenient, platforms offer. Rather than b

I think that's applicable to any kind of work, really. I can't find any examples (my Google-fu is failing me), but I think a generally accepted practice that leads to productivity is having a space that you only work in. When you're in that

One suggestion: handle excess indentation. If I copy code from something and it's been indented 3-4 levels, it's pushed almost all the way (if not all the way) off the picture. Love the support for Solarized, by far my favorite color scheme

I'm guessing fun/education. This is both a fun project if your hobby involves Pi's or cluster computing, and it could be used to illustrate clusters to students.

I think this applies to many of the "self improvement" articles I've read. I think these articles are definitely worthwhile, I just believe they need to be read as they are: about someone else's life. If your goals and life situation align

America is not homogeneous. "Random middle America" I can't speak to, but certainly neither coast fits this article (from my experience). There doesn't seem to be mention of this in the article.

When pitching a new product, I detailed the observations, product hypotheses, experimental design, results and conclusion in that order. The discussion focused mainly on the experimental design and the biases in the results and the implica

I'd say extrapolating Alaska to the rest of America is also a big problem in the point the author and her contact are trying to make.

I'm not talking to the general public. I'm talking to people who want more than something that "just works" at the cost of user control.

This is what happens when you market a phone as something that "just works". It's great that iOS is able to be used by kindergarten-level children, but at the same time, it's not. My next phone is going to be Android-based, because I believ

There's no need to attack him because you assume that he's not empathetic to others or is incapable of reading body language. I really hope this "introvert fad" slows down soon. There's no need to be so radical, there's a spectrum of person

A good way to introduce this starter is to put up a map of the world and get learners to point out Japan. As a teacher you can then move into how Japanese Pupils learn to multiply. Shouldn't the focus be on teaching kids to multiply, rath

For what it's worth I think it serves my purposes very well. I would suggest being mindful of trying to add features that could ultimately clutter it. I love the categories you put submissions into; one way to both provide a helpful feature

I won't go as far to say a collapse would be good, but I think being mindful of our rate of expansion would be nice. There are limits to everything, why do we need to push all of them including the population limit?

In my humble opinion, I put them on par with pagination of articles (not good). Of course you click through if you're intrigued enough . I'm not sure carousels are meant to create intrigue about a product. I'm not really sure what their pu
