Admittedly this is the most unscientific of sources, but this Yahoo Answers - ducks - post claims Sapphires have a hardness of 9 out of 10, where 10 is diamond. That leads me to believe it'd be harder to crack than glass.

I can't back it up with another source, but I have heard this / read this assertion somewhere. It's at least founder-culture folklore. Trying to remember which book I read it in... will edit if I can find / remember. Here's a reference to a

You have to think of it like BD. "What's FB going to get from this? What's Twitter going to get from this?" If you don't have a good answer, don't build on their platform. We at Vidpresso think we have a pretty good answer... Facebook and T

Yeah, Traci is a travel nurse. She's also done "registry" nursing, which is like local agency nursing on a shorter term basis. When she was a registry nurse, she would work at different hospitals, once or twice a week.

You should take your technology and apply it to the nursing industry. I've been saying it for years: Healthcare is an inefficient marketplace. Hospitals always have a hard time filling nursing demand, so they go to extraordinary lengths. Fo

Cool! Well, good luck. I'll just be a late adopter this technology cycle and hope it doesn't burn me. :)

I just peeked at the source, and it says it's MIT licensed, but without the BDFL[1], would we see progress in the spirit its intended? I worry about this with Angular too, but given that Google has obvious areas of synergy, I'm way less con

Complete aside, but as a student of marketing who reads HN, care to reach out to our company? I'm not a student of marketing, and I'm kind of bad at it but need to get good quickly. I'm curious about you as a person, and want to understand

I'm scared of meteor, no offense, partly because of its funding structure. It's a startup, but I think one thing I haven't been clear on is their licensing scheme, and how to deal with them if they die, etc. While I'd actually love to use m

I think as one uses Angular more, a person will move most of their code out of `ng-click` style directives into their own components which might include click handlers on them. That's the case, for me anyway.

That's just a flat tag page... the parent commenter's summary, in my opinion, is much better.

"Subsequently many of the points won't sit well with the techie crowd." I'm not sure what you mean? Why wouldn't battle-tested well-worn advice work with the techie crowd? And who is the techie crowd? Programmers? Tech lovers? I'm just conf

I think of APIs as open-source business development, and unless companies get a lot of value out of their apis, they shut them down for the same reason they shut down BD departments: They aren't providing any value.

The problem is not that they provide random routing, the problem is they said in their documentation that they provided intelligent routing, a design choice they backed off of when they switched stacks. Customers still have a problem, but H

The Angular example is a bit incorrect... when you do an ng-repeat, you're going to do like ng-repeat="person in people" and then each template item will be like {{person.name}} as opposed to just {{name}}. Just a little clarity in the code

Yeah... we're updating our site literally as we speak. Hopefully will have it launched in about 30 min.

This is great! We (Vidpresso) think this sort of thing is the future of TV, and that's why we're building it. Currently, our first product is a way for TV stations to take Facebook and Twitter, and show it using their own graphical look on-

Jailbreaking != phone unlocking. Phone unlocking means unlocking the SIM to be able to use different carriers. The DMCA, strangely, doesn't let people unlock their SIM slot to use it with different carriers. (FWIW, this seems like a strange

Everyone who doesn't like HTML template languages is going to eventually mention Zencoding. Note: They changed the name to Emmet, and it's still actively maintained and works with Sublime, et. al. http://emmet.io/ If you find Zencoding an
