I assume you have some knowledge of C# and .NET derivates, if that, you can first give a try to XNA [1], as it is more robust and resourceful than web frameworks are at the moment. And when you feel you're ready you can switch to browsers.

Well, thinking of scalability at this young point is not recommended, as you might forget other true important things, like actually getting to the point where you need to worry about scalability :). Just go with what you like to work with,

Whoever wrote that article has only used an iPhone and the web just for some time now. From my point of view Siri is just a toy, yes, is cool, funny, smart but again, is just a toy, I couldn't really use it in real situation, probably Siri

I like you they underlined the Android part, why take on iPhone, that's dominated by iTunes when there's such a great market for Android.

I assume one reason would be that some browsers have difficulties handling more than 1024, also this is not limited to browsers, also HTTP servers suffer from this (for example IIS <= 6 can only handle 128). On the other hand increasing

Well, see, here's the difference, it counts how you see the glass, full or empty. From my point of view, and I assume theirs, that's simply a joke that most of you got serious. I was just asking for a female programmer to tell that she's ha

Exactly my thoughts, I really like that they actually exposed their cultural thoughts on this one, I hope to see this kind of trend in job postins more and it really makes me want to join that respective company. On the other hand I don't u

I am thinking more of a "turning it into reality" type of concept. Learning kids that they can turn an idea into something (tangible?) might be a valuable lesson.

From what I understood from the other comments (site is not working), everything is custom made, unique and handled by one single person, that explains the price, and honestly, it seems okay. If you outsource to China, you take all those Pr

That's the exact same reason I haven't yet bueyd an macbook, they're resolutions are utterly low. I hope Apple will start to innovate more rather than bumping to the newest CPUs/GPUs each year.

"dangerously similar to Facebook’s" with the only difference being "Unlike Facebook, the inbox doesn’t have a fixed width and users can choose one of four display density types". I cannot imagine what innovations are to be made in this fiel

I don't see why people tag this is a bad thing? He exercises his freedom of speech in a constructive matter, both Amazon and Google should get this as a pro thing.

As stated somewhere else in this thread, I assume he is trying to scale his app due to higher loads and probably forgot to change some config items.

Basically if one of your controller has more than 10 lines of processing and you don't need to present the data to the user immediately, you can put that into a job, for example when a user register, you can add the new record to the databa

A quick tip would be to run everything process intensive in the backend, don't waste frontend resources with API calls, data processing etc, got something that takes more than 200ms to run, place it in a job que and do the processing later.

New Relic's RPM has became an important asset in all of my applications, plus we heavily use it for a Rails app that receives ~5 million hits per day. The best way to track performance issues, and that's in production. Tip for OP: As you mi

I see a trend in the world of these so called social media experts, they really love to amplify the gravity of the situation by N+1. Of course, Facebook can/is worse than a ghost town, twitter the same, but in order to fix this, how about g
