Surpised tmux wasn't mentioned in the list of core tools; Author has written about it before it seems. tmux is the key to building an IDE in *nix for me.

You are correct. I guess I was just concerned that declaring that working on a project for any amount of time, no matter how small, precludes work on anything else for the rest of the day sounds a bit too inflexible, bordering on incompeten

Cool! Lots of neat discussion there. I must say however, that "If I work an hour for you I can't work for anyone the rest of the day" argument is one I wouldn't want to pitch to a prospect. Seriously? If you work for 1 hour on project X

I think the gist of the post is intriguing but I felt that there were too many of these seemingly thin-air sourced assertions for me to take it without a grain of salt. I think a lot of the stuff could be true and it makes sense to me, but

Not sure what you mean by bubbling. Are you referring to google's Evil Magic which does such a frustratingly good job of predict my intent? Yes, it is a double edged sword indeed.

I don't understand what is confusing people. As sp332 pointed out, it says plenty about the goal on the front page. Yes, Mozilla does seem to have a sprawling, amorphous, and somewhat bewildering product catalog, but that doesn't mean the

I know the email thing is a put off but if it's any consolation, the email isn't (immediately) confirmed, nor is the password. Just use a dummy email (try yopmail), you can probably change it later. I agree on principal but this tool is co

The ninja trope is a put off for me but it's common so I just ignored it, but then Japan's rising sun motif appears full-page, just to make clear we're talking about Asians... Can't we come up with some other cultural stereotype to exploit

This article seems to just be a lazy rehashing of the Mother Jones story www.motherjones.com/media/2012/04/silicon-valley-brogrammer-culture-sexist-sxsw They mention the exact same examples ('bro down and crush' & bikini shots) even. I

I opened chrome to check this out, but it wants me to "sign in" to install the extension. For me this is a bridge too far: I don't care to tell google about every single extension/application (extensplication?) I'm using. Like many people,

Recording your employees' use of company computers, given proper disclosure, is an employers prerogative. It's also legal (in some locales) for parents to do this to their children. I find it immoral, personally (the latter), but this is

To view the generated site you can run the command python -m SimpleHTTPServer inside the public directory. I'm confused: you're starting a python server (adding a python dependency to your instructions) to serve static files?
