Synchronicity :-) Just this week I scraped and analyzed only the homepages from the Alexa top 1 million [1] and majestic million [2]. I used rqworker[3] and and a fleet of mini-servers from scaleway[4] to do the scraping. Some results: - 1.

I like how they played it off by playing up their mobile site, and then reminding us that their API is available to anyone who would make an app.

Has anyone done a comparative analysis of appcelerator vs react native? I might be up for it if anyone would like to join.

How does this compare to Mulesoft's CloudHub or ws02 ESB?

Gonna chime in here on Sweden -- it is not as utopian as it might project itself to be. Like many other in countries across Europe there is growing anti-immigration sentiment, and that is certainly true in the South. Malmö has quite a few i

I'm in a similar spot. Below are some of my own experiences: Depending on the scope of your project that budget could certainly be reasonable. Here are some of my strategies: - I dont use E-lance to source talent. Rather, I use their e

I worked at a company with a lot of creative types. As part of a business deal we were moved from outlook to lotus, and that was when all hell broke loose. It happened on such a big scale and with such critical teams that management could n

Can PipelineDB be used to run projections for an EventStore? I'm experimenting with the EventStore pattern for a side project, and I have struggled to implement projections. Could PipelineDB be a way to deliver that?

Cool product and nice execution, but I'm a little stuck on the name. I keep reading it as ascii-enema.

You should really watch this talk by Ben Horowitz [1]. The takeaway here is that they look to explore "good ideas that look like bad ideas," and he goes on to talk about Air BnB and some other companies. I bet this is one of those

I feel you. Only last year did I really embrace testing. But I did it from what I call "outside-in". That is, I started with acceptance tests and then worked my way down to unit tests. Search for "Accept Testing Driven Develo

Agreed -- I would love to find a plugin to curb Parallax and other abuses of these CSS/JS UI tricks. Don't even get me started on the terrible performance of mobile... The worse offenders are Themeforest templates. I sometimes buy

Funny enough, I'm also working in this space at the moment. Right now we are training models to identify cuisines and diets in multiple languages. Also, anyone interested in this space might also check out Yummly (www.yummly.com).

Love Ansible for its simplicity. For some reason it "just clicked" whereas I really struggled with Puppet / Chef / or old-school shell scripts. (That says more about me than Puppet and Chef) For me, YAML files and fantas

I'm amazed at how fast sites load when javascript is disabled. It reminds me of the early days of broadband. Like the first time I sat at a college campus computer that had a 100mb connection -- my face melted off. I actually have java

Exactly, I started on Alloy and quickly found that there was too much magic in going from templates to js code. Once I took a step back to Titanium it all felt a lot more sane. Yes it is a little more verbose, but at least I can follow the

Is it actually "native" if it is a JS interpreter passing calls into the runtime? Yes, it is native widgets and UI, but the "brains" of the operation are seemingly outside. PS - I have no idea what I'm talking about

I say the documentation is pretty ok once you get familiar with how the API is laid out. And for everything else they have the developer QA section, which is like a self-hosted stack-overflow. I've been building a couple of simple apps

Damn, that was a good pitch video. Nice work, Mr. Jarvis. Definitely one of the best I've seen. Clear, concise, relatable, human, and funny. I wonder if the classes are like the pitch video?

I've been looking at this question for a while. I think you really have to go niche, by topic or geographic location. I would love to engage some conversation around how to grow these types of communities.

On your suggestion I tried it on my phone (4.1.2). The rendering improved, but speed is still an issue. Scrolling with big images is jerky. However, I have not yet optimized images or CSS. I'll probably spend next week looking into opt
