hear hear. I've taken the last couple of months to refactor all of my side projects to 12-factor apps for deployment on a nice Dokku instance. Absolutely effortless. Next steps now is getting these projects deployed through a CI/C

A friend of mine closed his company in 2013 and had a full avaya system with 40 phones and latest software that he could not even give away. Eventually some kids from a local hackerspace came and hauled away the whole lot. They were after t

Exactly this. It is like all those data marketplaces from 2010. Infochimps most famously and azure shuttering their data marketplace recently. This has the same feel.

Smugmug comes to mind (smugmug.com), but I'm not sure about the licensing. I know that they are/were an alternative favorite for the pro-sumer photographer. There is also http://www.photoshelter.com/

I actually know a guy that was amicably divorced for 10+ years but remained married on paper just so he could keep his healthcare benefits. They have children so there was mutual interest in making sure all family members were cared for.

Strawman-schrawman.... Your threshold for hate speech much be pretty low if you think "fat and unattractive" fits the definition.

by sheraz 10y ago
Calling someone fat and unattractive is NOT hate speech. Besides, whatever happened to just ignoring it and getting on with one's life? It is this constant cry-bully public outcry and constant whinging that has propelled people like Mi

Here is another narrative: Attack the business models of companies who produce content we find offensive, politically incorrect, or don't align with our world view -- yet are still protected under the first amendment. The problem is th

You are not looking hard enough! But maybe you should find an open source project you like and see how you can start contributing in a meaningful way (meaningful to you). Baring that, THINK SMALL. Think about one tiny thing to make, and the

Include a public URL in your build process from day one. I use dokku for this and simply git push dokku master right after I got push origin master. At any given time those who have the URL can see what I'm doing and ping back with fee

Yeah no. This whole gender thing is a parody of itself. Government identification has gender/sex along with other bits of information as a means of verification--just as the tags we give our pets. Sparky was born dec 5, 2012 and is a m

yeah so what. that is the privilege of having power, you can exchange it for other forms of power. And again, credibility is at stake. If I curate a list of awesome cloud providers, and IBM pays me to exclude AWS, then I look like an idiot.

sure. And good for them. The curator risks his own reputation by promoting sponsors with poor content, products, or services that are not relevant to the audience. I don't mind advertising/marketing so long as it is relevant and t

My only experience is in the NYC area where the trains are notoriously over-crowded, in need of repair/replacing, and very hard to enjoy during busy hours. And trying to work on those trains is futile. So needless to say, I'm not

Good story. I completely agree that all of this auto-curation will bury the eclectic collections and poison discovery. That is one big reason I started my side project, curabase.com[1], to simply enable anyone to curate their own list of bo

Do you mean commuting in a car or by public transportation? Either way, the one resource I cannot get more of in life is time. The more I get on in life the more I protect this resource. And I vow to never give my time to long commutes. Tha

I always push Processwire for questions like this. It is very versatile and makes for a capable CMS / blog / whatever. I'm planning on using processwire to build a webstore with either Foxycart or Snipcart. Just as a starter

LastPass, and I pay for it. Does the job, but the chrome plugin seems sluggish sometimes. Happy customer.

This. For the last month I've been working on a big enterprise Flash flex application that talks to a PHP backend. It seems that flex mxml is a good idea, but once apple decided to kill flash, the developer community jumped ship. Thank
