The OP asked for feedback, and I figured it was better he heard it from me than from 37signals' lawyers. It doesn't look like 37 signals has trademarked that particular color scheme or design, and I don't see any evidence that they own or

No, he's saying you can imitate a design that is not protected by trademark; quite unlike the Coke logo. They do declare copyright on the design, but that doesn't protect against designs that are merely similar.

I've used and had good experience with both platforms. The only performance issues I've ever had were with SimpleDB when it was in beta. For support the nod would have to go to Rackspace, in my opinion. The two times I've needed help I wa

Just as another data point, I too have a small child (toddler in this case) who gets just about every minute of my time outside of work. The three hours every night after she goes to bed is spent either with my wife or coding. With that sa

Actually, he says that he may work on refactoring an existing forge project to add the features he deems necessary to free it's users from the "data jail." No idea if that will really happen, but if so it's a tad better than the normal comp

Murderers, however, aren't the people who demand, pay for, or influence the design and manufacture of new weapons. The people who do are involved in a professional capacity, so I'm not sure how laziness applies either.

The only reason Colt / Armalite isn't in the same position is probably because our military is way more active than Russia's. It's not just our military - dozens of countries import the M-16 and it's variants from Colt or manufacturers wh

UMCP is no more the definitive "University of Maryland" than UMUC. While they may be the "flagship" university in the system, according to their site, they are still UMCP, not simply UM.

Throw some dubs or spinnas on those bad boys, and they'd still look like dorks. Funny, personally I think that cars with spinners and huge rims looks quite a bit more dorky then Segways. The big difference between the two is that the Segw
