This is a terrible article in my opinion. He says the app eco system on facebook is not thriving. Is there any data behind this statement? Has facebook seen a drop off in facebook games or facebook game activity? He talks about news feeds a

I do this - I set 5 different alarms, each spaced 2-3 mins apart. If I'm going to bed and need to get up after only 3-4 hours sleep, I will do the same, but also set one 10 mins later, 20 mins later

The techcrunch piece is nothing more than some filler around the Google blog post. I don't think it's offering any extra insight.

Interesting. Looks like you do some kind of development that you expect to get paid for? But you are happy to use software that other software developers salaries are sustained by people buying the software. You are a terrible double standa

I'm in the UK and have travelled to the US a number of times for work. Being British and white, I guess I don't attract much attention. I will be travelling again in January so will be interesting to see what it's like. Pesonally I love the

They do have problems with customer numbers in stores and a fire limits. At my closest apple store on a saturday there is often a queue to get into the store with security controlling the numbers. It is one of the small store designs though

Advising people to not meet their financial obligations? You're an idiot, do you not have any kind of moral backbone?

I don't know if you have this in the US, but in the UK we have a concept of a guarantor for the rent for people who can't verify their income / landlord doesn't trust. They are then legally responsible to pay the rent if you don't. However

A sys admin can set up a virtual network on EC2. He can blog about it, he can then ask to take his laptop to the interview (check beforehand if WiFi / ethernet is available, otherwise perhaps a 3g dongle) and they can demonstrate everything

I think you will find the majority of the western world have a strong reluctance to travel abroad for work. - Working abroad means leaving behind friends, family etc. To many people, this is a big deal - A large majority of the working popu

Have you considered hiring remote workers? Surely your money will go further hiring a remote developer in the Mid West with the cheaper cost of living than NYC? I'm sure you could even fly them in a few times if you needed to and still save

Are you overthinking it - if I'm looking at restaurants in San Francisco, chances of me wanting to look at them in London or Philippines at the same time? I'm also a fast typer, so don't see it as a major burden myself... I'll have another

Awesome site! Well done

Hi Paul, Is that just the way the cookie crumbles? Personally I haven't submitted anything, but I do click the 'ask' section and read through / upvote. Maybe the title of your original submission didn't catch people's attention - it didn't

Personally, if I am presenting to clients, I always check everything I'm going to show beforehand - I run through what I'll be demo'ing and check that it works as expected. I'm not sure why Matt didn't do that, but there you go.

This looks good. I don't have anything to use it for at the moment, but being UK based, I've often wondered about cloud solutions and found them US centric, so looking forward to seeing how this evolves. Especially looking forward to seeing

Congrats on launching this, it's great. I'm in the UK so obviously my first suggestion is UK webshop integration =) The site is simple, clean and easy to use. I noticed that a lot of the small touches of UI which add to the experience were
