You are right. The author has absolutely no clue what he is writing about. Just like what you pointed out. He also claims raytracing does not solve photorealism, but does not back this claim. No single argument why! [Edit: But he's right he

FYI, there also seems to be a drupal plugin: http://drupal.org/sandbox/sanduhrs/1132580 - but it seems to be experimental at the moment. Also, I did not try it out myself - yet.

Very cool, especially for a 4-hour-project! And it works really well. I just don't know what I should use it for...

This is a very interesting exercise, I have to try it some time this week! Here's another one: Go to a quiet place, outside. Maybe to a forest. You should be alone. Now stop and listen. Try to identify all of the sounds you hear. Try to hea

Thanks for trying it! Yes, it is pretty much unusable with a mouse, but it was kind of fun on an iPad or with a Wacom Tablet. I remember that I had some problems with the touch events on the iPad - I eventually solved them ( http://davidtan

I have several ideas I never started working on. I guess they don't count. Then I had some others that I never finished/validated. http://gclimbing.com is not really a failed idea, more like a failed project. Some years ago, I administere

The problem could be that they require a signature. And a scanned+emailed signature is not a valid signature under Austrian law (IIRC, IANAL, but I am from Austria). But from the PDF file in the second link from the parent comment they say

Just my opinion, but you should basically do what you like. I like developing software, so working for ~40 hours a week is OK for me. But I also try not to spend too many hours (per year) working for clients so I have time for my own stuff

This is complete bullshit. The original article is absolutely right: We work in an industry were more hours do not necessarily mean more results - and less hours do not always mean less results. Of course you can try to win by putting in mo

Looks nice! But: For my site - http://davidtanzer.net - it does not produce the correct result for the new iPad. On the real device it looks exactly like on the iPad (no side bar, everything is just higher res).

I would not do it. The last time I saw/used Sharepoint (I had a 2-day sharepoint user training ~9 months ago) I was really unimpressed. Don't get me wrong, managing documents with Sharepoint works. Somewhat. But all the web stuff seemed rea

This is a quite interesting blog post, despide the somewhat misleading title of the HN submission. I too think that most tools limit your ability as a team by imposing their own workflow or process on you. Also, ThetaBoard looks nice and so

Oh. This is about an email _program_. I thought they would try to attack smtp+pop+imap and try to solve some of the problems with how email works. That would be a really hard and interesting (albeit probably fruitless) challenge! Edit: Anyw

These skills don't guarantee success. They drastically increase your chances to be successful. Nothing more. There are no guarantees, and there is more than one way to achive it.

"ridiculously slow"? Well, it is slower than a small text editor, but after using Visual Studio for about a year, Eclipse seems blazingly fast to me.

Meeting in person is important, IMHO, but being present: not so much. If a face to face meeting is possible once or twice during the project I would probably go for the superstar. Anyway, this is just a gut feeling, I am not in your situati

"Windows Phone Has A Totally Unique UI" - I don't think this is a valid point. Unique does not automatically win anything. Better might be a winner, but the article does not say that. "Originality Means Fewer Forays Into The Patent Wars" -

"The non-designer's design book" is really great, I learned a lot from it. It helps to know these things, even though I am a software developer and normally do little to no design work for my clients. Currently I read "Visual Language for D

I think the OP means that when you are burned out you can not enjoy you spare time and you can not rest anymore.
