I agree with the article, it makes valid points. However, you're paying for a luxury item that's a powerful computer and something with an inherently short lifespan. Take it for what it is. You won't be upgrading this machine, but sellin

So true: I've paid for window managers, Finder replacements, and clipboard managers for OS X as everything is an upsell. I still like my Mac, though. This entire article could be said about any of the OSes and XYZ features.

Ivan Boesky, the famous investment banker/pawn for Michael Milken was rumored to have had many of the exact same suit so he didn't have to decide what to wear each day.

I think it makes sense to have two apps for FB. One's for content creation, and optimized for that. The other's for when you're bored and killing time scanning through the stream. When I'm sitting somewhere and I see something I want to

You need to be connected to the network. From their website: "Can I work on my site offline? Not Currently. Diet Coda's focus is editing files on your staging server; if you want to build a whole new website while you're there, that's als

Ember is probably more comparable to something like AngularJS (But I don't now 100% because I've never used Ember, just looked at their site for a few minutes). Backbone and Spine are much lighter-weight infrastructure frameworks.

I'd further add that if you're a dev type, and expected to remotely fix stuff, that you'd have a laptop anyway. Can't see doing anything more than fixing a typo on the iPad...in which case, I'm sure a SSH app is all that's needed.

Ahh, yes, hacker and as someone said above "pirate". I actually find all these terms a little insulting, making me feel like they're want to hire a twelve year old - or something.

You are not being creative/edgy/innovative/etc. when using terms ninja, unicorn, rockstar in your job posting. These three words are have morphed into cliches being used by hiring managers who think they're on the "pulse".

Having been at this stage awhile, I've come to the same conclusions. Also validated by almost every VC, Angel, etc. has said the same thing...over...and...over... (BTW, enjoyed the concise writing that was too the point, which gave me time

Ahh, I believe you're correct. I optimistically read those stats...

Actually, found the blog article: it's 46% in 2011 (43% in 2010), but whatever: http://www.kickstarter.com/blog/2011-the-stats

This is why one of the most important skills I look for in dev-types is their ability to learn and figure s#$t out. It's not only what you know today, but that you don't know what you don't know tomorrow, but you've gotta figure it out.

Everyone here is talking as if it's a all/nothing game. I'm using both DropBox (to continue to share with existing people) and SkyDrive for my larger, private stuff. I was able to move several gigs off of DropBox (with no effects with curr

By having all these images for the code sample makes it almost useless for me to tag and read later in one of my instapaper-esque tools.

Glad someone else remembers this well. Every time I read some self-righteous, mid-20-something blogger ranting like they are Michael Jordan, I remind myself of when the first bubble blew-up and there WEREN'T jobs or opportunities for a lot

Read the prior Little MogoDB Book, loved it. Will definitely make the time to read this one as well.

Great book, read it awhile ago. As you've probably figured out, there's been a lot of articles written about content publisher spam and content harvesting... Seems like Amazon needs to get their systems together to deal with this stuff qui

I don't agree with you, I went to the MIT 100K business plan awards the other night and there were very few types of companies of what you talk about. I think you're basing your assumptions on reading too many TechCrunch-ish articles that f
