I started with rails 3 and I haven't had any major hurdles to overcome. I've been very impressed with Rails. I'm coming from a Python/PHP framework background, and so far rails is my favorite (only done a few apps so far, mind you).

I use Evernote for everything from notes and todo lists on my various projects to grocery lists, medical info tracking, plugins I want to try with vim, and daily task lists. I've tried it multiple times in the past and gradually stopped us

I'm on their $4.99/month plan. I hardly ever send any faxes so I never go over my quota, but it's nice to have my own number to be able to receive them. On the rare occasions I need to send a fax, their editing/signing tools are a true pl

I'm not sure whether your comment is against Moon colonization specifically or more generally against the use of funds for space exploration. In the case of the former I don't know enough about the potential of such a mission to pass judgm

To prevent what? Data entry? I've also noticed that quite a few shady companies I've seen register their companies and bank accounts in Cyprus and live/operate elsewhere. I'm assuming it provides some kind of legal benefit but I don't kn

As a heavy Google services user, I prefer Android overall, but something about the iPhone's keyboard keeps luring me back. Until I spend a couple days with the iOS Google Voice app. Then I put my SIM card back in my Nexus One.

Try Google Latitude. The history feature is probably a rough approximation of what the cell phone company (and by extension, law enforcement) would see.

I've used SliceHost, Linode, and AWS, as well as some "no-name" providers. Linode is my top pick. I've thought about moving my stuff to AWS (due to the hourly vs monthly billing) multiple times but always ended up staying with Linode.

I just reused someone elses' thread title for HN. I don't believe (as the original author might) that Google hates SIP. My concern is that they purchased a company with a functional and well-liked product and are shutting it down before t

Your BBM PIN is separate from your phone number. My friends with Blackberrys have people they talk to on BBM that they don't even have phone numbers for.

I can't really imagine why they wouldn't have released one. The only plausible reason I can come up with is that their manufacturing costs couldn't come close what Apple was able to do to put out their $499 16GB WiFi model.

Another big winner for me (on any Android 2.2+ device): tethering via portable WiFi hotspot. Although it's much more satisfying when I run my Nexus One on my AT&T unlimited data plan than when I get molested by Verizon for my data usag

Where Microsoft failed with tablets was trying to shoehorn desktop Windows onto a device with a touch interface. I'm planning to ditch my iPhone soon but I still consider it to be the biggest disruptive event in mobile history since middle

It's barely priced higher than the equivalent iPad model. $729 for the 3G/32GB iPad vs. $799 for the 3G/32GB Xoom. IMHO, Honeycomb is far beyond the current iOS iteration for iPad. Granted I'm a Google services oriented person and Apple w

This story is a case study in how not to sell software. This is exactly what I would expect to see at HN.

I use VMWare Fusion all the time. I spent 30 minutes trying to buy it and 30 seconds getting a pirated serial. I think the software is well worth the price and I'd happily give them the money if they could provide a reasonable way for me

"Fully 70% of your tax dollars go to the Pentagon, and the Pentagon is the real government of the United States." This does not appear to be a well researched post.

I liked the point about Al-Jazeera. I've been reading/watching for a few years now and I always thought their reporting was less slanted than the US news networks. It annoys me to no end to hear people call them a terrorist mouthpiece, es

The gout example in the article strikes me as very odd, since the only site that should've received the referrer with the search terms was wikipedia. Therefore we've left to conclude that either Google is targeting ads in their AdSense net
