I don't read reddit. So when I see a redditor running I "meh" pretty hard. My indifference could not be more palpable. The fact that he's a reddit user doesn't make him any better or worse a candidate, or more or less likely to win. It j

Today, my fiancee called me and asked: "This SOPA thing. I think it's bad. Is it bad?" I hadn't mentioned it before, really. So it is definitely hitting the mainstream. This has rekindled my hope for humanity. I used to think most peop

Doesn't matter. What matters is that they mentioned a keyword (jobs) and that means they're a job-creator and everyone who opposes the bill hates jobs.

you can break out tabs into a separate action bar or use scrollable tabs. You're using elements from another platform your users don't use. You're just going to confuse or annoy them.

it doesn't always drop down. Sometimes it "drops" up, like if the element is at the bottom of the phone. You can "spin" through options. Makes sense.

Yes. But they do a lot of these editorials, which seem to get linked frequently. I guess that's what I end up seeing. I see more links to the NYTimes talking about itself then I see links to news on the NYTimes.

The New York Times has always struck me as rather pretentious and self-important. They seem to report about themselves as much as the news.

Finally! I was wondering how to do this! On a real note, napping changed my life. And when I had my own business, it really helped productivity to have a nap in the middle of the day. Now I work for the machine, and naps are unfortunatel

and for node. And it's almost as fast as a C implementation. JS isn't terrible, you know. People just never learn it because it's confusing. It's more similar to lisp than to C, except for the syntax. And built for speed doesn't mean "t

Well, it can vary. I can only speak to my own experience. I live just outside the city in Jersey. It's a bus to Port Authority Bus Terminal (located on 42nd and 8th), then a subway ride to work. Total time: 30min. In rush hour: 45min.

Most of the developers I know are twenty-somethings. Some of the older devs have kids, but they usually don't live in Manhattan proper. Long Island City, Astoria, Brooklyn, New Jersey, etc, are much preferred. I know only one dev who liv

These numbers seem low. But as for cost of living, don't live in New York itself. The longer your commute, the more you save. Time is the trade-off, of course. If you get some partial work-from-home, you're golden. I have a fairly nice

You assume that education for most must be done by the state. Yes, what I stated is a solution, and it does work around the state education problem. I admit the possibility that the state education system can be fixed, but I also admit the
