As a founder of https://www.opendesk.cc I think all startups should consider local manufacturing -- when they're fitting out their work space. </tenuous plug>

Perhaps you could try the same with your obituary. Less work bound but perhaps a touch morbid.

I like .attribute syntax as much as the next developer but the mutate-on-get behaviour strikes me as... undesirable.

A couple of times, the article mentions using: > services and object references to propagate object changes between scopes. There are so many ways to wire things up in Angular -- references, watches, broadcast/emit -- that I'd

Deis is, in a sense, a deployment framework that allows you to deploy your stack (basically a python app) in such a way that you can scale and configure it easily. I deploy python apps (running behind gunicorn) on heroku and basically pay f

When I was 12 I made a stop motion animated dizzy egg style adventure game in HyperCard. When I was 25 I remembered and thought, hmm maybe I should try and learn how to code. I'm now a professional developer. As an aside, I sold it to

The books referenced in this thread are no doubt great but I wouldn't read a book to get better at software design. I would design software.

Thanks for the info. And for the record, I very much welcome the beauty, lightness and agility :) Just as a ref, here's a CMS intro that focuses on the content model and workflow: https://github.com/SpontaneousCMS/

I've browsed the site, the documentation, repo and tutorial. I still don't know what the content model or publishing flow is. I realise that the concept of a generic CMS implies DB backed with bespoke content types. However, it wo

I'd be interested to know what kind of stage / traction / volume Grand St is at and what kind / scale of deal this is.

I switched to angular explicitly for the dependency injection. Registering a singleton so it can be passed in to other functions and mocked out easily in tests is something I find extremely useful. Whether the framework should provide three

Their other acquisition today - Loom - is on the annihilate Flickr path. I must say I do like your auto monetization angle though. If carousel is anything to go by, their 'we build UX ontop of your content' execution is so far a b

I also believe in the technology and the general architecture you're espousing. I found the content on http://www.staticapps.org well written and constructive and the links to http://www.divshot.com are unobtrus

I believe the point is to drive traffic to http://www.divshot.com , re-labelling their snake oil as a uniquely cold-blooded essential along the way. I quote from their features page: > Fully featured? Yes. Get pushState with c

The post reads melodramatic to me too. So you were a VC? So what. However, as a recent parent living in a small flat who enjoys collaborating, I can note that there are many reasons not to work at home, no matter how fly my wifi.

Strikes me that a simpler product might be more attractive: i) a doorbell you can switch off when you don't want to be disturbed ii) a lock you can control with your phone.

Works great for me. There's some minimal configuration explained in the pgbouncer docs. What the pgbouncer buildpack does is just route your DATABASE_URL through the local pgbouncer. In my python app, I switched from an sqlalchemy conn
