   Buy cheap alarm clock from Amazon $5 - $10. Put it far from your bed so you have to walk over to it to turn it off. I love the look of the Ramos, especially the nixie tubes but I just don't see much of an improvement over placing the alarm

    It feels like the longer you develop web applications the less it matters what language you use. I highly recommend experimenting with as many languages as you can because each one has something unique to offer. You are often able to take l

    Programming is way more exciting today because it is so much easier for anyone to solve real world problems. The design of that blog was so borring/unexciting that I couldn't get myself to read it.

    Based on their signup help page ( https://pinboard.in/help/fee/ ) the price is "number of users * $0.001". Now there is no telling when they started with that pricing but assuming it was from the beginning they have made around $50k. Since

    I don't think GitHub is planning to nor should compete in that market. The Jekyll/blog hosting stuff has been a neat side effect and I am glad that GitHub hasn't gone out of their way to prevent that type of use but I'm sure they have no de

    I believe Google releases these things for free so that people can help them test it out and help them find the right pricing model. I'm not too sure there are a lot of people that will immediately base their business model on a service tha
