Investors won't want to invest in someone that isn't fully committed to their vision. Just imagine if someone asked you to invest your hard-earned money in them, but they didn't even believe in their idea enough to actually l

I use a Macbook Air, but spend most of my time in Ubuntu. I've just come to like doing all my development work in it. I use OS X in places where I run into services that don't support Ubuntu.

It does feel relatively fast from basic usage, but as long as Apple doesn't let me change my default browser I'll have to pass. Clicking links anywhere else just opens Safari, which is a bummer. As for the fact that they send my

I actually find myself buying more and more ebooks lately. I find it really convenient for various reasons, including Whispersync (which is quite useful). Also I travel a lot and am in the process of finishing multiple books, so it's o

Before I started building my first web app in Rails, I didn't even know how to write Rails! I had only previously been a front-end developer, but I can say I learned a TON. Am I a Ruby on Rails guru? Nope, but I know how to traverse th

Not sure if sarcasm, or you're saying you use the same password on every site.

I always go with a throwaway that I can change later. I actually just recently changed the name for an app I'm building and, turns out, the new one is 100X better!

I absolutely disagree. I never played sports as a kid, and I turned out fine. Instead, I spent time on my computer and ran around the neighborhood with the kids that lived around me. This is actually another reason why I believe I have a lo

Great post. As someone that is getting closer to the finish line of developing my first Rails app, I can definitely relate to this post. I'm definitely going to take the advice in the article and run with it.

1. I am a Twitter junkie, and have been since '08. It's rare that you'll find a time when I don't have Twitter open in a tab; I'm checking 24/7. 2. I just think the DM feature could be improved. It's too h

I'll just provide my perspective. I'm a web developer, and have only be doing it for about a year, so maybe I can't even call myself a "web developer" with a straight face. Anyway, JavaScript was the first language

As someone who got into web development only about a year ago, JavaScript has been wonderful. When I began I was overwhelmed by the amount of frameworks I could learn, but now I want to learn them all! I think some people underestimate th

I don't drive either, so walking/public transit directions are INTEGRAL to my survival. I haven't played with a Windows Phone in almost two years, though.

Good to hear. I haven't actually used it much yet but it's made me consider getting a Chromebook.

I'm really glad that DDG has been able to capitalize on the NSA fallout. I remember checking the site out awhile ago but defaulted to expecting failure (hey, I'm not a VC). The only real reason I haven't switched is that I&#x
