Flat sharing would be quite easy to arrange for that amount of time. I had a mate who lived and worked in London while staying at a hostel for an entire year.

Why not just tell them if there is something specific, but failing that just repeat what you just said: you want to focus on keeping the catalogue small, which means that some applications that are otherwise appropriate will be omitted. Inv

I took 18 months off and lived and worked overseas. I keep recommending it to anyone who'll listen. Gadgets like iPads and iPhones are just diversions, the freedom you'll get if you take time off (not just a two week trip!) is worth so much

Good point. Wikipedia suggests that there are battery powered locomotives - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_locomotive#Electric_lo... Charging such a massive ammount of batteries quickly could potentially be problematic.

This non-referenced answer http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081220144240AA... says locomotives weigh roughly 130 tons, and each carriage weighs 65 tons. That's a lot more than a one ton car.

It should be irrelevant that "twitter" and "tweet" were already words. I couldn't name my company "Apple Music", I'd be chased down and butchered by both Yoko Ono and Steve Jobs.

"Based on what I see on TV I have to believe that the Rolodex counts for far more than the writing skill because there's a ton of crap getting produced." Like, for example, "Reality Binge" or "Celebrity Drive-By"? Which happen to be the aut

"I enjoy going to a theater as well... but eventually, the only theaters that will exist will be high-end, classy joints like Gold Class Cinemas ( http://www.goldclasscinemas.com/ )." Think of teens and parents. They're not going to pay for

Cinemas sell an experience, not the content itself. I don't think that even the most expensive home cinema setup could replace them.

How does the stock thing work? Is it given to all engineers? It seems to be just Silicon Valley companies who give away stock/options as a matter of course, so I'm a little mystified.

I've only used it on smaller projects. Facebook use it on their frontpage for progressive loading (check the source for `<script>big_pipe.onPageletArrive(..);</script>`). Longer running connections are a little more problema

Why don't you use long polling rather than sending a request a second? You could even incorporate the timer into a single request. do { sleep(1); $seconds_remaining = fetch_auction_time_from_memcache(); echo "&

I spent a year and a half living and working overseas. I went from an apartment full of furniture to a single room in a share house. All I owned were the clothes in my cupboard and a laptop. I honestly didn't miss any of my possessions. In

Not to mention, the next library you load will clobber the `com` variable.

Just wanted to point out that the query string var is "_escaped_fragment_" with a leading and trailing underscore.

Why do apps insist on asking for every possible permission they might ever need? Can't you ask after I do something that requires advanced permissions? This is the first thing I see: http://i.imgur.com/wfWCR.png I don't even know anything

Well he doesn't look anything like Marlon Brando, which probably explains him quitting.

I just pushed up a class I've been using to do this to github. It's a little rough around the edges, but works in Firefox and IE. I've trialed with the AddThis. http://github.com/joshduck/Injector.js

Like others, I use Facebook for photos I want to share with friends and Flickr as a portfolio. Having said that, I think Facebook has a much better interface (why does Flickr still insist my photos need a title?) and having this option is g

It seems like a bad idea to differentiate between upper and lowercase case to me. I imagine most people reading a URL aloud would not specify the case. Perhaps they have done some testing.

Don't forget that JavaScript is blocking. You'd need to load the jQuery from Google dynamically by inserting script tags. By the time you've added that, timeouts and fallbacks the amount of inline JS would make hosting jQuery on a CDN point

Why should video be any different from images? I wouldn't consider putting my sites images on imgur, why should I put videos on Youtube?

In the post they say each voucher cost them $8. So it costs them $11 to serve up a coffee and cookie they sell for $13. At $2 profit per sale they are going to need each and every voucher holder to make four additional purchases just to bre

Have link HTML printed out as per normal, attach JS that routes every clicked link through your servers. E.g. This is a twitter <a href="http://bit.ly/blah" onclick="document.location='http://yourservers.com/follow?url=' +
