Thanks for the recommendation! I think the hard part is to walk the line between stagnation & over-expansion. This is a dilemma we all face in organizations large and small as well as individually. Building systems and processes (a.k.a

Funny how this comes on the heels of aggressively expanding their workforce and trying to leverage themselves in a hundred different directions... Maybe it's just me and my confirmation bias at work, but it seems that the core value pr

Yeah, it's interesting, I've had the same experience. There's not so much magic lurking beneath the surface. Things are relatively easy to track down when you do need to figure things out; otherwise, things are pretty intuiti

Sorry, I think I got a bit sidetracked in my response. I do hope that your current situation gets better or that you find somewhere that isn't so preoccupied with navel gazing.

Huh... didn't even know what POODR was... Guess I've been faking it for the past nine years... I mean, I did start a company that used Ruby/Rails as the primary platform. And I've worked the last six years in a shop th

the enemy of the good is the perfect. There is no "objective" news; people will always have different ideas of truth; however, i think in this case it's easy to discern a difference by the objective of the actors. Some actors

Ha, my first gig with a hosting company, 2950 was at the top of every. single. rack. We grew that company from a rack to about 40 racks using 2950s. Each one of those racks had hundreds of VPS customers. We didn't have issues with 2950

Sorry, but there's not much to support the idea that Nokia could have magically made it if only they had picked Android. The first Samsung Galaxy was shipped in 2009[0] -- over a year before Elop was made CEO of Nokia [1] and nearly tw

Back when crushable foam helmets first came out, there was just an elastic cover wrapped around a foam helmet. The effect of the helmet impact was that it always broke apart; the helmet cover just kept the pieces together after impact. Most

I'm sorry, but doesn't this completely ignore the fact that the state has not sanctioned partnerships between same-sex couples and codified that relationship universally? And where those partnerships are sanctioned, it has only ha

I can't see the Blockbuster analogy fully working here. It seems that a big reason why the old video rental model died was simply convenience. .com is the more convenient choice due to inertia. It seems to me that a better analogy is t

It would be awesome to extend this into a library based on FontAwesome; create an abstraction layer which would allow easy reference like CSS.

Yes, one has been able to graft nix to Windows since NT; however, it's still like a third arm dangling off of C:\whatever. If Microsoft can make a POSIX layer like OS X did -- one that ships with the OS and feels like it is part of the

Not sure how sincere you're being, but I'll explain: Robotics is expensive, which is why people are still doing these tasks. 3D printing helps make robotics ubiquitous. Think back to the golden era before the PC, or the days of yo

This is an interesting thought, and I really like how you've expressed it. The metaphor of mediaeval monks to your canonical computer scientist and of the modern university to monasteries is so rich, but you only hint at it. Considerin

I understand that the Smalltalk like syntax of Objective C can be difficult to understand at first glance; however, once you've worked with it a bit, the syntax becomes quite expressive -- each argument is labeled; something like using

Jumpcut is fairly close to what you're asking for. I guess you could map command + v to Jumpcut & override default paste functionality. Personally I prefer to use option + v. http://jumpcut.sourceforge.net .

my solution to this is to have an auto-login non-admin account on the machine that's not my own account. Give them enough access to get on the internet & use the machine. Keep my files stored in my own account.

Only the first use would need remote access. Assuming that the user just downloaded from the app store, that should be fairly safe assumption. After the initial connection is made and the trial started, the trial end date can be verified vi
