That's quite surprising - Amish furniture tends to go for a massive premium!

Couldn't agree more. I'm a developer by trade, the skills of breaking down a problem into manageable chunks and coming up with a gameplan to get it done are directly transferrable over to woodworking. Woodworking is all about prob

My company (Surge Forward) is 100% telecommute, so an office can be whatever you want it to be! Some days I work from home, or if I'm having trouble concentrating I might go work out of a coffee shop. It works perfectly for me.

Same here. I'd be more interested in seeing how long an average user stays on facebook when they visit. Myself, I might log on several times a day, but only spend maybe a minute on each visit...it just doesn't feel as engaging as

I enjoy woodworking when I'm not coding, so I have several woodworking channels I enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/user/urbanTrash - Frank Howarth - Beautiful projects and his videos are very creative. https:/

Why wouldn't they dilute their brand? They've built up a reputation of building a high end product. If someone begins selling a product that looks nearly identical to their own, that's of inferior quality, how does that not a

Isn't permitting info in the public domain? I wonder why they don't leverage that?

.NET is massive driver for their Enterprise business which is an absolute goldmine for them currently. So I'd say they're doing okay there.

I would suggest focusing on how you're different from your competitors. At a first glance from your site, I have a hard time distinguishing you from say, Freshbooks.

If I can plug my company - http://www.surgeforward.com/ We're 100% remote, and work hard to keep things fun. I'd encourage you to apply.

Bummer - I'm just across the border in Bellingham, but I'll be on my honeymoon then! Looks like some great content.

Best of luck - this is exactly what we're looking for. Suggestion: It would be fantastic if we could port existing merchant accounts or (better yet) existing gateways. For example, we're currently using Braintree for web transacti

That's 300 dollars per platform right? So 600 dollars if I wanted to create an android / ios app?

I'm curious about Xamarin - has anyone used it, in addition to something like Phonegap / Appcelerator? How does it compare?

Curious how this compares to https://scoutapp.com/ The big disadvantage I see is that I still need to manually install these plugins on each server, whereas with scount my understanding is it's 1 click installs?

My experience has been that, while planning meetings are quite painful, they're the most valuable part of Agile. Forcing yourself to sit down every week and decide what really matters is extremely valuable and keeps teams focused.

How recently was this? I used the CSE encryption library instead of transparent redirect in my implementation, and it wasn't bad at all. I'm actually a bit confused by this announcement, as it looks essentially the same as their existing cl

I've had a very good experience integrating with Braintree. For my use case, most of my customers have existing merchant accounts with significantly lower rates than they would pay through Stripe (or a competing product), so the ability to

Because silverlight takes all of 15 seconds to download and install, and Visual F# is an hour+ to install, plus a couple hundred megabytes of additional assets?

What this misses is that for many mental illnesses, is that the connection between actions and consequences is broken. My brother had EXTREME issues with oppositional defiance disorder and ADHD growing up. I can guarantee you my parents mad

Indeed! I just switched over to select2 from Chosen yesterday. The excellent UI of Chosen, but with a MUCH better API.
