Love the UI. What I would really love though is a site in which I can give a URL to a recipe I like, and it parses everything for me into a common format. Having to manually enter ingredients / directions when much of the time I'd just like

As an addition to this, the backbone model binding plugin is great for binding models to views. https://github.com/derickbailey/backbone.modelbinding

I was quite impressed with how MongoDB handled everything. They were quick to respond in an intelligent (read: not hot air) manner, admitted that their product still has some shortcomings that they're working on. I wish more companies were

Also depends on where you live. For example, in Washington an employer cannot claim ownership of something you built in your own time, assuming that you didn't use any of their resources.

Are you going to be doing some intense marketing in small geographic areas? This is the type of app that depends on high participation in a small area - I have a hard time seeing how it will succeed without focusing on a small area first.

Isaascson had 40 some-odd interviews with Jobs, and none of it was censored by Jobs apparently, so the biography ought to give a good picture of the real jobs. From the 60 minutes interview with Issaacson, it seems like a fairly honest appr

It seems a bit silly to use a video clip created with a 1k slow mo dolly and another 1k in video editing software. For some reason I just don't see the average user using that equipment.... And even with that....it doesn't really look that

Keep in mind this post was originally from 2007. jQuery started in mid-2006. When this was originally written, there really weren't many effective abstractions of the DOM.

It doesn't say anything about how Obama reacted, besides continuing the conversation with him. Who is to say he didn't appreciate the candor?

From what I've read, New Coke also had more salt, in an effort to make people more thirsty, and thus drink more Coke.

This essentially exists already with Google voice search. It isn't exactly game changing.

I myself am a ASP.NET MVC developer by day, and play with Node.JS by night. I agree with you on the difficulty in moving outside the .NET world, but I will say ASP.NET MVC isn't nearly as bad as webforms. Webforms abstracts so much of how t

Have you looked into zombie.js ( http://zombie.labnotes.org/ )? It allows for selectors as well, and is a very straight forward headless browser.

So is this a competitor to something like spreedlycore? I'm trying to find a recurring billing provider which can handle multiple merchant accounts, and the only thing close was spreedlycore, which handles the processing but none of the rec

Man - I would kill for this. We use fogbugz / kiln right now, and integration into these boards for cases / users / pushes would be the icing on the visibility cake.

Stackoverflow is written in .NET. It certainly has a more "corporate" focus than node or something - but that's not to say there aren't people building cool applications with it.

Google docs might have not gone down for everyone, but when we used it, twice we had instances where entire documents got nuked. Eventually two week old backups were restored, which was essentially useless for the type of documents they bot

Maybe I'm just an idiot, but it took me much longer than it should have to get SSH support setup for Github on my Windows box. I had no such issues with Hg.

Having used Mercurial and Git, I have to say I vastly prefer the interface of Mercurial. It still has its quirks, but overall I find it much easier to use, especially on Windows. Git was very clearly built as a Unix solution first, with Win
