I can't believe that this works at all. I imagine that between an established seller and a brand new buyer, Amazon would be on the side of the seller. In the cases where the buyer wins, who pays the cost of the device (the seller or

I will say it's awesome that someone has the time/ability to make a web browser... even if it doesn't support everything yet. I do have a general question for the programmers out there... just to see what people's stance

I can't believe you don't see the evil. Open your eyes. Just because a company pays 400 million for Xamarin and then open sources the Xamarin SDKs for Android, iOS, and Mac shouldn't fool you. People everywhere... revolt!

We require a specific language... the language we use for the job. The phone interview asks technical questions, a few design questions, and some personality geared questions. The technical questions are basic and cover some of the basic

One point of sending this again is that I didn't see it 200 days ago. This is awesome and I'm glad it was submitted again. I'm gonna use this in the future!

I remember this posted from a year ago. I remember reading it and being grossed out that it was a giant bug and not some sort of 6 legged bear. Why that guy would ever touch that thing is beyond me. https://news.ycombinator.com&

I have a few AOL disks that I refuse to get rid of. I don't even have a disk drive anymore. It's part of my childhood. My wife thinks I'm crazy... but I like them.

Some of the things listed in this article are more of a manager's role instead of a lead developer's role. With that being said, every company defines the lead developer role a bit differently. For anyone that is interested in a
