Cat.jpg from an unknown user of Basecamp. This tells us nothing about anyone. Get over it.

Way to miss the point of the post. This person won't hire anyone because it is too expensive to run a company with employees. The point is, Hungary has created an environment that greatly threatens the profitability, and therefore, sust

Actually he says he wouldn't hire anyone , because he won't be attempting startups in the first place. You shouldn't get in trouble for your hiring policies when it is simply: "I don't have employees."

I believe if you are enrolled in Instant they will spot the money for any purchases you make beyond the amount you already have in your account, up to $500 worth. So it just enables you to use Dwolla for purchases without having to wait fo

Their sample code page ( https://developer.v.me/docs/sample_code ) indicates they are using Chase Paymentech underneath. V.me appears to be a service layer abstraction (read: middleman). It will be interesting to see if this gains tracti

Not an endorsement of Dart at all, considering people who haven't really learned javascript by now are going to be the same people who won't really learn Dart in the future.

I'm not understanding what the complaint in that is, exactly. Is it that the Sprint/cellular side of the usage is limited while the wifi usage is not?

I don't think they are referring to Google App Engine specifically, but all servers from Google running their own custom http server (where the http response header for Server = "gws"). That's pretty significant, considering how much traff

Yeah, there's no way it stays under two watts per hour if a drive (spindle or solid state) and wifi are running.

Guess how I learned about and downloaded Netscape on Windows back in the mid 90s?

You've heard of Novell, right? Microsoft didn't break it, it just wasn't that good. AD isn't horrible at all; I use it regularly and have zero issues.

Need a webserver and database setup? Easy, a few clicks on Heroku and I'm good to go. That's a different path entirely, though not necessarily a bad one. The full stack isn't under your control on Heroku.

You could buy up all his days and tell him his job is to not fly anywhere.

Heroku currently supports Python, or is that something that is in the works? I can't find much on this...

Inflation plays a huge role with regard to timing and compared to the average mortgage rates of other owners/landlords. If you start a 4% fixed rate mortgage today and do not move anywhere in 10 years, you don't have to cover the cost of c

Wouldn't that just make the cost of borrowing go up?

The analogy still works. Don't let taxes and wars confuse you. Both entities have limits to both the amount of revenue they take in and and the expenditures they make.

I'm not sure how excited and fulfilled one can be by doing a simple and repetitive task several hundred times a day.

Generally, people are not "fundamentally good". Generally, most people are only good when they believe the reward for being so is >= the required effort or discomfort (rewards aren't always monetary and could be as simple as feeling

There's water vapor in the Milky Way, although the total amount is 4,000 times less than in the quasar, because most of the Milky Way’s water is frozen in ice. How could they possibly know this?

It absolutely does not. Have you heard of the QE* programs from the Fed?

Not sure why I'm downvoted, SHA-512 is obviously better than MD5 and we don't know the details. The constant spewing that bcrypt is the only way to hash a password is getting old fast. <edit> Ok, whatever, keep downvoting, fucker

True, but I think this has been fixed, assuming their new site is live: "The new Mt. Gox site features SHA-512 multi-iteration, triple salted hashing and soon will have an option for users to enable a withdraw password that will be separat

When down voting, please explain. If working as an unpaid intern is indeed horrible and so incredibly lacking in non-monetary value, then people will learn there is no reason to voluntarily engage (or continue) in such a relationship.

At least a few of these are CS classics. Do you actually have something against these books (e.g. Donald Knuth), or are you just annoyed with the affiliate links?

Git is tracking the changes and history, not GitHub.
