   Thanks for the suggestion - that looks fun! I already have a DS but loathe the idea of having to carry it around with me. It's definitely a very nice system, and can actually sleep for a few days unlike the 3DS.

   What sort of regulation are you envisioning?

   I enjoy it enough that I consider it an expensive way to pass time during my commute. I still dislike the IAP model, though.

   I've been playing Puzzle and Dragons for about 7 months, and have probably spent the equivalent of a $15/mo subscription over that period of time. The mechanics to make you pay absolutely feel contrived and scummy; the game strong

   Oh that's really interesting -- thanks for explaining it!

   A blog post would be great -- I really like lightweight dev processes. Do you use map files for debugging unminified JS?

   Some people have tried forking PHP, and the general response is mediocre at best. The big thing PHP has going for it is the huge amount of open source software, and the number of webhosts which support PHP by default. Most of the webhosts c

   I'd definitely be interested in reading how you organize and maintain your codebase. Have you developed an in-house framework?

   I'm the exact opposite - the idea of spending 5-25min in a car, when I could be walking, sounds dreadful. I probably walk 500 miles a year or more, simply because I don't drive. I can't imagine moving back to a suburb.

    I'm sure this feature was in the backlog since day 1. Was it pushed off due to keeping Stripe as a minimum viable product, or were there some deeper complexities in implementing this?

    The downside, though, is that the video is still playing on the laptop simultaneously.

    If Chromecast supported Amazon Video, I'd probably use it more than my HTPC.

    How long after clicking on an affiliate link do purchases count for? And does each successively clicked affiliate link override the previous one? Also, as an affiliate, do you see any metadata, or just which items were purchased overall? I

    Does Lego have any sets for children under 18-24 months? Once she gets a bit older, I agree that Lego Duplo would be a great choice, especially the gender-neutral sets. I can attest that playing with Lego as a kid was a huge part of what ev

    Make a Rails app, then look at how every feature you use is implemented. Just reading through the ActiveRecord source will get you some mileage.

    That's basically how EasyEndorse works, if you go to their website and submit the review using Safari. Texting testimonials is great in theory, but it would require either: a) A custom shortcode, and a way to associate a message with a

    That's a really interesting way of looking at it, thanks. I've always seen it as sales-or-nothin'. I'll see if I can come up with some solid questions to ask.

    Ah, it's a hypothesis.. I am/was under the impression that marketing is partially a way of testing that.

    What sort of response do you think I should be looking for from cold calling? Any time I hear stats like "only 1-3% of calls will lead anywhere" it seems like a massive time-sink. But maybe that's unavoidable?

    You definitely don't need an entire page dedicated to testimonials. http://api.easyendorse.com/example.com/ I have it setup so you can drop in a form and/or list of testimonials using JS, PHP, or a popup wind

    I feel similarly to you, and distinctly remember feeling empathetic even when I was young. Now, I see life as being deterministic, which makes it easy to think "would I not be behaving in an identical manner?" Do you think that pe

    Yeah, I was referring to your site. I was on Windows 7 at the time, and the text looked very blurry (like a low-quality jpg), but it looks sharp on my MacBook. If you can't replicate that on Windows, I'll send you a screenshot.
