I just went through the process of submitting the Canadian Football League's API and the process was structured enough - TravisCI tests to ensure a consistent documentation style - that I don't mind seeing the repo maintainer comp

I don't think the logic here holds up, and the issue is the author's ignorance of the technology and dataset involved. It's very easy for Google.com to show non-toxic results in its Video tab; it basically limits itself to re

This is terrific work - like many others I found myself needing to use Chart.js or some other abstraction layer on top of D3 in order to get anywhere. Britecharts seems to have everything its competitors does, but also looks utterly fantast

I think that makes sense. I wonder though if WhatsApp is an outlier - did they always charge a flat fee to use their messenger client, or is that a recent thing (after they attracted immense numbers of users)?

Is that system still popular? I've started lots of tabs in the last few years, and it's always been purely an oral conversation - they only get my card at the end when I'm settling up.

It's private. Sorry, that's sort of pertinent information.

Excellent news! I work for a very large publisher in Canada that uses WordPress as its CMS of choice. Because we use Akamai and shrug at bandwidth costs, I don't have much of an argument there to use of this service, but shrinking all

The interviews were for all of 15 minutes anyways. I'm not so bent on time efficiency that I felt it necessary to save myself and the applicant twelve minutes by concluding the interview early. Also, I'm human and that's a level of cold tha

I can't help but wonder if Forstall (Apple) and Sinofsky (MS) are two men who would have been strong, maybe even visionary leaders had they been allowed to reach the position of CEO at either company. I tend to feel that Jobs only made CEO

Is nine months really enough time to make a determination whether a company is viable? It seems a little on the short side, and I recall reading in a number of places that you can only truly know how it's going a couple of years in. Is the

Key in my mind is a large number of casual walk-bys of people with no hobbyist interest in electronics. That would be Best Buy's competitive advantage in this space.

I thought this post was absolutely brilliant. It's completely outside of Best Buy's current corporate culture, but perhaps they understand that experimentation is greatly needed. I envision a specific, labeled section within Best Buy stores
