The first you. The second you needs to run far away from what he's doing. :) I was in that situation before -- bad agile is BAD. I was on a team of 4 developers with literally 8 project managers. I know how that daily 1 hour crappy stand up

Yet it never occurs to them when dividing people into groups that maybe they're the incompetent ones... Who's more competent? The person using Agile successfully and getting things done, the guy using no specific development process and get

Ah that explains it, it's a Python app. Would be cool to get into an interactive Python shell but I'm not sure if Heroku supports that.

I just bought it but was disappointed that there isn't an iPad optimized version. Are there plans to add that? EDIT: oh, yes there are. Please don't charge a second time ;) EDIT: Also, "releases" page isn't sorted properly -- http://d.pr/h

What rralian said -- it redirects, and I see the game, and my poor ship gets blown to bits because I can't move it.

Yep, your last paragraph is what I've been feeling. I've anecdotally seen much different results from Google since Google + Your World... searching for technical documentation has become gross -- the same queries for myself and coworkers wi

Not working with my iPhone 4. Paired successfully with the game and Safari was showing the accelerometer values(which changed as I moved the phone) but my ship wouldn't move no matter what I did.

Facebook as well... https://github.com/search?q=FB_SECRET&repo=&langOver... Not really a "vulnerability" because you can't keep stupid people from giving out their secret key.

If only it was easy to find out. Googling "Cove" doesn't return their site on the first page of results, but it's www.cove.com I found this article that... kinda... says what they did: http://allthingsd.com/20120227/qa-dropbox-nabs-early-f

What was the handwaving "send it to the JS frontend"? Are you suggesting you allow the client-side JS app to call directly against the Postgres DB or is there another approach you had in mind?

As far as I can tell, it's the same driver. I bought a replacement driver for my 555s and the packaging it came in said HD-555/595 driver.

Wait, people write books with paragraphs like that, and then other people buy them, and read them, and think it makes sense? "Your workers will have to find their own solutions(necessitating creativity) therefore they will be less creative"

I would punch a coworker that was using Grado SR-80s or Sennheiser 555s or anything open at work, as they leak so much sound and not everybody sitting near you wants to hear your music. Keep those at home. I'm surprised the SR-80s scored so

On iOS the app switching is handled via a list of recently open applications accessed by double tapping the home button. You don't get a view of the app's window contents like you do in WebOS. Probably because 1) it wouldn't visually fit wi

Convore was a pretty big hit at PyCon 2011. It was useful because it allowed people to create different rooms for each event going on at the conference. It worked really, really well. Too bad it wasn't a product that could be sold. The tech

I stand corrected, what they're doing is pretty cool. I was under the impression that it was just an application to save highlighted passages from articles but after poking around it's obvious that it's much more.

Why does every damn developer have to make a todo list application nowadays? The "hot app" lately has been these supposed productivity apps, e.g. Wunderlist, Evernote, Clear, Document Cloud, kippt, ... It's getting a little tiring :(

That's not true. Trackpad gestures are pretty awesome and it's easier to switch between applications using them as opposed to command-tab.

I've had it fail to install packages for me before, forcing me to grab them from source, modify the source with patches, and compile by hand. I've been using Homebrew for about a year and haven't ever had an issue like that.

But the point of the Miller Test is to define what obscenity is. If porn isn't obscene, then what is? I'd say porn pretty clearly fails the Miller Test, with the possibility for argument of works containing elements relating to the prurient
