That's a tad broad wouldn't you say?

Use APIs when possible...the methods would be dependent on what the goal is.

For small teams I prefer hangouts to anything else (GoToHellMeeting, WebHex, et al). They do need to make the archiving and extraction of data from hangouts into something easily consumed by mortals. Beyond its most root function (videoco

I grew to like Fireworks but can see how it could be effectively rolled into PS or Illustrator in some kind of FW compat mode if they wanted to. Which is to say they won't do that, and they'll otherwise likely screw the maximum number of u

And I call Mike Rogers a 54(?) year old political hack without a actual argumentative leg to stand on. This would be just another trite case of legislators wearing their donation sources on their sleeve, but the truth is that these kinds of

It's not his best work by any stretch (its overly dense and repetitive) and some factoids are off the mark, but I do like that he has pointed out that the kind of back-patting altruism everyone likes to pretend is the best reward for their

I work at SugarCRM and we use our own product to handle cases. I do know that there is Zendesk integration which has been quite popular too (assuming you might also be thinking about CRM; just throwing that out there) http://www.zendesk.c

Yes. Drawing is muscle memory/dexterity. Drawing/painting is a physically trainable skill. Creativity however, is something innate (or at least a by-product of the nature/nurture of the person) and can be expressed compulsively regardless

I'm not sold on this rallying cry, and I say that as both an artist and former volunteer staffer of DeviantArt. There will always be paces for systems brainiacs and for aesthetic wizards. The two broad categories are not mutually exclusiv

Lanier has long since "lost the plot" in that he kind of seemed to have grown to dislike the commodification of "thought leadership". Even before this I was wary of a certain preciousness that went into his thinking; a kind of "we can make

As someone who has known Carsten (Raster) for well over a dozen years, and has given him a never-ending stream of invective for being slower than George W. Bush doing calculus...its about bloody time.

The link to academic dishonesty is tenuous, but the use of it as a way to enter a discussion about admitting you don't know as a first step towards knowing is a critical point to make.

There is a certain irony here given that Pincus himself has stated his company is less about innovating and more on replicating tried and true models, and refine them to a high-margin point.

The constant dissonance between "don't you dare touch all the subsidies we give the petro" industries and the "dont you dare waste money on any alternatives" is just dumbfounding. I mean, the stuff is orthogonal to politics (or at least it

Could we? Sure. But the thin end of the wedge -which is to have it presented in a way that lets legislators think they get an advantage out of it- has yet to be played correctly...mostly because the obvious threats to their established patt

Given the amount of customization SugarCRM has out in the wild (including some really nice add-ons from partners) I'd be curious to talk about what you experienced, and to see if where we've gone since (we're near the release of 6.6 btw) ad

This sounds just bizarre. Even beyond the privacy issue, there is a PR debacle waiting to happen (man found eating Kit Kat with mistress).

As do I. I think there were only a few dozen made, so they are actually a "rare" item.

Github would never have existed without SF. That isn't to defend what SF has become, but to put it in context; to pretend that all its progeny (and they are exactly that) somehow don't owe something to that (not reverence, but just an ackn

In a word, "yes". A lot of the 3rd party DMCA mills (i.e.BayTSP, now part of Irdeto, or Attributor before it was bought by Mark Monitor) pretty much get strongarmed by their Big Content paymasters (as much as I find that bad, the combinati

...and in the process opens the floodgates of possibilities for Drizzle, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and everyone else. Oracle has already shown fairly conclusively it can do little else but mismanage its acquired Sun assets.

I worked at BayTSP for years (it's a dark scar on my soul really), and they have been DMCA crazy on torrent swarms for many years. This is not something new. It's been SOP for a very long time. There was some recent activity in the last

I have no idea why such a rather skewed bit of jingoistic pabulum made it up the HN pages. That isn't just a jab, the quality of the writing, its tenor, and its loaded (apparent) agenda seem wildly out of step with HN.

I use a bevy of various brands and sizes. Mnemosyne grid pads, Caslons, as well as stuff I've picked up at various stores like Utrecht and Amsterdam Art.
