If $500 seems expensive you might not be ready to start paying somebody $5000 every month, not to mention all the additional expenses that come with having an employee. You could advertise for 10 mont…

Thanks for the heads up.

Can anybody tell me if you can run Go in Chrome using the NaCL stuff? I remember there was talking of it a few years ago but I don't know if anything ever came of it. A google seach show that you…

There are a lot of great comments in here already but I'll add my 2c anyhow because it's something I have been thinking a lot about lately. Python is my absolute favorite language without a …

10B for slack! OMG I'm in the wrong business.

Fully agree, but I think they they could at least have some in house talent pumping out experiments. Would be a dream job for me to be on twitters payroll building experiments and functional prototype…

I think making tweets more readable would help a lot. I think pulling @ addresses, hashtags, and URLS out of the body would give every tweet more breathing room and make more sense to an everyday user…

I agree, and you know what? I think online newspapers could be so much better. Imagine an online paper where, instead of just mimicking a real newspaper with story after story, a site that collects fa…

I must admit I was a little surprised when I first powered up my Surface pro. I had not used a windows machine since the early days on windows 7 but needed to start at least looking at my games on win…

Hey Agustus, Thanks very much for the feedback! The new Blight of the Immortals is an all new game built on the ashes of the old game. The game infact didn't change from about 2010 when I stopped…

We are in a similar place right now. I'm looking forward to seeing what people have to say. Blight of the Immortals only has about 50 daily active users. We would like to grow a little to get a b…

Can you tell us if the core components are the same. Node, Redis, Mongo? I've been looking at Node, Redis, PostgreSQL for my next project.

I don't really think it's hacky. For many years I would run 2 browsers side by side. Firefox for personal and Chrome for Business. It makes a nice separation and you don't need to worry…

I'm a huge fan of Trello and before that, Fogbugz. Thanks very much!

We don't do school lunches here in Australia. My parents packed me lunch every day for 10 years, and I'll do the same for my kids. It's really no big deal.

I'm not sure if you are trying to be funny or sarcastic or whatever, but windows uses a window icon in the bottom right for their big os hamburger.

I can get on board with the idea that the hamburger is bad for developers because we want our users to use our app a specific way. If the button is in their face, they are more likely to click on it …

The hamburger menus mean "show me more actions I can perform." Pretty simple if you ask me.

I think he meant that young designers overstate the problem by saying it was "worse the clippy". I'm sure these folks you mention aren't so overstated.

I spent a day hooking up Mixpanel. Went over quota quickly and discovered that, instead of just dropping data when you go over quota, they lock your account and blackmail you to becoming a paying cust…

This would be a lot easier to read in Python.

I'd love to fix steam!

Should be locked up next door to the guys that started YouTube.

Yeah right, I was excited by the idea that we might be able to download all kinds of cool UI's for our phones. I was thinking of developing a really minimalistic almost commandline interface for …

I find it's still a fairly good indicator. Last time I was looking for a new author I went back and compared the author's average rating. Authors I like were 4+. Authors I think are OK score…

By using percentage values?

I think everybody knows it, but "you've got to be in it to win it".

I see you have some downvotes but I came here to say the same thing. Zuck is using the birth of his daughter to advertise a new venture. You want to be generous? Great, do it! Telling us in a letter t…

Oh, do you mean as a managed VM?

> also worth noting that Node.js support for App Engine is currently in beta. Is this public? I have been waiting to hear this for ages! Great News. I am planning a switch to node simply so I can r…
