We can secure that using the current heuristics.

I don't see way I can't update this hypothetical heuristic collection. :)

I wish for a future in which I can just sit down and my computer uses all sorts of heuristics to determine whether it's me or not, and authenticate. * Checks my posture. * Checks the sounds I make whi…

Hear, hear. The good software engineers are worth the money; they care about your product and apply years of expertise.

>find invaluable in one of my software engineers -depending on the job-. I think you kind of answered the question yourself. ;)

May I ask what companies you've been asked these questions for?

I became unreasonably angry while reading this. I guess it struck a nerve with me for some reason. During my interviews, I was very charismatic, confident in my skills, was asked technical question th…

I may have misused the term 'cold-lead'. Basically we have a form where interested people can request information, then we add them to our lists. And it's TOS approved because MailChimp has an intervi…

Too soon, man; too soon.

Nah, I'm here to get shit done, get paid and get out. Keep your games for the fresh graduates. I'm a professional, not a monkey that will work on Sundays for you because "it's fun."

Is that the font that's sort of a "cheaper" Helvetica? (In price, not quality)

I suggested my company use MailChimp to send cold-lead emails for our sales department and it has worked phenomenally well. Lots of closed deals, lots of profits and their website is very easy to use,…

I haven't found a good starting point. The two main contenders I've read in non sequential order: 1. Micheal Heartl's Rails Tutorial. 2. Pragmatic Programmers Bookshelf - Agile Rails 3.2 (4th Edition)…

Probably why I haven't delved into RSpec yet. "it should send message to owner and shave whiskers from monkey. also, make my a latte." That DSL seems like a bit much and I don't feel comfortable let…

I disagree that using Rails Tutorial as a beginner resource is the way to go. In fact, I used that as my first resource for learning Rails! Here are some problems I found with it: 1. It teaches you Gi…

Lovely website! I always kick myself when I'm two weeks into a project and my CSS is starting to get unwieldy. Keeping CSS rules clean and well thought-out pays for itself in the long run, I know this…

Spez, from Reddit, says he isn't a cofounder: http://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/d2njs/til_the... …

I'm not sure if this is free or not. Someone in the comments below mentioned this was a bait and switch scam where they make it look free, then push some payments on you. Any confirmation on the 'free…

I kind of find it in poor taste to post this link at this point in time. Just my thoughts.

What if you need to enable access to Java 7 again on your Mac machine? Is there a setting you click that says, "I know the risks, let it run anyway."? I find it hard to believe that a consumer desktop…

I think you missed his point. :)

Chrome, the new "IE6". Coming 2016. Mark my words.

I love f.lux and can't recommend it enough for software developers who work with code. If you're a designer then you probably can't use this. Desginers need colors to display properly. Set the transit…

Are you referring to my comment? I'm not quite sure if you're agreeing with me, or just going off on a tangent and not actually refuting my point.

As I was reading I was thinking to myself, "Damn! This guy must really love his job. I can't imagine being that loyal to a company for years and years and years. Unless I was a co-founder and it was p…

All of these examples further solidify my hapiness in switching from C# to Ruby as my primary language. It's so beautiful! The project I'm working on wants to send SMS messages to clients, but we post…

I agree completely, it's just that this error seems so obvious and dangerous that it's odd it hasn't been caught for over 7 years. ps: I love Tekpub! Are there any plans for some new Rails videos? I…
