I think this is just Quora wanting the YC branding to make them more hip. I'm thinking an underhand deal went through to get them in. Quora has the wealth and influence to make tha…

This seems like a cool way to learn Objective-C and iOS development. Can I make an entire working app using this, or is it only meant for prototyping/mock-ups?

EdTech is booming, and there is a lot of money to be made. Google Apps for Business is booming. Google Apps for Education, likewise, will boom in the same way. If you seriously thi…

It looks like it's just scraping the portfolio pages of most of these, and most portfolio directories list nothing more than a company's name and website. That said, doesn't AngelL…

I do the exact same, but with the added step of adding the backup passwords for Google/Dropbox to the extra text fields you can add in 1Password. (For the very rare case of "I lost…

We're still years away from HTML5 applications reaching the performance of native desktop applications. Atom.io is too slow for most Sublime users, especially on hardware that is n…

Note to self, sensationalized media to ignore in the future: recode.net

Wow, that is a really nice site. I'm looking at it in my iPad Mini Retina and it's way better looking than Stackoverflow.

> The reason women complain about being 'discriminated' is because it works so well for them Probably the most bullshit thing I will have read this month.

Okay, this is just hardcore. http://labs.strava.com/heatmap/#11/-117.10332/36.51021/blue/...

That may work for 1 video and a few stills. Now try hundreds of videos and stills. I sure as hell don't want to wade through that.

From an IT support perspective, it could become a minor annoyance. It's not uncommon for support to request the URL or have the user manipulate it in some way. Now they have to ins…

I did know about and tried vagrant-lxc, and even the per 3rd party vagrant-docker implementations. None of them worked well or provided the right amount of ease of use and features…

Passionate language like that is used all over the industry, especially from start ups. So why is it a big deal if it's used to describe PHP? If the Ruby on Rails blog made a post …

> your core business model isn't that hot You can't just make a statement like that and play it off. Citations? I see Square devices used everywhere in retail, and no, I don't live…

Don't read it so literally. They're just saying it's the newest PHP tech at Heroku. New as in "hip", "latest", "trendy", etc..

Why are you getting your jimmies rustled for no reason? Stop getting offended over nothing. They didn't say "PHP developers are makers at heart. No one else is."

I have wanted this since Docker was announced last year. In my eyes the biggest gain of Docker for development over VMs is boot time. Now I can turn all my Vagrant VBoxes to Docker…

He was being sarcastic.

No offense, but did you bother to research Marvel _at all_ before asking this question? popapp app's landing page makes it very clear the workflow is physical paper -> photo -> sto…

I know Famo.us is pitched at app building, but how about websites? Would Famo.us-Angular be worth it for making a landing page with cool animations, or should I just stick with the…

Yea, but are you changing the world like Silicon Valley start-ups are? /sarcasm

I think the coolest thing about self-driving cars is they can create a mesh network with one another. If I'm driving to work and a traffic accident occurs 2 miles ahead on my route…

Apples to oranges. No car passengers have ever died because a cyclist hit them.

Search Twitter, /r/programming, HN, Stackoverflow, or Google for the Github project and read opinions. Works 95% of the time. (Also bookmark this thread and come back to it in a fe…
