We’ve got people starting every week and open headcount for seniors.

For companies that do on-campus recruiting it is the busiest hiring time of year. But for experienced devs it might be a weird time to look.

If by burning the trees you are also permanently changing the use of that land from forest to agricultural then you are changing how much carbon is held by that area. This leaves a…

I agree. Ten to fifteen years ago I saw stream of UML horror stories. The tools were expensive, complex, and you never needed or wanted 90% of what they could do. But PM's loved to…

I remember in the late 90's I'd download the full set of javadocs to have them locally on my computer so I didn't have to wait to browse them over the network. In fact I had burned…

Having played a lot of 2048 and Threes, I have to say that while 2048 is fun, it is a shadow of the game that Threes is. There is a polish and outright joy to Threes that the clone…

If you're going to publicly shame people for making inappropriate puns you'd be well served to keep your own semi-public behavior impeccable.

First a disclaimer: I think this is outrageous and hope that her account is restored. Now my questions: Does her account use her home address? That seems unlikely as she is in Norw…

Nonsense. I took a camera phone photo at a McD's in Hong Kong earlier this year and several employees freaked out and they all came over to ask me to delete it. Are ALL the stores …

This is exactly why I kicked in $80, tweeted this thing, and linked to it on Reddit. I think it is hitting $200k for sure, the question is whether it can plow through to $300k.

Invest? Hardly. If it is an investment then I'm a VC and should have a stake in the resulting company. Frankly, I think that Kickstarter should head towards this model and fund com…

I attended the talk. It was pretty cool, especially the OpenCV part. Frankly I think he needs to upgrade the armaments. Hook that bad boy up to the hose with a nozzle. Frankly, if …

Here's the thing. His rich dad is fictional. He doesn't make money the way he tells you to. He's not a real estate mogul. He make money selling books and seminars. If the advice he…

you can skip a track by double clicking the microphone button. Center button if you have the three button microphone.

I've been using the Strong Lifts 5x5 app for a few weeks and have felt that the need to fiddle with it after each set is a drawback. This looks like it solves that problem and adds…

That is interesting to me. I've developed an iOS game that uses precises touch/swipe gestures to control movement. In iOS 3.2 Apple changed the infrastructure for touch events such…

Get her an old copy of Kids and the Commodore 64 and a Commodore 64. Then she'll be retro cool.

I was detained for several hours at the Montreal airport trying to enter Canada. The immigration officer at one point started yelling at me about Wal-Mart and how Canada isn't like…

My level of confidence in the Belize Development Trust, which produced this "document", just dropped through the floor.

Do you have an iOS SDK? What are the licensing terms? I'd love to integrate this into some of my math games.

Oh wow. This would make my iPad math game so much better. I already have handwriting, just no handwriting recognition... http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/math-battle/id476344792?mt=8…
