A plugin for the Sequel gem to enforce privacy policies at the ORM layer; inspired by Facebook's Ent framework. I've been working on it for over a year, within a side project app a…

Apps have different reasons for accessing SMS messages: confirming phone numbers via SMS, SMS bridging like previous versions of Messenger or Hangouts, etc. The link eco posted is …

There are a lot of opportunities to create great tools for designers – and you're right that QC has an uncertain future. However, QC is a really powerful tool, and shapes the way w…

A high-level talk I gave at Waza this year on how designers and developers consider similar things and build skills in similar ways.

I think adding tiers would muddy their service model – the default answer is /always/ not to do something, adding a feature or constraint should only happen with a compelling reaso…

Ah, no biggie. Go Ahead and run with Amber.js, launch your site and updates your namespaces. I doubt they'll be any toe-trampling confusion. At most there'd be one or two feathers …
