    I think the trick is to shed your imposter syndrome, but remain humble. You can be confident and humble at the same time. It can come with accurate self-assesment. Keeping your wea…

    How would you recommend becoming familiar with idiomatic Go? I've read various articles including (but not limited to) tutorials, made a point of exploring a few open source projec…

    BTW, feedbin.me DOES work on mobile. The layout adjusts and shows just the list or just the article view, instead of both at the same time.

    Right. I read that, and in hindsight should have used more inclusive wording. Anyway, I really like Feedbin even though it could use a bit more polish (a couple of animations would…

    Reeder is going to use Feedbin. See: http://reederapp.com/reader/

    I also noticed that it counts the Mac and PC versions of games separately. e.g. Sid Meier's Civilization IV has 2 IDs: 3900 and 34440

    Don't you think the reality is some middle ground? It's a perfect game controller for some games .

    Sort of. You can rearrange the task circles, but they float into a somewhat arranged layout. In practice this means that the order is not immediately obvious.

    I played with it a bit and unless I missed something, the size of the circle is only related to how many other circles are inside it.

    The circles actually seems to reduce value because there is no intuitive order to each group. In some (many?) use cases for Trello, priority is important. One thing that the circle…

    Trello does have Google Drive integration. You can attach files to cards from your Computer, Google Drive or Dropbox.

    I wanted to compare the old and new pages, but noticed that their robots.txt disallowed the wayback machine from caching it. Also, the Octocat was not on the page that Google cache…

    I've heard a few times before that the iOS keyboard invisibly grows the touch target on the letters it predicts are most likely to be typed next. Unfortunately, my quick attempt to…

    Potty training; put baby on the toilet before the diaper gets wet. Babies can be "trained" a remarkably young age, if the parents can predict urination.

    I personally find it useful to have a plankton mode and a shark mode, switching between them as necessary. Drifting is useful at times, but you definitely miss out on many of the b…

    I've seen randomized images bypassed by simply taking a screenshot in conjunction with logging keyboard and mouse actions.

    Just FYI, the first iPad will not be compatible with iOS 6. Still a pretty decent lifespan, but coming to an end.

    The idea is for the light to be definitive, but I am not sure how secure they are. Also, as far as I can tell/remember all Macs have indicator lights on their cameras.

    The motivation of the question may be opinion based, but the actual question is technical in nature. "Is there a way to find out which framework and components are used in an iOS a…

    Last summer I evaluated Lift vs Play 1.x and was leaning heavily toward Play. I wrote some toy apps in each. We chose Lift only because it turned out that Play was incompatible wit…
