    It's great that Duke is going to make it, but at this point does it really even matter??? Products that take this long to ship generally aren't the worst ones to hit the market, bu…

    From each of these different things like this I have seen, even people that get unbanned (rare) don't seem to know why. Although FWIW I have never used Facebook for anything.

    The fact that "mastered" was in quotes leads me to believe the author may have been implying that they had not really mastered that much at all, but had an inflated opinion of thei…

    On top of that find some local user groups that use your language of choice, they are normally very welcoming of new programmers. If you are friendly and want to learn, you will su…

    I found that as well. Loading it into Instapaper worked quite nicely for readability.

    Currently it has 88 1 star ratings out 107 ratings, then 27 5 star ratings, so I don't really get it. I guess 27 people are right near each other and seeing lots of photos? I love …

    I assume that this is from the same people that bring us Spreedly? http://spreedly.com Or am I wrong?

    It's pretty well known that Github like to hire people that have impressed them with projects that they have worked on, so I'd say it's pretty safe to say that for the most part th…

    That's true, how dare they build something that facebook has had a stab at! But seriously, people might not have the people they want to talk to about tech or something else on fac…

    Maybe it is cheaper .... but maybe not in terms of time as you are now responsible for maintaining said server and keeping it up. I am the team lead of a small 3 dev team, we manag…

    I'm sorry how is that a catch? Seems to me that is key to it being Open Source and freely available?

    I was playing poker for a while and I actually found Flop Turn River to be an awesome place to go and read about the game. It's a smaller community than Two Plus Two, but there are…

    The author seems to point out that the main problem with the just get started mantra is that there is a good chance that you will fail. My understanding was that people knew this, …

    Actually that is unreasonable. You'd like to think they might, but expecting it is foolish, they are providing a service, if you don't pay you aren't entitled to the service. Linod…

    Isn't it a little misguided to claim that AnitVirus stuff is unwarranted?? Granted you are unlikely to be infected by a virus on linux/unix machine, but that doesn't mean that you …
