Pretty cool. Is there a write up on architecture and usage models? I’d like to see it. I was a happy couch 1.x user, but moved away with 2.0. Nothing specific about it, just needs …

The primary focus is, indeed, archiving (and replaying and sharing, with ease) states of data. Merging has been explored, but nothing concrete on it yet. Even something relatively …

Would you mind sharing more details about how they are confusing? Always happy to take feedback. Feel free to comment here or on the community Slack, although a GitHub issue may be…

I have seen a growth of such "vcs-like" databases, but I think the preponderance remains SQL stores like MySQL/MSSQL/Postegres or NoSQL like Mongo/Cassandra/Redis/Couch/etc. For th…

This was a lot of fun. I don't care that it isn't hyper-practical, or a jQuery plugin may or may not exist. We aren't that serious about ourselves, are we?

Actually, it is an inconvenient insecure mess. It just looks good at first blush. Here is my take http://blog.atomicinc.com/2015/03/16/yahoos-on-demand-insecu... I wonder if they p…

CrashPlan since 2006, Mozy before that. Once every quarter or two, a full Time Machine to a USB drive.

Not that I am in love with "World Backup Day," but I think it is worth starting the conversation why people do not back up? Personally, I am surprised Microsoft or Apple has not bo…

It was, I just didn't know it at the time! I was simply looking for some way to write emails and spec docs in a way that everyone would have a common frame of reference with zero e…

I had not thought of that. Ha! I would go for UTC, since that is what 99.99% of the people think of (and so few even know about TAI, except for the smart ones like @jameshart! :-) …

And JavaScript is milliseconds as well. I think either would be fine, as long as it is an agreed standard. Personally, I use ms, because most programming langs can instantly conver…

Fair enough @pimlottc. But most of the time I am far more concerned with accurately capturing a moment in time than I am with making it instantly readable. I also have helped some …

Patent trolls are a major issue, especially for tech companies. I always am heartened to read stories of people standing up to these leeches.

Dunno, I always liked storing date/time as epoch. Every language under the sun seems to have a native method for working with it. Yeah, I need to deal with de/serialization, but it…

I love it. When I first started in IT (1994, don't ask...) working with London and Tokyo and San Fran and Singapore and everyone wrote dates differently. I just started writing YYY…

All of these have the same problems. If the client encrypts, then the client can be subverted. With webmail, the client is downloaded every single time, and thus can be subverted o…

I don't like this. I would like to see a standardized html way to load html partials into other html, similar to ng-include. I think that is clean. But to start mixing logic? How a…

TextMate or SublimeText support anywhere in the future?

No debate, I agree with everything you have said. But sometimes you have to clean that garbage up because it does matter to the market.
