Haven't been here a while and the first 2 links I clicked are walled. Seems like shilling sites to the front-page of HN might be a decent business.

Firefox is my primary browser, so it doesn't affect me, however this has already caused confusion within the web agency world I work in, both with technical staff and clients.

If we were living in the colonial days, only the British would be calling them "radical" or "extremists". :D Men of authority pledging not to bow to unconstitutional orders against…

FWIW, I knew it was a clever reference to the GOT sword after reading the title. It's obvious the project isn't based on or associated with a group using the same common words. Whe…

Like the Stack Overflow survey, this one does not distinguish server-side/client-side JavaScript, making it look far more popular than it actually is when considering the data in c…

The "Most Popular Technologies" section of the Stack Overflow survey is often interpreted wrong due to missing context. It does a great disservice to the industry because of how re…

Boycott all AT&T services we can if they are blocking. Mobile + DirecTV too.

Paywall, from the US at least.

Ads that auto pay audio on a developer blog, really?

New success quickly becomes the new baseline and a personality that chases success will continue to pursue greater success.

I watched the announcement w/o knowing much about it. He justified the decision by saying: - We're paying 100b/year when other developed countries do not have to. - Spending on tha…

Front page worthy, really?

Forget about the skills you need to become a better CTO, I think the headline here is how to successfully stroke the ego of your interviewer.

An ng-conf announcement came via email, expressing this in the 2nd sentence: "After much blood, sweat, tears, pain and suffering, the new website has been launched, and we think it…

So you are defending them (at least in the first sentence)from your speculation based on what you heard around town, that customers were simply not sustainable fits... Wouldn't it …

Are you sure the assessment web programming being a series of hacks on hacks isn't an artifact of inheriting a fairly long-lived and large code base? I don't think I've touched a l…
