Hi, I'm Dean, the first software engineer at Glowforge. Our software deals with a fair amount of Rails, but we also have Node and Python micro services for certain processes. The U…

I'd never thought of Harold and the Purple Crayon as related to programming. How is that? In perhaps the broadest sense the crayon gives him the power and freedom to create in the …

I do considerable design and photographic work in OS X. I've been on the Mac platform for my entire life, and I have no real reason to switch now. That said, most of my development…

I didn't write the copy, but I did do the design. We're proud to be part of this protest. Thanks for your kind words.

What about "503: Service Intentionally Unavailable"? Edit: Actually, I don't want to change it. I don't think our readers will read three words and skip the explanation. I think mu…
