Since you are already answering questions: when can we expect BitTorrent Inc to publish the protocol or at least add the option to run and use your own tracker for syncing? SyncApp…

As someone eyeing SICP with previous programming experience should I do SICP first and then do these koans? How big is the difference between Scheme and Common Lisp?

AFAIK the function returns to values but you only need name in this case, so _ discards that return value.

Opera on Windows, sorry I should have made that clear.

Keep in mind that this is just a preview, a work in progress until they are back at where they were!

A recent change in Chrome I've noticed are menus and context menus. They are no longer native and I guess they resemble ChromeOS' menus.

Ha! Right, I meant Webkit in the OP, but that answered my question anyway. Thanks!

Anybody know whether they plan to stick with Chromium or will switch to Blink in the future?

They are adding features as they go, so I might still come. Strange they left out such an essential feature however.

No, I think the fact that consumers are moving towards devices and so are the operating systems for them means Linux will win the content creators.

Looks nice but I'll stick to self-hosted readers now.

Now this does look quite nice. I'm a Reeder user and the current plan for me is to transition to Feedbin once Google Reader shuts down. The Reeder developer has mentioned that he p…

Ha! Sorry, I mistook you for Jason Fried!

A lot of people here overlook that Jim clearly must have had fun building Convoy. Working at 37Signals means that he couldn't have taken too long to build this rather simple (yet b…

Yes, Linux along with the traditional desktop will be the future for the whole creation process, while consumers will shift to other interfaces and devices.

Did anybody notice that the average internet user today is pretty similar to the one presented in the video? Users still need a lot of hand holding and guidance to use the web. Bac…
