What Open Source projects are similar? It seems like data transformation tasks like this are a universal problem. I'd just do map/reduce, but that's the advantage that comes with b…

It's a painful learning curve, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth it. I used to do all my apps in jQuery and was pretty adept at cross-component communication using events. Angul…

I've been watching these guys for 6+ years. It's an agonizingly slow process to wait for their website updates.

You guys make it sound like Bluffdale, Utah is akin to the Mojave. Here along the Wasatch Front the weather's fairly pleasant most of the year. This July we got an abnormally large…

I'm sure it's possible, but there are several other large-ish data centers within a 15-mile radius that don't seem to have the same problems. Ebay just built one that's running off…

The school I teach at has recently found that women are actually more valued than their male counterparts by employers at the time of graduation. They've been averaging 4% higher j…

I'd recommend an intermediary step between free and subscription. Today I'll go there once to check it out and provide a review, but unless you sell me RIGHT NOW I'm gone as a cust…

How I Became a Barefoot Runner http://suburbiarebooted.blogspot.com/2010/01/how-i-became-ba...

I switched to forefoot walking after having some serious foot problems, but it was really difficult to learn how to do it in shoes. Once I started going barefoot, it just came natu…

I live in Utah, and drive a scooter-style ebike to work. See ( http://www.utahebikes.com ) for an example. It's even one step further from a bike because you don't actually have to…

We software developers will have to actually start paying attention to code bloat and performance. We won't be able to count on beefier hardware to run our next round of sloppy hac…
