I'm using http://docker.webcabin.org/ and I love it. This looks great though!

This is pretty much exactly what the Milton Hershey School does. "Today, Milton Hershey School is a cost-free, private, coeducational home and school for children from families of low income, limited resources, and social need. The School is funded by a trust established by Milton S. Hershey and his wife Catherine. Milton Hershey School offers a positive, structured home life year-round and an excellent pre-kindergarten through 12th grade education. Our vision focuses on building character and providing children with the skills necessary to be successful in all aspects of life."

This article is terrible.

Amazon has stayed ahead by creating the Kindle, in-house.

Is he suggesting that the only way to be innovative is through hardware? Facebook has gone through many changes over the years, adding the wall, adding photo sharing, and a host of other things. To say

Facebook innovation is centered on changing privacy and advertising policies

is just plain wrong. Also

One can even argue he stole his original idea from the Winklevosses.

sounds like he watched The social network to many times.

The Advanced section should definitely talk about marks. http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Using_marks

Cost. In my day job we use extJS so I know it pretty well. I would have been the first one to use it in my side project. But because pretty much every other javascript frameworks is free and the extJS licensing is terrible they weren't even in the decision.

Have a look at cgdb, it's gdb with a UI modeled after vim.

I absolutely hate this idea. It's supply and demand, make an app that's amazingly better then anything else on the market and charge more for it. The fact that developers constantly re-skin games/apps and then cry that the app store is ruined because of saturation is bs. If customers are not buying an app that's $5, its not worth $5, no matter how much value you "think" it has.

I want a gaming machine that has an entertainment system, not an entertainment system that has a gaming machine. I've only owned an xbox/xbox 360 the last two generations but it sounds like playstation is catering way more towards gamers this generation, so I might switch. It really erks me that the people who brought xbox here (gamers) are the last group of people xbox seems to care about.

This is a very feel good type article. A couple of things have glaring red flags for me:

"His ideas are in various stages of development and include a food delivery service, a laser company, and a hardware accelerator program."

This tells me that he has all of these "ideas" but no actual expertise in any of these areas. How often have you heard some "bro" say they have a great idea in some field which they don't know anything about.

"Whatever he does next, Roth intends to hire from within the homeless community, which he views as a hotbed of untapped talent."

I'm sure there are some very smart homeless people out there, but you need skills in relevant technologies to be a successful worker in the type of companies hes wants to start. Food delivery might be easy for the homeless to pick up, Optoelectronics on the other hand not so much.

Good on the guy for learning some valuable skills, turning his life around and helping the homeless. Lets just try and be a little bit realistic about whats going on here though.

I wouldn't consider myself a gmail power user, but I do use it as my every day email. I love the new updates. Most of the things that gmail makes hard (and when the author says hard he means an extra click) are things that are rarely, if ever, done by me. This is exactly how I think email should function, make the stuff you use most easy.

The author mentions things like "It's hard to delete my signature." I've never done that, and if you find yourself deleting your signature all the time you might want to figure out a different work-flow / change your signature.

Most of the time when I'm trying to send an email I want to get in and out of the editor as fast as possible. I feel like the new gmail is streamlined for that exact purpose.

The problem with using stack overflow as your dataset is most of the programmers on the site are interested in expending their technical knowledge. So if 50% of "young" programmers are on stack overflow but only 20% of "old" programmers are on stack you get results that don't indicate the actual population. The only thing we can actually gather from the data is that with "programmers on stack overflow older is wiser."
