What are you doing right now to work out in terms of how often you go, what you do at the gym, and so forth? More importantly, what are your goals? I'd love to help.

It's taught sometimes that the simple method is never the "good" approach, and that the fancier and more elaborate you are, the better the solution will be. I'm not just talking about code, either.

When did "simple" become such a dirty word? Simple isn't synonymous with lazy.

What about running? I have to be the most creative person alive.

This is probably going to be helpful for people who can't afford to pay 1-2 months of rent due to not having a job, so they can calculate what they'll owe down the road.

I've seen situations where one person is "temporarily" handling the lion's share of the rent, and as that temporary situation becomes indefinite, resentment starts boiling.

I started off in web and frontend development, but I know of IC designers who switched to web work.

Thank you for rebutting the whole "travel" thing. Traveling's more expensive than ever these days, especially if (god forbid) your travel destinations are international.

What's easy for Mark Zuckerberg isn't easy for a complete novice to whom programming doesn't come naturally.

Welcome to GoDaddy's customer service. I don't even let them have my domain names. Use NameCheap (and no, I'm not being paid to endorse them).

Congrats!

As a content creator myself it's disappointing when I see Adblock rates as high as they are, but I absolutely get it. If I'm upset at anyone in the Adblock debate it's the advertisers; the people who introduced intrusive pop-ups, auto playing videos, and those obnoxious banners with the smileys that scream "OH MY GOD, NO WAY!"

Then there are the issues of ads causing videos to freeze, browsers to crash, and containing malware. Or what if the ads are offensive to you or you have young kids in the house? For me it's impossible to blame users who just want to view their content in the most optimal way, which is why I see Adblock as a barometer for how satisfied users are with the way websites are delivering both paid and organic content.

I don't know where I'd be without http://css-tricks.com/ - great site and super helpful forums.

Alternatively, if you know enough PHP, you can build everything you need into a custom theme's options without resorting to too many plugins and risk slowing your website down.

I really can't say I'll be in mourning over this. I've lost count of how many times I've had to convince clients to upgrade even to IE7 because IE6 isn't compatible with some aspects of WordPress.

I've never had a reason to use Comic Sans in any particular project, but the way people talk about it you'd think it was a mass murderer. It's just a typefont, guys.

So it took them a year and a half to do what they did back in 1995. Well that's...really sad.

A few other comments have raised this point, but Big Data is basically the new Web 2.0. Aside from being a buzzword, as a term it's so nebulous that half of the articles about it don't really define what it is. When does "data" become "big data"?

The patent situation has become a circus. There's a company claiming a patent on video advertisements preceding video content, and they're suing every online media company in existence hoping for shakedowns.

I once jokingly suggested a patent about paying online, but lo and behold, someone has that too.

Thanks for sharing this! I've never understood how startups snub Y combinator because it "only" offers $17,000. Think long term!

Since the Twitter block was working just so well.

We picked a good time to start using AWS! Nothing but positive things so far.

There's been next to no news about how Don Mattrick was going to rejuvenate Zynga, either.

Who says revenge and culture can't go hand in hand?

Feedback is incredibly valuable. Why would anyone disregard it?

One of the most common theories floated around about why younger programmers are so "preferred" is that older programmers tend to get stuck doing things a certain way or not adapting to new languages or programming paradigms.

The big issue is that you see this with people in any profession, and of any age. People naturally stick with what's comfortable to them, even in their twenties. It could be that tech is such a rapidly changing field that this gets so much attention, but applying this to a certain age demographic in a single profession is only doing tech a disservice.

Churchill was right. Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
