No problem.

It uses mouse movement.

It's reasonable to assume I'm hurting my productivity but like I said I'm doing the whole nights and weekends thing, a couple extra hours of less productive work is better than none.

As far as grogginess/tiredness after you wake up goes that's related to where in your sleep cycle you wake up. I use one of the numerous iPhone/Android apps that use the accelerator to detect and wake you up at the end of a sleep phase.

I'll have to admit that I try to get away with as little sleep as possible. It's not that I'm trying to be a hero or show that I'm macho, I'm doing the whole nights and weekends thing to work on my product because I'm driven to make it successful and it feels absurd to trade off progress for sleep.

I'm well aware of the potential consequences health and otherwise but I see it as a short term cost for a long term benefit.

Very easily considering that ISPs are owned by the government and the Singapore population is < 6mm.

My main issue is that I want to avoid needing to customize my resume to the company every time. I already spend a bunch of time writing cover letters to companies, and most of the time you never even hear back. (I'm applying to internships)

Thanks, i will definitely remove the "common" skills.

when it rains, it pours.

Thanks for posting this, I'm going do try writing a NLP bot that identifies some "dark patterns"

People seem to think there is only one answer to this question but companies need to figure out what is best for them depending on their employees, culture etc. Right now I think the core problem of remote work is verifying that people are in fact working efficiently. Also people really need to use better metrics to make judgments; parking lot 'emptiness' or even VPN access logs do not hold meaning if projects are on time, and the deadlines are not lax.

I have the note and i would have to agree with the article. I don't think "scribble some notes on a screenshot" is supposed to be a typical use case, it is just one that will demonstrate the benefit of a stylus quickly.Having used the stylus for a while I definitely prefer it and tend to miss it on other devices.

The stylus does have some lag to it and you have to get used to not seeing your writing show up immediately. When you see your writing hasn't showed up yet you tend to stop or slow down which isn't necessary, just keep writing and trust it will show up. I know that sounds terrible but it's really not.

Don't bite the hand that feeds; I predict a drop in enrollment of classes that use these textbooks...

Its not as simple as that. No company would let you pay for your own flights because it reflect badly on them and how they treat their talent, at the same time they most definitely will be reluctant to fly you from abroad to interview. Hiring is not so cut and dry, although you may have the best technical abilities they may reject you simply because of bad cultural fit.

devbootcamp is clearly not an option for you, i suggest you take spoom's advice and open source a project you can be proud of in Rails. Then maybe attend some conferences in the US, and try and network to seek jobs. I believe you can get a B1 visa to attend conferences and you should be legally allowed to interview, although IANAL so double check.

1. You probably won't get a visa to do devbootcamp (Since its educational it would require an F visa (devbootcamp can't help you). 2. With a BSc and and MSc in CS devbootcamp is not going to be of any use for you, get a book and a mentor and learn Rails yourself. 3. Companies can petition for your H1 for a future date no worries as long as the cap has not been exhausted, it is a regular occurrence. The problem will most certainly be how companies can accurately judge your abilities remotely. (People have cheated often on technical video conference interviews before)

There's also cloudno.de

Are there any easy cloud platforms or whatever that support easy deployment for Vert.x?

This is one way of looking at it, a dissenting view: Because Google is so integrated gmail,google docs, etc -> You are sitting in a restaurant that serves Italian and Mexican food, across the street is another Italian restaurant, where would you go to eat?

Quite a few unshipped. I think there ought to be a difference between unfinished and unshipped. My projects are unshipped by which i mean I finished them but couldn't commit the time to market/sell them.

Eventually you learn: If you build it they will come; If you are lucky.

This would be neat if it was secure, unfortunately anyone can look up your server from source and message it anything they please.

I feel like this is not so hard to do with NodeJS and Web sockets.

Small NodeJS app that serves the client connection webpage and acts as a proxy. Set the proxy locally, When you get requests instead of fetching them ask the socket for the data and headers.

On the client just do an XMLHttpRequest for whatever and shove it back down the web socket to the proxy server. Done, Right? I'll do a little experiment when i have time...

IANAL but the issue simplified -> You own IP if:

(Developed while not employed) || (Developed in (California||Delaware||Illinois||Minnesota||North Carolina||Washington) && Developed on your own time using your own hardware) || (Your employment agreement/contract specifically assigns you IP rights)

This thread is important, i hope it gets more attention.

Ability to fund start-ups is a start, you might also need a parallel start-up type visa so foreign entrepreneurs can create jobs and great products.

Just for the record for me a good investor visa:

-Tie the visa to the start up, if it fails they have to leave, cant work for other companies. As a corollary they cant take a job that previously existed, they can only add jobs.

-Reduce or remove current capital requirements 500,000-1m is way overkill.

-Keep the 'must create n jobs' requirement, but give more time to create the n jobs. Forcing start ups to hire 5/10 people in one year is not cool.

Very nice they must be good ideas. I'm still at the point where i get mad and frustrated, unfortunately. I often daydream about how nice it would be to have an army of developers under my control.

Wow, 1200 is quite impressive even if only 1/30 are start up related. Are these 'cured' to some degree, or just anything you've ever thought might have some potential?

Hmmm looks like evernote is a winner.

I'm not revealing till much later in the process but ill tell you this, so far it looks like MongoDB + geospatial indexing = win! you might find it useful as well.

Oh right I forgot this part:

I'm attempting to build a Geo-location based app right now from my list.

I clean out ideas at the start of every month, dumped a couple on the first.

List is 7 ideas right now.

I really cant tell if this is sarcasm. It's stolen from the amazon logo

Overall very nice, there is some weird page folding going on when you act weird but probably just some small quirks.

On a side note, please make your own arrow on the corner of that front page of the book. I think almost everybody knows where that's from...
