Reading this while a recent re-org has made it feel like I am sitting in a market and working. At the very least, if they separated PMs and managers away from developers.

Do you use an SSL cert for your own servers? https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs/wiki/Enabling-HT...

This tool recently helped me troubleshoot a bug I was facing and unable to solve due to the lack of Safari's development tools. Here's a link for anyone interested: http://eapen.in/mitmproxy-for-troubleshooting/

This was the first alcohol that my mom let me have and I still cherish it and often have stock at home — although now I have the Costco version.

Enjoyed learning this and playing with it. What would you recommend storing this sort of data in? Not too keen on going with the traditional MySQL.

How do you prevent it from falling off? I am on a quest to find something that is comfortable (ideally around the ear) and won't slip out. I would also like something thing so I can put on a headband and cover my ears in cooler weather without crushing the bands into my skull.

I came to say that this changes everything since I thought the light came first. Still seemed relevant. (not trolling)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_there_be_light

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, and it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.

Yeah, if i can adjust it so it gets dark by 10pm rather than sunset, that would be pretty awesome.

Do you verify the backed up data is intact when you receive it and a giant magnet at the mail carrier didn't destroy data?

This coming from TechCrunch? I ended up turning on NBC (because the enemy of my enemy must be my friend).

My rule is to only set "Only Me" permissions for any app I add on Facebook. That way, I can deal with all the news links, socialcam nonsensical tracking and sleep (somewhat peacefully).

Getting back to the topic, I have seriously considered telling friends/family on facebook to change their permissions but don't want to embarass them into thinking that they should be embarassed about the videos they watch.

Zuck seems keen to the Wallstreet fellows on the edge with Facebook's unpredictability.

This is very helpful advice. I had considered publishing my DNA from 23andme after seeing others had posted their genetic data. I am really glad, I didn't and think its quite important that you consider others (including your siblings + kids) before publishing such data.

Update: Thanks po. I hadn't really considered the risk of submitting data to 23andme in the first place. Updated the title to reflect this as well.

OT: Despite knowing this, I am sure I would have tried the service anyway. However, after seeing the data, I haven't found it too helpful. Probably, because most of their data is based on older Europeans and I don't fall in that category.

San Jose, CA - Milo.com, part of eBay

Milo's goal is to list every product on every shelf in every store. We have a noble goal of trying to help shoppers find products in store. Surprisingly, the vast majority of people still do most of their shopping in stores and we help them shop wisely. How? We show you the different pricing options and the distances to stores so you can decide if it is cost- and time-effective to go shop at a local store or use other options. In my opinion, we complement eBay shopping pretty well.

I joined this team as a data engineer a few months back and really enjoy the work environment. We still retain the startup culture (read more on the website) and also get the benefits of the larger company (eBay), which includes technical expertise and operational support.

We are currently looking for data engineers (and quite a few other positions as well). I work on the data team and we get to do a variety of interesting and technically challenging projects. You get to learn how the different pieces of the puzzle fit together and interact with different teams. I have the joy of working with some really smart people. I can honestly say, I look forward to going to work every day after having worked from home for the past couple of years at my previous job.

But, I have to warn you, once you get a taste of Milo, you may not want to go anywhere else...

Oh... and we mainly use Python and we are going to Pycon as well. Check out the website for more: http://milo.com/jobs

PS. Feel free to shoot me an email if you have any questions.

Web developers may not be responsible but they are sensible enough to advocate against such an approach. I have also come across the same issue on my Android phone and even after installing their stupid app, I still get prompted to download it. I gave their app the minimum possible rating.

This is a case-insensitive regex search for strings with 3-4 letters in them.

Great way to advertise the website to one of your target groups. ;) But seriously, I am quite surprised by the number of visits the site gets.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. After my first sync with Yahoo! Address book years ago, I ended up getting Facebook suggestions to people I didn't really know but who were in my Yahoo! address book.

As a non-white person, I also registered a few weeks back after seeing the occasional posts on HN.

Use IE6 to continue to access Wikipedia. This is the first and last time, I recommend using IE6.

For a second, I thought I spotted a Dalek in there. http://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/5/33213654.df/0_71e64_c0b3a07...

Yay for LED.

But I am curious if Android still decides for me that I cannot take a picture if my battery is less than 10%. I sure hope not... I prefer making the decision myself.

I suspect the Cnet download wraps are only for Windows executables. This is the direct link to the Android APK file.

For anyone who wants to check out the app, it is available for download at: http://download.cnet.com/Tricorder-for-Android/3000-20432_4-...

As a ColdFusion developer looking for a job in the valley, I also faced all the negativity associated with the language. In fact, I ended up barely mentioning the language on my resume. If the language was renamed to something else and totally re-branded, it would probably gain more respect. Most people still think of the older versions when it was built in C. But since the conversion to Java, it has been able to benefit from a lot of the Java enhancements while still functioning as a duck-typed language.

Another advantage is that, it has a very short learning curve. But like with any tool, it can be used by amateurs to produce amateur looking code. Using a framework (eg. FW/1) encourages better structured code and OOP approaches.

You can meet most of your web needs with ColdFusion and some highly specialized items may be more complicated. But that is the case with just about any language. The only part where I havent found sufficient documentation or user experiences related to scaling applications. That is not to say, it hasn't been done.

Given the relatively high price of Adobe CF (compared to Ruby/PHP etc), it is not really an option that startups (in the Bay area) will consider. There are open-source CFML engines like Railo as the author notes, but unfortunately, it lacks publicity.

While they are at it, I am surprised Apple didn’t integrate LaunchBar/QuickSilver/Alfred functionality into Lion (and take those guys out). It would go really well with the full screen apps.
