How do you know if you've mastered the hammer?

Thanks for you interest. I'm the author, let me know if you have any questions / comments

This must be a joke, HN auto [dead]s all my submissions now. Even deaded an article from my blog that got 11 upvotes before it was deaded

honestly this looks like a little advice on how to format your resumé / look for a job online. I saw nothing about acing the interview or how to write a really killer cover letter. I wrote a post about how to get a programming interview a few months back, I feel it provides more detail than your article

cool site, I look forward to your emacs tips.

I have been doing a "Learn Emacs" series on my blog for a while now. http://rawsyntax.com/tagged/emacs and I have a lot more post ideas in the works.

like any language feature it can be abused, however I find I like it

what' he's referring to, in my experience is the fact that microsoft has been trumpeting IE and HTML5 for some time (particularly on windows 7 phone). And that except for the hd7s and samsung focus, windows 7 phones are stuck with ie 7 mobile, which has no HTML5 support. From what I can tell other windows 7 phones cannot run the 7.5 "mango" release, which actually includes an HTML5 capable IE browser.

A few weeks ago I had an article dead'ed after getting 10 upvotes. And now all my submissions are marked dead seemingly permanently. So what am I todo except stop contributing to HN

Thanks for the info, after hearing people praise wordpress as the holy grail of blogging, I found it to be very very slow. Hopefully this plugin will help

I'm not sure, but my submissions are being marked as dead automatically now.. So I guess HN thinks I'm a spammer. What's interested is one submission that got 10 upvotes before getting dead'ed

careful submitting to HN. My submissions are now all marked dead automatically for the past 2 weeks... Even one of my blog submissions got 10 upvotes before being marked dead.. No idea why this is happening / how I can stop it.

From what I read at the time, (january 2011) sandforce based SSDs got much better performance on mac systems. I think this was to do with OSX's lack of support for TRIM.

On the other hand, right after I upgraded my SSD, I went to ruby 1.9.2 and rails 3, which are much slower due in part to a bug that makes requiring files take forever.

I back up with time machine too. I used it once when I had to send my macbook pro in for maintenance. I just hooked up my timemachine drive to my wife's macbook pro, and it worked great.

I tend to use heroku's free plan for testing out ideas. I wrote a post detailing how here: http://rawsyntax.com/post/8737142015/host-your-side-project-...

ruboto code on github https://github.com/ruboto

don't sweat it, thanks for the hour long screencast on backbone.. that must've taken some time to put together

I take a similar approach. Fork any git-based gems to my account on github, and specify an exact version of each gem I use in my Gemfile, like

gem 'rails', '3.0.7' # for example

And also version the Gemfile.lock file. That way my environment is locked down until I decide to upgrade.

This looks awesome. As somebody who has considered getting into iOS programming, but hasn't taken the dive yet (more focused on ruby based websites / mobile websites right now), thanks for making it open source.

This is cool just for fun, but practically there are sites like http://ajaxload.info/ that generate spinners for you, if you don't know how to do it yourself

This is a nice to have feature.

Currently I do this with http://hellofax.com

They have a web based pdf editor / signature tool

From the Full Article:

The move suggests that the standard could be coming in the future, but since the position is still listed, it seems unlikely that we'll see DisplayPort included with the next iPhone / iPad at this point.

So apple may be adding displayport to iOS devices... some day

"pretend the next guy is a psycho path with a baseball bat who knows where you live"

That'll helps to motivate you to write good documentation. And interestingly, many times it may be you referring to your old documentation.

There's a parallel here with programming, writing good comments, documentation, and unit tests.

Nice post

Generally, I use a different password for every site (using 1passwords generate feature). That helps guard against any site storing in plaintext

I went through http://news.ycombinator.com/leaders and tried to find twitter usernames for each user.

Let me know any additions / corrections. Thanks

sounds like another hydra ( https://github.com/ngauthier/hydra ). It distributes your tests across processor cores, and optionally remote workers (other machines)

Why is Buffet better? (I'm genuinely interested)

heroku is working fine for me now, got 2 projects hosted on it

Windows is not known for making good browser engines.

I think it's ok. Most of my blog posts get 3 up votes or so, but my post on side projects got 130 http://rawsyntax.com/post/5982784556/importance-of-side-proj...

But then again, I write blog posts I feel this crowd would be interested in

they had private "realm" servers for diablo 2 too. I remember playing ones that ran mods
