That's the first thing I disable every time I set up oh-my-zsh on a new box. I think it should not be a default behaviour and should only be enabled if needed.
This is from the paper. "I tried again, and it was a huge breakthrough: Mario jumped up to get all the coins, and then almost immediately jumped back down to continue the level! On his first try he beat 1-2 and then immediately jumped in
the pit at the beginning of 1-3 just as I was starting to
feel suuuuuper smart (Figure 7). On a scale of OMFG
to WTFLOL I was like whaaaaaaat?"
My desktop is my workbench. With the trash sitting right there in the corner I do my stuff and at the end I keep the artefacts I want and throw the rest away.
It might look messy but it actually keeps reminding me of the things I need to get done.
By W3C validator do you mean the Markup Validation Service or the Web Accessibility Initiative aka WAI? I think WAI validators were introduced to address the issue you raised in your experiment. Is this true?
Anyhow, I can't agree more, "being W3C valid means jack".
Part of me thinks if you made "starting contests" free for customers, you'd get more traction. On the other hand the other part of me thinks that you've already tried this approach, or at least thought about it. So, which part of me is right?
Also two tiny notes about your front page:
1. I, personally, get really pissed when I'm informed about fees of a service in any step of the process other than the first one. So, I'd suggest show the fees somewhere above the fold.
2. This is more of a UX thing. In the "How it works" box, make the titles clickable.
I love the idea. Simple, yet has a lot of potential. Will be start my own contest someday soon.
For a second I was really excited about this, until I realised I don't have an iPhone. Not saying as a startup you should shift your focus on other platforms at all, but are you guys working on an Android app at the moment?
I've been using VirtualBox for the last 15 months on a daily basis. I've used it on Windows XP, Windows 7, Ubuntu and recently on Mac hosts with Windows XP, Windows 7, and Ubuntu guests. I've never ran into any problems with it. The only thing that doesn't work properly is 3D Acceleration which I think has something to do with my system's graphics card probably.
Two of my friends however lost their guest machines (Windows and Ubuntu) on the Mac version. Hope it doesn't happen on my Mac.
In my opinion, VirtualBox is an amazing piece of software, and calling it "garbage" is harsh and unprofessional.
I added checkout command last night. I also prefer to jump on console to do my git commands, but it's really nice that you can use Sublime's quick menu to quickly see the diff or checkout changes you've done. Well done David.
Nice find, but I don't really think this is violating anything. It's against the HTTP Spec, sure, but you give it permissions to post stuff on your wall for you.
This reminds me of this guy I met a few months ago who was freaking out about the fact that he saw his facebook profile photo and some of his friends' photos on some website and he was all like 'facebook has sold my information to this website'. Took me a while to convince him what was going on. Please let's try not to make non tech savy people freak out by this kind of allegations.
So, what's the best solution here? To pay $39 and buy "Private Equity Secrets Revealed" eBook or to hire a seasoned lawyer? And then, how much are you going to end up paying the lawyer? Are the lawyers going to pull the same tricks on you as well?
Sometimes I wish I had access to these resources 15 years ago when I was just a little kid and was wondering what a function was and why we want to have them. Yup, I started with Fortran and spaghetti code ;)
