Alas, they just cancelled this year's East Asia tour: https://www.wbur.org/artery/2020/01/30/bso-cancels-east-asia...

It's unfortunate that the author chose to only include male programmers in the post.

https://tuple.app/ is another new entrant to this space.

13 years on, I continue to reference this class as the gold standard in lab design & execution. It’s the one class I continue to tell stories about to this day.

Chegg | NYC / New York, NY | ONSITE We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Writing Tools team (10 engineers) in NYC. Join our small, accomplished team building software to help students become better writers. Chegg writing tools are a collection of websites used by over 30 million students. We make http://www.easybib.com & http://www.bibme.org to name a couple. We have spent the past year building a tool for students to upload their paper and get back automated writing style & grammar suggestions. We also automatically identify if a quotation came from a source that should be cited and walk the student through creating that citation. We accomplish this through a close collaboration with our team of Data Scientists to deploy online-learning models. Chegg is a fantastic place to work. We're small (~800 employees) and we're public ($CHGG). The business is booming, so it's an excellent time to join. Please drop me a line if you'd like to learn more: btucker@chegg.com (I'm Ben Tucker, Director of Engineering for Writing Tools)

It's because the article takes you through running your app in production environment locally on your machine. To do that with ssl you'd need to get that setup locally as well, so I think the author just wanted to avoid dealing with that.

Also, SketchUp. (http://www.sketchup.com/intl/en/developer/)

This + GitLab might prove to be a great alternative to GitHub Enterprise.

That was what I wanted to know, too. Ever since IAM launched, I've been wanting to authenticate ssh against it. Sadly, the docs all seem to specifically say EC2 instances running windows.

    16. Sep.  2014 - Notified the Drupal devs via security contact form  
    15. Okt.  2014 - Relase of Bugfix by Drupal core Developers

I know it's open source volunteers & all, but that seems like a rather slow reaction to such a critical vulnerability with a simple fix, doesn't it?

I find it a bit funny that you can't share your video on Facebook.

Bob Garfield (On the Media) interviewed Hunter Moore a few years ago: http://www.onthemedia.org/story/173718-revenge-porns-latest-...

And yet making threats using the bully pulpit that comes with having a popular internet personality is just fine.

I can't help but feel nervous every time the mouse moves to the top right of the screen, narrowly missing the "End Interview" button in the animation...

I'm sure there's the a confirmation dialog or something, but I'd be afraid of accidentally hanging up on the person the whole time.

If I remember correctly, in iOS6 when interacting with Siri while the phone was locked, Siri would respond to certain commands by telling you that you needed to enter your passcode to do that.

Ruby & Perl use /x to ignore whitespace & comments like this.

eg.

    /\d+ # some comment
     \w  # another comment
    /x

I'd highly suggest anyone who hasn't already, go back and read the Manning/Lamo chat logs: http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/07/manning-lamo-logs

This made me wonder about the concept of integrating detection for things like carbon monoxide into cellphones. Of course there's a patent on the concept: http://www.google.com/patents/US20080303678

But I don't know if this has ever actually been attempted.

I'm glad they (and most of us) are not in the business of making insulin pumps or other software where such bugs could have potentially lethal consequences.

Here around Boston, they've done tons of advertising on the trains & busses. That's how I had heard of it.

All these acquisitions by Yahoo is making it feel like 2005.

Honest question: Has anyone actually found a good use for their Pebble? I wore mine once the day after it arrived, felt totally ridiculous, and it hasn't left the drawer since.

The swap will cost between $60 & $80[1].

Hey, that's awesome! Was that around '06 or so? We came on board not too long after. Drop me a line sometime. ben@greenriver.com

      etc.

    * Design graphics and information visualizations
    * Contribute to existing codebases and designs
    * Communicate effectively with clients and developers
    * Manage implementation of visual and interaction design
    * Stay engaged with the latest technologies
    * Think about & share ideas for improving how we do things at Green River

Required Skills and Experience

    * Solid understanding of user interaction design to maximize usability on 
      a variety of devices
    * Experience producing semantic, responsive design, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

Now I want to see the same thing, but based on the length of the commit message instead.

I could be wrong, but I think the sentence is really meant to convey:

The project explores the circumstances we live in: a new and uncharted combination of digital labor markets, "crowdsourcing," "virtual economies," and digital reproduction.

(a colon instead of the first comma.)
