How will he "prosper"? You mean he will have a "job" because he's preventing deception.

"If a company can make money by deceiving or manipulating people, someone is going to create such a company, and it will prosper (unless the law regulates it). And if it prospers, companies that do not deceive or manipulate people may well be at a competitive disadvantage."

EDIT: I was just quoting the article for discussion purposes. There's no reason to down vote.

Yea, seems to be going in the opposite direction. Pop culture like tv shows Big Bang Theory and Silicon Valley are showing that it's actually cool to be geeky or into tech and startups.

I went from a Macbook Pro 15" (pre-retina) to a 2015 Macbook Pro 13" Retina (with max resolution: 1680x1050), and I haven't been hindered at all.

I code on it daily. I did get some upgrades like the 16GB RAM.

At first I thought it might be by turning the email into an image, but when I scrolled down and saw the encryption part I realized they probably do some sort of token validation with their server to decide whether to decrypt the message.

The problem is that Apple doesn't provide access to lower level APIs that would allow other browser engines to compete on performance and increased functionality. They can only compete on UI. This lack of competition is holding back the potential of the mobile web.

This lawyer will take care of it on your behalf and will only take a cut if they are successful: http://justtelljulie.com

Zero-rating (also called toll-free data or sponsored data) is the practice of mobile network operators (MNO) and mobile virtual network operators (MVNO) to not charge end customers for a well defined volume of data by specific applications or internet services via the MNO's mobile network in limited or metered data plans and tariffs.[1] it allows customers to use data services like video streaming, which otherwise might result in significant charges depending on their data plans and volume caps. This has especially become an option to market 4G networks, but has also been used in the past for SMS or other content services.

Currently seeking web development gigs in SF, with the ability to work offsite/remote for months at time.

I have a range of skills and evolving interests that center around developing compelling products that leverage new technology.

I've been creating and designing websites for 15 years. Most recently, since the release of the iPhone, I have been focusing on mobile: Initially, as an iPhone (iOS) developer and then returning to web, particularly mobile web design. Over the last three years, I've created various interactive iPad and desktop web apps for clients at a healthcare agency. On the side, I've started several companies in the web and mobile space (see Vendee and SeniorServe) doing the entire design and full-stack web development with mobile apps. Though, I haven't had long-term success with my side projects, understanding what makes a business successful is a skill I try to continue to develop. As far as design skills, I have worked in UI/UX in industry, and I have a Masters in Computer Science with a focus on the relationship known as Human-Computer Interaction. Rather than simply a software engineer, I consider myself a well-rounded developer with many skills to bring to the table, and I'd like to find an organization that leverages this desire and broad skill set.

Recruiters: I'm interested in creative companies that investigate and implement solutions to complex problems. Some of my areas of interest include wearables/fashion, travel, fitness/wellness, mobile, augmented reality, and dog friendly work places. Particularly interested in offsite/remote positions.

Same here. This hits close to home for me--literally, my girlfriend lives right there, she broke her elbow on a bike, and we go to that bar sometimes. We could of very easily been in that same situation. I'm a developer and happy to help.

My girlfriend lives right there. We go to that bar sometimes. She recently broke her elbow on a bike accident. We would of called 911 in the same situation. This could of easily been me and her. Wow. What can I do!?

This also gives pedestrians a fun alternative to jay walking.

I can relate to this as a developer. At my agency, the technical team is often brought in later-on in designing a solution, and I find myself not having any base understanding of the project--like why and for who is this being developed. As a result, it's hard to have motivation to work on a project when you lack the why's of what you're doing.

As are <= 40 hour work weeks.

Great first step. And pretty soon we'll have quality of care reviews--from patient questionnaires thanks to ACA/Obama Care.

Great lecture. I'm curious to know what companies/organizations actually allow this kind of flexibility--outside of the entertainment industry.

I like the idea. Though the $6.99/package is more than I'm wiling to spend. I order most of my stuff online and packages delivered to my apartment during the day will be stolen. I currently have to get all my packages delivered to work, but for some people that may not be an option.

I like the premise. But as a developer who recently walked out Friday night from doing any more work, another developer was there to pick up my work. We have to change developers (and employers) mindset in order to make a change in the industry. Aside, the developer was upset at me for walking out--not the employer.

This is great. If service providers lose business because of cooperation with the NSA, then it's just a matter of time until those service providers have a compelling reason (Capitalism) that Congress, etc. can get behind.

Would definitely buy this as an audio book, but I doubt I'll set aside the time to read it as a book :/

Live free. Don't let "them" scare you into acting out of fear.

In my experience, any interface that does not directly conform to the underlying technology is going to increase the amount of work (aka complexity). And typically, the reason why one interface is simpler than the other is because instead of conforming to the environment/language, the engineer had to code another way to do it.

You could try to get published or get similar field-specific attention by making some advancement in the field.

First of all, this is great. I'll definitely be using it on a regular basis for public transit and 'taxi' rides. Second, I love that you have bike directions too. BUT, the bike directions seem to be car directions when you hit the link to google maps. Please explain...

The player decrypts the file before it is played and then encrypts again when it is finished, so if you grab the file while it is being used by the player then it will be decrypted.

Seems pretty simple to me. Put one of those info banners at the top of everyone's Facebook feed (like they did to say "I voted" during the election) that gives you the option of either opting-in to ads (and ads to friends) or paying a fee to use Facebook.
