Just one of many reasons that Scala is such an attractive option for Java developers:

// There is only one object DatabaseConnectionConnor {}

I couldn't agree more. I constantly see this claim made about Visual Studio. I find it to be in the way most of the time. It does sound like most of the features that I want are in Resharper; I'll have to try it out.

I have worked with numerous 2 screen setups, a single 29 inch U2913WM plus laptop screen setup and my current 40 inch 4k tv setup.

Honestly, I really like the 4k tv the most when I have a window manager that can make good use of that much area. Without the window management the extra space becomes a hindrance.

The larger screen that you are looking at is bigger than the 29 inch that I used to work with. That said, I did really like working with the larger single screen over 2. I felt more focused on what I was looking at and the it was still manageable with simple left and right pane controls.

All that said I wouldn't consider either of these as big of a jump as SSDs. I find the additional screen space is a nice to have feature but a SSD eliminates the pauses in my workflow. To me being able to hammer out a bit of code quickly without interruption is worth way more than the extra screen space.

It looks like there was a Show HN a few weeks ago for it.

It is about quantity. If you have a fair number of meetings with people that also have their fair share it can become difficult.

Also, when one person's schedule changes it can have a cascading effect.

In the end, all of this scheduling work get in the way of doing real work. I for one welcome anything that makes scheduling trivial.

The one thing that usually catches my eye is when a company offers these things 100% vested. I know that I'm dealing with people that understand what I want.

I can see how Web Start can be a security hole. There are a few, very few, times where being able to run code on the client is not only useful but the best way to solve a problem. Is there an easier way to distribute a Java app than Web Start?

They already had a supply from Huron before. They disconnected from it about a year ago. Now they are hooked back up to Huron but much of the damage has already been done.

I agree that an idea needs to be big enough to be viable but 1M+ is arbitrary. If overall margins are very thin it may take a huge customer base to support a business.

It also depends on the amount of operating income required. One guy in his basement should be trying to solve a simpler problem than a well funded, VC backed startup.

It is true that this can apply to Linux as well. There are plenty of distros available that package as little as possible or provide choice during initial installation.

That is where I know that Linux wins over everything else. A huge number of applications, where there is always at least 1 good alternative. Microsoft and Apple can't compete on choice.

I like the idea but my biggest problem isn't ingredients, it's eating out. Having this available on my phone when looking for a place to eat would be a real time saver.

I was thinking about getting a new bike, this might be the first accessory that I buy for it. I like the simplistic yet versatile design. Something that I can actually use and looks nice.

Giving visitors a vote button will shake your faith in the internet. Giving unregistered visitors a text field that doesn't require approval before being listed, that's just downright dangerous! :P

I was looking for the same thing. I did notice the that all of the templates at this time are free. It looks like they may be charging for advanced workflows.

It's a nice start although it is hard to tell without signing up. There needs to be more available prior to committing.

Not sure where your TOS came from but there seems to be a lot of focus on free trial that moves to a subscription after 30 days. This is a valid choice for a business model but it seems like it will limit your growth.

From a technical standpoint it looks like some of the routes for authenticated users are available to unauthentic folks like me. Also, ssl is a requirement even for early stage projects, pick one up asap.

All that said, you o have a nice bootstrap based layout that looks nice which is more than many projects have.

Lastly, being from Grand Rapids I do like the 'Made in the Mitten – By geeks, for geeks.' slogan.
