The app does allow manually switching of profiles, without NFC tags, but it wasn't clear until I installed the app.

For clarification, the recommendation was not for learning C and assembly, but rather to get a good feel for what is happening at a lower level ie. stack frames, stack pointers, etc.

A good book that goes over both C and assembly is "Hacking: The Art of Exploitation". The first 100 pages alone will give you a solid understanding of what is happening behind the code.

I just built a site for the CrossFit gym that I go to that allows members to track the results, flag various milestones, make easy comparison to previous workouts and comment on other people's results.

They initially loved it, but when they found out it couldn't be integrated into their Wordpress blog, they dismissed the completed project. So I guess the reason for its failure was lack of input.

The project didn't take that long to create and was made to be more of an advertising tool for my company.

Being an introvert, I find that there is way too much small talk than I am interested in. I really think that most of the interviews could be trimmed down to 15-20min.

Now only if there was a highlight reel of the interview...

I am not trying to defend Apple, but is it possible that the approval process was being slowed done by having to ensure that all the other intermediary translators were not using private APIs?

The sharp edge has been bothering me as well. As for the confusion with basecamp I can see where you are coming from. I was going to replace the screenshot with a walkthrough video soon; hopefully that will make things less similar.

Thanks for the comments.

- I will definitely put the "View Demo" confusion on my todo list.

- Never even though of video games. Are there leagues out there for that? (I don't play video games that often)

- I will take a look at your site. My faq's are pretty static right now, but that could definitely change.

Thanks again.

The jqplot library mentioned seems to do it.

I have always liked how Merb was structured. With Rails 3 is there any reason to use Merb for new projects?

I am not chasing a million dollar dream, but rather looking to the acquire skills that are marketable and satisfy the curiosity itch.

> Try both of them for a while. That is what I am doing now. I have an iTouch as well as a mac book so the only purchase that has to be made is the yearly fee.

What would be nice is a script that extracts the image urls from the stylesheet(s), creates the sprite image for the used images, then creates another css file with the required offsets for the classes.

I have been putting off spending some time creating a script like this, mostly because I am pretty sure there is already one out there that does it.

One thing that I find confusing is the dotted line that separates the question from the tags. At first (and second) glance it seems that the tags belong to the question below. To be honest I never realized I was mismatching the items until I saw the last question on the page.

Since searching for tags is what the site is all about make the search box much bigger and put in in the blue section. The size and contrast will attract the eye much better that it does now. Keep the size of the search button consistent with the textbox.

Also get rid of the buoy. I get...help, but for the amount of help it gives me it is annoying. Just type the help text in a smaller size above or below the search box.

Other than that (and the free icon, but that was already brought up) it looks pretty good on the first page at least. The search page really needs some better filtering of data.

Best of luck.

One thing that that I don't like about unit testing is it can give you false positives that everything is working correctly.

When you follow the red-green pattern and write the test, have it fail, then write the code to make it pass, I find that my brain is thinking the same when I write the test to when I write the code. So as a simple example if I write a test that says add(2,2).should == 5, it fails since there is no add() method. I then quickly write the add method to allow the test to pass and I am happy that I get a passing test even though the logic is incorrect. Obviously this is an over-simplification, but I have experienced situations that have some resemblance.

I can't say I always agree with the laziness argument. I can't even count the number of times it would take me only a few lines of code to get something done, but writing all the unit tests increases the amount of time to complete the task by a factor of 10. Other times the tests are easily saving me hours in a day. So it depends on exactly what they are testing and how they are doing so.

I am not saying I don't like them all the time, just sometimes :)

Where do you buy it from?
