hmm, you've reaffirmed my suspicions. The image suggestions for a google search of Twicsy was just adult material.

The TechCrunch article in 2009 criticised the website for being creepy http://techcrunch.com/2009/06/19/twicsy-is-a-killer-and-kind...

"As you might imagine, this service pulls up a lot of slightly personal pics, such as couples being all cutesy together. Since you don’t know any of them, it’s slightly creepy. But hey, if they don’t want those seen, they shouldn’t be sharing them over Twitter in the first place."

"Fork me on GitHub" Okay, where's the code?

The NodeOS GitHub organisation has a handful of repos. https://github.com/NodeOS

With one month to go in the last year of my computer science degree I was diagnosed with ADD.

The psychiatrist gave me some stunning advice: Ritalin or medication will not do your work for you. In my last month of university I was enabled with the ability to start working on projects well before the 48-hour cram period that I had come to know.

I had spent most of my schooling as a child to be made out as an idiot. As I result I'm now awfully quick to recognise when someone is not giving me their respect.

ADD is supposed to be picked up through your younger years. However when I grew up, it was the naughty children that had ADD/ADHD... they were the ones that caught their teachers attention.

Someone like me would never be correctly diagnosed, I has happy internalizing whatever it was that I was thinking about.

I most definitely agree. However I don't know how they would go about integrating the IDE while maintaining the healthy git workflow that many have come to love.

the TLDR is worthy of a self-facepalm..

I would of thought that the regression of Microsoft is inferior to the diversity of people using Linux daily. Another benefit to a rolling release cycle I suppose

oh, really? Okay...

There are many projects that the wider web community want to fund but are not able to.

Example: There's a demand for the adobe creative suites on Linux, but this wont be happening any time soon.

Adobe wont create a kickstarter campaign as they just wont.

Instead, people should be able to make their deposits to a third party that will release the payments when conditions are met.

Example: groups of people submit their demands and each person submits their micro payment. The conditions on the payment being released to the company of concern must be measurable... otherwise the intended reciepient will recieve their cash payments prematurely.

This would mean that you're acting as an Escrow... something I've only just learnt about.

ahhh ffs, I drafted out my own vision of this concept just yesterday. Nice work none the less :)

Kim dotcom hasn't proposed investing. He has shown interest in being the biggest customer. The risk of investing in the cable is huge, there isn't a datacenter in NZ that can utilize the proposed bandwidth increase. This is essentially a chicken-or-the-egg situation where someone other than dotcom will be bearing the risk.

Snap apparently don't charge for local traffic. I know a couple guys that work there

damn, you beat me to it.

"Visas."

I live on a small island in a small city and I wont be short of work for the next 20 years.

Developers/programmers are hard to find. Finding good ones that pass the interview process are even harder.

I found the John Campbell interview the hardest to watch. after most of his interview he hits him with "...are you a very a naughty man?"

I'm now really looking forward to work finishing for the day. The first thing I did was email all the developers at work and challenge them with a race to the finish :p ....I'm a grad halfway through my year of QA.

this is true... Although the cult of mac article didn't help by saying the screw would lock you out forever.

Without giving it much thought, i assumed that an asymmetric screw implied that it could only be turned one way. Which would lead me to wonder how many other people were deceived by the title.

Funny, after reading i thought this too, so did some google'n... how do we know google isn't in on this too? <.<

so... "The Social Engineer", the sequel to "The Social network"?
