Let me get this straight. You have a piece of software which helps monetary transactions, and yet you don't charge.

They are a bit like "social network for dog owners" approach. There's this huge chicken and egg problem of bringing the advertisers and job hunters together to a job site and the first thing that comes to mind is to take a stab at a vertical. It rarely works.

Having an established relationship with the moderators and/or being an already respected member of the community helps a great deal in those scenarios. Obviously, that takes a lot of investment in time.

There are quite a lot of fitness communities on the web. Did you try advertising on any of them? http://reddit.com/r/fitness might be a good start

Some of the logos reproduced in this belong to very litigatious companies. I don't think this will live too long.

I remember a few London startups trying to tackle that. Their names are eluding me at the moment.

I reckon the reason they didn't get successful is due to challenges in monetization.

Everything in a job offer is open to negotiation. Sometimes I have to go back to my boss to extend my range if I like a candidate a lot. If the candidate flips after that, the failure is much more public than I would like.

Maybe there's a much less sinister reason for companies shying away from relocation. We had a few applicants that we were willing to offer relocation and all of them flipped at the last moment. They all said their significant others had a change of heart. I suspect the changes a relocation will bring, hits home really late. Once bitten twice shy; I am not considering people who are not in my geographical area anymore.

Bootstrap made a lot of ground by being associated with Twitter early on. There's now a huge community of plugin and theme developers for Bootstrap. Foundation does not have that sort of backing.

That you can lose that job all of a sudden.

you are technically right. It's the grunt bowerInstall.

bower manages your script tags in the html file. It also supports partial inclusion of libraries.

Freeview refers to a television service these days: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeview_(UK)

I would hazard a guess that it's because the intended audience is the node js crowd.

Maybe apart from games, most of this is irrelevant for browser side javascript.

Take up your clients' offer, who want to pay more. Cull the ones who don't want to. You'll end up with less clients but be much more profitable.

Most smart homes are actually "manage remotely" homes. I would really love to have a home that's actually smart. Few things that comes to my mind:

* Recognise the pattern the inhabitants are at home. Turn the heating/ AC on/off accordingly.

Smart lighting. Turn off lights automatically when I watch the movie channel. Don't go all bright when I wake up for a pee in the middle of the night. Learn the pattern of me waking up and turn the lights on accordingly.

Watch my fridge. Nag me when I stocks run low. Better yet, prepare me a shopping list.

Negative connotations aside, this is still a good idea. Master/slave terminology trips up at least some beginners. Masters laze all day and slaves do all the work. Not really a good analogy.

At least for the startup world, it's about prioritisation of concerns. Will that disaster implementation take me to my next(or first) round of funding? If yes, I'll happily go with it. After that, I can throw money at the problem.

Most recruiters don't care about the number; they only care that you signed the dotted line. Their downside is much, much bigger than their downside.

I don't think anybody is disputing that. But there was a time upper class meant rich, no? That's considered proto-capitalism by many.

Not the OP, but concentration of wealth in the hands of a class and concentration of capital in the hands of capitalists sound awfully similar.

Because the governments in Europe pay for health care and social security too. The less wheelchair bound 19 year olds, the better.

Speed bumps would be prohibitive for F1 too. Yet, many technologies perfected in F1 made their ways into every day cars.

This is a race car. The purpose of the race is not to be the fastest but to consume the least amount of petrol.

I see the monarchy as a technical debt from experimenting with government models. We ended up something similar to a presidency but also left withe a symbolic head of state.

Because cost of removing the technical debt is bigger than the cost of living with it, we just ignore it.

Bootstrap. Solely because it has a thriving community of theme, add-on and plugin developers.

Use a css framework. Anything would do.

Not sure about the US, but in the UK Sky/Virgin Media set top boxes are internet connected. I'd be very surprised if they didn't send viewing stats home.

There are about 20000 black cabs in London which make abrupt pull overs, ridiculous u-turns and blocking lanes 2 mins at a time. Luckily London drivers are familiar with how they look and can prepare ahead for erratic behaviour.

Imagine there are 100000 of them, effectively under camouflage.

The traffic chaos during their demonstration will be similar to the one we will experience everyday if uber grows unregulated.

Citroen the company was always underfunded and they could never invest in quality control.

I wonder how a hydraulic suspension would fare if produced by today's technology and quality standards. DS has a flying carpet ride feel to it and even the most upmarket cars of today can't reach that.
