jisaacks··on GitHub's new text editor leaked on Twitter
Yeah, as the create of GitGutter for ST, my first thought was, cool if I switch to this I can write GitGutter in CoffeeScript. Then I thought, being Github, they would probably bake that in.
jisaacks··on How I hacked Github again
Maybe they offered? Maybe he can make more consulting.
jisaacks··on Building an open source Nest
Ahh Gotcha.
jisaacks··on Building an open source Nest
The nest cannot be always on because it is not provided with enough power. It has to use the power it has to charge an internal battery so they it can work at all. Always on would not have sufficient power.

> integrating tiny LED lights that could light up

So wait a minute, your eyes will start flashing when your glucose levels are spiking?

jisaacks··on Cards Stolen in Target Breach Flood Underground Markets
I also have Wells Fargo. Whenever I have lost a card in the past (It used to actually happen a lot - I usually left them in ATMs). They would do what you said, only I could go in to any WF location and get a temp card until my new one arrived in the mail. If I was not near any WF location and I explained the situation, they would ALWAYS overnight it for free.

So what happens when the company exits before you are vested?
jisaacks··on I asked for a t-shirt, I got a job
The biggest takeaway is the last sentence: "... the key to finding happiness in my career isn’t just by doing what I love, but by also being part of a team that openly appreciates everyone’s achievements and gives people the freedom to thrive in their passions."
jisaacks··on SublimeGit: Full-featured Git integration for Sublime Text
If you are using ST3 you can use non blocking mode and GitGutter will run in a seperate thread.

EDIT: Here is the section on the read me about it: https://github.com/jisaacks/GitGutter#non-blocking-mode

jisaacks··on Eloquent JavaScript, Second Edition
My favorite quote from the Good Parts: "if you want to find out more about the bad parts and how to use them badly, simply consult any other JavaScript book"
jisaacks··on Marching Ants Along an SVG Path
I used this effect in a project that had hi res data and low res data, I graphed the low res data as marching ants to show the path while the hi res data loads and eventually would replace the marching ants line.
jisaacks··on Jony Ive is Not a Graphic Designer
Things I miss from Android after switching to iOS:

* The keyboard (mainly showing the proper case) * An exposed file system * The ability to set default applications (like default browser)

jisaacks··on What Major World Cities Look Like at Night, Minus the Light Pollution
I grew up in Tucson, I do remember amazing stars at night. I also remember seeing an observatory on Mount Lemmon. Never made that connection tho.
jisaacks··on Show HN: My first node.js app
I added a comment explaining.
jisaacks··on Show HN: My first node.js app
I added the information you requested in a comment.
jisaacks··on Show HN: My first node.js app
What it does:

It is called "Orgazers" which is a combination of the words "Stargazers" and "Organizations"

It will look at all the stargazers of a repo, and find and list their organizations they belong to.

I got the idea when I received an achievement for having a repo followed my a member of the Github team. I wondered what other team members are following one of my projects. There really isn't any other way to find that info that I know of.

Is it useful? Not really but I though it was interesting.

Sorry for not adding the details in the title. I am terrible at getting people to click on my submissions so I was experimenting different title ideas.

jisaacks··on Vim Git Gutter
Ugh, someone submitted the original Sublime version to hackers news 2 months go http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5027308 and it got no love.

It just makes sense that someone would port it and become the #1 story.

jisaacks··on Vim Git Gutter
In the Sublime version, one of the things I did to avoid that is it doesn't call `git diff` if it has been less then 5 seconds since the last `git diff`.
jisaacks··on Vim Git Gutter
The Sublime version does.

aka the original :)
jisaacks··on SublimeText2 plugin - See added, edited or deleted lines since last Git commit
I am the author, I am glad you guys like it as much as I do. I came here to submit it, but Balto beat me to the punch! :)
jisaacks··on Fizzbuzz, Interviews, And Overthinking
The Ruby example that you recommending hiring because of, is overkill. Here is a better Ruby example:

    (1..100).each do |i|
      o = ""
      o.concat("Fizz") if i % 3 == 0  
      o.concat("Buzz") if i % 5 == 0  
      o.concat("Bazz") if i % 7 == 0  
      o.concat(i.to_s) if o.empty?  
      puts o
    end
