I pay for the Launch Ticker (https://www.launchticker.com/). No linkbait or hyperbole, just key facts about the latest tech stories.

More likely the common phrase, "you don't know jack shit".

the game was a play on that phrase, and my book title is a play on both. :)

Guess it's a case of not being ready to execute on the idea yet? If so, not sharing until you're ready to start executing would be your best option.

Why does the perspective of the drawing grid appear to get wider as it gets further away?

edit, to answer my own question: it doesn't get wider, it just doesn't shrink into the distance either. It still feels odd not having perspective.

It's rendered using an isometric projection[1].

For whatever e-petitions might be worth, here exists a "Teach our kids to code" petition http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/15081, started by Emma Mulqueeny (http://mulqueeny.wordpress.com/2011/09/15/teach-our-kids-to-...)

Sorry, what do you mean by Twitter search feed?

A search for the product's name or handle on Twitter to detect a surge of activity post-deploy.

(Most surges are negative, eg. "Man, <YourService> is down AGAIN, this sucks.")

I assume watch a feed on Twitter for a search about your company or product. If people on Twitter start complaining in mass about your latest push it's probably a good sign that you need to roll back.

Ok, this is what I also assumed - although I would never rely upon this as part of my continuous deployment process, I guess it does little harm to still monitor and be aware of such things...

At Flickr, I always have our system graphs in one tab and our help forum in another tab.

As a developer using Visual Studio in my day job for the past six years, I simply cannot get a hold of Eclipse. I have tried repeatedly, and failed because it is so very clunky, slow, and unintuitive. Have recently been playing with IntelliJ, and think I will stick with this for the time being.

However, of course, Visual Studio with Resharper has just spoilt me rotten, can't expect that environment from every IDE.

My experience was otherwise.

of which bit?
