This is one of the biggest reasons I don't like people. Perhaps the biggest.

Video games used to have a final boss. You could finish the game. Nowadays, with updates that can be delivered at any time, some games will never end. Is that how the video game of entrepreneurship will be, endless?

Good to hear from you again Spencer. Even though I'm not an entrepreneur I always find your posts valuable.

"In the GetById case, there's both persistence and mapping taking place (because you should NEVER expose your domain/data model as your API wire protocol),"

Why not? Why map to a new class if the fields are exactly the same?

If you don't need to support IE11, take a look at the picture element. It allows you to set different images for different screen sizes or media queries.

Paul Pierce was drafted in 1998, not 1996.

You should do both, post the audio and the transcription, like NPR.

Re: Texty: Texts From Google Chrome Via My Android Phone

chrisofspades — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 20:48:14 -0000

Oh I know, which is why I think it has potential. Texting from the browser is a big reason why I like Google Voice, so adding similar functionality to my phone's native number is great. I still use that number a lot to text.

chrisofspades — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 11:38:44 -0000

Being able to text from the browser is why I love Google Voice, so Texty sounds like a home run to me.

Re: Welcome to the New Think Vitamin

chrisofspades — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 12:57:57 -0000

I may be in the minority here, but including tweets/retweets/favorites, delicious links, and other external content as "posts" is extremely distracting on both the home page and in the RSS feed. I became a Think Vitamin reader for its thoughtful, in depth articles, and now all I get is a bunch of noise. Short form content certainly has its place, but I've never been a fan of mixing it with longer posts.

Also, I think there is a bug with the number of comments. In one place it says "4 comments", but below it says "Showing 19 comments".

Re: Are Early Adopters Leading Move from Firefox to Google Chrome?

I switched to chrome after they added extensions. firefox was just slowing things down too much.

the song they are dancing to is actually "They Don't Care About Us", not "This Is It". the choreography and arrangement is taken from "This Is It" the movie.

Re: Facebook? Up 10%. Twitter? Up 16%. FriendFeed? Flat

chrisofspades — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 12:59:46 -0000

Scoble, the reason why 3rd-party developers haven't yet built a FriendFeed client is not because the API is "hard to use" (it's actually quite simple), but because FriendFeed's own interface is already the best client. people build twitter clients because twitter.com sucks.

you'd think they'd offer the ability to login with Facebook or Twitter too, rather than having to register a new account. do they ask for your facebook/twitter credentials in order to search those sites?
