Kids nowadays never use punctuation. I'm guessing the semicolons rule out C#.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

Back in my day we didn't have debug points. We used printf and we liked it.

I can see teaching code as a good way to introduce logic, but then it would just be a tool as opposed to a goal in itself.

The eminent Martin Fowler recently wrote about the importance of not being afraid to bin old solutions and implement brand new architecture. Should IT architects leave old solutions or start fresh? "Some men just want to watch the world burn."

"As the World Burns"? Has a nice ring to it.

Google's mobile operating system is still the dominant smartphone platform in the US, with a 52 percent share of the market, says research firm ComScore. "And when their battle droids are combined with yours, we shall have an army greater than any in the galaxy."

Globally, I assume Android is ahead by far. (remember numerous hardware manufacturers for Android compared to 1 hardware manufacturer for iOS )

For $25 a year, Google will keep a copy of any genome in the cloud. Think of it as a backup?
Also, "Gee, what's the worst that could happen?"

This is one thing I definitely prefer to keep open source

What's the best way to build an application that could do anything from control home appliances remotely to gather meteorological data from sensors to produce a weather forecast? Startups offering data ingestion platforms take much of the hard work out of developing for the Internet of Things. Step 1: Get a thing

Step 2: Call Mindfire - or not.

Researchers warn that web sites and apps communicating via WebRTC may have broader access to computer microphones and cameras than users realise. "You didn't hear it. You didn't see it. You won't say nothing to no one."

The CERN particle collider is 17 miles long. China just announced a supercollider that is supposed to be roughly 49 miles long. The United States' new particle collider is just under 12 inches long. Guys, guys, guys. Size doesn't matter (it's the energy of your particles)

Only someone with a small particle collider would say something like that.

Of the many Platform-as-a-Service innovations Heroku has contributed in its seven year existence, perhaps the most iconic is git push heroku master. Today we’re announcing a significant upgrade to Heroku’s Git implementation: Beta support for Git’s HTTP transport.
HTTP Git has some notable advantages over traditional SSH Git. Instead of relying on port 22 (often blocked by firewalls) HTTP Git runs on port 443, the same port used for secure web requests.
Git it?
