Just came here to say big thanks to you and everyone else at Khan Academy for the tremendous work you're all doing. As a working parent who has now been thrust into the role of teacher, it's been incredibly helpful. Thank you!

Apologies, that was a mistake on my part when I submitted.

Hi, what did you do for a career change if it's okay to ask?

I would love to work for an outfit like Pivotal. Unfortunately I live in Maine and I know they don't do remote. :( I'm feeling seriously burnt out at my current position as the culture seems to be predominantly "throw something against the wall." There seems to be little thought towards maintainability, testing, etc. so feels like I'm pushing a rock up the hill continually trying to provide suggestions in PRs, etc.

If anyone knows of any well run consulting outfits that work with remote workers, practice pairing, TDD, and just all around "giving a shit" I'd welcome pointers.

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this! The only thing I had found was stuff like SportsXML, etc. but it took me weeks to just get a demo data dump for a single game and the pricing was way too much to bite off.

Hi, do you have a link to these feeds by any chance? Was hoping for something like this for a POC. Thanks!

Perhaps Disconnect search might work with this. Then both Omniref and Google can mind their own business.

Great work! I tried the workout for the first time after a run this afternoon... it kicked my butt! As I was following along on the ipad I was thinking a simple app would be perfect for this. Love the implementation and visuals!

I worked with a talented C++ programmer who had flown airplanes in the Pacific Theatre in WWII. I don't think he necessarily needed the money as much as just enjoyed the job but it goes to show that you can still write code when you're older. We always enjoyed taking him out to lunch on Veteran's day too!

Hubot for Business. Aimed at users who rely on a variety of services such as analytics, business intelligence, CRM, e-commerce, and more. It's a virtual assistant/gopher that stands ready to do your bidding.

Anyone have recommendations/guidelines on checking your posture and setup? I had a friend who worked at Apple and said they had people who could come by and review your desk setup for proper posture, etc. I wish there was an equivalent for people working out of their home office.

What did you use for wrist supports? If you can share any specific products it would be greatly appreciated.
