Yup! I wasn't trying to start a flame war or anything, I actually noticed the Android/Windows Phone "inspiration" immediately as well - just saying that we've come full circle, and everyone's been doing it to each other since the beginning.

To be clear, Android completely copied iOS first. What we now call "basic" mobile UI patterns came straight from the first iPhone.

Opportunities come from anywhere and everywhere! You just need to look! Sorry that things didn't work out with us, but you can sleep well tonight knowing that your post may have gotten someone else a gig, because a few people have reached out regarding the position I mentioned to you. Good luck!

What kind of freelancing are you currently doing? I'm looking to hire either a web designer/frontend developer, PHP developer, or Rails developer on a freelance basis for my company with the potential to go full-time in the future. Ping me if you're interested.

Because the lower brackets represent a small portion of very wealthy people's income.

This will ultimately be a very personal question, but one of the most important factors is location: $75k/year buys you a much nicer lifestyle in most of the US, but not so much in its cities. In NYC, $75k/year will just start to buy you a comfortable life. Around $125k is where most people would start to feel…

fwiw, I'd like to mention that the skin is the most nutritious part of most (all?) produce. Lots of canned fruit, in particular, is skinless. So, there's a loss of nutrients there, but not simply because it's canned.

It's probably stored in a cookie. Clear your cookies (or delete the linkedin.com cookie).

You need it because your password WILL be stolen for some service at some point in your life. Depending on WHICH password this is, it has a varying impact on your life. If it's your e-mail password, you're screwed. With access to your e-mail account, the rest of your accounts are easy to access (think about how the…

I love this, and coincidentally am signing the lease on Monday for a new apartment that will serve as my living space and home office. Done, and done.

For some reason, flossing seems so daunting to me. I waste much more time every day doing other things, and flossing is so valuable and so easy, but I just can not bring myself to do it daily.. or weekly, for that matter.

LOL this!

The plane seat hack is nice when you're in a pinch, but the real "hack" is a bit more boring: Pick your seat when you book your flight.

At first I thought "I'm totally in for one, this is what I've always wanted/needed!"

12,800 song/70GB library here and it's smooth as butter on OSX 10.8. The Windows app must just suck.

You stated that much better than I did. I have heard from "experts" that most Americans are eating healthy, but obviously many people disagree with that. Personally, I've always eaten balanced meals, it's something my mother instilled in me since childhood. I have seen how others eat and it is no where near as…

I'm simply stating what I've read and heard from people who are actual experts in the field.

Ok good, because I read the notification of this comment and felt bad thinking that you thought I was serious (and in turn probably felt bad for me!). Both stone age products are delicious, though.

Fruity Pebbles are the same thing as Flinstones vitamins, right?

I've read multiple articles from a variety of respected/reliable sources over the years that say that multivitamins are not necessary, that the vitamin industry has painted this picture that we're not consuming the proper amount of vitamins, but actually most diets include all of the vitamins that our bodies require. …
