Definitely! Not something we could have done properly in 48 hours though :)
jcxplorer | 10 years ago | on: Show HN: Goad – AWS Lambda powered load testing tool
A test that would use 100 lambda functions in parallel from each of the 4 regions and run for 5 minutes would cost about 3 USD. That should achieve a concurrency level of 100,000. That would be the most expensive test possible at the moment. Smaller tests are basically free.

Goad was our entry in this year's Gopher Gala and was built in under 48 hours by a team of 4.

jcxplorer | 13 years ago | on: Ask HN: What would you like to see in a mobile ad network?
You can sign up on our website to be contacted when you can start using the iOS SDK: http://www.adtile.me
There's a Reservations button at the end of that page.
Number 3 is something we're working on really hard to match the app's content with ads without requiring too much effort from the developer when using our SDK.
Let us know on the Reservations form a little about your app and we'll get back to you!

Photopoll developer here, thanks for the kind words! :)
jcxplorer | 13 years ago | on: Show HN: Learned iOS, launched Photopoll
After trying to learn iOS, and OS X programming before that, I finally decided to make it my full time job. No more excuses for not having time, and no loss of focus either. Six months and many iterations later, Photopoll got approved yesterday and is finally on the app store. After years of Ruby development, I find Objective-C to be a very refreshing change.
jcxplorer | 14 years ago | on: Using pushState? Make sure your links are fine
Great suggestion, thanks! I just updated the blog post with. I'll be happy to link to your site/twitter at the end of the post if you give me that information :)
jcxplorer | 14 years ago | on: Using pushState? Make sure your links are fine
Author here. You are absolutely right! I just updated the blog post and used bcherry's solution. `rel="internal"` is indeed not standardized.

As someone who has been working on clustering map markers on top of Google Maps, I have to say that doing it with a quadtree algorithm is extremely simple.

Absolutely! I can't see your email on your profile (not enough karma I guess) but mine starts with joao@ and the rest you can guess from the service.

I really like your one sentence description. Do you mind if we use that?
jcxplorer | 14 years ago | on: TenFarms aims to tie your mobile apps together
If you look at our homepage (https://www.tenfarms.com/) you probably get a better idea of the service.

Lead developer and co-founder here as well with the same promise.
jcxplorer | 14 years ago | on: Utopia: USB power sockets on every wall
I recently stayed at a US hotel that had a couple of USB ports for charging devices. Since I don't like having to buy even more adapters just for travelling abroad, being able to charge all my devices at the same time was pretty handy. Are USB ports in hotels common in the US?

At the moment there isn't much value except for it looking nice. However, once I implement referrers properly, it's good to see where traffic is coming from. When it comes from a discussion you are still not too late to act.
Also, having an API call that returns the trending content of the site can be used on the site itself.

I like the stability of ActiveRecord. It was also to show that it's very easy to use the Ruby MongoDB driver just for some data. I have thought about changing it in the future to use only MongoDB, but not just yet.

It was developed by a team of 4. Happy to know you like it!
jcxplorer | 15 years ago | on: Splendid Bacon: Simple Project Management for Hackers, built in 48 hours
I've been up for about 24 hours now, and even though I was exhausted from all the coding, I'm feeling great now!

Glad you like it!
I'm sorry to hear that the site doesn't render properly on Firefox 3.0. We are using @font-face and the Pictos icon set for the icons, and only newer browsers support it.
Here's what it actually looks like: http://skitch.com/jcxplorer/d5hdh/splendid-bacon
