I haven't ever read an article with more contempt for the reader.

that orange color clashes in some places, notably that blue section halfway down the index page

higher resolution images would be nice

otherwise, looks good. straight to the point, modern, nice work.

Changelogs as a Service, eh? The idea definitely has potential!

Somehow I've signed myself up for a bunch of newsletters from various companies whose services I don't even use that update me on new features they've implemented in addition to blogs from their employees. It's an interesting read from time to time so I haven't unsubscribed.

If you can provide a service which can guide other people through publishing the same type of useful/interesting/insightful information regardless of the size/scope/nature of their project/research/work/business/hobby...

This idea is actually really exciting the more I think about it. Keep at it!

But the landing page needs more information, yes.

I've seen a similar concept before: http://4chancode.org/

I like this one more though, the code looks more realistic.

Sorry to disappoint, thank you for reading though!

Sorbet is my codename for a soundcloud clone I'm working on, in super secret. I don't have anything to show for it, apart from the other projects listed in the post.

This was more of a cathartic, taking inventory or taking stock, semi-stream-of-consciousness-ohgodimdoingitagain

But yeah, the other projects which I detail are what I meant to showcase :x

specifictso | 10 years ago | on: The Silver Bullet Syndrome

This addressed all the uncertainty I've been ruminating on for a while now. Nice to finally get a down-to-earth, thought-provoking perspective on the morass that is software development from an experienced individual who doesn't have any ulterior motives.

A modern complement to the "No Silver Bullet" essay (http://faculty.salisbury.edu/~xswang/Research/Papers/SERelat...)

I must take time to reflect and ponder now.

Neat, but offering only minified JS is not in the spirit of open source imho
