Think about it, science fiction is rapidly becoming fact as technology achieves what only writers could once dream. And you don't have to be a soothsayer, or a science-fiction author, to see that wearable devices will one day be an everyday reality for all of us.
We've all seen the nifty video that showcases the possibilities …
Happy New Year!
Four months ago, T he Lean Startup debuted at #2 on the New York Times bestseller list.

On Monday, I'm taking The Lean Startup across the pond to the UK to launch the first international edition .
A complete list of book tour stops for my journey is below. I hope …

Now back to HardCore MySQL business - foreign Keys. MySQL supported Foreign Keys for Innodb for many years, yet rudimentary support initially added in MySQL 3.23.44 have not been improved in new releases as much as I'd like. We still get cryptic error messages such as "ERROR 1025 ( HY000): Error on rename of ‘./test/child' to ‘./test/#sql2-496-40a5′ (errno: 152)" in many cases …

Happy New Year! Making new years' resolutions is a long standing tradition. Unfortunately, breaking those resolutions is also a tradition. I don't have scientific proof, but I'd guess that most resolutions that get broken are abandoned because they're difficult to keep, or even hard to start.
For example, let's say you've resolved to become fit. If you don't have a fitness regimen already, it can be pretty tough to adopt one. But things get a lot easier if …

Me too! And thus it was that I set up a Tumblr account awhile back, mostly for posting stupid pictures . But I figured, what with it being 2011 and all, that I'd maybe I'd also start writing a little bit more there . Or maybe not. We'll see.
If you're interested, follow me on Tumblr .
Oh, and Happy New Year!

…frontend to Ruby on Rails and that challenge was too exiting for me to resist. So I can now count myself amongst the lucky few in Podio's development team and employee no. 15 in the company. I look forward to learn a lot from new colleges, put a lot of hard work into the product and help make Podio realize its full potential as a platform built in Ruby/Python right here in Copenhagen.
Happy New Year!
Here's a pro-tip: your system has a hardware clock in addition to the 'software' clock your operating system is keeping. You need to set *it* to run in UTC as well, otherwise some services (mysql among them) can get dates wrong, and dates/times can get really squirrly if your server is rebooted. hwclock --systohc
If you are running NTP, lets update the clock and start the service back up: ntpdate us.pool.ntp.org service ntpd start
Happy New Year!
