What is a startup?

I want to ask a question, give my opinion, and complain about something. “What is a startup?” I’ve run into two schools of thought on what a startup is. The Webster’s Camp The fine folk at Webster’s use this definition “a fledgling business enterprise”. I would phrase it as “A business that is just starting”. […]

If you build it, they will find zip codes

I’ve written an app in Swift. Put simply, the app helps you find zip codes. Enter a city or landmark, pan and zoom your way across the globe, or center on your current location to see a zip code. If a friend has ever given you his credit card to use at a gas station, […]

The Ember Path

There was a recent blog post by Rob Conery about learning EmberJs by just flinging yourself at it. That was something that kind of resonated with me.

Checking into Swift

In the interest of learning Swift, I undertook one of the exercises catalogued on codekata.com—“Data Munging,” involving some simple file parsing. The first thing I learned?
