    SPA's tend to come with build systems, but that is just a side effect of their complexity. You can have a front-end build system independent of SPA/MPA architecture. In fact, you s…

    Not a binary thing, no. But who gets to be in charge of that speech? Do you trust them? Do you trust who will follow them in power? Where I live, I'm vastly outnumbered by people w…

    Not allowing information to exist, regardless of intent or how it's perceived as "good", is an authoritarian act in and of itself. It will only polarize those that feed on it. It's…

    I think most of my concerns center around this being an impulsive stream of clearly stress based posts. I think a lot of really good conversation could have been raised, which I fe…

    I would also like to echo this question, always interested in what people listen to while working.

    While discussing the Node C binding architecture, I think it's also worth noting The Neon Project* which is extending that lower level binding system into the Rust ecosystem. I'm n…

    Hahah. Nothing to be sorry for, I was just curious. There are enough source systems out there, I wouldn't be surprised if they were a few I hadn't heard of.

    As I'm not familiar with those, I have to ask: did you mean CVS and SVN?

    PSA: If you are using a DisplayLink based device, this update will break your setup. They have a beta driver on their site that will re-enable clone mode, but not extended desktops…

    This is not a response to your post in general, however it is "Berners-Lee" not "Burners-Lee" as your own sources will confirm.

    I think they got that, but customers can be difficult and the impulse to launch them can be strong. Thank you for your helpfulness, regardless.

    That's odd criteria. Mind passing those resumes this way?

    Laying off employees due to revenue concerns has been something I've seen, but I've never seen an individuals salary cut. I would leave somewhere that did that in a hurry, if I had…

    I'd find the timing scarier if the beta for 9.3 hadn't been going for a while before this all came up, and we were already right around the number of releases they always do before…

    This is what I came to suggest as well. I would also say that Express is a good one as well if you're looking to learn Node. Not quite as clear as the annotated source for Backbone…

    Noted, but I'd argue that contributing to existing open source projects is better for the general populace than reinventing wheels.

    I'd consider Webkit pretty useful.

    Is there an argument that hibernate is harmful? I hadn't heard that one. It's certainly useful, but I think the comment you were replying to was thinking more along the lines of sa…

    The app looks awesome, and also served as my introduction to Hype Machine. How I haven't managed to hear of this service before is beyond me. Now I'm just sad I didn't know it exis…

    I had no idea such a genre existed, and I think you've just made my day. Thank you for this.

    In one of their public statements, they've indicated that the new app will be able to import/open Aperture/iPhoto libraries. Hopefully the implementation is fairly seamless.
