Hi. Author of the article/gist here. It was actually written in Spring of last year, I think. I've just updated it because, as people have said, many of the issues have been addres…

React is not "eating Angular's lunch". The only reason it seems that way is that it is impossible to have a conversation about Angular on the internet without a horde of React zeal…

My advice would be to compile your CoffeeScript to JS, then start from there. That's assuming that CoffeeScript still produces readable, idiomatic JavaScript...? As of TypeScript 1…

Luckily, nobody cares what you think.

As I said in the comment you were commenting on, there is a JVM and a Mono VM. The IDE is running as two processes, one on the JVM (running the IntelliJ shell) and one on, currentl…

No, they don't plan to integrate Roslyn and they tend to get a bit cross when people ask. They've been working on their C# code intelligence engine for 10 years in ReSharper, and i…

Finally, a proper C# IDE on not-Windows. I've been working with ASP.NET 5 on Linux for the last year and Sublime, Atom, VSCode, etc. are all painful. Sublime is surely dead, and an…

Not a valid comparison. Torvalds still actively rules Linux in every sense. If he'd just created it then buggered off leaving it half-finished, then complained when other people tr…

Yay, the original Holy War! (vi, for the record)

Don't work with PG, he's evil! Come and work on Wall Street and be evil yourself.

Unless it's had seven billion hits, I'd say a few people haven't. I was one of them.

If you believe in free will, I'd be very interested to know your beliefs as to whence it derives. If the universe is bound by a set of consistent physical laws governing the behavi…

One could imagine the concept recurring outward, since time has no meaning. Maybe when egg has lived all the lives he moves to the next level and finds that he was both egg and the…

Well hurrah for the internet. Wait long enough and read selectively enough and you can always get the answer you want.

I make Zudio ( http://zud.io ), a tool for managing Azure storage, which uses Azure storage for its own system data. I've made it a goal since day one of developing it that I would…

Those cheat sheets are seriously out of date. Scriptaculous? VBScript / ASP? Um, no.

There is Hadoop, Microsoft have been pursuing it aggressively recently. SciPy type stuff is best handled using F#, which also works on Mono, and has some features that I haven't se…

+1

That "feature" would be better with an explicit language construct such as *args or params args[], though. As with so many complaints about JavaScript, it's the default behaviour t…
