I was really unsure what the result would be -- I definitely shared your concerns when I started. The core of Dart is surprisingly stable -- the team is doing a really solid job of…

Yup, that is absolutely why I do this. I'm not sure it would be possible to keep this up without an intense curiosity about these topics :) There is also a selfish aspect to it. By…

I think we're actually mostly in agreement :) Neither The SPDY Book nor Dart for Hipsters was meant to be a definitive guide on their respective subjects. They are 150 page intros …

That is a fair point. I had not run SPDY in a heavily utilized production environment. I'll agree that there are things that I would learn had I done so, but I would definitely arg…

Gotcha. The title is intentionally over the top and definitely worthy of, at least, a skeptical attitude. I do have some awesome pancake recipes though...

I've been coding since the mid-nineties and had been content to be good/competent. From there to book writer is, I think, a natural outgrowth of the chain posts. I know Nick IRL. H…

Much thanks. I've definitely appreciated the encouragement along the way. But mostly it's cool to know that my posts have helped. Makes it that much more worthwhile :)

Yah, that's actually where I got the original idea: http://japhr.blogspot.com/2009/03/my-chain.html (should have made that more clear). I'm never going to reach Seinfeld levels, bu…

Ah, but I think that's the point. My understanding of the topics is anything but superficial. If you follow along with my daily posts, I think you can see me work through initial i…

That's fantastic news. It'll be so much easier if NPN is available in Ubuntu proper. Huge thanks!

FWIW this is a follow-up to http://www.confreaks.com/videos/652-gogaruco2011-you-ain-t-s...

The thoughbot book is available here: https://workshops.thoughtbot.com/backbone-js-on-rails . Great stuff going on there -- heartily recommend it.

Keep your money then, we do not discuss drag and drop in the book :) Have you already seen this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7328265/jquery-draggable-... ?

I agree that the PDF formatting leaves something to be desired. We are using the OSS git-scribe ( https://github.com/schacon/git-scribe ) toolchain for producing PDF, Mobi, and ePu…

Dang. Fixed the TOC. Thanks for pointing that out. Nick and I will discuss making the intro available. We are targeting intermediate / advanced Backbone.js developers. That is, you…

We can do you one better than that -- two entire chapters are online. Viewable from the table of contents page: http://recipeswithbackbone.com/toc.html

If you have _any_ problems, please do not hesitate to contact us at support@recipeswithbackbone.com. We will work our collective butts off to make sure that everything gets process…
