> You do the promise-as-a-pyramid example, then say you still have to nest and leave it at that, misrepresentation if not malice. Basically, you have a solution through promises yo…

> The promise usage here is so terrible it's not even funny. Unnecessary hyperbole aside, I think you're confusing two conflicting goals. One is to provide code examples in order t…

Interesting idea, but wouldn't the devise register a false hit if the sword hits an obstacle in the environment?

Seems like you're playing a few roles, but the chief ones would probably be: Product Manager: You take business goals and turn them into technical requirements, then ensure the pro…

Interesting, but I find the user experience breaks down rather quickly when I try to find out how much I could expect to pay if I moved a webapp to Jelastic. Annoying considering "…

It'd be more interesting to allow some sort of optional rating system which feeds into something like a gaming matchmaking system. People who consistently send out good reviews wil…

I've worked with managers who could successfully drink with employees as well as fire under performers (often in a way which didn't end the beer relationship), but all of them had …

From my experience, "most" of those JavaScript developers who "hate JavaScript" are in fact front-end developers who hate writing JavaScript for websites, since they struggle daily…

"Regarding privacy, promoters say the video isn’t clear and isn’t recorded, so it’s not archived." I wish people would realize that everything on the Internet can be subject to une…

Makes sense. How many of the plugins sites try to install are actually useful? I wonder if Google will whitelist the page once this comes to their attention.

The product rep in those videos is brilliant.

You'd probably be better off adding a little bit of equity to the offer.

Easiest way is to just ask really simple technical questions in the submission area as a captcha. Not sure which technical questions would be 100% answerable to everyone around her…

PHP makes it possible for people to use it poorly, yes. Blame bad developers, not the language that lets them write bad code. If I want to write a widget that a majority of designe…

If by access to a professor, you mean someone who knows the material extremely well and can help you with questions or steer you in the right direction, you can get that for free f…

I like how the article suggests that the cost of developing a viral Facebook application is $200 for outsourcing to India. I agree with the premise of the article, though. Except f…

I was a little worried about Bowie's performance of Tesla before I saw the movie. In the end, however, I was very pleased.

I'm just hoping Battlestar Galactica's last season can be salvaged. I'd hate to see it mucked up forever by something so temporary as a writer's strike.

That's quite possibly the greatest thing I've ever seen.

Does anyone else just get a Mephisto login prompt? Can I have an account please, Eric? :D

This might be better titled as Frameworks vs. Languages. Of course, since most people writing modular code will end up making a framework for their application, it's really Shelf F…

Exactly. This is something a user of Google Toolbar might have cause to gripe about (assuming they weren't told in advance), but not someone who owns a website with 404s that get r…

I attempted to delete my Facebook account over the last week and it has been a grueling experience. I tried to change my name to "Delete Me", but that name is on the list of names …
