I think that not listening a poor performer's opinion too carefully on any subject is generally good advice.

That's interesting. I was thinking that I could learn some JavaScript from it, all that neat drag & drop and item placement stuff. Turned out that it uses Yahoo UI library for all …

Every interpretation tells us something about the observer. This person interpreted the change as an improvement at the counter.

I agree with you, but the point is damn well hidden behind one of the crappiest analogies of all time: using duct tape is an indication that you're great engineer - but only if you…

It is not an attack towards person. It simply points that a guy selling bug tracking system makes his living from people having bugs in their software.

If you engage in discussion about the definition of entrepeneurship, you are probably not an entrepeneur. Like I just did.

That's not too accurately summarized. In the linked text they promise to not sue individuals participating noncommercial open source development related to certain covered techolog…

The article to which this one is a response, has exactly the opposite point of view: http://perl-yarg.blogspot.com/2009/06/darkpan-schmarkpan-sto... As, to some extent, does a foll…

And instead of nitpicking, try to see the gist of it. When you have the choice, choose. When you're not obliged, choose. You don't have to do it like the "Yes Man".

Many of the commenters here seem not to understand the setup: when a bullying "relationship" has been established, it already has become a difficult issue. Standing up against a bu…

Kids are really good at low-level social dynamics. They know the balance and go with the flow. That's how bullying often is so successful. For a bully, only limiting factors are fe…

I find it rather corny that a page promoting use of HTML Canvas uses Flash itself to represent textual headings on the page. (Noticed it when scrolling with the mouse wheel suddenl…

I don't believe that to be the case. Our temperaments are quite hard-wired in our brains. IMO a better approach is to: - honestly learn about oneself, including the sides one or ot…
