Except MongoDB's and Node.js's incremental improvements in their marketed use case of easy scalability weren't worth your time if you really were concerned with scalability. You would have been better served by existing syste

To clarify my moon examples would be NodeJS, MongoDB is web scale, HTML5/WebGL/VMs/Flash on mobiles, fast JIT/VMs for languages that aren't designed to be fast from the beginning etc. Things that are technically har

I think this improved programming vision starts at a higher level language like Clojure/JS/Haskell and builds on that. To allow the everyday Joe to use simplified programming all the way down to machine code is a harder task. Lang

Keeping up with actual progress should be easier. The current "stagnant" state could be called that because your attention is wasted on miracle cures that promise the moon, but mostly deliver a minor improvement or make things wor

Node.js does not. Maybe Redis does for it's advertised use case of caching. Node.js was commonly hated on for missing crucial scalability features that are being fixed bit by bit. But why people bothered to reinvent those features on t

It used to be much worse with flashy microsites. You'd open them and wait minutes for the first page to load. Then click somewhere and wait again. And the UIs would be much more confusing. Scrollwheel would be disabled. This flash thro

Well the article says they don't even come close. If you focus on screenshots and scripted playthroughs then maybe. But if you play a simple 3D physics demo where everything can be destroyed and Battlefield 4 where only 5 buildings can

What did the site look like with ads? Have you considered making ads less intrusive? There are networks like this http://decknetwork.net that stipulate one small jpg ad per page. Where do you get the content? Do you write any yo

Actually if you watch Raw Iron, the making of Pumping Iron, the shirt stealing joke was set up for the documentary and wasn't by Arnold. It was done as a docu-drama, not a documentary. Pumping is like cumming, missing dad's funera
