That's basically the pattern my company is already using, implementing using our own plugin. We render the full page server-side (using ASP.Net MVC, which is hooked into our server-side Enterprise Application Framework), and then we ho

No, I want to do server-side rendering using whatever I want, and have the js framework take over once it is clientside.

I'd really like to see this too. Most of what I've seen is something like "use node.js on the server and make use of the framework's server-side rendering capabilities". For me that's a problem, because I don&#

Are you detecting an inability to shift gears quickly, or is it a reluctance to shift gears quickly based on hard-won experience where management-driven frequently-changing requirements led to project failures that were then blamed on the d

That's uncalled for. How many software developers ever bother to use the software they develop, or work with (or even talk to) the people who use the software as part of their job? Actually doing the job that your users do, even part t

What you and the people replying to you are describing sounds a lot like what happens when you try to read during a dream: you just can't. If you look at text while dreaming you recognize the words but they don't make any sense, a

Is this "What a single developer can do over two years of 80-hr/week work", or is it "What a single developer can do in their spare time over a few weeks"?

Yes, your body temperature can be lowered, somewhat. Your temperature actually varies over a pretty wide range all of the time, with daily cycles and in response with your activities and things like fighting infections. But your average tem

We also don't have the ability (or understanding) to control the conversion of energy-in-food into energy-our-body-can-use + energy-our-body-can-store + waste-products. Food is not gasoline, and our bodies are not combustion engines. E

The apartment I'm living in now is in a renovated factory which was built in the 30's. Very solid brick and concrete construction. There's a new apartment building not far from me; they built a two-story concrete structure wi

I would say "isn't working" in the sense that the vast majority are struggling to achieve or retain financial security, while a tiny minority have concentrated most of the weath for themselves. Also, the trend continues to co

I've been a Prime member for years, and I order stuff very often so the free shipping definitely is worth the membership fee. I always use the "Amazon Prime" filter when I search, and I've never had any issues with those

I read that as an escape clause, and I think a lot of his proposals have similar clauses. Except for a few examples, I think most of his proposals could actually be done in a centrist/progressive/liberal way. It's all going t

Several years ago I wrote a blog post expressing a related point, contrasting software design to construction. Here's a part: Let me give an example: if you're designing a bridge, you can draw blueprints on paper which shows girde

That joke's not true at all, if you write your code well. It comes from many people writing really bad code and sharing it widely through cgi script archives. Lots of stuff on CPAN was bad too. And of course there was a lot of intentio

I'd been coding on the side from 12 years old right up through grad school; many different languages at many different levels. Assembly languages, BASIC, Pascal, C, C++, Cobol, Forth, Prolog, Java, etc. Through it all I thought I'

That's the number we can detect. Either intelligent life is extraordinarily rare, and we're the only local example, or it's fairly common and we just haven't detected it yet. I'd be much more surprised if we only di

I'm not sure about it applying only to web-developers. It might be more focused on application-developers, where business requirements hit the UI. Developers working on services, libraries, frameworks, and platforms have different engi

I find the prediction of the next global dust storm, and the cause, interesting. The theory is that the other planets influence Mars' orbit, and when that influence has a particular characteristic at the right time in the Martian year,

If a standard is insecure, all of the members of the standards body should be able to recognize that and change the standard. If that hasn't happened, then the other members must not agree that the standard has a security problem. Mayb

That's an interesting idea... I think the thin atmosphere and lack of ocean might actually make comet strikes on Mars less devastating than on Earth. Less frictional heating during the impact, no global tsunamis caused by an ocean stri

Once the farm's in operation for a while, I'd assume they could compost a lot of the waste material picked up during harvesting. I'm not sure about tomatoes; are the plants destroyed during harvest and grown from seed each se

Sure, that's the point of the standards process. Apple made their argument as a full member of the W3C and other standards committees. If they weren't convincing enough and the committee choose to go another way with the standard,

Yeah but Safari has pretty much 100% market share among iOS users. As a web developer, Safari is a huge pain for me. Most of the time I can develop on Firefox and stick to the standards and most of the modern and/or commonly used brows

Those who hate Trump also won't change their opinions, regardless of what they think about Clinton. It's a choice between "at worst, try again in four years for real improvement" and "this is the end". Hmm... d

Because doing all of that while the current system is still working is much easier than trying to do it after the old system has failed.

On some of the images you can see the layers; it looks like there are 10 of them. So the resoultion is more like 600x330x10.

That's because there's relatively few of them, serving many customers. The GP post inverts that, suggesting the vast majority working service jobs for the relatively few customers who can afford to pay them. That's a servant&
