I would like to suggest using Knockout for this sort of thing instead. And as I side benefit you get can get reactive observable and a rich HTML binding syntax. We do this sort of conditional rendering with KO in our application and it work

Cloud is a marketing term more often than not. Reminds me of EA's (computer games) latest Sim City. They stated that the player's city would be saved on the cloud, when in reality players logged onto various regional servers ie Eu

I'm not seeing how the fact the teacher is male and the student is female had anything to do with what looks like uninspired teaching methods. Much of her experience would be equally applicable to any gifted student male or female. Mas

From my limited experience of Unreal Script it was a pretty rough implementation of a language, it really didn't seem to provide any real benefits. What I would have liked to see was better support for interactive development. When I w

"It is very possible to write games in high-level languages, but you will lose at least half the compute power of the machine by doing so." Sounds definitive, interesting considering that in some cases languages like OCaml outperf

It's just a move covert intelligent gathering approach of using a vaccination program to obtain DNA samples of the local populace. It's exercise for the reader to work out when technique was apparently used. Certain groups that t

I doubt he meant that it was not useful, rather that the usefulness might have been better served as a function of the compiler rather than some disconnected transformation tool. Of course this thought process would eventual bring you down

I think you might have missed the point of the statement "programs that write programs", it goes far beyond a toy quine. You can't do it in C unless you also implement a compiler or evaluator. And even then generating any sor

Unfortunately I think many people get "Lost In Stupid Parenthesis" because they either refuse to use or are not supplied with the proper tools. Lisp programs are of such an elegant structure form that they lend them selves to high

For me the pertinent part of this and related stories is that the governments will undertake any action no matter how abhorrent at the beckoning of whatever lobby dollars come their way. That is the real criminality; text book protection ra

From my understanding the only party that can make money without taking it from others are governments, though they do take as well.

Really awesome tool. Couple of suggestions: Not sure if it is possible in the current form, but it would be nice if I could specify some ingredients to be used in a given plan. The scenario is that I have picked up some cheap carrots for ex

My take on this is that it is effective because it reduces peoples fear of suggesting an idea. We all feel something for our own genuine suggestions, a sort of ownership, and so fear the possibility of rejection as it would be a rejection o

Not surprising but always worth highlighting. In my opinion this is the meritocracy Michael Young described.

Wouldn't rule out Javascript then. I think common sense applied to the process would be enough, rather than mandating languages that may or may not be relevant in the future. Though Patent System and Common Sense might be bit of an oxymoron

And the Greeks bought the Cypriot debt maybe; humour attempt. This doesn't really change my assertions, the Cypriot debt holders should take the hit first, let the pain filter through the whole rotten trail.

It amazes me how many people mention tax evasion, and other excuses for apportioning of liability. The liability should lie with the people who bought the Cypriot/Greek debt in the first place. They are the ones that in essence lent the mon

Depending on the implementation of the OO system in question it could provide you with relatively limited options for abstraction. I can only really speak from a Common Lisp point of view and the problem there that I was alluding to is the

For me a language is getting close to "powerful enough" when it does not get in the way of you as the programmer when you are developing abstractions of the form that seems most natural to you. This can cause problems in some cases; when th
