These are async functions - which means they happen after the data is already in the database. They basically act like a producer/consumer pipeline. Triggers happen before the data is saved - which lets you change the request (or other

I love the idea behind firebase, but it's just not worth it unless they have triggers - even the simplest functionality is extremely hard without pre-persist triggers.

It used to be, back before SPAs were common, about 7-10 years ago. Rails, django, asp.net mvc - all of them had autogenerated most code, including html, handled auth, persistance and such. Even now if you don't go spa it's very co

"Since every pixel on the UI is rendered by the framework" This is a deal breaker for me. It's not about the ui feeling a bit off - the drawer going over instead of pushing things or some such, it's about losing the inte

Sometimes, things that look obvious and simple require a lot of work and research to build so that it will fit the product and won't damage the community and momentum. This isn't one of those times. Seriously, what in the world to

There are two camps - those who believe that an open source license implicitly provides patent grants and those who believe an open source license does not allow patent use. Until such a thing is tested in court (in each country) both ideas

I know that a ton of people swear by the iPhone, and it will probably be a hit no matter what, but every new one that comes up all I can think of is how much good UX they sacrificed for the shake of having a better looking product. One butt

That JSON has a "good reason" for disallowing comments is an opinion, it could be a popular, well-known and established opinion or it could be completely uninformed. To know the difference one must explain it. Also standards chang

no, we downvote things that state an opinion as fact without even an attempt at explaining why, especially when done in a tone that is aggressive and disrespectful.

Merge it themselves and thank him, or write the implementation they wanted originally and ignore the commit. Asking the guy to come do the work after they rejected him 4 years later is extremely rude.

First, I'm pretty sure that's ad hominem. Second, I said that it's probably ok that they chose the sites to validate their claims, saying they do that often isn't a counter argument. Third, twisting my word so blatantly

I like the purple button in the cosmopolitan hotel example, and that is a full gradient as far as I can tell. I agree that gradients can be use tactlessly but I find when the colors are chosen correctly they look really well. Of course beve

I really dislike that flat-design has destroyed the use of gradients, I think buttons are much nicer when they look 3d. But flat design did spread the importance of contrast, simplicity and subtlety, not to mention using animations to conve

I think the biggest take away from this research is that a bad non-flat UI can make a site look ugly but a bad Flat UI can hinder user experience. Frankly, I think that's a pretty obvious insight, but there are a lot of people who don&
