React actually does a fabulous job of spitting out very readable error messages. It removes so many debug cycles from development that it alone is worth switching.

They're working on it. There's no tried and true formula for succeeding as a business, we all know that. I'm not sure why the expectation from everyone is "well, they have BILLIONS, they should just be able to churn out

I'm not a rocket scientist, but I would say likely that's when the launch window opened, or it was inside the window to be able to get the craft on the right trajectory to Mars. Launch windows take into account where the target&#x

As far as "screech to a halt." is concerned, it's maybe a little on the exaggerated side, but I'd believe it. I've worked for 5 different companies of varying sizes from 5 to 1000 employees. All of them have used

That's a really naive assessment of his comment. I share a similar sentiment as the OP here, programming (not coding) is hard. A lot of us get paid well to solve complex problems for clients who expect us to do the job right. Instituti

A theoretical discussion, such as the article's, isn't trying to nail down true or false. The discussion is rooted in and follows established truths along the way to explore potential new possibilities. This is what theorizing is.

While I agree with the chicken and egg statements, I think the sensationalism is a Good Thing in this instance. The language of the article and the way the information is presented gives way to some good discussion points and thought projec

> Asking people to write tests before they write code is like asking them to test-drive a new car before it even exists. This isn’t possible. This is an incredibly bad analogy that really doesn't stand up. You can write tests befo

I came here to post something like this, though I'm not a NASA engineer. I feel like there's been a few articles that have had the same strange claims of "lost" technologies. They lead the reader into thinking that since

> There has to be something about space that makes people toss money at videogames. Which is a damn travesty when people won't throw money at space in real-life. Other than a few huge backers (Musk, Branson) that have loads of money

Isn't the lack of money a major part of these problems in the first place? Imposing monetary fines on people who are riding the poverty line doesn't seem like a good solution.

Awesome, this is a really good breakdown of the Go web ecosystem. Thanks for that.

by JesseObrien 13y ago
This doesn't look like it expands much on what the Go web server does and it also looks like it's been abandoned. Last commit was ~5 months ago from today, with most of the rest being 7-8 months ago and 40-something issues piled u

For scrolling small distances there's the mouse wheel; for everything else there's spacebar.

I had almost this exact same scenario happen to me. As a developer, I was excited to see what new fun things at the time (2009) were coming out of RIM. To my dismay, like yours, I couldn't even get a hello world to run after much tinke

Same problem here. I couldn't get it to move properly at all unless I picked the mouse up and moved it.

For me, it made a larger difference in my awareness of how much energy I actually use. Before nest I simply programmed my thermostat once and never touched it again because of the pain. Now I consciously adjust the temperature throughout th

To be a bit more specific, I was moving some sites over from linode as a test to see if they would perform the same on DO. So effectively they only lost some test stuff. Still data loss though, like you said.

I noticed the same thing when I initially switched. I actually had them lose the box I was on, and the backups associated with it. They apologized and indicated it was an issue at the datacenter that they didn't have much control ove

Quite blatant indeed. They obviously didn't do any research on things like http://tagsfordroid.com/ which is a brilliant use of NFC that could not be duplicated on an iPhone.

Great work by Taylor and everyone else involved. PHP hasn't seen a framework quite like this before and it's refreshing using it.
