This was the deal breaker for me when first looking at Angular - loose coupling, progressive enhancement, accessibility and keeping code in its appropriate layers seemed to get thrown out for an attitude that everyone has JS running... it f

Still a long way to go then by looks of things (great top comment on that page also) ~ very interesting link, thank you!

It could be that he wouldn't have been good at any of those things too, and this was apparent to the people interviewing him. I had real troubles with school, and jobs where I had no interest in, luckily I tripped into an industry I en

I can't click on principal. UK red tops are toxic here and contribute towards an ill-educated society that eats up propaganda without even chewing. Not to be a _total_ buzzkill...

My sentiments exactly, kinda surprised this title made it so high up! OOP has some fantastic applications and may have been oversold to the author for a project he worked on. OOP(s)!

I see your point however I think the other map providers offer competition (BATNA), and would probably want to feature in vehicles. Especially before having to create and provide your own relatively complex solution (mapping is not easy imv

That is interesting, as OVI maps was tiles IIRC, thanks!

Personally I prefer my users to get to use the best providers of the services they want to use... unless I can actually provide a better service, especially with a luxury brand. I think this is a mistake Nokia made (several times over), the

Hardly an impossible feature to add to a mapping product tho? We are basically talking downloading the map tiles to the device you want to browse from.

Indeed, they might be making the same mistake Nokia did.

There are responsible ways to advertise which I completely agree with (that the adblocker I use respects) - and personally I do make an effort to turn it off for sites with a polite message and clearly need the revenue to function... howeve

Recently I noticed that most people I would consider evil, are actually people doing what they think is right but with the wrong information - as well as people giving into basic animal instincts that as a society we aim to rise above. Sayi

I caught myself thinking the same thing, however if you compare software to a physical product the importance of the analogy remains intact. It may not apply to you however, I have been lucky enough to be surrounded by some very well discip

I think there is a lot more in this than you make out. Unless you really need specific hardware access that cannot be achieved in the browser alone, creating a mobile app is an unnecessary, very complicated set of hoops, to jump through, fo

I second this question, also, why would you expect it to work? I'd far rather they (or anyone) spent their time on clients (browsers) that support features than address issues which could be resolved by someone using a modern browser.

Yea but a designer thinks they look cool and hasn't researched these things so we must push forward... thanks Wired... Jokes aside, I do find articles like this quite vexing, they take a glance at an area that has a huge amount of dept

I don't think anyone can genuinely make that call without the actual numbers. And I wouldn't trust those that are not truly independent. I agree that it is not completely black & white, but I would be surprised if someone is n

I'd say he is an awesome hire! Interested and able, also with seemingly a good understand of privacy and social location data. Handling GEO data for individuals is very very tricky.

A friend of mine pointed out: 68% growth in # of merchants using the service last year, yet losses doubled. Could this mean their VCs actually want some money back? Aside: I have used Shopify to develop e-commerce sites and its lack of loca

I couldn't agree more - fixing gender/racial stereotypes in our society is a separate issue from who needs to be hired in a specific industry - as soon as you combine the issue you end up with some pretty daft solutions.

I definitely fell victim to this - I would still aim to be as semantic to the data as possible but don't lose much time/sleep over it - especially when the last point has been very true in my experience.

I can think of lots of products/sites that could benefit from having IE9 support. E-commerce for instance, public services... anything that needs to have a far reach. Still, quite a few options for what you can do without flexbox suppo

using display: table-cell; is a hack and has quite a few gotchas. However it was a very useful hack none-the-less for a feature which most designers would never expect would be such a challenge.
