   Last time I checked Zynga was still spending money on acquiring users that belong to Facebook, on Facebook.

   Offtopic, but drupal stores locks in a DB? That looks highly inefficient.

   For those considering Twig or other templating alternatives: http://phptemplatinglanguage.com/ Really, PHP itself is a fine templating language if used properly. Get to know the short tags (including the short echo <?=$stuff?>) an

   I think it's good this way, it forces the developer to think about the implications of escaped vs unescaped output. The way I see it, having htmlspecialchars/htmlentities applied automatically by a template engine is a close relative to the

   Only array literals were implemented though, not objects. That was long overdue, but in the age of JSON we live in it's not enough. For instance, the following in Javascript: var myObject = { memberOne: 'some string value', member

   I hate how to this day PHP still lacks of an obvious way to write object literals, instead forcing you to either cast arrays, which is verbose and ugly, or use stdClasses, which personally I do but damn are they a pain to use and maintainin

   What kind of contract does VMWare use to sponsor open source projects? Because up until now I thought sponsoring and buying ownership were different things.

   This would be useful actually. I wrote "if !hasClass addClass, else removeClass" countless times until I figured, hey, maybe jQuery has a toggleClass function, I should look it up. These situations could be avoided if a "related functions"

    Am I the only one who thought this has startup potential? It sounds like a problem in search of a solution. I can picture for instance a service that would take a page, scan it, remove all the unnecesary clutter and make it as much screen r

    > iOS fluidity still has no equal I've been using the iPhone for a while before switching to a Nexus 4, and honestly there is nothing that feels more fluid on iOS than on a Nexus 4 running jelly bean 4.2.1.

    I think your best shot, if you don't care about the money short term, would be in trying to get a traineeship job; here in Germany for instance most companies are always willing to take extremely cheap employees regardless the background, a

    IMHO, no modern JS developer should ever need to create a blocking alert or prompt; the reason the native alert or prompt functions block is because, well, they are not designed for what the web is today.

    Also it simply makes no sense spending time setting up, configuring and maintaining email servers as a business owner when there are more important things to put your time in.

    "In initial benchmarking with a hello world server, this is between 2 and 4 times faster than node.js." <- Is this true? Does this mean the interpreter is faster than V8?

    According to the link the data was collected through an app. This is not Facebook's fault, this is the developer being an idiot, because Facebook TOS are very clear when it comes to data; the developer is in big trouble if found.

    This would dramatically lower the conversion for developers, and unhappy developers make facebook unhappy. Facebook could make it way more obvious if they wanted to, but they just try to balance how much they screw users vs how much they sc

    +1 This is probably very very subtle for most people to notice, but I'm seeing aswell and it's bugging me to no end. I'm pretty sure even the colors in the developer tools are off. At first I thought it was just me seeing things, but surely
