I was in China for a month, there's no way you can get away "living like a westerner" on $0.25 USD/day maybe living like a poor Chinese peasant. But just taking a bus somewhere costs around 15 cents.

My phone? Naw, but a tablet like the transformer I would work on code if I was offsite and I needed to do a small fix or something like that.

But this is a simple error caught by js(h/l)int. And it's especially easy to spot if you just declare each var one after another: var a, b, c, d; e; Then your editor (which you've a integrat

While it's true you can't do 1 to 1 the fact that my site does ~700 times as much traffic, and it is absolutely the latter of your two types time ten is a cause for caution. This is why I want to hear from some actual enterprise level peopl

I'd like to know this as well. Some of my Coworkers went to RailsCon a few weeks ago and were remarking how a speaker talked about how they scaled from tens of thousands of hits a month to a couple hundred thousand hits a month. Not very en

In Alberta, Canada, software developers cannot be have "Engineer" in their title, for this very reason, unless they fit a very specific set of requirements [1]. The Canadian Council of Professional Engineers defends the title, via The EGP A

I guess that's why I gravitate towards JavaScript, still kinda the Wild West where we can still write things from scratch.

I felt like I was more of a configuration engineer than software developer when I was working in VS. If I got stuck I would just start typing and then hit ctrl+space and scroll through intellisense to get the options that seemed to fit.

Strict Equals Operator (===) does exactly what I expect and that is no funny coercion or guessing, two objects I'm evaluating have a 1 for 1 likeness, no more no less. How is that confusing?

The main idea around Chrome is no significant changes from version to version. If you look at Chrome 9 and Chrome 15 you'll see there are significant changes but they were made in small iterations with each release. The benefit of this is i
