Yey, different countries/cultures have different traditions. Film at 11. If you want to be useful, set up a site/wiki that can describe the different traditions in different countries. That would be useful.

This looks nice, but the time zone has to be set correctly for the user, CST means nothing for me. Probably best to determine it with javascript, and then give the user an option to change if required.

I thought this Google thing was that they just added a few more terms (this time torrent related) to their auto-complete stop list. Is that incorrect? (apologies for the ignorance, have been offline for a few days)

I think another point is that programming is generally started as a hobby, because you love it. You might spend years and years doing it for fun - you are in control what you're doing, you do things that you like. Then, it becomes a profess

Don't get me wrong, I think Catalyst is great. But I liked the look of Mojo (and Mojo::Lite) -- as I said I haven't used it much but I'll try to use it in a project soon -- I also think it's good for Perl as a whole that there's an easy to

Love it. I've used Catalyst for some project, but I've now been looking at Mojo and I like the look of it. Haven't used it much yes so I can't comment on details, but it looks solid

Apart from some mailing list, which bypasses the inbox, I always want to get unread messages read. If it's junk I'll delete, if it's something I need to action later, I'll star it (gmail). I just don't want to see "Unread messages"..

This discussion has focused on OO, but my point was that their general level was very low -- it wasn't just a lack of OO experience. Good knowledge in some other area would have made it a lesser issue that they didn't have OO experience, bu

True, OO is not the only way to code. But if you don't have any experience with it, how can you make an informed decision? edit: also it depends on what type of programming you're supposed to do. This particular case was for web development
