True, but then as a cyclist we'd go to prison for killing someone. That's why I have well maintained disc brakes and a healthy respect for traffic signals (as I'm sure you do, also). Many people don't, unfortunately.

Those stories sound pretty terrifying and I'm impressed you continued with it! - Pedestrians who don't see you coming This one struck a chord with me as it's my biggest issue with cyclists (and I am one). The pedestrians have right of way,

Totally agree, I'm the same. I have a real feeling that the years spent between 10/11 and 15 when I was mucking around doing a really bad job in C have given me a foundation to build on which many developers have to build in their twenties.

I concur. I'm 34, been programming "properly" (think C, C#, JavaScript, Python, Objective C etc) for over 20 years now, and I've noticed that in the last couple of years most of my productive coding time is just thinking. 3 hours of sitting

I'm guessing because it's not our fight. I don't know your location, but guessing US? American film makers may churn out documentaries about the Third Reich, but many Germans don't really dwell on what happened (and why would they?) In the

In part, it's relief. the Angular project has relatively minimal functionality and therefore does it quite well. The documentation is adequate (there are a few places where there are 'magic settings' which aren't immediately obvious, plus i

Yes, in a simplistic world if you think that's all those accountants did. Who tests the software? You need accountants.

Doing simple JavaScript is easy. Doing JavaScript well, that scales and doesn't become a spaghetti mess is _hard_. Having said that, there are a tonne of libraries and tools which make it much better these days. A language is only as good a

Yeah, I know this. You wouldn't be able to step through your code in browser dev tools otherwise. The DOM manipulation stuff is one of the features which sold me on Angular. I love the idea that everything renders itself then responds to a

My 2 cents in response: I use C#, JavaScript and Python daily. I spent 6 months learning Ruby but decided it wasn't for me. I also use Objective C for iOS and enjoy optimising SQL in my database layer. However the three platforms I use in o

Seconded. We can't use public services for internal messaging, but we do have JIRA + Stash inside the firewall. Hipchat server would be good, or is it XMPP compatible?

I think if you're starting to add more logic in, you're expected to make your own directives and transclude like in http://blog.omkarpatil.com/2012/11/transclude-in-angularjs.h...

Django has a massive ecosystem where most of the hard work has been done for you. Some people argue it's too much and you should use something like Flask or Web.py but you're going to end up reinventing stuff that's already been solved.

It's actually not that hard. iCloud and GrooveShark are quite graphic-heavy which gives them that extra edge. Frontend technologies are pushing forward at an incredible rate. Have you played with Sencha Touch or Google's Angular JS or Ember
