It's a pain because some libs support AMD and some don't, but it's the least bad solution that I know of. If there's a better option I'm all ears. Of course you can add a global variable in a module if you want to, but 1. why would you? a

The big piece missing from this is RequireJs as the author mentions. We should all know it's good practice not to use global variables so that should be reason enough to use it in itself. As an example an app we built had a conflict between

To be fair a trampoline is pretty irresistible to a child. It's like leaving a big barrel of sweets unattended.

What do you do to stop people emailing code out?

It would make sense if your comments were weighted higher having a higher karma, but I think all of our comments start at the top to make sure that at least someone sees them and that they can get upvotes if they are insightful/interesting.

"centralized administration of user access" This is exactly the sort of thing I'm talking about. Let the team working on the code decide who has access to the code. Not some person in a different part of the country who has no idea what t

FYI I think all comments begin at the top. My comments also start at the top and then fairly quickly move down into upvote order, my karma is well below the top of the leaderboard.

I don't think this would solve the problem as stated as the first comments will still see more votes having been there longer.

Yes, but if the repo was hosted on Github rather than internally then the slow VPN provisioning wouldn't have been an issue. (Good) web services like Github tend to reduce friction, corporate bureaucracies tend to increase friction.

by analog 14y ago
Well both of our experiences are anecdotal aren't they. And having a server running doesn't mean that everyone has access to it, one of the issues I've faced is getting approval for VPN access (took a month IIRC) which prevented access to t

From what I've seen in corporate environments downtime of infrastructure run by internal teams is just as high if not higher than with Github.

Spain's economy is in a pretty bad state at the moment. Worse than the other countries you mentioned as far as I'm aware. In the town where I live the local police hadn't been paid for two months, so they made up their wages by setting up c

I did take a look at that, and developers were still complaining about it. I also wasn't too impressed with the way that Woo went about acquiring the project to be honest.

The takedown notice specifically cites the review page, not the product pages, and the product pages are still up [1]. GoPro are lying. [1] http://www.digitalrev.com/product/gopro-hero3-black-edition/...

Also worth looking at are the Drift HD, Contour+2, Panasonic A100 HD.

The Contour+2 looks like a good alternative. I've been looking through the reviews after my Hero3 Silver turned out to be a lemon. Main differences seem to be that the Hero3 has slightly better in-camera image processing, but is less reliab

The recent launch of the Hero 3 was pretty terrible. The CEO had to issue a public apology. [1] Plenty of problems that made the cameras unusable. They are now basically an amateur camera that has been well marketed unfortunately. [1] http

My understanding is that for the more complex examples (CRM, auction site) it doesn't work particularly well. Sure you can do it but if you're having to work with Wordpress internals rather than rely on plugins that someone else has writt

You're also attempting to Strawman me by presenting arguments as mine that I never stated. "Your argument though is that those dozen possible treatments justify the entire alt.med industry?"

by analog 14y ago
You're attempting the No True Scotsman argument. You say any alt med that works is part of std med.

Ok, if that's not good enough for you then pick one of the other examples that the ACS provide. Or continue attacking the ACS as a reputable source, whatever. Or go and look up the examples that the med student provided, Inositol or Theanin

One of the examples cited by the ACS is the use of prayer. Apparently this has been shown to be effective in some cases. The use of prayer is definitely part of alt med, and has been shown to work, therefore Nursie is incorrect when he says

In my experience it varies quite a lot. From maybe 5% to 100% or more of initial time spent. Depends on the problem the code is solving and also how good the code was in the first place.

No sorry you're wrong, he responded to me saying 'if it works' with "It doesn't." , and also said "I don't understand how it works because it doesn't"

Either way, good on them for doing the right thing.

If Nick's University has a claim on the code, then the company probably don't have the right to use the library themselves. If the University decided to assert their IP rights they could either demand a licence fee or the removal of the lib
