   VueJS is a lightweight version of Angular but has the same pitfalls when its comes to being isomorphic. React is an engineers overkill solution. JSX is bluck. I use mithril.

   What I did was buy a for $80 bucks the original console. $20 for a new pin so games played right away, and got a 150 in 1 cartridge. 30 games? Pfff.

    I loved this video because I got all the references. I sit on the Ruby on Rails facebook group, and its flooded with people from India trying to learn ruby. What I find unusual is they publish tutorials when there are plenty of good sources

    I own quite a few copies of the Lucky Peach but I find myself not able to make the majority of recipes because their recipes focus on strong overpowering ingredients. To me this is sad way of cooking, where a recipe is dominated by onions,

    I think such books are pointless if you aren't going to use them in your day-to-day work.

    I've been professionally been developing for 10 years, and I stay a contractor because the hiring process of companies depresses me. When there is a CS person interviewing me I get depressed because I know they are going to do a sanity

    I don't know whats wrong with vanilla rails. The most I have to do to organize large projects is used concerns. For better performance I serve up json directly from Postgres. All these additional abstractions makes it hard to migrate a

    I think MithrilJS has the best trade-offs. You get insane speed without insane complications. I dread ever having to write ReactJS again as the entire setup is quite gross. The sliver of speed in ReactJS is not worth the bloat.

    Well gave up trying to run or preview this math editor. Also its using MathJax which is already known to be very slow compared to roll your own or Katex. I guess I'll stick with MathQuill which lets you preview as you type. http:&#x2F

    I suspect the awful loading time on both the demo and the repo is this code is sitting in mainland China. I haven't even been able to see the demo There is no license included and non of the dependencies are included in the package.jso

    Even if you want to eventually you won't be able to code around the clock. I', now 29 but working for startups putting in 8-14 hours a day takes its toll, and now I can't sit at a desk or my acid reflux will kindly tell me to

    I dunno, as a dev you can just docker your environment and if your Macbook air dies, you buy a new one, and simply pull your images and your back to work in minutes. Even setting up a mac from scratch for me only takes an hour, and I run an

    The project's success is due to the ecosystem they've created. Any introductions of designers/developers could spell entire doom for the project. I can appreciate not bringing in new talent as it is an unnecessary gamble.

    Go is good enough when you're switching from Ruby to Go and all you do is build web-applications. * Its forced syntax stops syntax wars. * Compiling down to one binary makes deployment easy. * Its has concurrency out of the box. * Its

    I wanted to contribute and I started by refactoring large pieces of the codebase but didn't have the bandwidth to go through the process of getting it submitted. The code quality was and still is horrendous, but that wasn't the is
