In may frameworks service layers are usually implemented as singletons to prevent the expansion of memory requirements with a lot of throughput. However, services designed like this _should_ be stateless. Basically they exist to do the heav

Although Comcast is notorious for having terrible customer service, this is NOT the only fee-for-service business that deals with disconnects like this that I have dealt with. It seems to be a trend now to harangue customers when they want

I loved Ultima IV. I think I still have the original cloth map and ankh somewhere. I believe it came with 5 1/4" floppys for the C64. You have to remember that at the time, that there were really 3 game media back then. A) board g

I noticed that to. For C++03 you might need it for scoped_ptr/shared_ptr, but not if you're going to require C++11. If you're going down the -lpthread route you should probably just use them rather than forcing the include o

There is a classification system, but it's a neat 'cubby-hole' approach to systems biology. The reality is that not everything has a clean parent-child relationship. For example, humans have the ABO blood group system. If y

Angular has it's ups and downs like every framework. One of the core issues with angular is maintainability imho. There are few best practices and almost no documentation on proper project layout. You can also build an application any

Microsoft cooked it's own hotdog. They have always been 2 steps behind on virtually every product release. Windows phone - check. Browser that supports modern javascript - check. An OS that looks wonky on the desktop because they'

I actually had a very different situation. I felt knocking on doors was easy as a missionary and terribly difficult post-mission when I tried doing door-to-door sales later on. In the end it's where you heart is on whether or not you&#

I never got from this article why you should roll your own CSS framework. The real purpose behind stuff like bootstrap is so that you can quickly prototype a site without having to spend a few days writing a CSS framework. Once the prototyp

I also remember reading an old article from around 2000 about prairie dog language. It wasn't as hokey as the article linked above though. I remember something about researchers realizing the dogs had a vocabulary when they would bark diffe
