Honestly, if Mozilla wants to continue surviving, and wants to break their scary dependence on Google, I don't know what non-advertising alternatives they can explore. (maybe a Wikipedia-style pledge drive on the new tab page? Of cours

As someone who only started working in tech last summer and hasn't yet put a lot of thought into career development, this book sounds perfect for me.

Ooh, cool. I was just idly wondering today whether I could easily delete all my posts from high school (full of angst about calculus and bus rides). If Facebook actually wants people to be using their service in twenty years, they should re

Yeah, I think it's rather misleading to compare om to the performance of the least optimized and most naive (on purpose, mind you) framework instead of a more robust one.

The title of this post is strange. This seems more like the future of JavaScript views than the future of models or controllers. I don't see a large movement to immutable data structures on the horizon in JS. I can appreciate the perfo

Just because an OS has a "majority market share" doesn't make it a suitable market. Elegant, minimal premium apps like Clear have done well on the iOS app store, but it's hard to imagine a $5 calculator app getting much

Oh, c'mon, don't act like this reflects poorly on them. This hit Hacker News at midnight on Friday, I seriously doubt they self-submitted or expected it at all. For all we know, this could just be a demo site still running on a si

Not too far removed from tracking for advertising purposes, honestly. Just a lot more sources to work with, presumedly.

I have to imagine that the long-term solution for this is for employers to find better criteria to judge candidates on than a GPA. There's too much variance in schools and classes to really consider it an accurate judge of ability. It&

It's a public API meant for consumption by other developers, 95-99% of which are going to be use camelCase. I don't care what their code looks like internally. I do care about the public interface to it.

This is insane. I have literally never seen a large-scale open source project or JS style guide that uses snake_case. The DOM is camelCase. jQuery is camelCase. Node APIs are camelCase. Why on earth do Zurb think their library is any differ

I got Aereo purely to watch NFL games legally. If this goes away, I suppose I could go back to pirating streams. To be fair, NFL Sunday Ticket is a really great subscription service if you want to follow out-of-market teams (I considered ge

Mechanical keyboards are awesome. Model Ms are cool, but if you want something a bit more modern (with media keys, a slightly smaller footprint, and slightly quieter keys), look into any keyboard that advertises having Cherry MX switches.

This is why I always find skyrocketing conversion rates of Bitcoin so funny: it's certainly not impossible to get money out as a traditional currency, but it's damn sure fraught with peril.

My main concern - how does application state get handed off to the client-side code after the initial render? Sure, it's nice to have some pre-rendered templates, but at some point it needs to "transition" cleanly to the clie

Yeah, I was a bit confused by what the author meant. I can see it not being a good idea to start your own startup super early for the reasons the author lists. I don't think there's anything wrong with joining a growing startup ea

Ironically, there's a company called Yapp ( https://www.yapp.us/ ) that's one of the biggest users of Ember.js that I know of. Was super confused when I saw the title...
