I tried doing this, but it felt like I wanted to make this setup happen. It just wasn't there for me. The idea is elegant and simple, but the reality is that having a laptop is just more efficient. One day, this might be the nomadic develop

You can brogram with different sexes, do it all the time. Being PC all the time is exhausting. The females that I pair with would laugh at this term and not take offense to it. In fact by saying, "Let's brogram" would indicate the equality

I think it is beyond IE6 now. I am seeing more and more projects that are "okay" with a degraded version of the site on a non-modern browser. Web developers cringe at shadows, and "non-boxy" effects, because we know the hoops we need to jum

In a lot of cases the cost of acquiring customers is high in the beginning. Thats a business scaling issue that you solve when you determine that you have a real business. The landing page trend is just for early adopters, I would venture a

Being a transplant from the Midwest myself, I would love to see a tech boom there. Great outdoor life, beautiful summers and nice people.

My point goes deeper - reddit hates RoR. Mention ruby and you will be trampled. The OP is seemingly negative on Ruby (which is cleared up through subsequent comments) and he gets trampled. When I say "this isn't reddit" I mean, there isn'

In other words, this isn't reddit.

It was an interesting recruiting idea, but it's out there now.

Optimize your query. It's unlikely to experience that bad of performance from your display logic. (unless you are trying to display millions of rows at once)

I would argue that programming is very accessible. All languages in use today can be obtained and learned for free, save for ones time. I would agree that these environments make programming easier and more approachable.

The idea of a graphical programming environment is interesting, but I have never seen one that is good. I used LabView in college and it was okay. I interact with another graphical programming environment in my current contract and I hate

You'll figure it out, don't worry about it too much. Sacrifices will happen, but you will adjust. There is no right or wrong way to do - regardless of the countless words of advice that you will hear from everyone. Congratulations, it's n

I recall another story about a girl who attended NYU and has a mountain of debt and can't find work. At the end of the article it stated her major, and it wasn't something that was marketable in today's economy. Which sounds slightly arroga

I hate to say it, but if you have been looking for work for a long time and turn down an offer.... You can't complain. There is a saying about beggars and choosers. I completely understand being in a job that I dislike, but a job that I dis

I've encountered this numerous times with charting data for others. I find a great top level view of some key data, but it flies over their head and it never gets used. This is probably our failure, not theirs. We can't expect our audienc

Agreed, if nothing else, kids motivate you. They represent something greater than yourself, which can cause you to work harder and be more determined. They also provide inate happiness and joy outside of your work life. You will be less r

That's what I do too. However, there are a lot of users who simply want to buy something. There are also a lot of users who are on Facebook all the time. It almost IS the internet to them.

I chose to go the other route which takes even longer. Load the XFBML version, and include the open graph meta tags. I did the same thing that you did, wrapped it all in a like_url helper.
