Dismissing things that don't make sense probably isn't a good idea. Some of the most interesting things I've learned have been from working hard to discuss and understand something that didn't make sense to me at the tim

It's not just Italy. Places outside of Silicon Valley, within the USA have the same outlook. Personally, I think this 'failure as a badge of wisdom' is one of the 'secret' ingredients for the 'Silicon Valley&#x

Oh please. What's the best way to learn a new programming language? Writing code in it. What problem(s) should you solve? Well, there's the crappy foo-bar thing that would be awesome to solve... That's a WIN for both sides of

I think part of the reason is that the story is being positioned incorrectly. Yahoo owns 24% of Alibaba, so it's not China vs. Silicon Valley, or any such nonsense. It's definitely news worthy that they're going to IPO here i

Still digesting this, but it doesn't pass the smell test. There are too many assumptions that are just plain... wrong. For example: There seems to be an implicit assumption that all of the REST endpoints are just maps to CRUD operation

That has not stopped them from making it available on the iPad... It works just fine, you just have to use the browser to buy new things.

It's interesting how different perspectives work: > The gaming aspect of this will make it a winner. OUYA's big problem is that it didn't do streaming and was a bit clunky. Amazon has a big game library and just needs cont

You're kinda all over the place trying to defend MongoDB... So, what is your stake in it? You like it? You have a lot of customers on it and you want to validate your decision? I'm just curious, because by my tastes, MongoDB is a

"Quite the contrary. I've had abundant experiences with both event-based models (which hardly started with Node!) in several paradigms (GUI, server, network) and models like Erlang, Go, and Haskell. It is no contest. The latter is

I have a hard time 'listening' to these rants about how hard it is to reason about asynchronous code. It's NOT hard, it's DIFFERENT. This isn't some new Node-Sauce. The idea of an event-loop asychronous programming

Personally, I think using NPM is more idiomatic; Both Grunt and NPM are third-party tools, however NPM is FAR more pervasive with Node than grunt is. Essentially, if you write Node, you use NPM. Not so with grunt.
