Yeah, he's essentially saying PHP is familiar and popular because it's familiar and popular.

I loved how he explained the strange attracting/repelling nature of carbon and oxygen as a ball rolling uphill to get to a hole. So simple yet so brilliant.

You can really tell how much he loves the subject matter. Get the feeling he could just keep talking about it all day if you let him. I'd let him.

I think the percents are merely anecdotal and the main point is to keep an open mind. Don't assume you are always right.

The mention of Pivotal's support actually improved my outlook on this whole thing. It doesn't sound like they are outsourcing the code, it sounds like they are being mentored, and that Pivotal thinks this crazy thing could work.

Good point. I'd like to know if most of the people experiencing this problem are actually experiencing lost calls/signal or just seeing fewer bars.

I've been meaning to read Web Design for Developers myself and was going to recommend it as well. I've heard good things.

It is nice to finally see microformats being used for something so mainstream.

Someone needs to update Nigeria's Wikipedia page to list spam as its major export.

Wouldn't this already be an issue with the Public folder?

Actually, I got the impression that no public link was available at all unless you chose to create it.

Watching entire shows while standing up, holding an antenna: priceless. (Didn't feel like coming up with the first part of the cliche)

Do what I did, find a CPA that you can talk to in person. They can tell you what your options are and lay things out for you step by step. Even file the paperwork for you to get incorporated. Don't try to figure it all out on your own. The

I think it is advocating something concrete: Drop the separate routing layer. Then it gives two concrete examples of how to handle urls: Sinatra-style and HTTP-style methods in the controller. I think the biggest problem in the article is i

I attended (but sadly, never graduated) the University of Central Florida in the US as a Computer Engineering major and the courses were as you described: Engineering + Math + Computer Science.

If it wasn't for his boosterism, we'd probably still be writing HTML for specific browsers and versions.

If you strap it to your back, not strap yourself into it. In other words, you can walk around with it.

I never buy video with DRM, but I love Netflix's streaming service. I think the DRM backlash is getting so rabid that people are blinded to an actual, legitimate use for it, which I think in Netflix's case it is.

You have every right to pull out of Facebook if you disagree with what they're doing, but thinking it has to conform to what your vision of what the web's "basic paradigm" is is just silly. Blogging and commenting changed things before this

Right. And the whole point of the article is that using any modern editor, you can easily scan to find an id or class without resorting to one-liners, which do make the attributes harder to read/write/debug/diff.
