That's different... That's just the standard UX of their mobile autocomplete. It's the same on iOS (I type "f" and it autofills a URL - next letter I type is appended to the end of that URL, slash and all). This is

Facebook is different than MySpace. Entire families, including grandparents, weren't on MySpace. Facebook has gotten very close to achieving their goal of "Becoming the Internet" for many 40 .

You'd probably have to look into whether TLDs count toward copyright, e.g. if company ABCXYZ (TM) could claim against abc.xyz. The reallllly important thing is that you're not calling your chat app TinyChat, but Tiny. If you are c

Someone who has made a lot of money using one-off tactics to make a lot more money? Why would they do that!

100% agree with you. I don't agree with the comment you replied to, but it's _not_ a good sign that they stole another project's logo. https://tent.io/

If it were opt-in, I would absolutely opt-into it. I want the companies who make products I use/consume to succeed - that's why I never install ad-block. I watch tons of shows on YouTube and niche video sites, and I know the ads a

Are there places I can find lists of cons/events/meetups? Meetup.com is the only one I know of.

That's sort of an oxymoron. I'd say that, unfortunately, 99% of colleges don't have any kind of server-side JavaScript class. The closest that I can get to is a class that's half HTML+CSS and half WordPress. All other si

I'm in a somewhat similar position. I started as a web designer, but then moved my interest toward web development almost entirely. I know where you're coming from, and it can be frustrating. Everybody, and I mean _everybody_, has

I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't consider that info. It's definitely not enough for most people to sign up on. 99% of people would just close the tab and move on. That said, there's no information once you log in, ei

I really like this, and agree with it wholeheartedly. I'm a Junior at a decent school as a design major, even though I like development more. I tried to take a Comp Sci. course last semester, but I knew everything that was going to be

As theunamedguy said, open-source is pretty cool. If you contribute in a significant way to a couple major projects (programming languages, like Python or Ruby, major platforms like Rails, Sinatra, Node, io.js, major libraries like Undersco

It's a pretty big stretch to call your application a "Reddit for podcasts" when you only have an iOS application. The biggest part of Reddit is its web interface (and associated plugins), and your app doesn't attempt tha

The Dunning-Kruger effect pretty much sums up myself. I feel like I have a firm grasp on the structure and syntax of JS, but now I'm questioning whether I really do. I always feel awful, as I can't really implement anything, and a

Hey there, really, really great article! It really spoke to me. I've got a small question for you, though: I'm in the Cliff of Confusion, but I have a serious problem. I can't even build a program. I know syntax, structure, e

I don't think it's right for you to call what he said crap without backing it up with any evidence. Node.js is essentially the modern poster child of modularity. JavaScript doesn't have inherent modularity--but the devs of No

Just a quick list: 1. You use the name "snapshots" in the header, yet call it a Snap everywhere else. 2. You don't outright define what a Snap is anywhere on the page. I have to infer what it is from the screenshots and speci

Thanks for this. I think this is a large part of my problem. I don't know how to do fundamental things, such as set up an index route with Express, or how to use a templating engine with that to display dynamic text, or how to use a da

I agree with this, but I do think there must be something that we're missing. Many, many skilled developers are saying "just go out there and build." The problem is we don't know how to build. I think there might be an i

Absolutely agree with this. There are hundreds of tutorials on how to write JavaScript, use the for loop, use if else statements, and so on. But not very many that I have found actually show how to use those to build a real program, explain
