I hesitate to rely on being able to rent a car to go to my cottage in the country on the weekend, because everyone else will be doing the very same thing at the same time. The possibility that I show up for my rental and there isn't on

I was looking for a good book about Node.js to supplement the random web tutorials I've found. But the only review on Amazon points out that this book does not cover Express 4. Too bad.

I agree. I think the difference is the sequence you do it in. For me, it is so much easier to get the code and look at it and step through it, THEN read the documentation. This approach helps me to focus on the parts that are unfamiliar, wh

I'm not the one advocating "stealing" by defeating the paywall here! I'm suggesting NOT trying to gain unauthorized access. As is usually the case, there are plenty of alternate sources for this information, which derive

I said this here recently, but I think it bears repeating: When I attended the University of California at Berkeley in the fun 1960's, there was no tuition for in-state students. Zero. There were 27,000 students at that time just at th

English must be pretty damn hard, too. When I studied conversational Mandarin a few years ago, it gave me a real sympathy for native Chinese speakers learning English. Basically, in Mandarin, there are no verb tenses or cases or persons. I

Anecdotaly, I recently moved home to San Francisco from Charlotte, NC. The dominant employers in Charlotte are the big banks, and there aren't a lot of major tech companies there. I was surprised to find that the pay scale -- contract

Try having an apostrophe in your last name. O'Brien, O'Keefe, O'Dell and my fave O'Charley's. It is really simple to accommodate this in software and databases, but the problem is getting worse and worse. The pharma

One of the issues I have is with this style of interviewing, period. This has no relation to the way I actually work. I don't write production-quality enterprise application software at a whiteboard in front of a group of judges. I don

It made me feel so much better, reading this. I thought it was some kind of personal failing that I can't keep up with all the changes. I definitely feel the hot breath of the steamroller, but in a way I'm enjoying the ride.
