Author here. What do you do with a project you haven't worked on in months? I don't know if I'll ever "finish" this, but it's an interesting project regardless, so I'm putting it up anyway. There aren't many open-source web applications/API

I don't know how the grandparent does it, but I had a period where I only billed 1 week a month. The key was to cut expenses. Dont buy a house, move somewhere small, ditch the cell for google voice, only one car, etc.

A PM can often estimate delivery timetables by analyzing historical lead time. For example, if it normally takes 10 days for a 2-star card to move from Next Up to LaunchPad, then you can guess when it will get shipped. Pad it a little, and

The idea is that once you define "apply" and its like, you don't have to write function () { return; } inline any more. You just use library-level functions and partially apply them. These techniques reduce the number of anonymous functions

You usually don't have to think about schema. This is the exception, but there are quite a few things you CAN represent with a nested document. You usually just make an object in whatever format your app wants, save it, and you can write qu

Just run 2 removes. Delete the post, then delete all comments with that post id.

Exactly, I just updated the post with examples of why slice and elemMatch don't work.
225.
by embwbam 15y ago
I should have addressed $slice. Yes, it lets you get a subset of comments, but it doesn't let you get the subset matched by your query. For example with this document: { "_id" : "one", "comments" : [ { "name" : "a", "asdf" : "1" }, { "name"

Yes, and I need another text editor :) No, seriously, for something as integral to what I do so many hours every day, I don't mind people continuing to innovate. Getting an editor or a management tool to fit you perfectly is pretty hard, a

Traffic spikes heavily in the evenings, when people are watching TV. You're still right, but the point isn't necessarily that we're currently scaled out, but that I think we could with this setup. We've since added several app servers, and

Personally, I'd much prefer to have my compiled JavaScript have the same line numbers as the source. I think readability of the compiled js is great and all, but correct line numbers would be awesome OTOH, string typing will greatly reduce

Know what would be awesome? If you could use the monad syntax to clean up async, cb-passing code. I've been learning a lot of Haskell lately too, and I like to think of the monads as returning a set of instructions with side effects to be e

You could set this up today with something like keyboard maestro. http://www.keyboardmaestro.com/main/ - just remap the keys. You could create 9 spaces, only use top/left/down/right, and map the arrow stroke to the command to jump to a sp
