Agreed. The average American will see the game, and immediately understand that it is a metaphor for an employee - employer relationship, and act accordingly. This tribe has no such social construct, so they assume that both the "emp

I agree with both of your points. I was also attempting to point out that large companies with sub par programmers also use specific frameworks as a crutch in order to put boxes around how much of a code base a particularly inept programme

edit: just realized this might have been a communication problem. I meant coders that have the resumes of programmers, but are specifically hired cheap because they aren't actually programmers, just people reaching for the salary. Th

yup, directly into directives, and it'll be a nightmare, because that style of software development is a horrible bane on the industry. But I don't think that disqualifies my post at all.

Angular is being adopted by a lot of enterprise-y / small business shops, specifically because it can be used (just like typical enterprise code) to have "coders" who don't know how to code, write software. What's t

Bittorrent sync is actually an amazing dropbox replacement, and actually has a number of really good privacy implementations built in from the start. I'd highly recommend it, if anyone sees this comment.

To quote either pragmatic programmer or the gang of four (I can't remember which), singletons make sense when, if the singleton doesn't exist, it doesn't change behavior through the application. So for example, setting up a

I don't buy it. Those articles just make it sound like any truly future craft needs to include a biome and fission reactor; in short, an aircraft carrier with Wisconsin fast plants. But sci-fi has been pointing us in this direction f
