I don't use any of this software, I'm just responding to parent's question. But hopefully some GNOME developers are listening.

One advantage is debugging failures. If the test framework only knows that a test passed or failed, but not why, then you don't get to know why either, because it can't tell you. For instance, many test runners will show you the expected an

I personally wouldn't cite margins as the biggest visual flaw, but rather alignment in general, followed by contrast. The very first screenshot on the page is a very awkward dialog: http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.2/figures/g

It reduces complexity by making semantics that many programmers expect a part of the syntax. For instance, methods always being bound to their instance (=>). To use one striking example, it turns this: class Widget render: =

ORM isn't a pattern. Most people complaining about ORM libraries are complaining about Active Record. I thus automatically assume anyone making this claim is misinformed, and roll my eyes. Active Record is a pattern. Ruby's ActiveRecord and

...which you can do simply by posting a link anywhere. Edit: I guess it would be more helpful to explain why for those not familiar with XSS. If all it takes it a specially crafted URL to your site to exploit it, your site is toast. The sec

Seems likely that it's due to a lack of escaping in a custom templating layer. I wonder if it could be used to perform a XSS attack?

It might be convenient to implement s.print(n) as shorthand for s.take(n).print(). :)

And if you'd rather cowboy up some code than stick with the abstractions your team is already using, I'd be glad you left the project. I'm not defending these exact examples or anything, but come on. Any kid out of school can toss some code

Putting build artifacts in source control does seem a bit strange. Nevertheless, it's very common practice with JavaScript libraries.

Which, I think, is not a huge deal with Knockout, just a difference. In our case we're using it for widgets included on other people's sites, so it's not a conventional web "application" with "pages" (I don't think we'd use the routing bits

This looks fun. We (at BigDoor) have built some of these same pieces using Knockout ( http://knockoutjs.com/ ) as a starting point. I'll be trying this out for comparison in some prototypes for sure.

I, too, thought this was a pretty weak claim. People can resize their browser windows to whatever dimensions they want; does that mean using any kind of grid or rhythm on the web is hopeless? Of course not.

My strategy is to pad the real answer with the same two words for each question. For example, "purple 12345 banana", "purple Smith banana", etc. Not perfect, but it should defeat even the best would-be guessers.

I'm thinking Apple could eventually use iMessages + FaceTime to dig into Skype's userbase. Especially if they make good on their "open protocol" promise, which would bring clients to other platforms pretty quickly.

Have they removed any, or simply not approved them in the first place? (Honest question.) It would be pretty unexpected for them to be retroactively banned.

Right, because with PuTTY on your Linux box, you don't need a virtual keyboard on the screen. Most of the complexity is off-screen. Touch devices don't have that luxury. Now imagine PuTTY with a virtual keyboard built in and you start to se

Ha, I just started working on the same exact project a few weeks ago. Great minds think alike, I guess. I'm taking a different approach, so I'll still launch it to see what people think. I brought up this idea in a "gamification of software

It's much easier to dedicate all your time and respond to every issue when it's what's paying the bills. FOSS support and longevity are terrible, and this is from someone who maintains a dozen such projects.

The color matching is easy. It's not using the same fonts, and pretty obviously stretching the text to take up the approximate amount of line space - also easy. Don't be too quick to judge! :)

This may not be real/actual work enough for you (it's still an example), and it's not exactly the same as this BDD workflow, but this brief screencast still may be of some interest to some folks: http://blog.extracheese.org/2010/01/string-
