Worked with one big Indian company here in Malaysia last time and I see intimidation as common means of dealing with employees. Unfortunately, it doesn't really work well here, since most of people have a lot of choices moving around.

Yup there is, especially for something niche. One that I can think of is "Selenium 2 WebDriver Basics With Java". The the topic is niche, and the course seems comprehensive. And for the price tag, it somehow never gets to the disc

I think that will depend on the country you are working on. I work in Malaysia, and by that age, you will have hard time finding work as a developer, since people are expecting you to start manage other people after a certain age. The econo

Works fine for me in Chrome. Have you tried disabling the plugins or Incognito mode?

What about using JSP? It's somewhat Java and doesn't require Java on the front end(which is the source of most security problem). On the server side, you have to look for the vulnerability of the web container that you are using.

This is awesome! Saves me from the trouble of writing the directives myself.

Well... I am from Malaysia. As long as you are not employed, not conducting any activities that earn money from locals (ie. consulting, etc), not employing anyone, you are not technically running a business/being employed. So you are n

I would suppose when you see a page from Amazon, there are numbers of the system that contributes to the page. Some with HTML, some with API. And as other commenter mentions, these are all generated by some backend system. Probably no one h

My team right now has around 30 members in the sprint. I've checked with some of the experienced Scrum master in my company, the ideal member is around 4 - 6 person. Even having 7th member's slow things down in his experience. And this is n

It never was a silver bullet to begin with. There is no way that unit testing could cover every ground. Granted, for what its worth, it is something that is reasonably cheap that you could run over and over again cheaply. Functional testing

This is one feature that Eclipse don't have since you have to refresh everytime there is changes outside the IDE. Every time someone says VS blows Eclipse I wonder what VS have that Eclipse don't. When I dabbled C# few years ago, I find the

Are you saying those c# devs who use C++ libs are okay but Java devs who use Java libs are lazy simply because they use Java? So a good programmer reinvent the wheel whenever he can?

There is MVC. Its just a concept, unlike those design patterns from GoF which are specific. Models are just data, View are just representations and Controllers are just endpoints. You can program your own way in your language, and if you ca

I think the point is there may come the times when there two frameworks that depends on different version of dependencies. It could be the Backbone-UI and something else. It would be okay if the consumer code is dependent on all the librari

Even without the "app store" model, the company in question could still prevent the access to the said application by court injunction. It is not to the stage yet now, and while you can say that Apple acted prematurely, it is a matter of ti

Care to specify at which point the author of the blog post misunderstand MongoDB? Its not pretty clear to me about that. Are you saying that one of the way he is using MongoDB is incorrect? If yes, what point did he say reflects that? His r

Other plumbers might give a shit. Besides, I enjoy analysis of programming languages, the good and the bad parts.

There is a quote from Bjarne Stroustrup saying along the same line... “There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses.” ― Bjarne Stroustrup, The C++ Programming Language: Special Edition

Lets say for someone who is new to PHP, how long does it normally takes to learn where the minefields are? Is there anyway to start on this? I know in JS there is Javascript The Good Part. Is there anything equivalent in PHP?

I'd like to know how much of his massive complaint "don't really matter". Programming language critic come up every now and then in HN, this is nothing new. If you got a point, why not refute it? Are you saying language design don't matter

Then again, why can't the author not post it on HIS blog? No less. Any old tired issues for you could be something new for someone else.

Do you have a project on the sides? Or at least, if you dont have a project yet, are you learning anything interesting so that you might have a future personal project? At the very least, you could also list things that you find interesting

by fadzlan 15y ago
You are right. But I think the point that the author makes is that pure(or almost pure) open source project will have only "interesting" contribution, where as by far what makes a programming language usable are those "unglamorous" fundamen

With that being said, it seems appalling that it is possible on Rumblefish side to claim copyright on bird songs, assuming that they have vetted the audio personally. Then again, should we not say that the algorithm that processes for cop

I believe he is simply just counting his experience while porting GIT to Java. No where did I find that he claims he's an expert. What he did was providing his experience on the trenches. In case if you are the expert, I would assume that h

I would say that is more of delaying, rather than smashing it outright.
