   TextMate 2 came out a while ago. It changed its name to "Sublime Text 2" and it is awesome.

   Ah. If your target is people who aren't going to be reading docs, I don't think any DB is really preferable. :) Any more details about the project, or is it under wraps?

   Good article. A few things: Use "if" and "present?" instead of "unless" and "blank?". It's much easier to parse mentally, especially for people who didn't write the code. :) You don't need to use "self" to access latitude, longitude, updat

   Give PostgreSQL a shot if you're still considering databases.

   There's a few National Institute of Health studies that back the calories in vs calories out argument. Keep your calorie intake below your BMR (basal metabolic rate) + what you burn during the day if you want to lose weight. Very simple.

   I also see it "rebuilding font cache" on every fresh start. Is anyone else seeing that? Very annoying.

   Is all this stuff supported in modern browsers? It would be great if it showed browser compatibility for whichever one is selected.

   You might only need 1 in 10,000 ad views to result in a click to make money. It entirely depends upon what you're trying to get them to do/buy/sign up for on your site.

   The point is that it's not a good thing for him for that scenario to unfold.

    If you're having serious issues debugging Rails apps (or any app built on a major web framework), you are doing things horribly wrong . If you're just quasi-trolling/shitposting, please go back to Reddit.

    Cool. Didn't know that. Thanks.

    Twitter's frontend is still all Ruby/Rails. The Ruby -> Java claim is common, but incorrect. (Source: I know multiple engineers in SF who work there.) A lot of their backend stuff is now Java, though.

    Not sure about the Python ones, but the Ruby read/write file examples aren't quite fully done/correct here: # Equivalent of file_put_contents() in PHP # This could also be used for appending if the correct mode is specified. File.op

    FizzBuzz is great. I can stop 50% of interviews after asking it. Amazing timesaver. It's also extremely depressing.

    Congratulations. You're better than 50% of the programmers I interview. Want a job in SF?

    (For the record, I'm not talking about Katherine's business; I'm talking about Stripe.) I'm not disputing that, and I totally agree with your points, however unrelated to my questions they are. I'm not even going to use Stripe (as I have no

    XFS rules at handling lots of little files. It also has a ridiculously high "files per directory" limit. Something like Redis might've been sweet, too, but would require you to hold all that data in ram.

    We are working hard to make Stripe available outside the United States. What does this even mean? You've been saying this for a long time now. Is there really no other status update besides this? Why not be a bit more transparent

    Serious question: If Oracle wins their lawsuit and the court rules that APIs are indeed patentable, what prevents the ReactOS team from being sued into oblivion by Microsoft?

    http://arpnetworks.com/ is ballin'. I've been using them for a few months now. Very fast upstreams. They're only on the west coast of the USA, though. They have a $10 option.

    I guess you've never tried to focus fire/snipe banelings that are part of a zerg army moving towards your marine bio force. Accurate clicking is very Starcrafty.

    Ruby is as slow as PHP (see: Debian Language Shootout), and Rails is even worse because you're operating at a ridiculous stack depth. MRI and YARV are horrible at doing GC on deep stacks.

    Can someone explain what is happening in this example? I'm learning Haskell right now and this makes no sense.

    I'd take the graduate at 100k/yr if he had awesome side projects that show hustle/autodidactism rather than the experienced developer at any pricepoint.
