`this` in Javascript is an anti-pattern and so is this article... I wish classes didn't make into ES6, object-oriented programming is a waste of time.

Uh if you look at what is happening today, OBVIOUSLY Javascript was 20 years ahead of its time. You're welcome.

I have my days where literally ZERO gets done. On days like that, if I can put together a PR with two lines of code, it's a win. However, most days, probably 4.5 out of 5 on average, I am super productive, taking very few breaks aside

What I like to do is have a hot bath and then 30 minutes in take a freezing cold shower for about 10 minutes then get back in the bath for 30 minutes, followed by another freezing cold 10 minute shower. If you think you can't do a free

Honestly, the DM should have stopped it, but I wouldn't want to play with you either. Total dick move. You need to go find a safe space to cry in.

My perspective may be skewed, I work for a lot of large companies. So take note of that. But in my experience, companies don't care about you, don't owe you anything and would drop you like a bad habbit tomorrow if they didn'

Think of a web application. Anything, Trello, Twitter, Harvest, Facebook. Re-build said web application in your own image. Pretend you are going to release it to the public even if you aren't. Develop everything a public app would need

It helps to be obsessive. Program in your spare time. Don't be one of these people that just learns what they need to know to do their job and then stops learning. I've been programming professionally for 6 years and I'm lear

1) Choosing JavaScript for a Math heavy project would likely be a mistake. There are plenty of other examples of picking the wrong language for the wrong job. That's where this statement falls apart. 2) Depending on how you bring them

I have seen projects that were all but dead from technical debt, that management simply refused to believe were dead. I once worked on a system that was so messed up that fixing any bug would create 2 more. At one point, the entire team was

The valuable part of this article is to limit a startup idea to one month of initial effort. And don't continue the effort unless after a month you can gain some sort of useful validation that there is a market for your idea. This also

JSX is awesome. It's just JavaScript, you can do whatever you want... return ( <Foo> { selected ? <Bar /> : null } </Foo> ); or let children = []; if (selected) children.push(<Bar />); if

The author says they don't like purity and immutability, because it limits their ability to "get stuff done". But in the long run you get many benefits, whether you have 1000 developers or one. Namely that a whole class of bu

This isn't unique to open source software development. Anytime you're a public figure or a public company or otherwise working in some highly visible capacity, there are going to be haters in the building. It doesn't matter w

The author should try React and Redux. I've used many different UI frameworks/libs over the years: jQuery, Backbone, Angular, etc I don't claim that React is the end all be all, it has a few trade-offs. The first thing that i

As a software developer, I can't say I really care about the Mac Pro. It's not to say that I don't care about performance, I have a MacBook Pro bought by my work that's about 5 months old and it's great. But honestl

I was never a fan of async/await in C#, I just never found it that useful. I've seen examples of it in JavaScript and the author is always like, "Look at what you normally have to write and now look at what you COULD write wi

That's a great idea. He did break the law, but he alerted this country to things that we need to be aware of. I fully support a pardon for him and will sign it.

I don't understand the notion that as a mobile developer you have to do the front end and the backend... I just wrote the back-end for an iOS app, I had nothing to do with the front-end and the sole front-end developer had nothing to d
