While the comments about being pythonic are valid, I think this looks fantastic and I'll take it for a spin around the block. Are you using this in your production environment already? In regards to the 'name' being a functio

The internet was a "bigger screen" of the lets-connect-two-computers-together breakthrough. Still mind blowing though. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. I'm a huge fan of side/top scroller shootemups (R-Type being u

All true. It will take years to materialise into commodities and I am patient. However, I think my kids will experience those as adults though, which will take a bit of the magic out. I guess what I'm saying is that my children will ta

Those of us who lived through those years have a priceless benefit of having witnessed technology history unfold in real time. We saw the evolution of technology beyond just a bigger screen size of slightly faster processor. We had actual l

It was a thing a good while back. In fact it was the first Application Server. Still around early 2000s it was one of the best ways to create web applications. And then it wasn't. What is interesting is that the Lucee ( http:/&#x

Interestingly I found ExtJs (3) when I was evaluating every single data grid component there was. I found theirs to be the best at the time (2009) and went all in to the framework. Someone mentioned a love/hate relationship and that&#x

I can believe that. I doubt anyone in the industry is so blind as to think this move would not anger people and hurt the long term.

They can keep running and developing on the old version they use. I think my synology uses ExtJs 3. As a user, I could not care less - still works....

I guess if we started talking about those who failed we'll never stop... For every one that makes it there are scores who didn't.

Sounds like this is just to spite Google. Moving from one beast (google) to another (apple) seems unreasonable.

Better than expected! I've never finger drummed anywhere and got immediate VISUAL feedback. Usually I get an aural feedback in the form of "STOP THAT TAPPING".

I started programming at an early age (41 now), but I did not create things at this scale (we didn't have HTML, Javascript or Python on the VIC20 but that is no excuse). To say I'm impressed is the understatement of the century. K

I find this question difficult. I write code, I design systems, I manage complexity and prevent complex from becoming complicated. I am CTO, I am developer, I am founder and Co founder. I am coffee maker too. When asked I usually say "

Two options that I can think of: 1. Experience: After a while doing what you're doing, you are an experienced developer/freelancer. You hit the ground running, you mentor, you contribute enough to justify your high day rate. 2. Go

Most people, I think, don't feel comfortable speaking to their phone when nobody is at the other side. Even if I, as an observer am not aware of that. I know I don't feel comfortable. Because I know nobody is there and i'm ta

Using voice interfaces (at least in a public setting) is going to end up like the Segway. Looks kinda cool on the brochure, but feels a bit daft actually doing it when out and about.

You can compile it to include only the components you actually use. I don't use stock semantic myself. I use the react port which is a separate project which uses just the CSS of the semantic library (and again can be compiled to inclu

semantics aside (hehe), you described the grid class of bootstrap, not semantic ui. In semantic its something like "ten wide column" or "four wide column" etc. I rarely use semantic for its grid though. Those are now eas

I cannot recommend Semantic UI enough, and in particular the React port of Semantic. Its a very complete, themable and quality piece of toolkit. After using it I could not understand why I've been using bootstrap before. http:/&#

You can let gov deal with minor national wide issues, and delegate the important stuff to the people (thresholds to be agreed upon in advance and when in doubt defer to the people). Anything local should be handled in the same way by local

Not necessarily on HN but on the internet as a whole, though this applies heavily on HN: Like a coin, every story has 3 sides. Hear them all before making judgement, and in general, opt for internalising judgement rather than publicising it

I'm not sure exceptional is the right word. I wouldn't even call it 'gifted'. Maybe its just being able to function better when the conditions are not ideal and the pressure is up, as opposed to when things are fine and

I totally agree with you. And although my two sons are too young to accurately observe this on them, I can tell you I fit the bill. I can manage on the 'fixed path', working in a company that has a plan sorted out, but I feel cons
