Solid advice. Split the problem into many smaller problems and start working. One thing to keep in mind though, TODO lists can give an illusion of progress and accomplishment[1]. That is assuming you split up the problem and create a TODO l

Yes, just quoting the docs: "Facades provide a "static" interface to classes that are available in the application's IoC container." Your comment on Whoops rings a bit hollow because it was only added a few weeks ag

I use Symfony 2 a lot myself and more recently Laravel 4. While they are definitely solid frameworks I find that the Java-esque level for abstraction in the code base makes debugging a big pain at times. Especially in Laravel 4 which is mos

Sure but the HKSAR are not known for doing any hacking and this was between the HKSAR and the USA.

It's the HKSAR government, not the Chinese government (NPC). It's important to note that they are quite different.

Perhaps rather than criticizing the demo negatively, which I see no reason to do, he/she could rather have initiated a discussion about where things like this belong in modern web development. Is this use of JavaScript just going to be

Thanks for the feedback. My US geography isn't great. I've fixed it in the charts and spreadsheet and will keep note of it if I ever do this again.

Sorry about that. I should have added some auto scaling. I just made them big so they are clear but without realizing the lack of a horizontal scroll bar.

Is it acceptable for a web developer to not be competent all parts of the stack nowadays? Be competent in all parts and specialize in some areas. Also, are points 6 and 7 really a part of the "full stack"?

I have only just started learning the details of JavaScript. While reading JavaScript: The Good Parts I found myself asking the question what the difference between a module and a closure is. As far as I can tell they are the same thing. Is

I'd be curious to see any large Angularjs apps. Do you know any? How big should single page apps be allowed to be? Is there a clear use case for this to be sensible? This is not a loaded question in case you or someone mistakes it for such.

Are we honestly that concerned with formality in this industry? I'd be more concerned with the contents and less with how formal they are. And what is wrong with using emoteicons in personal blog posts? I don't necessarily agree with slaggi

Not sure if this is the reason but I think OS development was just much more exciting back then and more people were into it. Now people focus a lot more on the web. Some people left OpenBSD and forked it to make Bitrig, not sure how much t

We used Symfony 2 on projects previously. I find that it makes simple things hard to do and it is too verbose. Laravel 4 uses many of the Symfony 2 components but makes nice facades that you can call as static methods so you never have to w

I've seen a few people doing it. The API is quite stable since the end of last year or so I've heard. I didn't start using it until recently and I haven't encountered any bugs and whenever I gear up to do a pull request someone else has alr

The "cool kids" in PHP are using Laravel 4. It's a well made framework. I'm doing a REST API in it at work and the lack of mind share and docs is probably the worst part about it (it's still in beta to be fair). Most of the time I ended up

Why do you think it is a lot better off than Hungary? There's not a very big difference between them in terms of human development.

I believe the SublimeCodeIntel plugin will give you the alt+click functionality. It says so in the documentation at least: https://github.com/Kronuz/SublimeCodeIntel - I haven't tried it though.
