This is article actually has very little to do with any particular programming language or language comparisons. I like how it logically builds up to each of its conclusions which summed up are the following: 1. Variables should not be allo

That sounds really unorganized to me at least, I mean the linux kernel is large and there's only one guy at the end of the day merging all that stuff. I would think that in larger projects a better practice would be a distributed hiera

I think, for everyone it probably depends a lot on what each of us build as a programmer, because although most programming languages are "general purpose" they have communities and toolchains that tend to be more heavily speciali

Ok this is nice. Of course, if you're just rebasing before reviewing and merging the PR into master it makes this pointless. Odd that they never mention this in the post, I was under the assumption that rebasing before creating the PR

hmm, if we called them what they are we'd call them "type wrapper functions" and talk about "type wrapper function chains", monads carries zero metaphorical/associative meaning. I think thats the problem with t

I don't see why they don't just teach C, x86, and Haskell everywhere. If you know the concepts behind these, you can quickly grok any other programming language. Also I never got the whole hype behind OOP. IMHO its self explanator

Nothing convinces more than something you've done :) So I would suggest just putting together your github and list of projects you've done, this should be a list of just the very best of the best, if its only one thing that can be

I think the stdlib is not the way to go. Give me an example of any ecosystem where the standard library is the defacto best solution? But would agree that the only thing Rust might need are officially supported crates, while keeping the lan

I feel like this is the moment that so many devs who have observed rust over the past couple of years have been waiting for. I for one am looking forward to diving in.

Here's some ideas I had after looking at this wonder what you think? 1. if you added a login + uploads and this could be used as a super simple alternative to document sharing. 2. Add page versioning and this could work as a wiki. 3. A

yea, I'd second the xss, since using rails one sanitize call should be enough.

Yes, content is one of the most annoying problems, and there's no technical reason it has to be. You can always torrent a film in just about any language and get high quality as soon as the film hits the stores in the country of origin

I disagree with almost every word in this essay. So lets get started. "Imagine you are a newcomer to Javascript development these days. Which librairies should you pick to get started?" Who cares. What's stopping anyone from

I think this would be possible, but then again it would also mean you the employee would have to setup your own company to be able to work remotely for another one, and although the UG cost only 1 euro to start, you need to set aside 25% of

From my perspective "living in germany" it would be very unattractive unless I were to earn substantially large sums. I would never be eligible for german retirement, would have to purchase the more expensive private ensurance, an

How does github do it then? Wouldn't said company need to be registered in the country where the employee lived full-time and worked? Otherwise how are taxes, insurance, healthcare, etc going to be handled?

by jfaucett 12y ago
The author is forgetting that this is very unattractive for remote developers. Maybe not so bad if you live in a country without decent health insurance and retirement, but for others you'd lose these benefits by becoming a contractor.

"Your post contains more xenophobia than the article" This statement seems completely unfounded to me. I feel the OP makes valid points, any professional developer that delivers high quality work is not going to be cheap. If you w

In my understanding, a webapp is essentially a "desktop-like" application for the browser, i.e. something like gmail or an online paint program, something that is interaction driven, will probably use websockets for giving a realt

I think it has to do with the way the developer approaches the problem, their background, and their preferences. Personally I'm with you, I enjoy a small, isolated, component based approach where each component follows the unix philoso

yes absolutely agree. Go is better than plain C, but people aren't using it for things C is used for which I think makes a big difference. When it comes to developing software applications, the really weak type system of Go is frankly

I think the problem is that no one realizes the internet we grew up with and loved is changing fundamentally and we can't be passivist users of the medium anymore. If you are you're basically saying you're okay with a future
