As a twenty year old who left school (in late 2011) and is currently working for a startup, the article really struck a chord with me and I must admit that it is very accurate, particularly the section, "Startups have an ongoing interperson

I mentioned this to Mattt on Twitter but I don't think he saw it. There's a lot you can do at the debugger and recursiveDescription can be called on any UIView or UIView subclass. So if you set a breakpoint you can do something like:

Mattt is seriously a boss, and this is pretty sweet. Thanks for the example! *edit: typo.

I was hoping someone would fill in the details; it's been quite a while since I've dealt with anything like that. Thanks!

As a note to the author about separating the arrays instead of using a structure, it was probably an alignment issue? Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

It doesn't take the length/amount of characters to compare as an argument relying on the null terminator, meaning it's susceptible to a buffer overflow attack. Moral of the story, if you're going to use C strings, use the strn* variants.

Personally, I'd favor the language you're most comfortable with and has the best tools, frameworks, preexisting code, etc. for getting your project done. It's a trade off in both respects, but you can usually find a happy medium.

I'm not really comparing it to anything, just speaking from experience of having waited many hours waiting for C programs to compile in the past.

This is pretty neat, though I found myself doing similar things in small test files when I was first learning C and printing the results. C compile times suck, but with like a 10 line program or so to toy with a language semantic, it was pr

I'm really glad that Backbone has helped you become a better programmer; that's great! But it's worth nothing that this is really a trickle down effect from the creators and maintainers of Backbone making use of great design patterns and us

Not a big company, but Northeastern University's CS department uses it in their intro course to computer programming. The staff there is all about PL research and I believe they use it pretty extensively in that regard. I spent a semester t

I might be a part of the minority, but generally I would rather give up my (Facebook|Twitter|GitHub) account than create a new account, for a few reasons. 1. My email is more important. I generally don't want you to have it if I feel like y

I don't have any definitive advice for you, but I'm curious where you are? I'm also in Central Jersey right on the coast!

I agree, plus it just sets a tone and atmosphere I don't want to work in. Unfortunately, my present employer requires I wear a collared shirt and dress shoes, which I hate. I am much more productive when I can wear whatever I want. It shows

What are your thoughts on generating CSS animations using Ruby?

I'll have to agree with this. As a programmer, I'm not particularly interested in wearing a suit and tie while working so by principle I wouldn't wear it to an interview. It really depends on the company, though. If while talking with the c

Indeed. Plus I think well-designed Objective-C is some of the prettiest code out there. Though I've been using it for a few years now almost exclusively (for the most part) so maybe I am a bit biased.
