Sounds a lot like the various AdSense horror stories. A recent one: http://groups.google.com/group/android-discuss/browse_thread...

Oh no, have they started to embed scribd on web-pages. I absolutely hate scribd. Worst thing to hit the internet since that guy crying about Brittney Spears on youtube.

I must be missing something. Can't you just put your city's name in with your other search terms when using a normal app store? What does this add over that?

I have found the best non-PayPal solution to be iTransact ( http://www.itransact.com/marketing/referral/S33oOO ). They combine the gateway and the merchant account, and have lower fees than their competitors.

As a veteran developer, I too was hit by RSI, and strongly urge you to first start using speech recognition for dictating all of your e-mail messages, code comments, documentation, etc.

I wonder if this book has any novel information that isn't available in the dozens of other books on the subject, or in the one I read fifteen years ago that covered all the examples in the Forbes article. Although I've found it occasionall

I tried ZF a while back, but don't recall how it would resolve this issue. Can you be specific?

All true. I've bounced back and forth. On a previous project, there was no need for stepping through the code, so header() trumped. My current project has benefitted greatly from the IDE, so I'm using a session var (and hoping the user r

The privacy page is just an example. Your scenario replaces it with a confirmation page. So the problem still stands: How do you go to the ?page=contact-submit page? Do you use header()? Is that the canonical way?

I agree with all that, but how do you solve the problem I posed initially?

by jsteele 17y ago
It's not dictating the code architecture -- it's one of many factors to consider Naturally I'm using a session variable. But the URL mismatch remains.

Thanks for the reply. How does an exit() after header() help? It still causes a discontinuity in an IDE.

That example of coding an elfLikesMe attribute for 150 monster types, why to code it at all? My first hunch would be to use SQL table for monster attributes, then adding new attribute would be equivalent to adding a new SQL field, or table?

You should definitely try fasting (no food, water only). After a couple of days there should be visible results (You will feel Yourself different). Another possible advice is to limit carbohydrates (partually replacing them with fats). Ther

I've also seen too many blog posts trumpeting the amazing ability to do something-or-other in three lines of Ruby -- one or two of which are loading some library that does all the work. Not impressed. It's nice that you can get something do

"Media is not the key. In fact, we can't change the media/entertainment world, but change perception of things in our society." Where do you think "perception of things in our society" comes from?

Exactly. And I find it lazy to use such loaded terms to denigrate an argument one doesn't agree with instead of confronting its (lack of) merits. Obnoxious != wrong. Actually, I find it strange that the initial commenter only suspects tha
