Some would argue that Flash's death was hastened by JavaScript, not the other way around. (And Steve, and..)

I only read through the article once, and fast, but it does seem to imply that night owl equals not enough sleep. That, and the amount of participants in the test seemed a bit too low for a true statistical overview. I'm a night owl, a

The irony is that most of Sony's income is generated through their insurance business.

I have zero trust in Bitcoin, and I can't really figure out why, except that it seems so utterly fragile. Like it's built on hopes and dreams - almost like a ponzi scheme, like someone else suggested. Sure, if you're feeling

I see your point. PayPal is a business partner in this setup, and they are shouldering a lot of risk on the developers behalf. I can understand not wanting to share something as intimate as a business/developement plan, but PayPal is w

Frameworks doesn't necessarily mean you're delivering a huge JS payload, but more to the point: How was that template sharing achieved? Would love some notes on the technical implementation.

Okay, I got to admit: That was awesome. Well thought out.

1. I don't want to dabble with templating on a server. It's annoying, and separates two layers that I don't want separated. 2. It needs to work offline, and for me to support that, I would have to double up on work, and maint

Why is it worse than using, say Objective-C to improve C? Genuinely curious here.

I haven't used it, but I've heard a lot of good things about the Closure compiler: https://developers.google.com/closure/compiler/ Seems like it scratches that particular itch.

I'm not saying the article is right either, since it is a rather bold claim. But it is just as one sided to write it off as stupidity, because JavaScript is dynamically typed - or whatever. I can't force anyone to like JavaScript,

I love every time an article like this appears. Everyone is immediately on the fence, bashing JavaScript furiously. Yet momentum doesn't appear to be declining? I'm a JavaScript developer mainly, with a background as a front-end o

You need a better class of client then! The persona you're describing are the intended audience of premium themes. They would probably never really get anywhere with their "new idea", if the barrier to entry was higher than $

Who says guys can't multitask? Also, autocorrect needs to die a slow, agonising death. Sorry, again with the violence.

If the colleague next to me starts using a thread mill with his standing desk, I'll shoot him in the face. With a nerf gun. Like the violent man I am. Don't need more distractions at the office, damn'it!

How is this not a bigger deal? This man is completely mind boggling. Is the corruption in the UK really this bad?

Probably wouldn't want to live in one during a strong 6+ earthquake, but they are pretty handy during a hurricane. If you can manage to make the roof stay put.

To expand a little on this: The region of Denmark from where I grew up has a lot of different dialects, all from within a very small area. A lot of Danish words resemble their English counterparts, and especially so when pronounced with a b

The Scandinavian languages and English have a lot in common. I believe they even share a common language stem. You can take any word in a sentence, and switch it out with an english word or vice versa. So some of the basics are already ther

When I was a kid, we lived regularly on a camping ground during the summer. There was an older couple with a beat-up bus they had converted - They drove happily through Europe with it, so I guess it's viable to some people!

I think he meant for the rest of the world. We only remember US presidents if they were killed or notoriously bad at their jobs - maybe except for F.D Roosevelt. (A bit tongue in cheek, but it also has some truth to it).

You still have to factor in that very same safety net. You'll lose a guaranteed income, from the state, by choosing the entrepreneurial route vs. unemployment. That's taking a pretty big risk for something that might never amount

I imagine that ones metabolism factors in as well. I was sick once, couldn't eat anything for 14 days due to large wounds in my mouth. I felt fine if you factored out the pain. Lost 8-10kg (I'm an athletic, not large person) and I

Risk free? My 5 years of paying off debt from a failed company says otherwise.
