Why learn from the guy who made the mistakes when you can learn from the guy who didn't?

Don't see this as me putting you down. I just wish people started working on the next generation of group chat (which is a HUGE field) rather than just piling more of the same on top of old stuff.

I don't want IRC. I want HipChat (inline images, ability to directly upload & share media, persistence, good searching, integrated video, HTTP API) but with non-shit native clients. IRC is a fucking dinosaur, I feel something like this

I think the noidea idea was quite good, but quite possibly what struck me as the worst thing about it was the philosophy it implied "oh you don't need an idea to be an entrepreneur, just start a company anywayy!lol". I know that's not the w

I used emacs every day for 2 years. Then I switched to Sublime Text.

by kami8845 14y ago
Seems similar to Sublime Text 2. Except for the part where you're stuck trying to decipher existing Emacs Lisp. With Python I find I can express what I'm trying to do without too much thought.

By virtue of the internet I have access to information on how other people in the Python community use the various tools provided by it. Thus I am able to talk in bigger scope than just merely myself. You should give the internet a try. Som

by kami8845 14y ago
Yeah but programmers are generally not bound to a codebase for life. A friend of mine who works at Google says that he generally works on projects in the "do it new and figure out what it needs to do" phase, while there's other engineers at

by kami8845 14y ago
I find this argument smells of rationalisation to me: You admit yourself that building new stuff is much more fun. Say making an old codebase is "just as rewarding" but in order to actually understand all the legacy you need to put in 2x (o
