I've just started working with Joomla in the last few days. The only redeeming factor with it is that you can install it anywhere (since PHP is so prevalent). I wanted to install Django-CMS, but guess what: the host I have to work with

Gets much worse than that, for anyone having shipped AAA games on multiple consoles: 1) Ubershader program files (#ifdef's pepper generously everywhere) 2) Each console has it's own quirks and gotchas that you try to abstract 3) C

Looks like that Jeremy guy is gonna have some splainin' to do in his next job interview. Pretty sure other startups won't want to touch him with a 10' pole, regardless of the veracity of the allegations made.

I might be wrong, but I doubt that's how SpaceX started... But of course, they are not in the same exact business. SpaceX is disrupting the already established space launch business, whereas DIS is in a completely new field in itself.

"...though iOS development continues to need access to an OS X machine..." Now if MS could do the same thing they did with Ubuntu and add native support for OSX, I'd be in heaven.

I made a big push at some point to start using Powershell instead of the horrible .bat files I had written at some point (and their arcane unreadable commands). But Powershell's syntax, convoluted names and the unreadable code we had t
