Back when I used to work for other people, I would always start over as a developer when I took a new position. The pay is about the same for a senior developer to a lead and it is also about the same as pure tech management, but the headac

Yeah, my step-brother actually was almost taking by one of those scams on Skype, I was like how could you fall for that fortunately he came to talk to me before he sent her/them any money but the fact that he thought she was real up until t

Yes many people make that leap after a first iteration, but once you do the pattern becomes very clear and very powerful. Looking at your back-end as a platform for all future clients really helps as well.

Is this the "right" way to be doing this? This is a subjective question and there is a lot of dogma surrounding the question. I tend to answer my questions with dollars as in are the dollars there to chase that market and would the money

You would have saved a lot of time and frustration by building the single page app first and putting analytics on it to see how many non-JavaScript clients you where getting (most are surprised at how few the number is) and then if the numb

I have done development on Apple systems since the old OS7 and in my experience it has always been a pain. Back then they did not have an IDE nor did they provide a compiler if you wanted to develop for Mac you had to pick up Code Warrior.

At the very best, adding a UI element should somehow automatically build out the declaration in the interface, synthesize it and do whatever the hell that blue line connector does. I remember in MS Visual J++ you could double click on a U

As usual this could be a good law, but it is so poorly written that it can be used for anything. The stated intent of the law is to criminalize the act of following someone around online and continually harassing them. Which I personally vi

I think it is more like Google in this case, where the algorithms have to be protected to ensure the quality of the site does not decline. They allow enough information so that people understand, but no enough that the process can be deduce

I asked this question a few days ago but did not get a response. Does anyone know of a company that is working to deliver a platform for the new crowdfunding laws? I have not seen anything that says Kickstart will pivot into it, but I assum

I don't know the grandparents reasoning for the statement but if I where to assume, it would be that many of the popular implementations support much of the functionality natively. If which it may be that the grandparent is not considering

I don't know the details about the bill but it is a given that there is going to be fraud, I think the big issue will be if they set the amount that a person can contribute low enough the system should not cause that much damage, conversely

To me, the good hypothetical recruiter would be like a talent scout in the sports industry, and have the ability to find quality players. This is easier said than done because even many technical people cannot spot true talent. Further I do

There is nothing passive aggressive about realizing the futility is arguing with a certain segment of men (or women for that matter) unless your goal is just to argue. If ones ambition is to be persuasive one must confront the situation und

I was told never to tell a man he was wrong, but to be coy and gently nudge him to my way of thinking. I don't view this is a sexist statement, it is probably good advice for either sex, there are men that for whatever reason react strong

Dojo is probably the closest thing to a full application framework, give that it utilizes Require.js for AMD, has a test harness a complete object model, and a widget system with a life-cycle. The one thing that it lacks is a router, it has

Dojo I've consistently run into compatibility issues with over the years, as it seems a bit IE-centric and it's still pretty heavy weight. I have used Dojo since .4 and have not had many cross browser issues, and the few I have had have m

Why not work with a JavaScript front-end framework like Dojo or Require.js/Backbone/jQuery? while it is a little bit of upfront learning it is in my experience far more maintainable and a faster development cycle. There are a lot of good RE

I think the disadvantage of it being harder to code is subjective. I personally find JavaScript based UI's to be both faster and easier to code. They also offer flexibility that was next to impossible in the old page post model. While I hav

It could be a simpler solution, is everyone putting in long hours? It could be if you guys are burning hours long and fast that several of you are not getting adequate time for your immune systems to recuperate. If so it might be time to do
