Here is an easy alternative to a MacBook Pro (easy for a professional anyway): Buy a standard Laptop with matte display. Install Arch Linux (learn one thing or another on the way). Use Gnome 3 (maybe install some software from Pantheon as w

I like how the article transformed my view of Twitter. I never saw it as a kind of newspaper without a filter and I think I like the analogy. Twitter does give a voice to people and the magnitude of participation by people on Twitter speaks

Yep, same with the word "hacker": Some people like to call themselves a hacker when they simply made a meal or put some clothes into a bag nicely ... Then again, isn't language always changing and words are constantly redefin

A very interesting topic (optimization) and the documentation does a good job at introducing it. I also like the facts that the author published under an open source license and that he is financed/employed by a company that does all t

"Growth hacking" is another pointless phrase. The words "hacking" and "hacker" have become pretty useless, actually. They just mean way too many things to different people. One might just as well replace "

We should more than ever strive for perfect code. Perfect as defined by all stakeholders in a software. There is really no point in striving for anything less. Sure you maybe forced to stop at one point (time and money beeing the limiting f

No I am the "making my mind up about what I want, reading the list of features, reading the list of characteristics (like how much gas the car uses) and the price, weighting in everything and arriving at an average-car" guy.

Sandboxing while keeping all features is no more or less secure than without the sandbox, it just makes stuff slower.

The best things suggested: - Strip down the features of the application to minimize attack surface. (see bloated, badly designed web apis...) - Don't let sensitive code be produced by interns.

Responsive UI for non-web system. But noone knows what the future brings so we'd rather build this thing on a solid base.

Most people in my company have mostly been working with PHP and thus it would be too much of a break with the past to switch languages.

We had some experience with Wordpress and from the list of features, it fits the bill almost. Almost because we found the templates were very messy.

It's good to know that the templating engine can be exchanged.

My comment was not meant to "jump down" on anyone. Sorry for the misunderstanding. It was a simple question (also because the Laravel answer did not go into that much detail). The reason why I added "templates without code&qu

I meant that the actual problem is the emotional attachment to the things you own, its not the things themselves. That beeing said, it does not matter, how much someone owns, just how attached he/she is to it. The lesser attached the h

It is possible to legally own a lot of stuff but still be cool if you lose most of it.

In case of Linux: the kernel alone does not make an OS, so if you consider the various distributions of Linux OS'es, like Debian for example: Each (well the large ones) distribution comes with their own package management tools. So cur

Management has always politics involved. And politics get ugly fast, strange personalities fighting over small stuff with minimal importance. Now exchange "Management" in the first sentence with "Programming in a team" ;

Do not automate your home itself, but let an autonomous robot automate it for you. That way you have a hardware "fallback" that is robust, cannot be hacked externally and can be adjusted manually. Think of R2D2 moving around the h

Good idea but target names might contain numbers as well, so you should adjust the regular expression used: @grep -P '^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+:. ?## . $$' $(MAKEFILE_LIST) | ...

Why I can not control what you mean: 1. Not much free time to code besides job, family and life. 2. Not possible while coding at work. That stuff is just too random and boring to be exciting. So I suppose to induce "productive mania&qu

OP's question is a generalization over a whole generation and can thus hardly be true. What might be true though is that knowledge in software programming is much more specialized than a couple of years ago. IMHO that is a sign of a gr
