As a small business owner who could find himself on Yelp, I can somewhat sympathize with some of the owners (although not the woman in the article, she just seemed nuts. A much more appropriate thing would be to contact the negative reviewe

You probably shouldn't even have to ask a passionate person this; at some point in the interview, they probably would've told you what they enjoy doing outside of work. Regardless, there's no perfect way to interview someone for a developme

I guess I didn't mean my entry as a way to do better in an interview, but just to become a better programmer by trying to solve small problems quickly. Kind of like doing a http://projecteuler.net/ (Project Euler) problem in your head whi

I wasn't aware Netbooks were up for dying. I guess I'm behind the times, but I still thought they were a pretty hot thing. I have an Asus EEE and its absolutely great. I use it as much as my desktop. Sure I don't develop or play games on it

Most version control systems have hooks, I recently ported one of my subversion hooks to git and decided to blog about it. I figured it'd probably help someone out there, which is why I submitted it to HN.

New PHP development may not be as popular now-a-days (according to that graph, just the other day someone posted a link saying there were gonna be 5.2 million PHP programmers in 2010), but there's certainly a ton of legacy software to sup

I'm not entirely sure I agree with this list. Here's some I would add: PHP - even if you loathe its every existence, if you're a web developer, you're going to come across it, might as well know it. Perl - text processing, data scraping, al

Thanks for using it! I use it to backup all of my databases and entire vhosts directory every hour and night. Let me know if you find any bugs!

Deservedly so. I was a long time Subversion user and just recently switched to git on github. Automatic downloads from the tags you push make it worth the price of admission alone. I'm going through an interview process now, and its made it

Providing the user with a few options can be nice, but it doesn't work for all sites. One of my companies sells gun supplies and accessories. There are tons of manufacturers and parts. Thus, for the redesign of our site, we went with a mega

At my last job, my boss insisted on Media Temple because they had "good spam filtering and the GridService is fast." Unfortunately, neither of those are true. I had a horrible experience with them, response times were slow, and I would neve

Thanks again for the great feedback. You make a lot of excellent points too. Ok, what about the new app from 37Signals, Haystack? Design issues on my site aside, Haystack lets a (specific type of) business advertise for free with 1-6 images

I owe a lot to Rasmus. He developed the language I use daily, has unknowingly helped build my business, and really got me to love web development. Even if you dislike PHP, its undeniable what he's contributed to web development. Best of luc
