   There don't even have to be scripts being served -- as long as HTML is being served over HTTP they can inject their own scripts.

   Do you happen to have any links to any of those papers? I would love to read them.

   That's possible, but it's equally possible from the information given that she (*he as it turns out) was just lazy and unmotivated or was in some other way actually the problem. Both types of people exist in great numbers.

   The "double the hourly rate" rule works from the employee's perspective -- $30 hr x ~2000 hrs worked in a year = $60k, but not from the employers, because the fully loaded cost of an employee with a $60k salary is probably ov

    Camlistore seems like it would serve as a great foundation for something like that (or Ward's federated wiki). It was created with a similar goal in mind (stop writing CMSes over and over) by Brad Fitzpatrick (of LiveJournal/memca

    I agree. Same with lots of articles on new sites, blogs, etc. But for what it's worth this paper was published in the Oct 2012 issue of Communications of the ACM, so it's at least that old. http://dl.acm.org/citat

    I doubt that, but I suspect he would read a lot of code.

    I'm with you 100%. From what I've seen most parents fall into one of two extremes. Those that are simply bad parents. They are, on balance, neglectful and/or mean to their children. Or they are hyper involved with their k

    This seems to be spreading the downsides of mutable objects across boundaries. I find a more functional approach which deals primarily with values rather than variables to be the best way to get a grip on the complexity of modern web apps.

    I don't know the answer to your question, but even if we assume it is. Why do you ask? This is just one of many tradeoffs between the two languages. Do you think the number of lines of code is particularly important in this case for

    That still goes away when you close emacs/slime. I think a sketchbook would be more like an ipython notebook or a mathematica page, etc.

    Since this is a common occurrence, it might make sense to define a helper function to make it more natural, maybe something like: function only1(f) { return function(x) { return f(x); }; } then your

    I'm sure there will be a ton of good advice here, but one thing that I've always found helps a lot, regardless of what other resources or approaches you are using is to come up with a project that you want to complete and then use

    I don't disagree but I suspect that proliferation of components within a monolithic app is roughly comparable and leads to similar maintence burdens. If I'm right then the microservice model has one major advantage over the monoli

    I'm not a physicist, but as I understand it, it takes light 1 year to travel 1 light-year. If the nearest life-bearing planet is hundreds of light-years away, even if you could travel at the speed of light, it would still take you hund

    There's a huge difference between telling two wines apart and telling a meat patty and a veggie patty apart. The later is more like being able to tell wine and root beer apart.

    Divvy is the main tool that is missing from the list that I consider mandatory for avoiding the keyboard in OS X. It lets you assign keyboard short cuts to window positions and sizes.

    I know I'm a little late in replying, but you're taking the term pain overly literally. My point was that you can frame anything in terms of pain. For example if you're playing a game to learn, you can view that as trying to

    No one suggests that startups not over-optimize on security or performance because these are not their core business. They suggest that they don't optimize for them because they have extremely limited resources compared to big corpora

    Finally a headline that defeats Betteridge. I guess maybe re-using the title of an academic paper may be a loophole.
