Rant Ahead.... I'm waiting for the person to pipe up saying they are going to outsource their development to Vietnam after reading this article. Stuff will happen, the hype will be replaced with reality and there will be lots of work clea

A year ago my mother went in for back surgery, a week after she had a sharp pain, and ended up with MRSA which had turned into sepsis. It damaged her heart and in the end, after a two month fight led the ARDS and took her life. The hel

Wow, that actually gives me more confidence because we have people doing it because they feel passionate about it. Thanks for your hard work.... I've been busy with some other small OS projects (and stuff that pays the bills) but personal

Rails has definitely started to get complex, which is why many have chosen to go towards the simplicity of Sinatra, Rack etc.. Any time a framework get's complex this happens. Look at big data and AI. There are loads of permutations. H

That's not my point.... I made the "understand the framework" statement in response to some mistakes I have seen introduced by sloppy dev's on some rails projects I have worked on...That obviously wasn't the case here....... If security is

+1 Steve Part of being a good developer is understanding your framework and making sure that your app has the level of security you need. The framework cannot protect you from everything. The team responded really quickly. Aaron is a real

There are two issues with this article. One, writing software is not like producing things on an assembly line. This is why we have come to realize that CMM is not effective, and Agile/Lean works.....Writing software is analogous to des

My mother died from a hospital acquired superbug (MRSA) earlier this year......this is nasty stuff.

Then there are those that claim to have injected themselves with these and then performed surgery on others.....There was a TED talk on this..... scary and reckless stuff.
