MVC scales fine for what its meant for. I'm going to hazard a guess and say they were putting far more than a web app layer into the thing. MVC by definition is easy to debug you can look at the inputs and follow through to the output

Next you'll tell us the main stream media has an effect on voting outcomes too. /surpriseface It is a significant worry that google can sway votes, however I dont think Facebook, the news or any other media platform is in any diff

Over the years my opinion on this sways between never, and whenever you feel like it. Never: its far too risky, usually ends up not fixing half of the issues in the first place. Better off taking scorched earth refactor approach at the clas

I dont get it, why is deduping at a chunk level important, can't it just take it as a tradeoff and dedupe at the file level, or does that have the same problems? And why exactly is deduping important for a personal use case, bandwidth

Anyone know of any sublime themes which take this less is more philosophy to heart? Tending to agree with this for the most part. I find the usefulness of syntax highlighting more or less to be a kind of always on linter in that I can see w

The one that isn't amazon. Honestly I dont think anyone here can decide for you. Its something you need to decide yourself. You may get some anecdotes here but mostly all you'll get is personal preferences. My advice flip a coin.

I dont think the seach space is necessary. As long as you can attack their advertising income you would have them by the balls. Without search you might run into trouble serving up your ads. I think the most likely point of failure for them

Amazon would not ban you for this. They encourage it. They have throttling on though.

Sorry but what's the point? Like what issue with amazon search are you trying to solve? Cool weekend project either way. Props.

Pretty sad. McAfee I dont really expect much less from. They've always been a bunch of scam artists / con's in my mind. I dontbhave time to look but couple of things striked me as odd. Is there a reason you dont lock down you

TIL: Chromes Google translate looks for domain names and decides based on the tld's within which language is the source language. (A whole bunch of .es domains were showing when I looked, it tried to translate from spanish)

Size is, and has always been, at least in my opinion, a symptom of failing the single responsibility principle. Its not the cause. Its only useful as an indicator, you still have to look at the case, figure out if the function / class

I would like to chime in and say, regarding ram slots and upgradeable, you just dont need that flexibility any more. Max out the ram on purchase and it will last you until you upgrade. Its very unlikely you'll be wanting for more than

Came here to say similar. In addition I dont see any problem. The URL bar is a redundant usability smell. Needs to be cleaned up in the fashion they have. On security, I feel its a problem sure, but teaching users about URLs is a bandaid fi

I don't think there is one. Perhaps another way to look at it -are you really only adding $1 of value? You could also look at a form of prepay, clock in 20$ credit only use $1 worth

I also found Betas a lot better in regards to reality. But also like them about equally, for different reasons. I find SV to be mostly taking the piss out of the startup scene (through exaggerations on reality), much like the big bang theor

In excel they're using some pattern recognition so when you start filling down a column they just fill out the rest instead of waiting for you to use the fill down feature, I thought that was just plain neat. They're improving col

Considering we don't have any industry standard bodies of knowledge, yes it probably is a good idea, because we don't have anyone who can lay out a definitive answer on many of our preference based arguments. i.e. these arguments

I attempt to keep the two separate. Designing your back end while keeping the frontend in mind will tend to create tightly coupled code that is hard to maintain. Even if you're not creating an api, treat your back end as such to avoid
