The article is alarmist for sure. I highly doubt these startups centered around this activity will outlast the inevitable death of the platforms they're attached to.

I usually like Ted's posts but this is past the valid criticisms of Node.JS and into pure troll. The real troll is that he wrote an overly complicated command line interface to campfire. Watch me wave my arms around, I'm so impressed. Hubot

Have you used it? The principal thing is that it's different and offers less customization than gnome2 and even gnome3 with gnome-shell. Any action requires a hilarious number of clicks to get done. These sorts of things are self-evident wh

Just keep in mind every quote needs 'sic' after the end of it, because these transcriptions are pretty bad.

Non-OEM batteries are a mistake 90% of the time. The quality is just not good. For something that can start on fire, I'm willing to spend the extra 30 bucks to know it's a good battery.

Still waiting? It takes longer than four months to bring new technology from research to market. Put up some money for investing in manufacturing and maybe your complaint would be valid.

I was able to duplicate, but took a little bit different process. Sign up, add your mobile, confirm it, then log out and back in. The result was definitely people who had done what the author said but it was also interspersed with friends o

This should really just be a graph with two lines: A very small one that says 'As much as I quoted', and a far larger line that says 'Much more than I quoted'.

I think the biggest reason why people abuse --force is because you have to force rm to remove directories. In our day of ~/Downloads full of extracted tarballs, we use it pretty flippantly. If that weren't the case, we might be more cautiou

Do some demo apps. Say you care more about company culture and development process than the stack. I recently made a similar move, although I had some PHP experience, it was many years-old and not really suitable to be cited as a skill any

If shell were a brand new language, made in someone's basement, it would be immediately shat upon. But its ecology and ubiquity make it 'good enough'. But really, shell programming is awesome in its simplicity. Bash syntax is a bit clumsy b

As a fellow hacker who has trouble being verbally eloquent during interviews with technical details, I must say: get over it. Interviewing is a skill, and you have to actually prepare, rehearse your responses and talking points, and develop

I wouldn't make the same choice. Node is young enough that a minor change like this with proper warning to developers should be expected. If Node's version was >1.0.0 I'd expect this bug to have been fixed years ago. It's completely sub

To add to dmd's goals, I'd like to also package up the code socket.io-style, so character-level updates can be utilized for other types of applications. The frontend uses Google's diff_match_patch library ( http://code.google.com/p/google-d

Link parsing is coming. It's even on our issues page! Thanks for the feedback.

Nasty. But it's the same for substring text offsets, array indices etc in Postgres.

If you switch to Postgres, psql (the commandline client) supports the features you're asking for. :)

Does it really matter that they're using an open video codec when their protocol itself is not? It's at least of little utility to anyone else that they use an open video codec.

Agreed. It gracefully degrades into something readable if parsing fails, which is not applicable to HTML.

Seems like this is an unavoidable issue with the land area of the United States, then. The pain-in-the-ass has to be relocated to someone, so it ends up with the truck drivers and/or product costs.

Would a more extensive rail infrastructure eliminate the need for so many trucks? Does rail fail to scale at the distances and route complexities involved in traversing the US to all the major population centers? I promised I didn't intend

The only OS that I've encountered suffering from this problem is Windows. Both OSX and Linux manage to retain the same amount of perceived responsiveness to me. It's all anecdotal.
