   This is amazing, sad, and befuddling. My sense is that while I'm sure his family are very sad, they probably aren't 100% surprised either.

    Yeah, the market is really "punishing" them all right: https://www.google.com/finance?client=ob&q=NASDAQ:AAPL (stock currently at $663) Google and Apple may have, at a high level, opposing strategies, but Apple's approach is being ado

    In my experience that architecture roles can definitely mean that at a lot of companies (the pasture part specifically, but I would like a scarf). To some degree it's natural to let the role end up like that, but as the person in the role,

    Great idea to use Mixpanel events for implementation. Much easier and quicker to implement for the majority of sites.

    We've been logging client-side for a little while now, and while we have tons of log files filled with Facebook like buttons issues, it has been very helpful a number of times. Of course, some browsers are of course less helpful than others

    He had me up until the part about models talking directly to views. I was nodding along until then. While I agree that the application business logic should be in models, but the controller needs to be that traffic cop, only asking for what
