No. Javascript is just a general purpose language. It could very well serve as a DSL for layout or presentation. But the browsers already have that, it's called HTML and CSS. What I'm referring to is Javascript syntax. It's way too ambiguou

Kudos for the effort, but it won't fly. Writing everything in JS isn't gonna make it better all of a sudden, even if it's sanitized JS. HTML and CSS are fine for the jobs they do which is data description and layout. The problem is JS itsel

Instead you could take the fact of him posting that instead of being killed in flight as empirical evidence. ;) BTW, I also don't turn off my devices in flights. I'm still alive and kicking.

That works incredibly well too. With the added bonus of having time to spare to do more rewarding things.

Hitting the reader on mobile Safari does the trick (I'm on iOS 5.1.1). I also find this TC "feature" very annoying.

I have an iPhone 4 (out of warranty) that all of sudden got stuck on dock mode and stopped playing sounds trough it's speaker. The only time I could hear something from the speaker was the ringtone when someone was calling me. Before I open

And there it goes another $US100 million [1] on technology that won't solve the problem. They should stop this nonsense, legalize the stuff and regulate the market. More tax money could be collected to be invested in society, for instance,

First of all, congrats on building and releasing something! Now a few pointers. The workflow isn't flowing. I know the whole idea revolves around managing tasks as text, but unless you fit vim into a text area the app won't fly. Another ide

I don't think so. As they are a small business limiting the scope makes sense.

Great day indeed to be a python developer. Greatly appreciated, thanks Amazon! Now, if you could support PostgreSQL in RDS, that would be a nice feat.

I don't have a blog, but I write a lot. That's why I could relate to many points raised by this author. However, something was missing. In my opinion, if you don't write to better understand how you think, you're dead wood. No one can bette

Well, that's not for me. I have RSI and track points give me terrible cramps. On the other hand, with a properly configured (tap to click) glass trackpad that problem goes away.

Do thinkpads still have those terrible trackpointy things in the middle of the keyboard? That's not timeless design. That's a timeless pice of crap! Now the MacBook Pro trackpad... Fingers fly on that glass.

I stopped reading when the guy talked about licensing. C'mon, it's a home server! Just pick something you feel comfortable with and go with it. After all, the entire world economy isn't depending on stability of your home server setup. O

Thanks. You managed to say it all better than I did somewhere here. Let's just hope the message gets trough.

Ouch! No heed to be harsh. I certainly appreciate Linus's work. Kudos to him! I understood his point on the stupidity thing. It even took some laughs out of me. And that's the reason I posted that, so other people could too. I don't mean to

In the last few days after I woke up, I picked up my iPad, and I started to see all these posts trying to figure out what's wrong in the app business. This looks like random debugging more than anything else. Seriously, stop. Please, just r

Hey Samsung! Why don't you guys get rid of those copy machines and hire some talented people? I'm sure that would be a lot cheaper that what you'll have to pay for Apple. ;-)

I find them horrible as well. That's why when I'm given the opportunity to write my own questions I always do so. Then in this security theater I hopefully am a little bit safer than most people that just pick a question from a list. On a s

First of all, language design is tough business. And for not appreciating that, with all my heart, I thank Netscape's project managers for rushing JS designers. That said, I don't get all the hate towards ObjC. Taking into consideration its
