   They're a little less than what you might be expecting since they require you to manually signal when they should be updated, but otherwise they sound pretty great.

   hstore is just based on a text format, so if it doesn't support it normally, you could just cast the results of each query to a new hstore, something like `select (data -> foo)::hstore -> bar`. It's probably not a good idea though ;

   This is where you'd want to be looking in the source: https://github.com/rails/rails/tree/master/activerecord/lib/... Specifically at any error handling, which I think would likely be here: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/acti

   If you say something will take an hour, you're almost guaranteed to be wrong, at best you might fall somewhere near that, but you're almost certainly not going to take exactly an hour. I think that estimating in best case / worst case range

   That makes a lot more sense, I was staring at the example, and then just figured I'd have to try it later.

   Here's the link for it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/sage/ The nice thing is that it just sits there in your sidebar, and can be configured to open the articles directly, so it largely stays out of your way.

   I really like the Sage addon for firefox. It's about the only reason I normally open firefox.

    In languages like ruby, python, and probably to some degree go, you tend not to need as many classes. Things like Factories, Adaptors, and Proxies tend to disappear or become pretty trivial. Eventually programs written in these languages c

    I love Löve as well, but yeah, the 3rd party library names are pretty infantile. It would probably have been hilarious when I was 12 though...

    The retina support is really welcome. Up until now, using firefox on a retina mac was kind of disappointing.

    I thought border-box was pretty much how IE handled sizing anyways up until IE8.

    Free workout! My office is moving to East Lake which puts it within biking distance, but the hills between here and there are going to be pretty rough for a while.

    Thanks Steve, that makes perfect sense.

    I know I should just go read the code, but any insight into what the difference is?

    Alternatively, if you're just looking for a way to put placeholders on a page, image services and javascript solutions seem like overkill. You can achieve the same thing with a bit of css: https://github.com/adamsanderson/placeholder

    Linking it may work in some clients, the style tag works in more, but if you want your css to show up in most clients (like outlook), inline it. So if you had `p { color: red; }` in your style sheet, then all your `p` tags should read: `&#6

    I'll second Litmus. It's one of the few tools that I've really felt were worth paying for. It's just tons better than try to test emails ad-hoc.

    Arrays in postgres are incredibly useful for some things. For instance if you use gist or gin index (I forget which), you can do fast intersection queries on arrays. This is really useful if you want to do something like get all the posts

    I was pleasantly surprised when I realized that as I scrolled the example on the right changed. Really nice site guys.

    Amusingly, his post is actually more or less what Crockford says in the opening page or so of JavaScript the Good Parts.

    I have to say, I really enjoy TextMate's autocomplete word. It's not fancy, but it saves me tons of time. Also, not listed there, but TextMate's autocomplete word can also be used with [Shift - Esc] for the reverse direction.

    Same basic principle, it's a Promise library, but this one is by wycats.

    For Node and V8? I'm sure you're right, but when I was poking around I didn't see much more than suggestions to use "node --prof". Which tools have you found useful?

    A solid understanding of math or any technical field combined with practical experience in programming, and a willingness to learn will get you quite far. Also a multidisciplinary background can be quite a strength. For instance we're hiri

    I think it depends on what language someone has come from before using JS. For instance if you come from a ruby background you're probably used to using two spaces.
