Speaking to the first portion of your complaint, I remember coming across that particular feature of YAML years ago, and being surprised at how odd it was that it was present. I shrugged it off because (at the time), I considered YAML to be

Really nice looking impl in JS, though I'd add that doing perlin noise over a limited grid is a pretty limited subset of what Minecraft does. Minecraft's terrain generator does a couple of passes (last I read about this, things may have cha

"PHP is the easiest language to learn for non technical people". I believe that is a flawed statement. I think looking at the number of existing sites and using that as evidence that because there are a large number of PHP websites, the we

Depending on the goal you're trying to achieve, it could be a great tool, but I wouldn't diss the filesystem too much. You lose the discoverability of all your fs tools, a whole suite of APIs no longer becomes available (async IO, say), an

Agreed. I also go to the Indy Ruby Meetup (one of the Star guys), and the city scene is not terrible. (at least, in terms of the talent you'll meet) In terms of available jobs, it is a bit frustrating. I know the Dealer Flow guys are curr
