I agree with you that the German banks facilitated the spending, but the fault still lies with the countries that abused that money. You cannot blame the bank for your debt after requesting your 12th credit card! Aside: I believe that the

Germany may have profited from the spending sprees of the southern nation, but it did not directly cause the problem. Lack of discipline is what caused the crisis. Germany passed difficult structural reforms in the 2000s and is now reaping

I agree with your sceptisism. This is misusing a language feature, a better approach is using a decorator.

It sounds like you are already doing this, but now make sure that you not only answer your kids' questions, but more importantly teach them your A,B,C,D research/teaching steps! Give a man a fish, ... :)

And I think to answer the parent's question one can expand on your second point. I think most people don't admit to being wrong or not knowing because they 1). wrongly think of certain people as relevant or 2). they have chosen their releva

He said genetic programming not genetic algorithms. For the former, type and category theory are useful!

Really nice site! I love the UI. But please make it available for other countries too (me: Switzerland!)!

But how does that help the customer (be it internal or external)? How is he supposed to align capital, human or financial? For example: when does he tell the marketing team to start the big launch campaign, etc? An example would be somethin

Even though the author may be making a valid point, I don't think it matters. I mostly program for myself and for other programmers (or at least technically inclined people). I don't care if my mother uses the software I write. That is why

I understand and agree with you, so I will take back that statement and simply say that that was my impression and not what was actually meant.

You didn't say that per se, but I felt it in the undertone of the whole essay. See some of these sentences: "As I was doing it I tried to imagine what a transcript of the other guy's talk would be like, and it was only then I realized he ha

Well then he should have said that and not tried to argue that people who can speak cannot think!

`iPhone only?': `No' What else is there? You only have an App Store link on the site.

"If you're worried about getting respect, you're worried about the wrong thing". I don't agree with this. I agree that if you're worried about getting popularity, then you're worried about the wrong thing. Respect is important, but only fro

"Homakov PUT an update to his own existing public key which included a new user_id. The user_id he used was that of a member of the Rails repository members." But wouldn't that mean, that the commit would display the username of the user wi

The difference is that those people never intended to make money of those projects. Or at least not directly (Red Hat).

I thought he meant doing it manually. Using XHR is trivial isn't it?

Why would you want to do that from a browser?

I never get arguments like this. In a perfect market every entity tries to get as much money as the market is willing to pay. There are some pretty extreme example such as this one, but in the whole that is a good thing!

I am not sure about this, but I think that if you adhere to the HATEOAS principle you could provide URIs for non-existent resources that can then be used to PUT. Example a user profile may contain a URI to the user's profile picture althoug

Actually these is quite a big difference. PUT specifies the resource to be update, whilst POST does not do so. This means that you must (according to RFC 2616) use POST if you want to create a new resource and PUT if you want to change an e

Just thought I would add my two cents. My situation is a little bit like yours (shifting of start-/end-times, flipping (I do it on a Sunday night usually)). I am a still a student so I guess I don't have the problem of having to match other

This has been discussed so many times now! It's not news! In a world where content is consumed on different devices with different "views" I think this is a necessity.
