Obviously the safe bet is to not crack jokes that may hurt people around you. If you don't know how to joke around without hurting people, don't joke around with your co-workers.

If you don't know how to avoid crossing the line you shouldn't be joking around. The onus is on you, the joke maker, to have a basic understanding of your audience as well as your privileges in society.

I find it really surprising that Rails is taking heat for this. "Protect your attributes" is something you learn really early on, and most of my models will have a spec along the lines of "as a user, I can't steal another user's _____" On

When I'm writing jQuery code I like to use $varName to refer to vars which store a jQuery object, and plain old varName for everything else. This is a fairly common technique that I picked up from I think Paul Irish or Rebecca Murphey. In

Copyright gives an economic incentive to produce art. You can't exactly create blockbuster films or high quality TV series in your spare time. The issue is that the government has extended the reach of copyright beyond what was originally

I'm told they last. With some brands you pay for the label, but with others you're paying for quality. For example, if you buy a pair of $300 shoes from Allen Edmonds and treat them properly you can expect to get 20 years out of them. Th

With patterns (stripes, plaid, checks, whatever), essentially you don't want to have more than one item with a similar-size pattern. So if you're wearing a shirt with small checks you can wear a tie with a big pattern (wide stripes, big pl

Look for slim fit shirts. I've heard good things about Brooks Brothers Extra Slim Fit shirts. H&M also makes good slim fitting shirts if you're on a budget. In American clothing lingo "extra slim fit" just means "not overweight." Alt
