   Yeah the state of x86 books is very poor. The book that I recommend is the only x86 book that makes any sense. If anyone knows any great x86, or actually great assembly books, let me know. I'd love to find another great book on this to

   Glad you like the series. Yes, many of the best books were written a long time ago and are now hard to find.

   Of course not. :) And it's going to go on for a while. Part 20 and beyond.

   Yes, we have. The entire Javascript ecosystem is a huge catastrophe. It will collapse any time soon. It's complex, fragmented and no one really likes it. There are a dozen different tools to get started. No one even understands how to

    Ok, I've had enough. I'm making a prediction that the entire JavaScript ecosystem will collapse. This just doesn't make any sense. None of this is nice. It's all ugly and complicated. There's no beauty to these tool

    What kind of a system is surname.pdf, New-Pub_New2new.pdf, USENIX_.PDF, and Paper.pdf. I like to say: Show me how you organize your files, and I'll tell you how good of a computer user you are.

    One lesson academics should learn: pdf-naming-skills.pdf. I've been collecting interesting scientific papers and publications since early 2000 (I've a collection of 10,000 or so) and I've not yet seen a single academic, not e

    Since I run Browserling (a cross-browser testing company), I test in all the browsers. :) Before I start testing, I use Chrome to get it done.

    Of course I'd fire him. These folks are building a Linux stack software and the guy complains he can't use make on Windows. It's not only he's not a cultural fit, he's also not a technical fit. He'll never unde

    I don't want to be mean but he wasn't a good cultural fit if he complained about that and should've been let go. Successful companies and products are built by like-minded people. You can't have someone on your team who

    You did the right thing. Software should be built using fundamental tools and not frameworks and libraries that are here for the next two years. Make is never going away, it's so fundamental that we'll be using it in 20 years.

    This is yet another reason to avoid using frameworks you don't really need. Just because someone uses React, and there's buzz around this framework, doesn't mean you've to use it. Talking from my experience frameworks ar

    You're not too old. The new frameworks just don't make much sense. You don't need any of them to write applications. They just bloat everything, create additional dependencies and don't help you much. You spend all your

    Don't let the peer pressure get you down. Stick to jQuery. Like you said, you can get anything done with it very quickly. You don't need any of these massive frameworks to build web applications.

    They should've said: JSX is a JavaScript syntax extension that looks similar to HTML.

    Good point - Now that you said that, I don't mind using XML for defining UIs but I absolutely hate to use for data transfer.

    I hadn't heard about JSX before so I went to your link to check it out. This is just one of the most off-putting introductory statements I've ever read: JSX is a JavaScript syntax extension that looks similar to XML. Don&

    I'm not a React or Angular expert, but do you really put HTML inside of your JS code? It just bothers me too much. We spent years in early web days learning that code and templates should be separate, yet here we are putting HTML insid
