First, this article is 4/5 years old. Second, this highlights another unfortunate Indian tendency to revel in cynicism. Well, I am a programmer based in India, and know many others who also are. And although I also prefer to use the 'prog

Did not like this post. Like many others over here, I also have read all the great posts by him over the years, on joelonsoftware. But, honestly, this one just does not cut it for me. He is over simplifying everything. And his extreme view

I had bookmarked this thread and had decided to give bootstrap a try. My other option was jquery (including jquery UI). I am mainly a programmer and not a natural designer. After about a day or so of trying out to move my existing UI (of a

I endorse your view. Its puzzling to see how in a very silly manner, so many people just want to be "fashionable" when it comes to use of tech. The FB engineer in his interview ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3527419 ) says it just ab

I think the author was not willing (or it did not strike him at all) that the meaning of word 'hacker' could be anything different than what he had in mind. Once any one does that, the rest of the explanation can be used to support the defi

Totally love your suggestion. I myself am on my own Startup for over 4 years now. Once I realized that Startups should be treated like marathons, I myself started running. I run about 5km, five or six days a week. To me running has had a b

For me its the 5th one now. It shows another blog based on this post( http://meta.ath0.com/2012/01/05/googleplusungood/ ) as 2nd in the search for "jon mitchell jury duty".

Actually, if I did, it wouldn't even be for this female, but simply to get relief from the emotional and mental torment that I have to endure most days Looks like you are already feeling better. From the other comment, I came to know that

Yes, I meant that in the sense you understood. That lady's behavior was really a below average case. I believe, that on an average people are not so bad. So I believe that our friend, deserves a better hand in future.

Brother, don't do it for this lady's sake. You clearly deserve better. Just give life a chance, and I think you are doing the right thing by moving.

You seem to be able to write so well. Just wonder, if you manage to answer 'Tomorrow I can decide again' for some good 20-30 years or so. And while doing it, if you preserve a private memoir of sorts on these thoughts. Then surely you have

Beginning of 2011, my new year resolution was "less facebook". I am glad that I have kept it. The way I did was, stopped posting stuff over there. As I figured I am more keen on what people are liking/commenting on what I post. I know it is

This is highly commendable effort. I have been the lead programmer of an India based travel search engine, so understand the value of this data. Another problem to be solved is: Building a cache of seat availability. Basically, the Indian R

I, like many of you, like Steve Yegge's eloquence. But not always agree with his logic. I have issues with both his posts (the leaked one and this), on the logic front. a) In the earlier accidentally leaked one, I felt he was being too hars
