I think the point is that we should program a way to avoid programming.

I think the way it has to be explained is that, sometimes I'll read a book but my phone will be there. Just near me so I'll tap the on button, no notifications, back to reading. Tap the on button. Read. I didn't check the tim

I think what he is saying is that the willingness to have multiple failed experiments is what makes Google. He mentioned a ton of other experiments including self driving cars, Google is so large that they continually create two or more int

As a dev who's always used Sublime/Atom and sometimes Vim, what's the benefit of Emacs for Lisp?

Why `success ? 'method1' : 'method2'` instead of `success ? obj.method1() : obj.method2() `? That seems more concise to me.

I've never understood the pattern of separating out services, controllers and directives into different modules. Your post controller is probably going to need your post service, so why put them in separate modules? Makes more sense t

See Dan Gilbert & Detroit. It's essentially what he is doing though it's reliant on existing architecture.

Utility doesn't make money. I'm all for cool apps, what I'm not for is overvaluing and expecting returns on companies with no revenue streams and realistically no way to create revenue streams. Even advertising would be diffi

Speaking of, why in the world does this small front end app need a Laravel back end? Laravel is a full scale framework the size of rails. This is like doing a ToDo MVC app, the pure js one, and requiring Rails.

I'm interested in this as well. I believe some people have had success by attaching components to the window as globals.

Considering how absolutely terrible the native client is for Spotify I'm assuming a terminal client would just run rm -rf / or some other joyful error. I wouldn't trust anyone at the Spotify team to code...well really any us

After fighting and fighting with the asset pipeline I finally realized I could just use gulp to build to my public folder and completely avoid fucking with it. It was an amazing moment of clarity for me.

It depends on which libraries you are using. Sure if you need jQuery and maybe another plug in that's fine, you're at 3 files to be loaded then. 2 from cdn, the jquery and plugin, plus one from your server. For a web application h

So in theory it's as easy as using AngularDart and compiling the javascript and throwing that in my rails assets? I feel like I knew that and for some reason it blows my mind.

One of the things that for some reason really confuses me about Dart even though it probably shouldn't is it's status as being full stack. I really want to use AngularDart for the front end of an application I am using and I would

The problem with fines and fees is that it puts a price on things, which is why those electric signs work so much better than speeding cameras. Sure, a $100, $200, or more ticket is expensive and a lot of money to some people it allows the

Browserify? Same wrapping as RequireJS would implement I believe, obviously not the 'same' but same level of performance hit and browser based tooling.

CommonJS is far superior to AMD. This is an attempt to rewrite parts of backbone to make it better, one of the main parts of that is making it CommonJS compatible. The other part is simplifying the getters and setters and the way changing p

I've played the game a bit but I just don't feel like I understand it. It seemed like there were only one or two commands so you basically coded that up and you pressed play. How does the game work exactly?

We can only assume they've had their entire engineering team fighting for weeks over the decision. There is no way they have a team of engineers focused on development of features, bugs etc and a separate team of designers, marketers o

Honestly, that seems very fair. Because of the way retina screens upsize images you actually get a clearer view of how it looks at 16 pixels in a standard screen by being served the 32px when using a retina one.

The Lab cafe in Ann Arbor is the only one I can remember by name but I've never had to hand my card over. What in the world is the big deal with handing cards over anyways?

A CLI is more productive, generally while a GUI is more fun. They each have their own use cases. A CLI has an inherent learning curve no matter how great the API, a GUI requires physical interaction delaying potential working.

I think he means more like Zipcar than some other sharing thing. Where you share from a corporation, it feels like sharing and is considered sharing but it's actually renting.

Apparently they admit they have no revenue source and as such going public doesn't make sense. Maybe they are aiming to be more like Wikipedia than Yahoo?

I just want to take everyone in the Valley aside and sit them down, look into the crowd and calmly say "Hey guys, if we could please stop overvaluing every company that manages to set up a simple CRUD site with no revenue model, that w

Exactly this. Listing things you've done as a hobby that you aren't comfortable saying you can work with is a bonus. It shows you are committed to being a passionate developer, which is of course a very very good thing.
