Bunyan and Winston are both decent but they still do too much. If your app isn't a logger itself features like log rotation, log levels, and configurable transports don't belong in your app. Just because you delegate those feature

Postgres almost warrants its own non-generic ORM. That would actually be kinda cool.

I work from home for a startup. My daughter is in the next room, I can hear her watching Curious George. And I still teared up reading the poem, because I could have written it myself. I don't know about the author, but for me the star

Is is reasonable to expect generator based flow control to catch up to vanilla callbacks on performance eventually? Even under ideal circumstances we'd be looking at the overhead of the indirection, but I wonder if the mechanics of yie

Maybe I'm weird, but I think I actually prefer the Express example. When I used Rails I found the biggest learning curve was actually learning how to get around the magic when necessary, leaving me craving something more like Sinatra,

You can also use this to set up a bidirectional channel, allowing for bidirectional streaming. Really handy when your client isn't a browser.

Do you realize your opinions _appear_ to be based on something that is 2 years old? It's not really logical to judge whether or not something has improved over the last 2 years if you're willfully avoiding most of the changes made

The cluster control is pretty cool. Reminds me of spinning up dynos on Heroku but without the extra cost.

The tricky part is transferring state between hot reloads, and that's part of what Erlang was designed around. State has to be passed in and owned by the callee. And if the format that state is stored in changes, you need to handle tha

I think the author was trying to say that these online campaigns make people feel like they've contributed and therefore don't need to participate in a street protest. While I do see the parallel you are pointing out, I think &quo

Thread safety in this case I think would mean running multiple instances of node embedded in your app, each in their own thread and with their own event loops.

Is this the C++ accessible side of vm.createContext() and vm.runInContext()? Seems like it would help with sandboxing.

It's definitely a trade-off. What Node gives you is async when you need it at the cost of giving you async even when you don't. The pain and constraints introduced by this forced use of async sure has spawned a lot of wheels of al

Was the strongloop blog post modified since you linked to it? It really doesn't match your characterization of Issac Roth at all. Quite the opposite, actually.

I think the subtext there was that maintenance of large code bases and the associated productivity is inherently a people (developers) problem, not a technical (language) problem. It's normally considered foolish to attempt to solve people

A couple years ago I decided to learn Python. I took a quick look, saw Python 3 was the "latest", and started working on my app, using http://docs.python.org/py3k/ as my guide. It wasn't until a month later when I went to deploy that I di

In an office environment any co-worker can be a rubber duck for you. Of course, if all you can find are people who are knowledgeable about what you're working on, you may not need a rubber duck.

It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure all of his books point out that 9/10 attempts result in failure; the trick being to see the failure early enough to recover and move onto the next attempt before it is too late.

It allows coding in C++ in a fashion similar to Node by taking advantage of the lambda syntax added in C++11. It also makes use of libuv and http-parser, which are used in Node, to offer some of the same out-of-the-box functionality.

I think some people might see Lua has giving more bang for your buck because of its popularity in things like game scripting among other things.

You could probably stuff Node into this category too, if your target is the type to be impressed with writing their own basic web server in 10 lines of code.

I think the emphasis was supposed to be on before it launches . As in before it has seen a useful spectrum of usage upon which to base a review.
