This is very well put together, and makes me excited about the possibility of writing in the future. mhartl, I did your rails tutorial a few years ago with very little programming background, and it singlehandedly got me interested in progr

Round Robbin is certainly not equivalent to random, and is much much better for most applications. If all the requests take about the same amount of time, then round Robbin will give the request to the one that hasnt received a request in t

It's amazing how much we have done, yet how horrible even the best commenting systems are.

If you hate JS hacks and web apps and that's what your current job is doing, quit and go work on some database internals or a large distributed system or something. There are lots of jobs that aren't working on CRUD apps out there

This looks awesome at first glance. I might try it out for my next JS game.

In my experience, it took essentially zero time to understand and be able to write simple CoffeeScript. Yeah, it will take some minor effort, but I see it as as parallel to templating languages in terms of your argument. It is faster and cl

I saw the title earlier today and didn't read it, but then when it later had so many comments I figured it was important. I was pretty shocked when I recognized the picture and github username. I'm really glad that you did write
