I think the funniest part is how he specializes in eyeglass wear. I don't know if there's anything to the sterotype of eyeglass wearers being more geeky or introverted (I wear glasses but I'm a small test group) - but it goes along perfectl

Weirdly some in the PHP world have tried to mimic Java's deep layering with these horrific (imho) MVC frameworks that (again imho) simply combine the worst of both worlds. Dynamic class loading, bootstrappers, magic (and sometimes unpredic

I thought SilverStripe was pretty good when I first looked at it. The framework it's built on is actually not as good as they hype (in my experience) and documentation lacking... but from the enduser standpoint it is a pretty good mix of ea

That's so funny. I just transferred 2 domains over to Godaddy from Tucows. The transfer cost + 1 year hosting was $7.67 per domain. On your site you offer the same deal for $10.50. Thanks - I'll pass!

I don't follow you on the jump from unfounded to religious. Not every statement which does not include a scientific footnote is religious in nature.

You don't have a thorough understanding about how psychologists help people. That's probably because I've never known any who have. And little? I don't think depression is a "little problem." Fair enough. I switched little to the colore

And yet it's consumed by about 2 billion people worldwide. The OP's problem is that he's a 21yo boy. Talking about his problems with a shrink and taking little colored pills is not going to help him have the experiences he needs to grow.

Get into IRC God no. I've never known an IRC channel that was not moderated by egotistical losers. IRC is great for coding help, not socializing. He needs real people. Not another fat, lonely kid with ban privileges.

Dude, start drinking. You will get over your inhibitions and meet people. You will have the best and worst experiences of your life. And sometime after it is all said and done you will find yourself.

You're right. But I wanted to reply on the same level as the OP.

He never asks them if they'd like a refrigerator for food and medicine, an air conditioner or some roads built to increase their access to civilisation. Um.. most of the natives in South America are losing out to clear-cut logging. I'm no

What the heck does that actually mean? Can we just admit that these statements are religious, but wrapped in non-religious language? It's actually the reverse. The religious view is God gave us the Earth as a kind of fruit to be plucked.

I bought the first disc I could when it came out. And it's still sitting unwatched on the shelf. Your pointless consumerism is part of the problem.

I had this problem with XUI (and even Madrobby's brilliant Emile - although that's mostly a proof of concept). The library is just beneath what I consider necessary in terms of flexibility and robustness to be usable in production. Like no

John I tend to agree with you - and applaud the effort you've been doing with jQuery Mobile - but I also think the focus should be on mobile data usage, not device sales. In our case (and YMMV) mobile users are 80% iPhone, 10% Android and 1

Because they can see first hand the quality of the code (plus all the other meta information that comes along with commit logs). How do you evaluate proprietary code at anywhere near that same level?

I spoke with someone who was able to play around with a pre-release device and their verdict was the included browser actually behaved more like IE6 than IE7.

If it were an employer's market you could probably get away with that.

If it's a superficial analysis (ie interview), then punctuality, dress and preparation on their part (investigation prior to the meeting) is valid. If they haven't inquired about the dress code, then they should assume it's formal. If you h
