I have to qualify that both are good for different purposes. But do go ahead and share your experiences with your stack used and performance.

By others meaning(Ruby, Python Java etc) for real time, concurrency type of capabilities? Or am I terribly misinformed? I dont have Node experience but Ruby seems not too easy to put together with AngularJS. I understand Node.js's prim

Thanks for the lengthy feedback, appreciate the elaboration on the bindings and the UI. Its actually the strength of Angular but I guess when it gets too big, it gets unwieldy in the case of meteor.js

Thanks Nico, I was in this direction just that real time comes with a hefty price tag and little or no open source options.

From preliminary obervations, Meteor.js as some users have earlier mentioned, is actually a full platform but yet with sketchy documentation and little support from users in terms of open source stuff and help.

I only started speaking at 3 and I was in an environment with English, Chinese, Malay and 2 other dialects. Certainly not a indicator of general well being and intelligence since I turn out ok, just not very sociable :) I also read that lat

That's why most who have seen some success would say (or so I have heard from their mouths): "The more you try, the luckier you get". There may be an element of luck that may affect to a significant extent (think lottery) wit

Ermmm well we all learn by observing other codes out there many times and rest of it troubleshooting isnt it? If it works, it works. Why bother re-writing it anyway? Unless its refactoring. If its me, Ill confront him and ask him about his

Its always good to teach and share to reinforce your existing skills and discover new ones. Like many said, mentoring or taking up/ suggesting new projects may be a plausible avenue. You could also internally create some challenges for

1) Everything. Even simple things like pushing codes to repositories took me eons to pick up. Also, programming isnt hard, in fact its easy. The hard part is understanding how to link up everything, front to back and to others such as codet

Failure is usually an iteration. My most recent project failed too. Good thing is cheer up, at least now you know what doesnt work, focus on what works or what you think may work. I got myself a day job while working on another project on t

Apart from that, a bulk of people are learning Ruby and hence rails most of the time as the support and gems are pretty vast. Also, Python is more defined in terms of how you structure the code, while Ruby has more ways to express the same

I dont know. I personally felt it was better to at least give the person an idea of my background and what I am up to. It solves the issue of finding someone whos vision is aligned to yours. A random note for coffee doesnt work that well fo

I think if this can be extended to make the changes easy to apply (with real time checking of how the output will be) and understanding the code differences, then many of the wireframe companies out there may lose their appeal....

Feels like the author is trying hard to debunk the book's claims by attacking the definitions. I would think that by providing counter examples or counter thesis would have been more effective. For example, saying the excavator firm pe

Excellent article, I agree with the author. Most times, it isnt really about how much calculations you make because the permutations and combinations are almost infinite and one could never yield anything useful with the current state of co

In a country where everything is measured by GDP growth, it isnt surprising. Mountains actually do affect climate as well...couple with deforestation and making huge dams...

I think most important rule of thumb is there should be a clear and concise path or mode of action. Amidst the chaotic data overflow, it often helps to have something calming. Colors, fonts, layouts help all in this direction.
