Yesterday, Bryan Cantrill was on the homepage for learning via screaming at a server, now he's back here for an equally useful contribution :)

I agree. But no developer starts writing unshoddy code right away. There's a lot of really great developers that got their feet wet with dev work because Wordpress is immediately accessible and helpful. They just needed a playground to

Not every Wordpress developer is an amateur. Often times, as a programmer, it's easier for me to change my environment, language, or learn their stack to be helpful to them than it is for the company to switch their stack because of my

Opening line: "Data centers.....can be hazardous places for the workers...." In the list of "possible jobs to have", data centers are comparatively sterile. Loud? Yes. Lonely? Yes. Vast? Yes. Hazardous? That's a str

I have taught many software development classes, with dozens of students. It's completely open enrollment, no restrictions on age, experience, income, certainly not gender. Only 2 women ever asked, let alone attended. The 1st was takin

Maybe I'm missing something (it's late), but it shouldn't take years to figure out it's not an iframe or image, given the inspector/console is in every browser, right?

Digg It follows HN in principle in that it is: 1) curated, not by my "interests", or clicks, or browser history, but proper moderation (and puns!) and 2) doesn't do the ajaxy infinity-load content. It seems to be impossible t

I collect and log every item, food or otherwise, with mango in it, i.e. mangodb. You'd be surprised what forms mangos take these days. I build custom systems for managing and operating small/medium businesses, i.e. let a normal bu

I'm shocked the LG Gram doesn't get more attention. It's a dream come true laptop for a non-Apple developer. It took me months to actually find it after needing to replace my Vaio, but going 2 years strong with no issues what

I logged in simply to comment a huge "thumbs-up" to any Brian Cantrill reference. I've got an entire playlist of all his various talks around the interwebs, just to listen (and re-listen) in the background while coding. It ch

It takes a lot for me to comment on HN, but this review is frustrating. I couldn't be happier with my Remarkable 2, but I also researched what it could and couldn't do beforehand, then learned how to use it after it arrived. Somet

Having managed a dozen WordPress sites with eCommerce, half of which are multimillion dollar businesses, this is a obviously a blatantly false tirade. Like everything else, its greatest weakness is its greatest strength. PLugins make and br

Well isn't this just rich (in a poor way), considering Google is notorious over the years for making the display of their ad placements harder and harder to differentiate from actual search results, thus more and more misleading.... Ca
