I'll second that. If - nay when - you screw up, admit it right away and figure out how to fix it. It really will make a huge difference in how useful you are. Goes for other parts of life too.

You have me a bit confused. You say that I could have picked better examples, but then pretty much agree with me wholesale. So it seems I picked exactly the right example, at least if my intention was to support my own point. That point b

Depends on your perspective, I guess. The difference between not knowing how to program and learning, say, ruby is a fair bit larger than the difference between knowing how to program in php and learning ruby. Take php and ruby (two languag

Some people pour way too much emotions into the choice of programming languages. PHP is fine and no matter which language you start out with, switching to a new one later isn't a big deal - They are pretty much the same underneath the

That would be pretty bad proof though. If you ignore the chit-chat, which is just the authors writing style, and the ugly colour scheme, the essential part is here: http://www.apachetutor.org/admin/reverseproxies#d13 T

Oh, come on. It's pretty simple. You google a bit around for it and find some 3 year old blog post that tells you what to do. You'd probably have to do the same for nginx anyway. I prefer nginx' configuration syntax over apac

Oh yes, and within EU you can transfer money bank-to-bank at the same cost as domestic transfers (Which is to say near nothing). How about that?

Seems there is a bug, since this: .Exactly(1).Of(".") expands to this: (.{1,1}) Which is wrong, as dot is a meta-character. It should be escaped.

Yeah, the Kannada one tripped me up too. I figured it must've been some inuit language - Only afterwards did I realise it's an Indian language (No, the other kind of indians). And good luck distinguishing between scandinavian lang

Yet this bad apple sunk one department and then got transferred to a highly profitable one. It sounds to me that he is very well connected or otherwise good at office politics. Taking him on would likely end in defeat. I would suggest to ge

Sure, there's a lot of noise in there. What I mean is that given enough endorsements, you kind of tend to get most endorsements in the skills you actually work with. It does not say much about how well you perform in those, but for sea

People love to hate the endorsement system, but I have found that while I get endorsements from people who clearly aren't qualified to asses my skills, it still ends up such that my most-endorsed skills are actually fairly close to rea

If you invest under a certain threshold you can actually deduct the full amount from taxes in case of failure. Don't recall the details, but it makes for a pretty sweet deal for angel investors.

In a typical loosely typed language, such as php et al., just keep the query and the data separate. E.g.: $params = array(); $sql = "select * from foobars where 1"; if (isset($_GET['name'])) { $sql .=

It doesn't even make sense. The problem is in the client side drivers/apis. That has absolutely nothing todo with the underlying storage system.

That's a good point. Although, so far, the project has evolved pretty well, so it doesn't seem to remedy a current problem. An alternative strategy to ensure it to do so in the future, could be to build a team of open source contr

There's definitely some problems with this business model. On one hand, having a premium product means that Igor won't be contributing as much features to the open source version. On the other hand, it might discourage 3rd party d
