I don't detest your thought, I just find it ridiculous. If you want to use the life as software analogy, here's one. Life is about making choices, and choices involve tradeoffs. If life was like software, to remain free to move around in an

While I think I understand you, and maybe a little sympathetic to keeping the language little, I simply cannot agree because what you said is basically contradictory. It's same old argument I guess, but MIPS is simple and consists of only v

For some reason CherryPy's score doesn't quite correspond to its actual simplicity.

In the year 2012 when you have a 3D view for DOM, you still can't reorder nodes or edit the inner html in the markup panel. What the hell are those crap on the developer menu anyway? Oh right they are there because you still can't do live e

As a long time webdev, I too took a fews years back in around 05,06 to figure out how misleading w3school's content is, but since then, I've compiled a list of resource to help myself relearn the webdev process. But be warned, there's no sh

Haha I knew that post was going to be unpopular. FYI, Opera had been free as in beer since 2006, Safari on Windows since 2007. Irrelevant to the browser market of course because either had the number of extensions FF had available. Opera al

Not to discredit Firefox for spearheading our revolt against the IE monopoly, but I think Firefox has sometimes been given too much credit for everything from standard compliance to innovation, and not enough credit to other browsers on the

The problem is not callback, the problem is that callbacks exists in Javascript. Callbacks themselves, when used wisely, can often enhance code readability, hell LISP has had function references since forever, but I think the most complain

This is nice if you just want a really really lightweight date humanizer with no i18n support. If you want a full-blown date/time parser/formatter/humanizer, I highly recommend moment.js http://momentjs.com/

It would nice if there was an article to summarize all the ways of emulating a class in Javascript. Over the years I've seen a dozen different ways and I never know what's the pros and cons of them, or at least the principals behind them. A

That's a little weak as an argument isn't it. SQL and the relational model has nothing to do with stored procedures and you certainly don't have to, or need to use stored procedures for reporting. In fact, prior to 2005, MySQL didn't suppor

And you guys just demonstrated yet another reason why I choose Python for my go-to scripting language. Semicolons are completely redundant in Python and the language is so clean and the style guide PEP 8 is so natural, you rarely hear about

All I want to know is, will Andrew Ng still teach the ML class on Stanford or only on Coursera now? I haven't taken his new ML class yet but a large part of why I want to sign up for that class in the Spring quarter is because of him.
