When you see billboard advertisements for apps which themselves rely 100% on advertising for revenue, that's when you know it's a bubble. It's as though ad-supported companies are advertising each other to keep the…
I think that a lot of people are missing out. I also feel like a lot of genuinely exciting projects get drowned out by the noise created by well-funded mediocre projects. There is a problem in society now whereby…
I think that pulling the core out into a separate engine is definitely the right direction and it will be interesting to see what framework they come up with. It definitely needs a clean slate - The Famous/Angular stuff…
From a development efficiency perspective, Famous is not as good as Angular or React. From a rendering perspective, it's not as good as three.js. It's not yet a leading tool. Jack of all trades, master of none. Maybe it…
Maybe if he tried to learn some of these other tools which he currently 'has no time for' - He would realize quickly that they pay for themselves in time saved. I guess it's probably more of a sentimental thing for him…

Overall, JavaScript is a great language. I don't find the prototype-based approach to OOP any less intuitive than the class-based approach. I much prefer it in fact. It just so happens that the prototype approach didn't…
Some apps have lower profit margins than others. Also some companies need to be able to integrate with their realtime channels on the backend (E.g. for doing custom realtime analytics, integrating with third-party…
It really depends on a lot of things such as how often users send messages on average and what kinds of messages (JSON or plain text?). The latest version of SocketCluster can handle 25000 concurrent users per CPU core…
SocketCluster's API is similar to that of Pusher so it can be a good self-hosted alternative: http://socketcluster.io/ - It's also designed with scalability in mind. You do have to manage presence yourself though but…
Really great news. I guess io.js fulfilled its purpose of shifting control of Node.js away from Joyent and giving it the vitality it needs to remain a leading backend technology.
"It seems that perfection is attained, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing more to take away." Great quote - It reminds me of the story of when Michelangelo unveiled the statue of David,…
Maybe if you had started programming at an earlier age like I did (instead of playing hide and seek with your friends), your wrist bones would have evolved a natural keyboard-optimized curvature and you wouldn't need…
I think there's no point trying to avoid memory leaks in older versions of IE. Circular references due to closures are too common and it's not worth messing with your code. IE users are probably used to getting a…
I think that the idea that you can succeed without "knowing what you're doing" may be more common to Silicon Valley. From what I've seen, the startup environment in most other places is not so forgiving.
I think that from the recruiter's point of view, there is an argument for either side. I really think that the employee that has been with multiple companies is often more 'talented' overall but they are usually less…
