This kind of abuse reminds me of Carmen Ortiz.
As a veteran C++ developer, I actually quite enjoy Javascript. Once I understood that Prototypes are linked lists and that *this is a pointer that changes according to 2 simple rules, Javascript became quite easy. I…
His voice is so different!
How is it different than someone selling barely modified WordPress websites? I'm not into that line of work but obviously, many small businesses in America rely on selling custom open source software.
I read this and immediately thought of this : Retires at 35, explores the world for 30 years Claims Social Security at 62. http://weknowmemes.com/2015/05/25-ways-the-baby-boomers-had-...
Everytime something like this comes out, I think the following : Wouldn't it be great if I could develop and debug this under Windows with VS and deploy my release with Linux. The network libraries are always Linux(and…
Chrome crashes and freezes all the time too.
If you haven't seen a Brendan presentation, they are quite enjoyable. Last time he was playing some zombie video game in the middle of his presentation. He insisted on not killing zombies with a shovel using instead…
Can you imagine if we could have had Lua in the browser from the start? So much time would have been saved. Now Javascript, with ES6, is good enough to rival Lua in features. This kills the intent to learn Lua because…
His last video was 2 years ago. Maybe he has a new hobby! I looked at some of his pure math videos. Basic stuff but I thought he explained well. If you visit this HN post and you decide to investigate further, just…
Remember that the computer chess AI is actually a snapshot of the intelligence of a human being. I don't see this distinction made enough. If you are struggling against a game, you are struggling against the one who…
Are there more of these with more languages and tools?
Very interesting. Great designs. Now I know who is Paul Rand and hopefully, a little more aboutt the importance of logo design.
This is the GNU assembler AT&T syntax though, which is known to be horrendous. Other assemblers have much nicer syntax.
I like the exam idea but it's not really the best way to test the skill of a person. You wouldn't hold an exam for the best painter or the best sculptor. I feel like computer programming (and related jobs) in general is…
What if I'm a skilled worker coming from France or Germany, with no education debts and I get the same job you have? How would you feel?
This... Boost will ruin your compile times. I'm addicted to instant compilation so I avoid template hell.
Socket.io is wayyyyy more noob-friendly. If you send json over the wire, socket.io automatically converts it to a javascript object or array for you, ready to be used. The best feature however is that you can send emit…
School is absolutely fine for learning what you need. Better than doing it by yourself. The real problem is that it's A) Necessary for certain jobs B) Way too expensive. Making people decide to go autodidact
I actually like the HTML/CSS solution too. http://thomaspark.me/2015/01/pubcss-formatting-academic-publ... It's more difficult but I feel like there's a lot more potential.
I didn't know some countries could still play Sim City. A tunisian friend was talking to me about the same thing. A new coastal city, big investments coming in, we make this city a center for investments, arts,…
7 is with the instanceof pattern. You add an if statement at the beginning of the function. If "this" is global you return a new object.
Amazing slides. Great work. The quizz at the end is pretty hard too. Is anyone here confident about the answers? https://gist.github.com/concise/a20b3e5d7e9c61dfbcc5
It's good for the brand though.
I was like you. Then I got serious RSI problems because I played competitive foosball while having an unhealthy lifestyle. I'm now almost fully healed after 2 years. My resolve is a lot stronger now because I've had to…
