This is great advice - I would like to add a bit of philosophy that someone once gave me: Experience is more important than achievement.

sortable tables in HTML are nearly impossible to implement. This is definitely a solvable (and solved) problem. and where do you sort? front end or back end? how much data are processing? If you have all the data loaded clientside, sort

I recently worked on a friend's macbook and this is the first thing I noticed; I'm a linux guy. After a less then ten second explanation, I got used to it. Personally, I thought it was a nice touch - there's almost no added cost to the user

At my school, there are only a few classes that are different between Software Engineering and Computer Science majors. CSC students have a little more focus into theoretical computing and theory, whereas SE tends to be more practical with

It looks like jQuery versions get updated occasionally in that repo, but you'll have to check and see when 1.7 gets put in. My recommendation would be to maintain dependency versions yourself, i.e. download the version of jQuery you want to

I have been using Backbone for a while and love it. It is lightweight, is as flexible as you want and helps to organize code. Here is a good HN post on Backbone and Sproutcore, with a great comment by the creator of Backbone: http://news.y

GitHaven.com is down for me. I would be a lot more interested if a demo was up; I have been looking for something like this project.

This is fantastic - I loved the ant simulation! It was a bit cryptic to get some of the content; perhaps you could have an alternative and more straight forward navigation system.

It’s not very common to actually code anything in Ruby. You pretty much only see people coding Ruby while using the Rails framework which governs the whole thing. This seems like an unfair generalization. I have come across many large no

Thanks for the advice! I definitely want to work with startups and small teams, so this seems quite applicable. I am pretty active on Stack Overflow and Github, so I think I'll put those on my resume as well.

This is neat. Although, I can't get by without some VIM commands and is there a way to export text?

The single page aspect is mostly just for 'slickness' - content is displayed instantly, animations are used and the page only needs to be loaded once. It is becoming more popular among the web; many portfolio sites that I come across are on

Good point. The first URL is really how the page is intended to be accessed. I'm going to work on an option to enable using pushState for navigation which would use hashless URLs. The only downside is that users would have to enter the site

Good for them! Bootstrapping at its finest.

Neat. This is the first time I have seen this. First impression: I'm not really sure what this is solving - the syntax is a bit ugly and the projects seem unstructured. Seems like the ability to customize the stack is minimal. I couldn't fi

I think the languages that are out there are fine, Python, Ruby, JS, Java, Go, etc... An innovative framework that utilizes an established language for web development would be more beneficial, IMO.

I like the site. A few notes: - Running on Heroku is not really an asset security wise. I would put something more significant to ensure users that your site is secure. - Make sure your site is secure; it will be attacked often and by profe

Some things require manual testing. Animations and a lot of visual stuff needs to be analyzed holistically; there are sometimes visual quirks that are near impossible to write tests for but can easily be detected from someone quickly viewin
