I disagree that MVC is not well documented, but perhaps I've just learned where the good documentation is (for MVC.) That said, I have to agree that every time I've dived into PHP/RoR, there have been plenty of articles with

I've argued this point with friends for years. Individual characters (Mickey Mouse, Bart Simpson, James Bond, etc) and the like would be trademarked, and could only be used in new works by the trademark holder. Those works, however, wo

Why aren't characters trademarked instead of copyrighted? I feel like it would make so much more sense. Disney can have Mickey Mouse for as long as it wants, but the company has little to no financial need to keep 100-year-old cartoons

That's what I'm getting out of pretty much this entire post. As an asp.net mvc developer by trade, I could easily say that it could take me hours/days to get stuff done in node.js/rails/django/name-your-framewo

This is my problem right now. I recently quit my corporate job doing asp.net mvc for the financial industry in NYC. I'd like to move into a startup on the west coast, but I'm having trouble finding anything that uses asp.net mvc.

That's a good call. If while speaking to someone, you told them they could skip the month, they would likely think that no action is needed. Then, the average user's attention is probably gone by the time they get to "Skip as

In that case I agree that it would never be used as it was written, and suggest that the author must have jumbled the parameters. Calling the method as preg_replace($exif['Make'], '', $exif['Model']) would corr

The code in question seems to be removing any occurrences of the Make from the Model. This might be useful if you have a camera that sets the Model to contain the Make name, like setting Make="Nikon" and Model="Nikon D5000&qu

Had a similar experience a few months ago while out with my wife in NYC. We had the walk sign at a Y intersection. A driver came through the turn going at least 30 mph. He came within an arm's length of hitting us. I definitely pay more att

It's not that bad. I take weekend trips between NYC and [1 hour west of Chicago] multiple times a year. At around 870 miles, it's about a 13-14 hour drive with pit-stops. I usually split the trip into 2 days from NYC to Illinois, but only b

Interesting problem. How do Google's self-driving cars react to road problems such as bridge-collapses and sinkholes? Scanning for objects and avoiding objects which extend above the road level is obvious, but what about when the road cuts

In the US, there's a system called PrePass[1]. It's intention is to be used to allow a truck to bypass weigh-ins. The in-vehicle transponder has a red and green light on it. It could be repurposed to flash red when the vehicle triggers a to

I predict legislation saying that certain self-driving vehicles cannot be unmanned. This benefits the truck driver while still maintaining a reason to have one. Besides, someone will still have to fill the thing with diesel. In the long ter

As far as the integer intersection question goes, I wonder if the interviewer didn't think too hard before before saying that he never uses it. At least where I work it comes up from time-to-time. For instance, say we have a list of Users a
