I recall all of my more eventful dreams from that age (and younger, but only back to 5 or 6), and that particular dream was definitely a welcomed shock to my young mind at the time.

Fix issue 1, rename store.del() to store.remove() marcuswestin (author) 18 minutes ago Will the API be stabilized? Or can you alias method names in cases like this, rather than clobbering them?

I took a job hiring a RoR ninja and jQuery expert as lead dev (for an alpha app) and immediately rewrote it in Django and MooTools/Google Closure. You can know the trendy stuff but still develop with solid software, provided you have some l

Google Closure's codebase, which powers Gmail, etc. is well over 33MB, and ExtJS' size includes image assets, etc. So you can see that this is a poor metric. ext-base.js and ext-all.js, minified, are fairly light. Further, there's no ExtJS

This describes a mild form of insomnia. The sort where you have a hard time falling asleep, staying asleep, and having quality sleep when you do, is the most difficult to treat. I don't enjoy it.
