Basically... yeah :). Thanks for summing it up for me! Something else is I also don't really like IDEs. They really are a symptom of a larger problem. And the code navigation tools that ship with most Smalltalk's really suck. They're li

Kind of random that this got picked up... I wrote that post a long time ago... I think maybe sometime in 2009. I still maintain a production application I wrote with Seaside, however my day job now entails Sproutcore & Rails.

Sorry about that, it was intended to be an introduction to a series of articles comparing the two. You can e-mail me if you want more details.

I'm getting tired of all of the "geek humor" everywhere ( unicorns, ponies, lolcatz, etc.) however... I fit this description of a "poet" to a T. At one start up a few years ago, my title on my business card was even "Code Poet". I also happ

this x1000. I can't count the # of times my tests were failing on new code I wrote and it took me one second to look at is and say, "Oh yeah... this" and just flip -> to =>. So easy.

#1 question: What kinds of seeds are in there? Other questions: are the plants an invasive species? will they crowd out other plants? I imagine if they can be thrown "anywhere" they don't need much water/soil to survive. Like most of the w

Indeed, the title is misleading. The problem-solving abilities referenced in the title are those of solving the problem of finding what you want, not general problem-solving abilities.

My favorite part is towards the end, "rich stare into the abyss a bit more starkly than the rest of us." Not being rich, but being able to use my imagination and reason to figure out logical conclusions, I have come to realize that it is no

Most VC's are backed by enormous pension funds and/or other group retirement vehicles. This is how they can afford to bet large sums of money on multiple companies with an expected payoff of only 1 in 10 companies on long time frames. The

I always try to appreciate the context of the times when a story was written. Learning a little more of the external context within which a story was written can, at times, enhance the understanding of the story. This might be a story that

Geezeo.com should be on that last, as I wrote their first version in Rails for them ~4yrs. ago. However I believe they've moved their official headquarters somewhere to the wilds of Connecticut.

I got to "this app wants to see all of your browsing history" and thought to myself, "why the hell would they want that?" So I clicked cancel and didn't install it.

Each point release typically bumps the version of Google's V8 engine thats included too. So its bugfixes + the occasional performance optimization from Google.

He does say that after a few weeks he expects to get hired. But he should totally charge an hourly rate instead of free. I know people would pay for it.

Cool. I noticed you're using Joyent too. I'm just starting a personal project on my own no.de smartmachine I got a few months ago.

Does the image processing happen in a child process in node? I'm curious how your code does the heavy CPU without blocking node's main thread.

I have a facebook account, I had to make it to do development for a former employer. I rarely login, and given a choice I'd much rather use my Twitter or Github login. If facebook is my only option, I just don't login. My time is much bet

Except that right now when someone wants to try your gem and doesn't have XCode installed... they can also still grab their install disc. Nothing precludes them from doing that instead of buying & downloading XCode 4. Also... chances

My data is stored in CouchDB. I've written a sort of poor-man's ORM for it and have filled up my image with model objects a few times when I failed to properly detect cycles in the object dependencies. But Gemstone/S is probably different,

I'm using Pharo, Cog & Seaside 3. My problems (in my opinion) are from Smalltalk being image based. The IDE is built into the image too which is cool... and annoying. When you upgrade to a new version of Pharo, you're upgrading your ID

I have a project at work that uses CouchDB & node.js, but it isn't hosted. I have Cloudant, CouchOne & no.de accounts, but haven't had enough free time to finish a side project to put them to good use. Node & couch together are
