Ah, the controversial hamburger icon. I have taken to calling it the 'Junk Drawer' myself because it is the place where you put everything that you can't think of a better way to represent in the UI. I think it has a place, b

I hadn't even thought of this specifically, but after it was mentioned in the initial post I realized just how much that is my use case most of the time and how often I am fighting with google maps to accomplish what are relatively sim

I relate to this and give a lot of credit to my father for teaching me work ethic that I never knew I would need at the time. School was easy and I never learned to work hard at academic work, but I sure worked hard finishing a basement, ch

Pretty cool little tool. We have a product that is a combination of ASP.NET Razor views, Backbone, jQuery, and more as a result of several different partial transitions of the codebase. Sometimes it is difficult to figure out which framewor

I really like this idea. I use Pocket pretty heavily for bookmarking, but there has been something off about it and nearly any other solution that I used that I couldn't quite pinpoint. I think this is part of the issue. I save a set o

It's great to see other people's solution to these types of challenges in React. We have been implementing something similar for images because the existing components didn't meet our needs. I look forward to digging into you

This is a real problem in our industry. We all like to think that we 'know' how to write good code, after all we read 'Clean Code' once. That, combined with either overconfidence in our abilities or the negative percepti

I watched the video of a Pharo demo linked in the article and it was amazing. I don't know how much of that capability comes from the way Smalltalk is built vs just a clever IDE feature. I imagine this would be much easier to implement

This is also a reason that Cloud9 makes sense for us. The group I work with is focused on teaching programming to people who aren't traditionally represented in software development and sometimes they don't even have their own com

I really hope that the Cloud9 service keeps running, and maintains the free version that it currently provides. I have been using Cloud9 with the Michael Hartl Rails Tutorial to teach new programmers the basics of programming with Ruby and

I don't understand why anybody thinks that Uber and Lyft will be the ones to capitalize on a fleet of automated cars. Once auto manufacturers have solved the arguably harder problem of creating automated vehicles, why wouldn't the
