Or, perhaps he simply finds it amusing to post his ever-odd thoughts and watch the reaction. Does that have to be cocky? Or, perhaps I give him a pass for whatever he does, because I enjoy his personality. In any case, it doesn't seem to me

No. You you do your thing. I'll do this. I don't want to have to run another command to see what lines have changed in my file. I want small, non-intrusive icons in the gutter without doing a damned thing.

I use both. If I need a full diff, fugitive is great. Sometimes I just want to scan to see what lines I changed in a a file. In other words, it is impractical to use this plugin to find out what _files_ you've changed. It is great for findi

It's actually a lot easier, unless you have next-to-zero traffic, to ask _them_ to take an action that puts the info in your inbox, rather than dig in logs, which could have that specific user's information buried amongst hundreds of other

I think, essentially, he is saying that you end up spending time maintaining your template, losing much of the benefit of the template, depending on how often you start new apps. I have found this to be true at a certain threshold of compli

If he is near Indianapolis, it could help to get involved in the local hacker scene. We have a pretty decent number of meetings and the like he could attend. See the calendar at http://indyhackers.org . I like to think we're pretty merit-b

What I took away from this, which, reading the other comments, is not at all what everyone got out of it, is that a bunch of graphs can be a great, but a system that automatically makes recommendations based on those graphs (taking some of

I don't see it as a "huge Ruby bug". Could you elaborate, please? I would understand "huge Ruby on Rails bug", though, by convention, it is still a fairly unlikely case. Edit: I think your edit answers my "Could you elaborate" question

They're both good. My open source repos are on Github. My private (thus client-related) repos are on BitBucket. I've been pretty happy with this configuration. Perhaps it helps that I know a few other companies and developers locally using

I don't think "mentioning Github" is the only piece people are using when deciding to question your communication skills. The word "microcontroller", except in certain extremely specialized situations, should probably not be used with a cli

Though it'll be interesting to see where this goes, it ultimately doesn't make me think better of TNW. It can only affect how I view Mr. Gross. Even then, it won't affect me much; the TNW author was a lesser character in the post, where the

I have been thinking the same thing while reading the article and comments. I haven't been to any of the larger conferences, so I thought I'd keep my mouth shut in case I'm simply missing something. There are a couple monthly tech meetings

Unsubstantiated, un-sourced theory: football players are helmeted, and that helment makes them feel as if 1) they are risking no head damage to themselves, and 2) there is no risk of head damage to others. Thus, lots and lots of targeting o

Internet Explorer 6 was released in 2001. I realize this is not central to the article, but "A lot of products were made in the end 90s that only worked in Internet Explorer 6" bothered me. Perhaps it simply made me feel old, but I'd like t

Nice! Would it be possible to add Ruby as a language example? I could likely figure out more-or-less how the code would appear using one of the other languages with which I am familiar, but it would be quite useful to see the changes to cod
