Sounds a lot like censorship to me. It's discrimination at the very least.

The Internet broke the whole idea of charging for a digital copy of something. We’re seeing a struggle of powers as old power tries to cling on to the idea of charging people for digital copies but it will end sooner or later. One needs to

Talk about this kind of journalism out of context (why you don’t trust a particular study, for instance) and you’ll be called a quack or conspiracy theorist.

Number of things written in a language isn’t really a good measure for its quality. There was a time when most things were written in COBOL or assembly. I think the main reason people write so much BASH is because there by default.

Perhaps we could use a similar law for software that says you have to opt-in for that. If you try to install Adobe Reader on a Windows PC, for instance, you have to untick to install the Ask! toolbar. I don’t like that

People still care about this? I thought JS was just an accepted requirement of browsing the web these days.

Out of interest how does your wiki integrate with your workflow? Or, in other words, what do you use it for?

Yep same here. org-mode FTW! You can use it as a personal wiki only able to keep all your data in plain text: no web server or database required. I still use filesystem as my primary organization so I only use hyperlinks occasionally. I put

Firefox has too many bugs and when you file them they don‘t get fixed very quickly at all. That’s why it isn’t my primary browser. Maybe something about that should be in this document.

I don’t see how you have inferred a fat controller and skinny model from my description. In fact I use the terminology of interfacing to describe what others here have interrupted back into MVC terms as a controller. That should be an indic

Oh, I’ve just realized another difference. The model, as I refer to it is different from that in MVC. In MVC the model is usually a representation of database tables or "an interface defining the data to be displayed or otherwise acted

by parallelist 13y ago
Interesting point. I’m not familiar with MVP but I guess I associate MVC with OO which I’m so over. I don’t see MVC as a pipeline of values but just kind of a way of vaguely separating things out and one that is easily and often corrupted.

I was thinking a scripting language really: JavaScript/CoffeeScript/TypeScript (presumably using Node), Lua, Python, etc. Even PHP is acceptable because I have evolved a particular style in that language that I find makes it signi
