Way to project, not sure how you extrapolated all that from my comment. My point is that when a bottom line is involved, you will see only a few options come to dominance once the dust settles. And while home grown efforts do bear fruit,

I hate to break it to HN, but we are not the norm. We're here because we long for more, and have the skills to make that yearning reality. So while every anecdote in the comments is true I'm sure for that person, for the vast ma

It's easier to write, test, debug, and maintain. I have apps now that a few dozen files, all <= 100loc replacing systems where the number of files is many more and the file sizes were 2000loc per file.

If a secure server is compromised, then none of this matters. You have to trust someone at some point.

Um, no, she's an idiot, and you're justifying it her stupidity.

This has nothing to do with being vocal about security. Yea, they're helping the technical cause, but if you don't want backdoors in everything, the CEO's need to talk to the public so they're aware, and sending letters

Literally, it means testicles, but more colloclially it means bullshit in every English speaking country I know of. edit: Apparently not. Just messaged my American buddy, and he thought it might be a wig for cows... So, maybe not American

It was very divided 4-5 years ago, predominantly when underscore and jQuery were both champing at the bit to be the top utility library. It's shifted towards not monkey patching, but it's not not absolutely decided for many devel

For the language, first read Apples Language Guide & Reference. It's free. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Swift/... I would recommend the iTunesU - Stanford iOS 8 Tutoria

It's almost impossible to open a restaurant for less than 100k, so I don't know what you are going on about. Even if the 50k was free money from daddy, and not a business loan mixed with life savings and a a second mortgage, it&#

An ad eyeball is an ad eyeball. I'd need to see some very solid metrics showing that eyeballs on old pages aren't as good as new.

I obviously misread your comment. My bad. Not a good day for commenting for me.

Ah, I made the assumption that a vegetable oil based plastic would at worst break down or go rancid. And tiny bits of rancid oil wouldn't be harmful. However, if they're using other chemicals to produce these, then it's enti

I don't see the issue even if the plastics are invisibly dispersed in the wild. I use styrofoam in my potting soils, for a reason.

This is probably illegal (garnishing for mistakes), so check with you local labour laws before doing this. Though I would recommend against this unless you want employees quitting or stealing from you.

Hey, that's great, I hadn't done a deep look for a while. Regardless, my point was more with using it as your only source of protein, which none of these address.

Some soy is fine, but if we're talking as completely replacing your meat, it could be too much estrogen like compounds. Hence breasts in men and an increased risk of breast cancer in women. I haven't seen enough studies to defin

I've been writing code professionally for 20 years, and as an armatur for 30. I can parse code much quicker if it has syntax highlighting. If you don't, that's fine, but it doesn't mean your more experienced or somehow
