I agree with you, but the point is damn well hidden behind one of the crappiest analogies of all time: using duct tape is an indication that you're great engineer - but only if you are one of the naturally talented "pretty boys" who know

The article to which this one is a response, has exactly the opposite point of view: http://perl-yarg.blogspot.com/2009/06/darkpan-schmarkpan-sto... As, to some extent, does a followup from another developer: http://use.perl.org/~chromat

I thought I wasn't clear enough about that part, and so it seems. So I'll clarify. Earlier, when I was learning to play guitar, I really really wanted to become a good guitar player. So, I spent countless hours to practice, but I wasn't adv

Well, I find it insulting when somebody comes and tells people how they should enjoy their music. I think your comment pretty much validates my image about the people who think they are better in listening to music than others. What has a

Where did you learn that? To me, art is about experiencing things, not "conversation". Art mostly just sits there to be seen or heard, and it will not care about my saying or thinking. Art may "talk" to me, but I can't talk to art. To your

Many of the commenters here seem not to understand the setup: when a bullying "relationship" has been established, it already has become a difficult issue. Standing up against a bully works - but only when it is a fair show of balance of

Kids are really good at low-level social dynamics. They know the balance and go with the flow. That's how bullying often is so successful. For a bully, only limiting factors are fear of punishment and disapproval by peers. If making bullyin

I find it rather corny that a page promoting use of HTML Canvas uses Flash itself to represent textual headings on the page. (Noticed it when scrolling with the mouse wheel suddenly malfunctioned as the cursor hit the space right to a s

I don't believe that to be the case. Our temperaments are quite hard-wired in our brains. IMO a better approach is to: - honestly learn about oneself, including the sides one or others might deem negative - accept oneself as such - learn to

Is this really worth an article? iPhone app developers must feel helpless in the face of this new, uncontrollable twist in the history of software development! I believe that most of the developers have had to take this kind of thing into a
