Why did this post disappear so quickly from the front page? It's very on-topic, and used to be HN's sweet spot.

I had searched for it to see what kind of feedback it was getting but came up empty: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/golang-nuts/marti... The Revel comment was more about a criticism I've read

This article seems to be pushing Martini, which at first glance looks interesting (though it doesn't appear to have been mentioned on the mailing list even once, so there may be some boosting involved). There is Revel, but it seems to

I believe the scheme is still generating the token server-side, no? "The server validates the login information and creates an authentication token for the user"

I'm not the author, I'm just curious what people think of this approach. Does it sound reasonable?

Check the mailing list for this. There wasn't a large amount of discussion about mobile options when I last checked, but one solution seems to be what you've already listed above: Phonegap/Cordova. https://groups.g

My suggestion is to simply tell the complete and honest truth, in a kind and caring manner (if you value the friendship, you could let him know that). Every choice has a cost.

From a different perspective, has anyone ever taken the time to read local health department restaurant inspection reports (if available)? I assume most people here eat at restaurants without too much concern, but if you ever read the repor

And yet I see a lot of job ads listing MongoDB. If I went into an interview and asked why they chose a document-oriented database, and that one in particular, think I'd be popular? (I like to play with new techologies, too, but it seem

Have you tried any of the freelance sites (oDesk, Elance, Guru, etc.)? My two concerns would be the rate and the amount of time it takes to become somewhat established on these sites, but I believe some flexibility on the rate--which wouldn

Any particular cost? I've read mixed reviews before (possibly here).

Don't let anybody discourage you--that's most important. Just do stuff. It isn't hard to find examples of young millionaires and billionaires in this industry.

That's another good question to ask: how often is overtime "required"? You can usually spot it in the job ads themselves (look for "fast-paced," frequent references to "deadlines," and similar language).

I don't think there's a sure-fire way to know, but you can ask upfront (even in the initial communications by email or phone) if it's a new position, or a "backfill." And during the phone or in-person interview you

I love leaving companies like that one. You should celebrate, with a beer, perhaps? (Kidding) When you took the job, did you sign an offer letter that outlined your employment status and role with the company? Just curious. I would think an

So strange--I went to see what, if anything, Gérard de Villiers had written about the situation, and noticed he just died. That always happens. I'll try not to think of anyone here.
