Posted a much earlier version of this a while back, made some decent progress on it since then, but still a ways to go. Let me know what you think!

So I'm sort of nitpicking your comment here, but the purpose of @"" for verbatim strings wasn't created just to deal with directory slashes, it's just a handy way of writing string without the need for escaping in general. Also, if you real

There's also a really nice pre-existing library for this: PathJS. https://github.com/mtrpcic/pathjs Been using this for a while, with a lot of success.

Since everyones already covered the Jetty side of it, I personally like Freemarker as a templating language. http://freemarker.sourceforge.net/ It's pretty simple and straigtforward, its what I use instead of JSP. Also, if you're doing we

For rich client apps, having a router is useful in my experience. I've not used backbone however. What makes you think it seems out of place?

I'm pretty sure that both Microsoft and Sony are on a 10 year plan with both of those systems, which means you won't hear anything about a PS4 for another couple years at least. That said, this seems like a pretty smart move on Nintendo's p

This seems like it's interesting but could really use some audio. This definitely comes off as a slide deck that someone used in a presentation and wasn't meant to just be read. Does anyone have a video version of this by any chance?

This is a side project I've been working on for a few months now, and I'd really appreciate your input on it. If you're an artist or designer or just like art, it'd be amazing if you requested a beta account. Let me know what you think or i

No, it's actually been around much longer than that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brookss_law Not even sure if that's the origin of the phrase.

For a weird, distorting effect, press control to zoom all the way out and pan around. It seems that it tries to put you're view point "behind" the actual camera location. Not sure if it's a "bug" or not, but it looks neat nonetheless.

Ok... again, not trying to be combative but: a) This still doesn't really answer my question. b) Would it be illegal to put up a website and say that essentially no one can use it? Aside from some exceptions like discrimination, ToS's defin

Not being combative, just genuinely curious, but how is this not legal? If it's part of their ToS it seems like it would be enforcable.

If you haven't seen this yet, this is probably the best example of a hack like this that I've seen. It was submitted for a contest that radiohead held, and I believe was the winner (it takes about a minute to get rolling): http://www.youtu

As someone else mentioned in the thread, make the email address optional, with the understanding that without it they can't recover lost passwords. This is probably an unacceptable solution for some sites, but I can definitely think of case

Is this really any different? They're just instating the VP instead, who I imagine is probably not much better. This might make sense if they're planning to hold another election shortly thereafter. That way, at least the figurehead is out

Somewhat related, but Joel Spolsky has a really excellent tutorial on Mercurial: http://hginit.com/ It covers a lot of the conceptual differences between the distributed version systems and subversion, and gives a similar sort of story te

Honestly, I feel like the title here is a little misleading. The message from the netbeans team is that they just didn't have enough resources to support both Rails and upcoming Java 7 and so they had to drop development. They also are enco

Yeah, the percentage statistics are worded kind of oddly. I tried spain, which has about 18% unemployment rate vs the US's 9%. It tells me I have a 94% greater chance of being unemployed in spain. It took me a couple seconds to get my head

Instead of directing them to a BB, direct them to a site you control and embed a self-submitting form via post. Probably more difficult from a social engineering perspective, but just as effective.

I'm not an expert on this but I'm guessing with tomcat being so ubiquitous they do an initial release of the new version, and then it takes a few revisions out in the wild for them to deem something production stable. I think its the equiva
