Travel. 1) Your problem will be there for a few days but will most likely be forgotten in weeks. 2) Bring a notebook, write your journeys in detail. The food you eat, the tea you drink. 3) Observe local culture. 4) Take a lot of pictures. B

Out of the blue. I used to check out DimDim UI a year go to see how far they can use GWT. Never thought the next news coming out from them is this one.

There are less hype about US these days. That's all. US is no longer the powerhouse it used to be. US used to be a symbol of pride among SE Asia tourists: you have to visit US, smell the air, buy their bands, etc. These days, Japan and othe

I grew up in Asia (up until my high school year). Back then, my generation were influenced heavily by western culture: basketball, hip-hop, R&B, rap, pop, boy-band, baseball, pizza, steaks, computers. Many of my friends went to study ab

They do indeed. Funny though, I was cleaning up my bookshelves 2 days ago and I stumbled upon old books "Software Engineering in UNIX/C Environment" (1991)[Honest: I copied the book from my university library before I graduated a few years

The content of the book came from his essays (posted on his website). Whether it is worth or not, it depends on how you define worth. I used to buy the hype cycle out of recommended books by "the internet" (reddit, HN, blogs, etc), for exam

They had a chance to make it better when they re-wrote their app from Java to PHP no? (If... that is their main cause of failure. Which probably isn't.)

There's not enough detail of what kind of "gold platting" the author had done. Now I'm not an expert on "architectures" or "patterns" and my view is just a personal observation when I glanced over HN, slideshare.net, and InfoQ to some exten

Sometime I wonder what would happen in the near-future? Many brick-n-mortar stores (musics/cd, books, video-rental) where people used to sort of hang-out are now closing their doors and filing bankruptcy. Many young people are losing their

Will the world become a better place? That depends on whom you asked. From my perspective the world was a better place in the past but that's my personal opinions. Has India become a better country because of all the offshoring? Their GDP m

Depends where. In the US? poor souls kept getting blamed by management. IT is expensive says Management. So they offshore. Job is gone. Once industry sang the same song, we're done. No more IT practitioners in the US. The shift is happening

> They also tend to be the better programmers. Meh, people have different experience. Yours might be like that because you _are_ in that position. In my experience, most of these people tend to write quick hacky solutions numerous times

Hi mitchellh. I haven't used vagrant yet but the tool looks great! It will probably be a superb addition to my day-to-day toolbox (I'm a new VirtualBox user). Thank you for creating the tool. In a probably unrelated question to vagrant, wou

How about in the ballpark of a health specialist (doctor) salary? 200k at least? 300k? Or maybe pro-Athlete level salary? 700k/season (NBA, 2nd round draft) Am I exaggerate in terms of salary? probably... these days, who can learn every sin

Good post. Don't forget to pay your full-stack engineer with a full-stack money. Don't be cheap on them mkay? On the other hand, I'd like to have a full-stack CEO as well. Not just someone who can only say "make it work", "make it faster",

It's probably a very competitive market out there for her so perhaps she needs to "remind" her readers to hire her but not her ex-coworkers.

Music or not I'm guessing the problem that most people (programmers, in this case) have is the inability to focus/concentrate for a certain period of time and what they do is to find something to cling on. What if maybe the way we work as a
