Hold up, is that illustrious Sprout Social alumni Dex Horthy? If you and Ravi are in SF we should catch up after the holidays.

I also came from a XAML background to React and had the same feeling.
This is a long shot, since most people have a love/hate relationship with the VisualStateManager, but I have been trying to build a declarative visual state thing over at https://github.com/jgable/react-vsm. It's not done, only messed around over a couple weekends, but the gist is there.

Seems like the author combined the spec side of mocha with should.js and a stub/mocking library, focused it on node and polished it up with some neat conventions and utilities.
I'll probably give it a shot on my next project. I'm interested in finding out if it went the route of throwing exceptions for error reporting like mocha, or something else.

Like the GP, food is one of the glorious luxuries of life.
The great thing about having values is that each person can value what she/he wants. You and GP value food, soylent green dude seems to value experimenting and optimizing his body/brain with food (lack/substitution of food?). I'm not hating on either one of your values, but pretty much everyone thinks "food is good" (to put it simply) so that isn't really gonna pique everyones interest like soylent green guy over there.

I don't think that's a fair comparison. What if sleeping on the floor and not showering made you think better and your body healthier? It's not simply a privation technique, he seems to be doing it to hack his body for better performance. Although kind of anecdotal evidence, the article mentions several mood and energy changes when not on the soylent diet (I think those things could just as likely be a change in environment/routine though).

I was the technical reviewer on a recent book called "Design for Software". It's a good introduction to design with a focus on an engineering audience.

I also came to post a link to that book. I thought it was along the same lines as the OA, but at times I found Crawford bordering on being a Luddite (the remark about bathroom sink sensors IIRC). How'd you feel about it?

The concept of themes looks interesting. For anyone looking to see what a theme looks like, take a look at https://github.com/jashkenas/docco/tree/master/resources/par..., though it doesn't look like that is the same theme as the backbone docs.

I'm not going to pile on in the GH issue, but I'll at least confirm that his reaction may have been a little over the top. You had good form on your PR and specifically mentioned the "feature request" nature of it.
To be fair, he looks to have had a pretty bad experience with other people doing in-line file changes straight from Github and trying to push them through as PR's (see the other open PR). He was probably just frustrated and lashing out. He needs a CONTRIBUTING.md in his root to explain his preferences.
Re:How not to respond to pull requests
on Friday March 01, 2013 @01:55PM (#5306156)
From the original PR comment: "This pull request is a more of a feature request with proof of concept really."
It's definitely not the norm, but if it were my project I would appreciate the working example. You can pull that changeset into your own repo (probably another branch or something) from the command line and test it out without merging the PR.

Something that most people might not know about this is that you can spin up at least 2 small linux instances on this plan.
I run a Node.js app on a small Ubuntu instance with git based deployment (great guide here based on ec2: http://cuppster.com/2011/05/12/diy-node-js-server-on-amazon-...). Right now this server also runs my Mongo server, but as we scale I'll probably move it to its own instance.

I'm interested in why you think this comment you made contributed anything to the discussion here. I'd encourage someone who _can_ downvote, to downvote you, since I can't.
Re:JavaScript Time Zone Conversion with Walltime

That's an interesting post, and an equally interesting library. However, Walltime is more concerned with the displaying of dates than the detection of timezones.
The example I give from the post explains it like this "... if I’m a user in Australia, and I want to post something at 3:00 AM Chicago time, where the majority of my followers are, how do I calculate that accurately with JavaScript and send it up to the server?". Or, if I'm a user in Australia, but I want to display all my dates on the site like I'm a user in Chicago, how would I do that?
Take a look at the github page description for more info about the type of problems it can help with: http://sproutsocial.github.com/walltime-js/
