Re:How Expedia Buys Its Way To The Top Of Google on Sunday December 29, 2013 @01:36PM (#6980627)
Funny how Matt Cutts was all over the Rap Genius article on HN right after it came out and he's nowhere to be found here. Must be the millions Expedia spends on Adwords, or my cynicism, one of the two.
Re:Alan Turing pardoned [pdf] on Monday December 23, 2013 @04:35PM (#6956648)
"graciously pleased to extend our grace and mercy".. what a bunch of garbage. I hope that is toned down for the actual pardon.

we've actually been using this hack for months and i'm sure there's a group of people who also have, who don't write about it. :/

I bet many products have a similar 'impersonate' feature. Nothing wrong with that if you take proper precautions.
Re:ZenPayroll Is Not Hiring Hackers on Tuesday October 15, 2013 @03:57PM (#6555919)
you haven't lived until you've put pdb statements directly on a production machine and kept restarting the web server to catch a bug after days trying to catch it the normal way.
Re:ZenPayroll Is Not Hiring Hackers on Tuesday October 15, 2013 @03:52PM (#6555885)
isn't the hacker the first guy and the developer with experience the second guy?

Re:Cassandra vs MongoDB For Time Series Data on Wednesday August 21, 2013 @05:01PM (#6253294)
I'm considering using Cassandra for time series data. What exactly did you mean by the columns were for the "period"? What is the period here?

Choose Backbone.js - the one true choice.
Re:Stereogram Tetris on Wednesday July 31, 2013 @10:20PM (#6138234)
You shouldn't be ashamed. "This is not Reddit" is a BS thing people who have no sense of humor say on here.
How come it doesn't let me downvote you?

It's a schooner.

bitching about someone making a quine relay takes like 10 seconds, though.
Re:GorillaScript on Sunday July 07, 2013 @03:32PM (#6003113)
While this is actually really awesome, I think a lot of the nastiness of JS can be dealt with by using a good JSHint plugin for your text editor (that highlights errors/etc as they happen). Hoisting, function scope, ==, var, using variables without defining them, etc - it'll catch many things.
