Redundant functionality to JavaScript is redundant. That being said I'm all for designers having baby steps they can use to simulate some of the functionality of JavaScript. After all the days of the one line of JavaScript that does that cool effect are over now that you aren't cool if you don't use prototypes and 'modules.' JavaScript is getting to the point where if you don't use at least 3 libraries to make your onclick event handler you get publicly lambast.

Also who says you need to copy the color every time you use it?

This is how it works. If you have one important property that you want to change everywhere then you use the most specific target class necessary for each of those classes in a comma separated list attached to only that property then you can change them all later or add new classes to them.

.class, .anotherClass, .yetSomeOther .moreSpecificTarget {color:blue;}

Also if you want to simulate if / then statements then you write your most general classes first followed by your more specific classes. So:

.blue {color:blue;}

.blue.darker {color:rgb(4,4,179)};

It's even better than a conditional. It's a switch.
Correct. They're protecting french fries, too.

"I guess it varies from person to person and sport to sport."

That's it exactly. As I posted separately, what works for you may not work for the next person. Just look at how you can see some skinny people who seem to constantly eat a lot of crap, never work out, and yet still stay skinny, while you're trying to eat healthy, work out regularly, and still manage to do little better than maintain your current weight.*

*That, of course, doesn't mean the skinny guy is healthier, or in better shape overall, just that he's skinnier.

To be fair, the Closure suite has been around internally since roughly 2006/2007, and before then was extracted from working code within GMail & Google Apps that dates back to around 2003 & 2004. (I remember running across some of Paul Buchheit's code in Closure Compiler.) Prototype was brand new back then, JQuery didn't exist, SASS was several years off in the future. It doesn't really count as "not invented here" if it was invented here, and just not made public until somebody else independently reinvented it.

It's somewhat unfortunate that there're such long lead times between invention & publication, but also somewhat expected for a for-profit entity where basically everyone who works on open-source does so in their 20% time. There's also a strong desire on the part of many teams working on eventually-open-sourceable code to have it running in at least one production server, stably, with widespread adoption, to work out the kinks. I've worked on two projects that eventually plan to be open-sourced (and initiated one), but the teams involved don't believe them stable enough to be opened up quite yet. (This despite one of them being in widespread use internally, and the other one running in production in both Google Search and Google Maps.)

I think Max Levchin once said something like "If there's doubt about your co-founder, there's no doubt." Meaning that the moment you have doubts about your co-founder, you should break it off and cut your losses. Hope this provides some perspective.

That's not the case for variables. The case for variables is when you have a set palette for the site, and you want the border of some elements to match the background color of other elements to match the text color of still other elements. Or you want to set padding on a set of classes, but then want to set the width of your left column to be some chosen value minus the padding of the center column. Or you want to flip your layout in RTL languages so that everything is reversed.

CSS won't let you do any of this natively.
Hi, I'm one of the others who suggested "eat less".

Is it "that simple"? No, of course not. The body is stupidly complex and variability between individuals is enormous.

On the other hand, is it "that simple"? Yes, of course it is. Chemical reactions in human beings are much as anywhere else.

What matters for weight loss purposes is that your internal mechanisms are, for the most part, not observable. I personally can tell when I fall into gluconeogenesis (the breakdown of amino acids into glucose) because I can smell the ammonia produced as a by-product. But otherwise I wasn't born with a dashboard with helpful graphs of my insulin sensitivity over the past 5 minutes, my current circulating grehlin, testosterone levels or any one of a hundred variables that will have some effect on what happens to me today.

So what can I observe?

I can observe:

* My current weight on a scale
* My current physical appearance
* Some calliper fold measurements
* Weight lifting performance
* How much I am eating

And so I use these to control my weight, strength, appearance and so on. Because that's what I have.

As I said elsewhere, it's more important to find a dietary approach that works for you. Some people are good at counting calories (not me). Some find it surprisingly easy to give up carbs or fast or whatever. So long as you find an approach, that's what matters.

Maybe one part of the reason you hate them is that they have been associated with so much marketing bullshit and pseudo-religion. It helps to realize that actually there is not one unitary concept of what 'OO' means. You can defeat your object allergy if you stop engaging with people's rhetoric and ideology about objects, and just evaluate particular language features individually.

If the same task can be done with a function/sub or with an object, objects typically add two problems:

1. Added boilerplate: before I do work I typically instantiate an object, etc. In many cases it is really obvious that this is just adding pointless lines of code and pointless plumbing. It doesn't help that the big OO languages have accreted so many bad, verbose coders and cargo-cult methodologies, enhancing the extra-boilerplate effect.

2. Unlike locals inside a function, objects' mutable state is accessible in multiple places at multiple times (and merely using getters and setters does not fundamentally change this - and add even more ridiculous boilerplate of the sort which causes people to have gigantic IDEs writing highly repetitive code for them)

Here's what you are missing: objects are just a kind of mini-program, with a more flexible interface and execution model than subprocesses. It's a generalization of the subroutine and largely equivalent to a coroutine.

Even if that doesn't work for you, they are still handy as 'bundles': e.g. a point in 3-space with x, y, z components AND an attached set of methods for doing normal things like dot products, all passed around together. This isn't necessary, but it can make things neater just like bundling certain wires together into a cable.

Evaluate them like 'here is this thing, what can it be used for?' You might decide you like objects, or perhaps just that they have their place.

Caveat, ignorant answer coming: what I understand is as follows: we know that entangled quantum states can "communicate" through space-time (what Einstein called "spooky action at distance"). The paper therefore proves that either unconnected (not entangled) quantum states can communicate, or the wave function is real. They proceed to conclude that the first member of the alternative is less likely (justifiably I suppose).
"... "They're kind of like religious fanatics trying to get to their mecca – they all want to get to Silicon Valley," Horton said of Australian entrepreneurs. But he said it was often perilous to try to make the jump alone as investors will "just take you apart" if you're not across all of your plans and details, particularly the financials and how much you want to raise. ..."

Lawyers in Australia must fear YC because they really do miss out on this market, hence the fear tactics displayed here.
If you write some gnarly asynchronous GUI code, it is a lot easier to point to why it is nice to have objects.

(And MVC, for that matter).

I think this is part of why objects blew up in the 80s
I personally suspect that in a lot of cases "my skinny friend is a pig" anecdotes are actually cases of availability bias. We vividly remember he or she tucking into 3 hamburgers. We don't account for the 2 days of nibbling on celery that came before it.

edit: I too have skinny friends on the must-kill list.
Totally agree.

While it's good to always review your tools & skills... spending lots of time looking at sparkling new things could be better focused on i) getting work done or ii) improving your proficiency with current tools :)
I guess if you already used one or more of the Closure Tools, you might want to use Closure Stylesheets over Sass, even if Sass was slightly better.

Whether you want it or not, software is math[0][1]. It has nothing to do with it being "ones and zeroes" and everything to do with the work of Turing.

> You can't even explain that meaningfully in terms of math

Oh yes you can. You just lack the tools and understanding for it, and it can get very complex, very quickly, but it can be done, as the Church-Turing thesis (recursion, lambda-calculus, and Turing machines are equivalent) is mathematically proven. And people do actually use that to formally prove correctness of software[2].

Some feedback:

1. About the name: Non-native speakers may not know what "poach" means. I've lived in California for four years in the past and I was confused.

2. The cartoon fox looks like it's about to steal my mouse. It looks like you're trying to sell me lockpicking tools...

3. I think you should better explain what recruiters get out of this versus what LinkedIn offers.

4. Your landing page is really two landing pages: one for the people (they're the product), and one for the recruiters (they're the customers). I think you should better seperate the two, or just drop one of them altogether.
"In addition to the usual way in which companies create jobs, Jobrupt.com helps challengers to create new or claim existing job positions by publicly manifesting the value using a simple form without any resumes." Everyone, I would appreciate if anyone can give some feedback especially about the idea of people initiating job applications.
The browser looked worse. I suspect that really slow dragging is still an issue in some places. It still is head and shoulders better than old versions and I confused the lack of bouncy scrolling with lag in menus.

> When there are two very established solutions in the market, Sass and Less, you need to point out why these two come up short and why you are coming out with something new. Simply stating "we have a Google version of the tools you already use with the same feature set" isn't a very compelling sales pitch.

You need to understand that when an announcement like this is made, the development behind it happened over the course of years.

It isn't as if a few days before the announcement blog post is linked on HN, somebody made the decision "we can use Less, or Sass, or write our own. Screw those guys, let's write our own and release it open source!"

I gotta say, you raise a good point, but I'm not sure using Carmack as an example here is going to work, because patents are supposed to be for things that an ordinary person in that field of work would not be able to come up with. Carmack is far from ordinary.
Let's not forget that this is Carmack we're talking about. The fact that one of the best 3D graphics programmers in the industry has invented something independently does not tell us much. This thing happens in science all the time and not seldomly for things that are far from trivial.

Software patents are ridiculous, but not because (or only if) they're trivial.
Charging $5 per profile view ($50 per 10) is simply outrageous.

A lot of people are weighing in on the opinion that using agencies costs significantly more. As a Tech Recruiter working for one of those agencies, let me add some weight to your argument.

Regardless of how niche the job I am trying to fill is, I will get hundreds of applicants and speak to dozens of people in order to send three suitable CV's to a job. The main reason most employers justify large recruitment costs is down to the fact that recruiting is a massive time sink. Finding the candidates, screening each applicants CV, trying to get a hold of those of potential interest, spending approximately an hour with each suitable candidate, etc.

The impression I get from this poachme as a potential customer is that I would be paying $50 to see 10 candidates where the only info I have exposure to is a company name and a paragraph or two from the candidate on why they think they are great. I get close to the same level of info direct from Linkedin purely by searching peoples profiles and that doesn't cost a penny.

I'm itching to see a start-up disrupt the recruitment industry and change the hiring model for good. Unfortunately this isn't it.
Just because it's interesting to you or the author doesn't mean it's interesting to everybody else. I've seen many posts by programmers who think they discovered something great and it turns out to be something others have seen 100 times.

As far as I understand it, MVP is all about determining whether there might be customers out there for you. (It's answering the question "Is anyone actually going to buy this thing?").

So staying small and out of the public spotlight to iterate on failure is valuable (and doesn't produce any negative PR).

If you have to go open beta to get that feedback, then do so. If you can get away with a private beta, do so.

Here's the better question: Can you set up a system so that you don't even need any sort of beta to tell?

Because there's an extra virtual layer between you and the hard-disk, fsync() does not do what it says it does, which means that a database cannot actually guarantee that a transaction was successfully completed.

In case your traffic is huge, this can cause big problems that are very hard to fix. And it did cause problems for Reddit, as EBS is notoriously awful in this regard (and others, like big latencies on access).

Basically when working at big scales, nothing beats having complete control over your infrastructure. It may be tough and time consuming, but at least you can identify the problem and fix it.

It is my opinion that something like Google's search cannot be built on top of Amazon's AWS.
How did you resolve the problem?
Please redact your comments before others feel compelled to respond.
Unless it's the standards group that's going to standardize it (which like you say is unlikely), what exactly is the advantage of the projects getting together to "standardize"? It may seem good to the average end developer, simply because there's fewer deliberation to be made, but I suspect the "competition" is probably a net positive for everyone.

The way most of these things go is that over time, either one of the projects becomes the de facto "best one," and the other projects eventually fade away, or two or more projects make some significantly different choices and thus branch off in multiple directions, each with its own community of contributors and users.
The tech podcasts network
Hi all,

I am new to learning rails (learning/preparing for a/my startup) and for that I build:

1. http://www.RoRCasts.com => collecting all the podcasts regarding rails an ruby, take a look it is just an effort to help the community.

2. http://www.JavaNoise.com => the java realm podcasts collection. This community is low on podcasts and updates, I wonder why is that!?

3. http://TheSoundOf.Net => the collector for all the podcasts regarding .net technology. It was codded in C#, just because that was all I knew then. It is spreading and it looks interesting to devs. This was the starting point.

I am just letting the tech world know about the network and I am hoping that this community will help improve it. The goal is just to spread the news and gather feed back.

regards, I am continuing to read the next lines from ycombinator news feed.
