Ok, so let's start with. No.

For a number of reasons. "Web Scale deployments" like Linked-in and Pay-Pal aren't actually what most people call Enterprise. The line blurs a bit, but because they are Massive Scale Single Task solutions they aren't what the industry defines as enterprise.

Second. Node is use primarily in two places, Private Cloud. (like pay pal and linked in) where you want to run on hardware as a commodity, but don't want the overhead of a true VPS, instead you run in an "Engine" which is hardware independent. That's great if you are Huge. But it makes less sense in traditional enterprise... Which is why we come to number 3....

Third. Node isn't secure enough for Enterprise. Enterprise runs on well tested, secure, solutions, with strong support, because... You can't get hacked, you can't deal with your developer quitting, and you can't deal with the solution is no longer supported.

This piece is marketing hype, not "white paper fact" or even "Case study support"

Yes I expect lots of downvotes, happens every time I say something bad about node. But the truth of it is that Node is for Hackers, not for production. It is tech born from a poorly conceived language, running in an engine that was designed for clients not servers, and unless you have a team of security guys, and a strong proxy, and a bunch of other things, it is not "production safe".
Have you tried one with a good bluetooth keyboard/enclosure?

I was surprised with how much of a difference it makes. I got an iPad3 at launch, and never bothered with a keyboard cover. It was, like you said, an awful productivity device. I got a keyboard cover with my iPad Air, and it made a night & day difference in terms of productivity.
So much for the american "free market"...

What a joke.

As a european, i can't even comprehend how ludicruous it sounds that a business can't sell it's goods directly. It's so outrageously wrong, that I can't find words that fit adequately.

I work on an open-source project and we just dropped Metro/RT support for the last release, after man years of effort. The adoption didn't justify the effort.

> Is there a reason to dismiss the question like this?

I'm not dismissing your questions. I'm arguing that listing information on your website doesn't mean you're any more or less capable at handling the issues you're described.

I've seen <10 people startups succeed against destructive technical challenges, and I've seen +$500 million companies completely fail on the most simple problems. QA/FAQs aren't the deciding factor (although they provide signaling to clients, both current and potential).
You just aren't going to be rewarded for doing a good job, because nobody can tell the good from the bad.

That right there is the crux of the matter. Lots of big companies use office politics as a (very poor) proxy for the evaluation of a programming group. Numbers are fictionalized and "old sayings" and programmer memes are used in decision making as if they were facts. Actual numbers that don't fit in with the party line are automatically questioned -- just because.
1. You use unprofessional obscenities in your project title

2. I don't take your project seriously (perhaps unfortunately)
New Jersey has a lot of these strange laws. They also force you to have full service at the gas station. The lobbies force the issue.
You can also search torrent manually and use https://github.com/mafintosh/peerflix with VLC
However, auto complete is a great way to fight phishing. It's easy to tell people you think your on website X but your password never shows up your probably on a different site. And the simple fact there password is not there is enough to get most people get somewhat paranoid.

So, for most people you trade a near meaningless threat to fight a major one which tends to be a net win.
I've played with the Firefox Metro UI for about half an hour now - obviously since my post - and I really like it. It's a solid start.

Is it possible that the reason you're seeing low use is because users aren't aware the option exists? Also, why are features in Firefox Metro not ported to Desktop? Touch zoom and scroll for example, are vastly superior in Windows 8 Mode right now.
Context is everything dude. "Serious changes" with respect to the topic under consideration, NSA overreach and mass, probably unconstitutional surveillance. Why try to broaden the context to include Gates' philanthropic work? It's not relevant.

But given your fondness for irrelevancy, I can see why you would ignore mockery of Arguments from Authority. Such mockery eats at the foundation of a worldview and theology that puts Very Rich People at the summit of humanity.

Good day, Sir.
I haven't read the article. I wonder if it involves enticing people with pretty girls.

> Why wouldn't pirates just go back to pirating when the price increases for the service? If pirating with RSS feed + torrent client is so easy, why would they move to the legit service in the first place?

A Hulu Queue is more convenient than pirating I would think, but once you have to spend greater than X time on ads, you'd rather deal with the hassle of pirating. Just speculation.
Someone was showing me Capital One 360 (formerly ING), which uses an onscreen PIN pad that you either have to click with your mouse, or type using a randomly generated mapping. The idea is to thwart keystroke loggers, but it's totally infuriating.
Hip Hop, and "PHP" don't really share that much. Wordpress templating is what a lot of people think PHP is like. Zend Framework too. But saying PHP and Hip Hop are the same is kind of like saying Shakespeare and Flavor Flav both speak English.

Sure they both do a lot of Rhyming, but you'd have a hard time getting the two to understand one another.

(I don't like PHP particularly, but calling what FB does "php" is inaccurate)
Misfortune because you have to code in PHP? Seems like a bit of an exaggeration to me...

No, of course it does not apply the update while under way. When there's a firmware update available you get a nice big dialog box telling you so and button that says "would you like install tonight at [3 AM]". You can change the time or even cancel the update.

Furthermore, the message tells you it won't install unless the car is plugged in or has a certain level of charge.
chef installs as omnibus, so you're suggesting that people should install the massive chef stack, and then the FSS gem?

>"...because nobody can tell the good from the bad."

This has been one of the most persistent and extreme frustrations in my working life - working for people who are so out of touch with the technology which they ostensibly manage that you'd have to stage an internal marketing / education campaign to establish ideas that would be self-evident to someone literate.
>We're dedicated to Node.js
nearForm was founded in 2011 by Richard Rodger and Cian Ó Maidín with the vision to help Node.js to become a mainstream technology.

The article hypothesizes that they are buying treasuries with their foreign cash.
If all you're building is a service proxy to a database, node will get you very far really fast. Its thin layer will allow you write a clean REST api that consumers can reliably call.

Javascript does not scale well though when a project grows to hundreds of thousands of lines of code, but that shouldn't stop you from investigating TypeScript, Dart, or even Coffeescript.
Don't network like a salesman, build relationships like a man
Pending resolution of a few details, Guido has indicated that he is ready to accept the PEP:

How does that help remedy the other four problems he mentioned, especially the ones totally independent of input devices, though?
The truth is, car dealerships, which are mostly locally owned, are a way for a state to boost revenue capture and generate jobs. In New Jersey, not being able to pump your own gas is the same deal.

Look at the economics of a Tesla dealership, for every car sold in New Jersey, how much of that money stays in New Jersey? And let's be honest, being a car salesman is not the most lucrative or respectable of trades. The jobs are usually temporary so down on their luck folks can try and earn some money while looking for something else. Ensuring a state has dealerships possibly out of work people can fall into for temporary jobs is like having a social welfare program without having it on the books.

It sucks, but if you were a legislator in NJ, would you rather Tesla's profit went all out of state to Tesla, or if your citizens could get a crack at some of it and have it circulate around in the local economy for a bit.

It's unpopular, and us tech folks don't like it, but from a NJ legislator's position it's pretty rational.

The correct answer of course is to foster a local auto industry and get a company to make and build and sell cars from out of NJ elsewhere. But that's too impossibly forward looking.
Oh technology, I agree. It's just that it's a different problem, and Google has very little experience at it.
Also, I don't think people would be depositing too much money at Google Bank.

I want to add that banking is heavily regulated, and the Google Boys would probably chafe under that.
Jolly good, I read the first paragraph and thought "Is this piece just fluff?" [Check comments, yep]. Time saved.

An approach to getting Clojure on Mobile has been the approach that Weathertron used.

https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/weathertron-live-rain-snow/i...

They compiled the Clojure(Script) down to Javascript, combined it with Angular and packaged it up

Polymorphism, and typeclasses in Scala.
I know. Does -he- know, though? That was my point. Per the original comment, Erlang -would- be perfect for it. It would not, however, be perfect for someone who is not knowledgeable about OTP to use it as a learning project, because any oversight that leads to unexpected behaviors could burn his house down (or whatever toggling a relais too much does).
Node is "production safe". The many deployments and success stories override your fud.

It's time for you to move on and bash a newer, emerging, "unproven" technology.

In the mean time, have fun with cobol, cause that's the only "proven" technology out there :-,

Where did you get the idea they deployed for the first time on Black Friday? They had it out and ready well before then.
I was also a contributor to the Veronica Mars movie Kickstarter.

When I received my email today and found out it was Ultra Violet, I was quite upset. I emailed the address they have listed on the F.A.Q. site with my complaint.

I backed the Kickstarter, but in order to watch it on my AppleTV I have 2 options: 1. Purchase from iTunes. or 2. Pirate.

The money I spent to back the Kickstarter could have been used for the iTunes copy. Which doesn't need an external player and is easily accessible on my AppleTV. The iTunes version may have DRM, but it's easily strippable if I desire to back it up for example.

Edit: Some spelling.
F8 showcasing new ad service to help monetize mobile apps
Why use this guy's overpriced service when so many cheaper, well-established hosting businesses exist, like OVH's http://www.soyoustart.com/us/offers.xml
Don't get me wrong, I'm the biggest fan of shell scripts and chapeau for writing opinionated software.

However, not having idempotent configuration files seems to be not only missing some of the power of shell scripting but also missing a huge principle of "good" server configuration.
And even if you had to make a legal / not legal binary choice, popcorn time wasn't legal. How do you check 4 times and not read MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd.

How about something to fix the broken standard deviation?

Well, differently to (mostly) pirate sites, GitHub hosts a ton of projects, how should they know that this is related to Popcorn Time? If they have any specific clue, they is quite a risk that they publish that and get real problems.
I'm not particularly well versed in the specifics of the Tesla situation, and I'm not a lawyer, by any means; I'm saying this as a general consideration. I would tend toward thinking that the selective enforcement or reinforcement of antiquated laws could be seen as just as negative, if the outcome is the same.
* Uncompetitive compensation. Google pays me twice as much as BAC. The peer bonuses I've received at Google sum to more than I ever got in real bonuses or raises at BAC.

* No perks whatsoever. People got notes from building management for having too many figures on their desks. Want coffee? Leave and buy it. Want food at 6pm? Leave and buy it, except you're in the financial district, so just give up and go home.

These are the big two. People may put up with a crappy work environment if they really need the money, but with Twitter/Google/Facebook paying more, why bother?

Interview With a Person Who Changed Careers Without Quitting Her Job
I certainly don't want unchecked liberty for others, or myself. I want intelligent, compassionate, and humane liberty, meaning that you can do whatever you want as long as you're not hurting someone else.

Say I take the grocery example from above. And I have unbridled liberty, and I now don't allow any black people to shop there because in the original texts of Mormon, the lord cursed Cains seed, and the black skin curse was to identify the cursed. Now if there are 30 grocery stores in town, who cares. But say I'm in a small town, and there are only two, and we're both Pre-1978 Mormon believers. Now black people in the town can only eat at the Chick fil a. Well, Chick fil a decides to also have this policy, and now there is no place for the black populace to eat. The only option to the black people is to open their own store, except no one will sell them the food, and no one will sell them the land, and no one will sell them... anything. I effectively own the black populous because I can get them to work for food. Oh, and it's not racism, it's religion.

I don't care what ideology you have, it must not suppress human rights.
To get a better Google Page Speed score :)
Because OVH's service and support are terrible. Much rather give the new guy a try.
If they had solid support, I'd sign up for direct deposit today. They don't have solid support though, hence why I'm at Simple.
What if someone released a "limited virtual machine" that included WINE running inside an emulator but only allowed you to install Office on it? Emulation performance concerns aside, it's actually possible to capture all the keystrokes coming from a bluetooth keyboard on iOS. (And get it in the store if you're sneaky enough.) It should be possible to do this. (I also have a scheme for dealing with the mouse UI.)
> So think of the autocomplete=off flag as a flag to make sure you are using a competent password manager

No, what happens is that autocomplete=off flag is a flag to make sure you are using your brain as a password manager, which experience has shown to be a terrible idea.

Instead of a browser password manager that can help make your passwords unique per site and comprised of random characters, users are forced to use passwords from their head, likely sharing them between sites. Someone coming to your unattended computer isn't nearly the threat of you using a simple and short password across every site you visit, including the sites that end up with a stolen passwords database or have a moronic password recovery option.
nice shoes. they must be good at explaining why people "don't get it" and what things "are really about"
Why Treasuries? Well, they're really liquid. You can sell them in a hurry if, for example, there's some juicy company you decide you want to buy for $19 billion. (As selectodude pointed out, they probably won't move the market much by doing so.)
Out of pure curiosity, what makes Ansible the best choice for you?

For my team, I decided on Ansible because it was the simplest option (no agents to install, pure ssh).
You get the full Office 2013 suite with most x86 tablets nowadays (which you won't when you buy a Surface oddly enough). For me that definitely played a part in my decision to get an Asus T100.
lol he made the whitehouse website...not exactly an "open source coder"
The name came about when we were writing the majority of our ansible code. We mentioned to each other in frustration multiple times, "Man, this would be so much easier if I could just use fucking shell scripts."
Clojure only makes sense in the presence of a "host" environment providing the backing libraries. A "native" Clojure is a contradiction.

You probably just want Haskell. Nicer language anyway :)
The only way to hire a developer with your napkin-stage idea
Fortunately/unfortunately, there's no arguing on the phone involved. What happens is a junior staffer answers the phone and keeps a tally of which constituents come in on either side of an issue. Of course, if you're willing to make an extra effort, you can make an appointment to visit the congressperson's office, though unless you're a donor, you're unlikely to have much success meeting with the congressperson in person, but your voice would probably be heard louder nonetheless.
What do you mean 'linux gets frozen'? I literally can't remember the last time a linux box froze on me. As others said, I would just reboot it now and let fsck pick up the pieces.

That's going to be faster than the time spent to search google for the magic incantation.
Non-violent resistance (civil disobedience) is all about willfully breaking the law. His reasoning would also exclude Martin Luther King and Gandhi from his pantheon of heroes.

> I think it is more likely that their outreach programs (through CS AP teacher training etc.) that encouraged the best and brightest women to apply were successful, so that the pool of women were significantly more qualified.

That is entirely implausible. Those straws are miles away, dude.

That could perhaps explain a 20% difference, not a 330% difference.

Even if they weren't dangerous, it's a shame that cars are so forced and that it's so hard to walk around in many areas.
By the way, that's the same reason I'm investigating using Pallet[1].

Node.js, with browserify, is great for client side development. That alone makes it a good fit for any web programming shop.
The CM system I'm using "journals" every change it makes to the system, so if you later remove or change a file or script in your CM repository, it undoes the old change. This eliminates virtually all configuration drift, provided you aren't making changes by hand outside of the CM system (which you should never do anyways).

This system has been managing about 100 servers and several hundred desktops at a single site since 2009, so the approach does scale. It has some problems that declarative solutions like Puppet solve, but at the same time it solves problems that Puppet/Chef/others have.
Just say FSS, managers love acronyms!
RSS readers are quite resource intensive. They need to continuously update feeds (even when you're not using the site) and when you reading they need to remember each post you've read. It's write heavy load that most databases do not handle well. So you need to shard and use more servers even with comparatively small number of users.
It depends whether you're describing "the free market" religion or "the free market" reality.

In practice, most politicians mean an economy tilted in favor of multinational corporations when they use these dog whistle terms. It is an offense to everything Adam Smith stood for, but it's what they really mean by "free market." The real Adam Smith believed modern-style multinational corporations were a recipe for corruption.

"The directors of such [joint-stock] companies, however, being the managers rather of other people’s money than of their own, it cannot well be expected, that they should watch over it with the same anxious vigilance with which the partners in a private copartnery frequently watch over their own.... Negligence and profusion, therefore, must always prevail, more or less, in the management of the affairs of such a company."

I am a proponent (and user) of CoffeeScript, but it won't help you very much with maintainable architecture. It's mostly just syntactic sugar over normal JavaScript.
But that's how companies go out of business. They kill all the calves that compete for grass with the cash cow, and when the cash cow finally dies, they are left with no cow at all.
In December 2012, I did something utterly stupid. I found a leaked email list of all attendees of the World Conference on International Telecommunications and gave them my uncensored thoughts on the dangers of a closed and censored internet.

Received back like 30 non-deliveries, same amount of vacation replies confirming to me that they would be at the attendance (good social engineer hack, I suppose), and zero substantive replies.

I assume I'm definitely on a list for several govts since it went out to US/European, Middle East, and Asian govt officials as well as the heads of several private companies.

But now I see I won them all over...I did this.
