I completely agree with this, countless times it has been variables with the slightly wrong name, or forgetting to upload on filezila, or one of many small mistakes that afterwards seem obvious but cause a lot of frustration.

One comment that I saw on the original thread was talking to people. I wanted to highlight this because it has helped me more times than anything else. Even explaining step by step what my program should do to my girlfriend, who has very little computer expertise in general and usually gives me a blank stare, can help a lot.

I remember finding an image on reddit a while back of a programmer laboring over his code for hours only to find a greater than which was supposed to be a less than sign, my thought was 'a mistake we will all learn again and again'.

Let me get this straight, this guy posts about how logging out of Facebook isn't enough, and how Facebook learning things about you that you don't want it to. The majority reaction is to adblock them and disallow them to do that to you.

But this isn't right. Go on Facebook and tell me how many of your friends wouldn't even know the first thing to do with one of these extensions. So now the computer literate people know how to protect their privacy, but what about everyone else?

I have seen a wide variety of opinions on this subject already with people feeling strongly towards and against CoffeeScript. I have also read reasons why it is unnecessary to use this in conjunction with jQuery.

Myself I haven't taken much of an interest in using CoffeeScript but am an avid jQuery coder. This article really opened my perspective on CoffeeScript and I think I might have to run out and try something written in CoffeScript/jQuery.

I agree with the author and hope that we will see a programming environment for this soon.

Oh wow, that is quite ingenious! And I will have to remember that.

I really hope that this decreases the amount of patent trolling there is, I think that there is nothing worse than if you were to put your hard work into something and someone else comes along and sues you for your good idea.

This is pretty fantastic, though it would only be made better if you bought the wallpaper and put it up in the room with your computer in it.

I am glad to finally see some competition with the mobile web costs. I have no idea how much it costs the companies for people to be on them, but it seemed like they looked at each other and said 'That company is getting away with charging per gigabyte and having no unlimited internet' and changed over to that. I hope that Sprint does this and the competition between companies drives down the price for these services, or at least brings back unlimited internet.

If Google does link Dart to the Android I think that will be exciting. Currently at least the apps are running off of XML and Java I think that if it had its own language. Though the second link went to an article with a tagline "...new programming language for structured web programming". That would be interesting but everyone and their mother is coming out or working on web programming languages.

Oh man, where is that 250 grand I had lying around... :)

Seems like this site is coming under a lot of harsh comments. I am not sure about the sustainability, or even the ability of something like this being created. But (to use their term) with the power of the internet you can reach those who do know how to do it. Someone who knows all the legality of something like this might never have an idea like this.

I think the point was 'Hey if realtors can do it, we can too and turn the profit into something useful'. If a realtor knew how to do something like this than it wouldn't take too much to assume that other people would know how to accomplish something like this. From the posts you prove this, you have more insight into this than the creators, but the idea has to start somewhere.

One would assume that if they are hoping to build a grand community then they would be willing to take suggestions from their community as to how to build this community. Just because it is idealistic, and secretly maybe you want to be a part of it, doesn't mean it is going to fail.

I agree with some of the other people who posted in reply to this. I think it is an awesome concept because it is always a drag to have to dig through posts from people who put up twenty a day to find the people who put one every once in a while.

I wonder if there isn't another method of sorting you could do. I have few friends so don't know about the large scale application. But possibly sorting them into friends and having their pictures sized differently based on posts. And then click on the picture and you can scroll through their posts. Something along the lines of showing the post from that friend who rarely posts without scrolling down to find it.

This is kind of fantastic, in the 'I almost want to go out and plaster it all over a website just for fun and to laugh at peoples reactions' fantastic.
