If "intellectual property" is patent on software or ideas, it just not had to be a property in first place imho. The other issues are even worst, if Oracle wins, you can not write an API without to be at risk to be sued because someone had a previous work in the area.
Zero exposure when your app is removed from the store (look at the news). Beside that, I am not a fan of Apple the patent troll and very reluctant to build an app specifically to them. HTML 5 has great exposure on EVERY computer.
Another point: You have to pay to have you app reviewed on the AppStore, and it may be refused. If it is accepted, Apple will take 30% of your incomes. And your app will remain slow if it is connected to a database online.
Take note that the author has designed two Wordpress themes. The point of the article is not to advocate for frameworks against CMS, but to observe a trend among webmasters. It this trend real? What is the cause? The article tries to answer to the latter, but you may disagree.
The link to the demo (that you name linkspam) has been removed. Apparently it was misunderstood.
Of course you can use the two together. The article is aimed to beginners that have to decide how to build their website, using a CMS or a framework? The point is that it seems to be a trend to use only HTML 5 and no CMS. That is interesting.
I am interested with all the tools running above Node.js, but what is exactly the purpose of this web app backend? Using a database? Some explanations would be welcomed. I found only a list of classes.
My comment was not about having someone on a note but having a programmer/computer scientist on a note. Darwin is not related to Turing while Booles is. Ideally we should have Booles on the front of the note and Turing on the back.
After having read the installation guide on Windows for Phantom.js and WebServer, that is embedded in it, apparently installing the first to use the second is a lot simpler!
With a tool like Enyo you can write all the code in a sort of JavaScript, and it is converted to HTML + JavaScript. Google also has a tool to convert Java to JavaScript. Why not a similar tool for Python (or other language)? No practical need to have a lot of languages in the browser itself IMHO even if it would be nice to program web pages with his favorite language.
Thanks you for the downvote. But if you try this query: "film no baby", you get the same result again, just because IMDB if a first choice for Google for any query related to "film". The query "film end of baby" shows different results. This downplays the presence of any intelligence in Google's results.
"The guy reported the issue on Friday, they fixed that specific instance of the issue ... and it remained a problem in other places."
If I have correctly understood the issue, Igor at first informed Rails, and this was the right thing to do. He was ignored by Rails and then he wanted to proof his view point by applying it to GitHub. How could GitHub inform other places? By contacting Rails, but they already downplayed the issue...
Very bad example because Google trends to favor large and authority websites. Try a query where the answer is on a small (but very well informed) site.
As a JavaScript user, when I have a problem to solve, I make a search with "JavaScript" in the query. This contributes to the popularity of the word. It could be the same for Node.js or ROR. @chewbranca: the word "rails" has a more generic meaning than Ruby on rails and may be included in many more queries.
These Ogilvy's stats are about printed documents. I am sure it is false on the Web because we are so used with images. All major websites put the title above the image. See the Huff or Ars for example. And they know their business. For the rest, it may be true or partially true.
PHP has a long startup time while Python, apparently starts faster. What the benchmarks prove on a simple app that display "Hello!" is which language has the best startup time! On a full app as Wordpress, the results may be different. Facebook still uses PHP (compiled) and not Python and so do lot of websites.
This Wikipedia article is interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_abuse#Prevalence.
USA and UK ranked lowest among industrial nations with respect to the wellbeing of children. Comments are all a matter of personal experience.
1) We are used to have the toolbar at bottom.
2) This makes room for more icons.
3) It is better to lose some space horizontally because we have windows side by side horizontally, usually.
Then, why a vertical toolbar?
