I've been getting in to Clojure lately as a hobby and I'd love to work with you and see how you evolve your application, but alas I'm pursuing my masters currently :(

Can you please do some write-ups as you go along of how you're building your application with the above stack, what tools you're using, challenges, etc?

edit: also where do you see yourself going in light of web components?

stop marginalizing this issue by calling it a "political stance." Hitler's "political stance" was to get rid of jews. Political stances affect real lives. Get your head out of your ass.

How are they not treating Brendan Eich equally? He's the bigot here who wants to deny them happiness, not the other way around.

this is not a personal matter. It's a public issue. For example, there are plenty of Arab businesses that boycott Israel and their products. Are they mixing work and personal issue?

what's unprofessional about this stance? They're standing up for their values. Why should we separate different aspects of our lives? We're not machines, we're human beings. I say, I'd love to do business with them because they stand up for their values rather than bow to greed and fear not getting some unknown moroccan's business.

It's not just them or their puzzle game. It's not just gay people either. It's everybody who wants everyone to be treated equally and not be denied their humanity. The CEO's values fly in the face of Mozilla's values. That's why he should be shown the exit door.

why not just create a web lisp-interpreter?

I sense deep irony in this comment...

seems a lot like React. I haven't used it, but isn't it also built around the idea of Shadow Doms?

seems fake.

TIL Europe is a nation.

once I link to my github, why do I need to select a username, password and email to enlist?

github sign in doesn't actually seem to sign me in.

I smell an amazon fan boy hatin on other services. Did you even read his article? You don't have to use microsoft products on Azure. Get that weak shit outta here, son.

thanks. this is a good resource :) I've explored most of these courses on Coursera over the last year before finally deciding to go to grad school. For me, the biggest factor was motivation (in terms of actually doing the assignments and projects), networking, and getting internship opportunities. However, I still am using the coursera lectures as a supplement to my courses and it helps a lot.

Regardless of any path you take, these are very exciting times to be in computing sciences. All the best to everyone and keep upgrading your skills and knowledge :)

i'm also going to be commuting about 40 min by bus. I get motion sickenss if I read or look at a screen on the bus, so some podcasts would be very helpful!

why don't you get a 40 hour job elsewhere for now? that'll give you enough time on the side to learn web dev and then maybe in 6 months you can start applying to junior web dev positions? Or how about a junior QA job somewhere? move up into development later on?

"The paradigm was so disruptive that it was suppressed by computer scientists for decades." Stopped reading after that.

Says the former CIA thug...

I see the author's points, but I mostly agree with you. There are people who actually like doing tedious and boring things or maybe they don't have a choice. I'd do tedious and boring stuff if I didn't have a choice. But as a software developer right now, I do have a lot of choices. So why should I not leave the current work place which isn't making use of even 20% of my skillset for something that is more challenging?

Here's the wikipedia article on Intellectual Ventures. Make sure it continues to say they're patent trolls: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellectual_Ventures

"Start the day by producing instead of consuming." Sounds wonderful. I'm going to try and live by that. Thanks for this :)

Any custom requests? Let us *know.

sorry if this sounds stupid, but are all the effects done using only CSS?

I think all your three points apply to me. I'm wanting to focus on AI because I find it very exciting. I've done some basic intro courses online related to it on Coursera but now I would like to really get into it. So I think pursuing a Masters would be a good start.

Thanks everyone for such varied and elaborate responses. This is exactly what I was looking for :)

What sets Ember apart from Angular?

lol thank Christ? Who's letting the creationists in to a scientific news site? Go back to faux news.

Hi, what's the difference between Pure and Bootstrap? Should I even consider Pure if I'm using Bootstrap (or something similar) already?

sorry, not that I know of. Are you part of any local dev groups?
