I think Node.JS is quite cool.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

No. JS in the browser is bad enough.

I mostly agree; but if I have to do buzzword compliant web dev again node would at least let me use VS instead of either having to fight with bean counters to buy me a new tool[^] or to use an editor although more colorful is less capable than what I learned to program on nearly 20 years ago[^].
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.

Meh. IDEs are overrated. I use VS on Windows and vim on Linux and don't see any difference in productivity between the environments.

Our thoughts on JavaScript, APIs, Conway's Law, re-decentralization and much more. "We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."

Over 600,000 titles and 'thousands' of audiobooks for $9.99 each month. "A multitude of books distracts the mind."

I’m in an intriguing position on this subject, because I’m not a developer anymore. I haven’t launched Xcode since last December. Every time I’m out socially with software developers (which is often; I’ve made many good friends in that line of work, and I have no desire to lose them), at least one person asks me if I miss the job. "Accept the challenges, so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory."

More signs of growing worker confidence: Increase in rejected job offers and in employees quitting their jobs. "They'd call us gypsies, tramps, and thieves"

Microsoft has a massive ecosystem of devices around the world and at its Windows Partner keynote, Tony Prophet, stated that the company has 1.5 billion devices running Windows around the world. That figure is representative of all Windows devices including desktop PCs and Windows Phones. Yeah, that's what I heard: they're totally doomed.

Developing great apps takes time, but in the age of the customer that time is measured in days and weeks — not months. "Hand-coding is too slow to develop and deliver many of the applications that companies use to win, serve and retain customers." Pardon me while I go kick something with 'Forrester' written on it

It's hard to take the author seriously when he misspells company names. Maybe he should have spent more time on the article.

K2? Yeah's that's an easy one to misspell. Which ones were miffed? I was rolling my eyes too much to read closely.

Now you have me searching for 'softare'. It's surprising[^] just how many[^] people [^]seem to make that typo.

I have also seen 'sotware' and 'softwar' (as opposed to hardwar?)

Don't forget the plural form: softwares. Or even better: codes.

I believe that's spelled c0dez .

So what they're saying is that we need a COmmon Language that is Oriented for Business.

Passwords are something we all have to deal with on a daily basis, and the advice has long been to use complex passphrases, to use unique passwords for each site and service, and to change them on a regular basis. But Microsoft Research has different ideas. OK then. Back to p@ssw0rd everywhere!

More passwords and the more complex the passwords, the more likely they are written on a sticky not and stuck to the monitor.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.
