To develop great webpages, you need coding expertise, as well as the right tools to find and debug issues that inevitably crop up. This update provides substantial improvements to the F12 developer tools, including both features and bug fixes for the F12 UI, console, DOM explorer, Debugger, Emulation tool, UI Responsiveness, and Memory profiling tools. A color picker! My life is complete

ORMs, like everything in this world, have a time and a place. Figure out where it makes sense to use them and use something else when ORMs don’t make sense. The latest volley in the ORM battle lands right in the middle

Yawn. Years ago I looked at ORM's and thought, geez, this is absurd, and simply skipped the whole thing by writing my own automated SQL generator. Amazingly, the rest of the world seems not to have realized that to do this, you don't need a freaking class for every single table/view in your database, and you certainly don't need to a class to simply query some data, ship it to the UI with some presentation translation, and then persist the changes back to the DB. Argh. I get so frustrated with the archaic "state of the art" of programming.

I cannot believe it!! A balanced answer to the ORM wars.
Yes, ORMs are not the panacea that you didn't think they were.

Indeed, just as the plague is not really the best solution to over-population.

That is the perfect example, because ORMs basically solve a problem that no one really had.

To be fair, I suspect that some newbies with no database experience may have had that problem, but the better solution is to teach them the proper way.

Agree, 100%.

That's backward; ORMs should be the last resort, not the first.

Now that the technologies behind our servers and networks have stabilized, IT can look forward to a different kind of constant change. "Because things are the way they are, things will not stay the way they are."

I was hoping someone would get the joke/irony/whatever of this article. Even the acceleration doesn't seem to have stabilized.

I'll have some of the same stuff they have taken.
Maybe that'll shift my perception enough to see it their way.

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?

Details of a new NSA program have emerged from Wired's meticulous Snowden profile this morning. As part of the interview, Snowden described an ongoing NSA project called Monstermind, planned as a new cyberdefense capability. The system would scan web metadata for signs of an attack in progress, then respond automatically to blunt the attack and potentially even retaliate. When turned on, it will shut down the agency

I'd say it's a malware-replacement. You only need ours, not the other ones.

But, what if I don't wanna help you help me help you, for, in helping you, I don't necessarily believe it will help me when I help you.
Besides, this is a free country (well, or so we're told... what, with nearly $18 trillion in debt, over 90% debt to Gross Domestic Product output, of which, when such a ratio is reached, in all of history, the nation crumbles).
As such ~ Help yerself, there, NSA! (actually, not really.)
Besides, you did just that to my computer, cell phone calls, emails, and everything else digital.

The USB Promoter Group announced today that it has finalized the design of the USB Type-C plug, a new type of USB plug that's designed to completely replace every size of all current USB connectors. And by the time I have a machine with one, it will be out of date
