Vue.js can do this as well, though I think it does it a lot better. I still seperate my code out, but generally I'm writing simple Vue.js components I'll go with the all in one approach since it's usually a grand total of 40 lines of code.
Ember.js is still my preferred framework, and I love how explicit it's separation of concerns is. -
@epse I did this the other day and completely freaked out when I looked at where I'd just smashed the usb drive in. But it was reading and the logo next to the port said it was okay.

My first build was Ubuntu 8.10. Been windows since for a lot of reasons, but Linux has a special place in my heart.

Computer science was an elective that was rarely offered. We had this dumb rule in our school district that classes weren't offered unless there were at least 25 students enrolled. Welcome to Arizona. Trying to explain to the district superintendent that jazz bands typically only have a maximum of 21 members was akin to eating your own arm.

Get back to hell you foul demon!

Siri isn't wrong, we just don't understand with our puny organic perception of the world.

Used Atom for a while. VS Code has since replaced it. So much better IMHO
-
this is where I jump in and suggest buying an Intel NUC
-
alas, working for government/university in america out rules any remote possibility of this happening...
-
it'll be good for you to have a web dev thing in your tool belt, and this will force you. same thing is happening to me (c# developer doing node.js web for work) and I promise things will be fine. we all complain, but it's great.
-
try Atom first. if sublimes extras are still appealing, then buy that.
-
Bing developer extension does that to me. might want to disable it if you are using it.
-
it becomes a nice finalizing key press. sometimes after writing a statement and ending with a ; I do a little flourish :P
-
"work on the car engine while you drive it down the freeway! don't be a pussy!"
-
also explain how beneficial having just one CI container would be... I can't imagine life without it.
-
@FelisPhasma obj-c has a lot of power, but I think what bothers me is just how much more you have to write for something simple like this. a lot of other C based languages do this way better.
-
there should be a standard "hey dumbass, update your stuff." page we all redirect to if the browser is old.
*disclaimer. yes I know not everyone has a choice because corporate structure. -
Ubuntu, the MOST hipster of Linux distros :P
-
it's finicky to set up for sure. but I haven't noticed a difference with it since the acquisition. it's still just as awkward because of the nature of what it is doing.
-
squash it!

I actually really like the standard Dell that's been going out with the current generation. it's mechanical but with about half the key travel of your usual Dell keyboards and it isn't too loud. it's surprised me how nice it is to type on. if you do a lot of typing on laptops, it's a good one that isn't that big of a difference.
I also still love my Microsoft 3000 keyboard at home, for a lot of the same reasons. -
@xarvier when you manage windows and Linux servers, it's just nice to only have to work with one scripting language. since PowerShell is amazing at working with AD and managing our authentication.... yeah I'm happy PowerShell is available.
also verb-noun syntax is much easier to remember than whatever random crap bash uses for commands so I've become very proficient In PowerShell while never really getting anywhere with bash. -
@StefanH VS Code is growing on me. I use VS for all my .net stuff (what else would you use? lol) but for my js/web and Python I've been using Atom. That said VS Code had been getting some great updates and Atom, while it's package support is greater, hasn't been getting many first-party feature updates. Seems I'll probably be alternating between the two as one improves over the other.
-
if you are working with grunt and some sort of clients, definitely use something like Atom or VS Code and do all of your compiling and generation via the command line. I've been doing this with Ember.js and haven't even wished i was using and IDE.
-
lol if only it worked like that...
really though, embedding web content is the worst. I had to embed facebook and Twitter posts into web views on a mobile app. so many CSS and JS hacks, too much regEx, it was disgusting and ended up being 50% of total development time. but it worked! -
that's why we give our users chrome, Firefox and IE updated to the max. they've become smart enough to use what works for each web application (usually chrome/firefox aside from the few legacy apps we are phasing out or something not developed in house)
-
for whatever reason I often end up trying it not once, not twice... but 3 times. I don't know why, but that's what goes down.
-
same with neural networking... people get freaked out but the reality is the program is only a savant at one specific thing. which took a long time to learn.
I'll take those fear tactics into consideration when computers start building neural networks instantaneously on their own. -
@foldager this is 'murica. we got capitalism and stuff. here we encourage this sort of behavior! cuz trickle down economics or something....
-
we have devs, systems and desktop support in the same room (which is fantastic btw) and we have a good mix. since our users are all on windows, that's what everyone uses BUT devs all have Macs and a PC. most of the dev output is web based, so it really doesn't matter what they use) Linux is mostly left for servers, but nothing is stopping anyone as long as they are productive.
with PowerShell making its way to Linux and Mac, it may be more normal for systems and desktop to use linux if they choose.
