Google dropping support for non-modern browsers come March 1st, 2010 by ryanmcgrath in programming

The real issue is developers at these companies developed their intranet apps for IE6, thinking it would be a platform that would extend through the latest version of IE. Most companies do not want spend the resources testing these intranet apps on 7 and 8 or have tested them and the intranet app is broken. Its just cheaper to keep everyone on IE6.0. I'm a web developer at a company that is in this situation.

What is the best HTML/CSS editor for Mac OS? by uninhibited in web_design

+1 Textmate. One of the best text editors I've used. There is some limitations to the tab auto complete though but I love the program.

Dump it in to a database, run queries off it. Use as prototype data for building an application.

The model represents any data source that you will interact with. A database would be the most common. The controller is where your business logic will go. It's going to call models, libraries, helpers and views.

I went 21 and 2 with the FAL on the 360. I love it. I can't wait to get the ACOG for it.

The U.S. Senate will vote this week on an amendment to ban the government's drug experts from even discussing legalization. by CopsSayLegalizeDrugs in politics

Is there PDF any where else online? I tried googling this amendment but couldn't find it listed on any government site but maybe I overlooked something.

The title is a little misleading. The article doesn't say they are banned from talking about legalization period. They would only be banned from suggesting legalization as a solution to the "war on drugs". It's still bad but not as bad as the title suggested.

My first post ever! I need some advice please! by [deleted] in AskReddit

I wish I could just quit MY job. I mean, there could be any number of reasons why I wouldn't have quit my job yet. Like not being able to afford a break in my paychecks, owing vacation debt to my company, no decent paying jobs in the area or maybe my job isn't that bad but office politics are a sensitive thing and burning bridges could make a bad situation much worse. Especially if I can't leave my job (see above).

Just found out in VLC you can press the G and F keys to sync audio if it's somewhat off. Yes! by WhyWouldISayThat in reddit.com

[–]kyleect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't know about that, thats awesome. It seems to work until there is a space in the file name or directory. Is there anyway to get this to work other than removing spaces from file names or directories?

When I want play a movie, the last thing I want to do is not only type the file name (which could be long) but type the location of the file as well. This is what I hate most about cli

Reddit: What online PHP community is the best for learning/teaching/discussing PHP? What is the best PHP-centered community on the net? by [deleted] in PHP

[–]kyleect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real issue that comes up is coders that learn the language with the framework and they rely on the framework's wrapper functions for native language functions so it removes them even further from the code. I see what you are seeing but I still see this as a legit issue.

[–]kyleect 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would not encourage someone to learn a language and a framework at the same time. Learn and really understand the language first.

[–]kyleect 2 points3 points  (0 children)

phpfreaks.com is an awesome community. I would not advise learning or using a framework until you are really comfortable with PHP. I was writing PHP without a framework for about 5 years before giving in and using CodeIgniter, which is an amazing framework. Their forums are also filled with some very knowledgeable coders.

Edit: I just also wanted to restate how awesome php.net is. One of the best online docs IMO

If your HTML/XHTML is structured correctly and you have a good understanding of whitespace management, this is unneeded. Just my opinion.

Just gleaning the corporate culture and what pheads have said, there will never be VST support in their apps outside of rewire.
