Working on x-platform packaging/distribution issues for an app that uses nodejs and various other cli tools on the user's own computer...

Can vouch for this: "Object-Relational Mapping is the Vietnam of Computer Science" - old post, but current for me atm codinghorror.com/blog/2006/06/o…

#livereload via #gruntjs is just awesome to work with

Updated from Snow Leopard to Mavericks. So far so good. Something finally worth updating for. (and free) :)

Hopping between JavaScript and PHP with a large amount of time since using the other is a sure-fire way to induce dollar-sign vertigo

@chris_shattuck unfortunately (with a silver lining) BADCamp coincides with moving into a new house this weekend :(

@chris_shattuck - holy haircut, Chris. Nice new profile pic. :)

Good on PHP.net for having a website that doesn't look like it was made in 1998 anymore

Free Mac OSX Mavericks upgrade/update @ itunes.apple.com/us/app/os-x-ma…

Yay, OS X Mavericks == $0!

Happy Rhino (hr.js): an all-grown-up and more-flexible #backbonejs inspired framework friendcode.github.io/hr.js

Upgraded from an iPhone 3gs to an iPhone 5c. Yay for 4+ years of Moore's law.

Wish #backbonejs included controller out of the box. Can make your own, or just do it the view (as is standard), but both options sorta meh.

Learning some AngularJS while I build my Backbone.js app out. Angular's directives and the flexible way it handles models are nice.

Loving my time with @WebStormIDE Still getting some things setup, but definitely nice.

@_fmachine wrote a worthwhile article on #drupal 8 for those tracking the direction of the wind:friendlymachine.net/posts/drupal-8…

@dmitrig01 - none the less, won't hate on CoffeeScript anymore. Would just be pointless and won't make it go away. :)

@dmitrig01 - it's a stretch for me to conflate loops, vars, conditionals, etc that LESS/SASS adds with CoffeeScript cleaning up class syntax

@dmitrig01 - that's likely just prototype inheritance underneath. Can do the same thing in JS, of course crockford.com/javascript/inh…

SASS and LESS come w/ a big syntax change/addition to CSS, but you get a *lot* for dealing with that. #coffeescript just syntax. :-(
