I have just read this insightful statement on this blog article about congitive load in Javascript

jQuery is undoubtedly useful when dealing with browser quirks, but once an application grows over a few thousand lines of code, unstructured jQuery code simply becomes too difficult to maintain, and you start needing the discipline of a framework to organize code. But when you're at tens of thousands of lines of code, you start to run out of entity types to CRUD, and your application growth starts to build on top of existing concepts. This is when you need the mental shift from being a library consumer to being a reusable component author,

This clever guy is the creator of Mithril, a very small, well crafted javascript library a friend of mine pointed to (via github…):

Do you have cygwin base install right? So no dos2unix…you can convert a windows file to unix format with a small tr command like

tr -d '\\15\\32' < winfile.txt > unixfile.txt

I prefer the awk way of life:

[bash] awk ‘{ sub("\r$", ""); print }’ winfile.txt > unixfile.txt awk ‘sub("$", "\r")’ unixfile.txt > winfile.txt [/bash]

Hi all,

I have released version 0.1.1 of org-mode-parser for nodejs

Org mode parser is a parser for reading Emacs org-mode files in nodejs.

This version  has been ported to VisualStudio Community Edition 2015, so you can develop easily under windows too (but only if you really want :)

Expo 2015 will close at the end of October. Because I enjoied it a lot, I’d like to give you some advice on Expo, Milan and Italy.

First of all, buy ticket on line and grab a map once in. The Mobile application suck a bit, so I preferred a paper map (I am too much analogic?).

Disapprove with me!

Okey, you know Oracle. A very good database, a very old database, a very solid rock. Not famous for its error messages. I have already stumbled upon a misleading error on the old rock.

This error anyway is incredible. If you try to push a very long text in a varchar2, you can end up with a

Another subversion repository

Wellcome in 2002 subversion users!

Some very old and stable customers has just discovered Subversion. Bad luck: a lot of cool  open source software are on git already!

You can leave them with the old-as-your-grandpa subversion system, but you can develop with git in your local directory…

Care e cari single, così avete trovato un partner e per risollevare il PIL, avete deciso di avere un bebé? Grandi!

Poiché più di un amico ha appena avuto pargoli, dall’alto della mia enorme esperienza (2 figli, 1 moglie, 7 computer,  2 iPad, 1 blog) vi dirò quello che ho scoperto tra scornate, urla dei miei e suggerimenti del suocero.

After my two children grow a little, I have some spare time to play with RaspberryPi. I have bought a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, a very neat and compact machine with 1GB of RAM, and a quad-core ARM chip on it.

I was looking for an easy-to-carry unix box, and I was wrong: raspberry pi can be a lot more than that.
