I think he means 'classical'as in class based. Just like you'd refer to 'classical' inheritance.

Thanks! it was a tough decision to make but now that I've made up my mind I'm very happy about it.
This is my second "serious" job after I graduated Uni. I lasted 2 years on the first one and I'm currently at 10 months on my actual job. Hopefully it looks stable enough.
Thanks! those are very encouraging words.
Well honestly I am a bit scared about the job situation when I come back but I do think that I have more to gain by going on a backpacking experience at this time of my life than staying another 6 months / 1 year at my current job as a developer..
Web dev moves really fast though! hopefully it won't be crazy different when I get back.
Maybe I could, but on a trip like this there isn't an exact return date and I'd like to not have one in mind, weather it lasts 4 months or 6 or more.
What if the reason why that person left had nothing to do with the work environment?
Right now I'm a bit worried about leaving my current job (10 months in) because I have the opportunity to go backpacking through South America with a friend, which I honestly believe is not something that comes up very often.
Anyways I was just wondering how a manager might react to my situation once I come back and start looking for a job again. Could it impact my professional profile in a negative way?
I like it, I think there's a real use case for it. I spent quite some time looking for examples on how to create an schema for an activity based workflow webapp.
Yeah I'm in a similar situation as in I can be 'the guy' for now but eventually they'll need to find another developer to maintain the app. But what could have been a decent alternative for a webapp + db setup? I don't think wordpress is suitable for that kind of project.
Seriously? Cause I had this small 'hand in' kind of project in my hands and saw it as a good opportunity to teach myself Rails. My daily job involves .NET development but that's not very exciting and learning something new was probably the most motivating thing when I accepted the offer. So your comment makes me feel kind of worried about my decision to go with Rails.
Ohh wow this looks very nice. Unfortunately I can't login for some reason.
So I am actually finishing the development of a similar system for a group of anesthesiologists that needed a custom app to keep track of their patients and their pain medication.
Had I known of this project before I would have actually considered contributing/forking it to handle their use cases. See this hits pretty close home since I'm Colombian and hospitals here have terribly outdated systems.
I love the idea of the app working offline and syncing when internet is available since mobile networks here aren't verye reliable. One problem is,as others have mentioned, having it work on mobile is very important. I don't think it really is because of lack of PCs and desktops it's just that doctors are always running all over the place and it's more convienent for them to log the information on a smartphone/tablet.
Anyways my next project is also on the medical field and will have a wider scope so I'll keep an eye on this project for when the time comes, I'd love to contribute eventually.
Can you do this sort of thing in Coinbase?
Ah this is the reason why I hate that my workplace blocks gaming websites.
Is there a release date for Foundation 6? I'm just starting a new project with 5 and I'd love to upgrade to 6 if it's coming out within the next month.
So you've had a positive experience with Semantic-UI? I'm about to start a project and I'm considering Semantic-UI or Foundation. I like the defaults on Semantic a bit more but I think Semantic 2.0 is about to come out so Foundation might be the safer choice right now.
It's also how we denote the people of a certain region in Colombia. I don't think it's related though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paisa_Region
