- Commissioning a script to automate something is expensive, plus you need to find the talent who can automate it and do a reasonable good job of it. It's sometimes a risky investment.

- If ready-made robots (and scripts) were available on the market, the employer would definitely use that instead

Where is Windows 9?

TypeScript isn't a higher level of JavaScript, it's ES6 with added features and types.

Main purpose is to make JavaScript code easier to maintain, especially across teams.

IMO the only way to go "higher level" is to use something like jQuery.

Docker for Windows is unfortunately a bit gimped right now:

- docker-compose isn't OS agnostic and as versions go forward Windows is lagging behind

- this uses Hyper-V which blocks both Virtualbox and Vmware from running

Running on Windows too now! :)

Hey Harish, thanks for your talk at the March London Django Meetup.

I'm starting to play around with Google Container service as you suggested, having a good time.

I believe that Peacekeeper/Browsermark give a lot of weight to WebGL and related computations, which aren't currently optimised in Edge.

Octane and SunSpider give more weight to the rest.

It'd be very impressive if Edge was faster all round.

I think the general consensus is that it helps, but also other ticks help like the diamond shaped pixels in the HTC Vive.

Current resolution still not works well with viewing virtual screens e.g. movies, virtual desktops and text. I think this is much more important as it increases practicality of the device.

It would obviously be an upscaled resolution in games. 4k is for the screen door effect.

4k is necessary for readable text, ability to watch HD movies and using virtual monitors. Currently the resolution is too low for any of these, as in it works but not good enough for being practical.

I would wait for Q1 2016 for an upgrade.

The new PASCAL Nvidia cards will be out and so will the new Intel chips will be releasing this August (with potentially a progression to 7nm next year).

Well it's suggested that sleeping too long or less may affect quality of life, not just length.

So why not length and quality of life together?

Go isn't very search friendly, Golang is A LOT better for identifying and searching anything related to it.

On counter though, like in a game of Civilization, a population prospers technologically when more basic needs are satisfied. It's thanks to the stability the Romans enjoyed that they were able to elevate it's society culturally and technologically.

Documentation is key for adoption, creating a community and having more contributors. I hope they address this soon. :)

Hi, I don't blog regularly.

Would make my day if someone more experienced could comment on my blogging style and give me some pointers on how i could make the post more useful or interesting.

Thanks :)

Have you tried Visual Studio? It's an amazing IDE to work with when building games in Unity

Should we ban all analytics software (e.g. Google Analytics)?

Or should we regulate how analytics software handles data instead?

Interesting article Flaviu! Well done for winning the startup weekend! :)

mmmmh... dan?!

wait till i see you on monday! :)

scheduled to be added soon! :)

Yup that is neat advice :)

I have already looked at the API and asked pydanny when the needed features are due to be released.

django-annoying is a great app, but you are perfectly right links are necessary also because if I eventually add more apps it will be very likely people won't know what they are.

Thanks a lot for sharing my work here, it was a pleasant surprise to see that people care about it.

It really makes me want to improve it more! :) I will try to publish the new TODO list tomorrow!

wow... I'm really happy and excited this is here! :)

I'm the guy that built djangocanvas, I'm can't wait to make this open-source soon and find out how this project will evolve. :)

Great article. Might use a few ideas in http://www.djangocanvas.com, I sitll haven't finalized the project structure and will likely support multiple ones.

SEEKING WORK ^

don't think I can edit it anymore, thanks and good point :)

Hey guys,

not sure if anyone has realized, but for SaaS projects the Extended version of the theme is required. So $1000 is what he should have paid for the admin panel...

I hope no one involved with ThemeForest finds out :)

Came up with the idea on Sunday night after going through pycon.blip.tv.

It's a bit basic for now, would appreciate your feedback :)
