There is an industry software that gets used a lot called iNews.
There's a reddit thread with comments from people who work at news orgs.
Vox Media (The Verge, SBNation, Curbed, Polygon) built its own CMS called Chorus.
The NYTimes uses WordPress for some of its blogs.
And I assume the Washington Post built their own since, well, Bezos.
People have been saying MBA's are worthless for a while. Look at this http://content.time.com/time/m...
Key quote from the article: "Lutz says, we need to fire the M.B.A.s and let engineers run the show."
It's actually far worse than just Forbes... . He writes a blog for the NYTimes (christ its tech coverage is crap), Huff Post and he is a talking head on various business shows. And some sort of conman... er, I mean, motivational speaker. The guy makes a living talking, but not actually doing much else.
Maybe he can't get a date because he's a creep? Please Google "Nice guys of OKCupid." Look at the women who actually commented on his post: http://webcache.googleusercont...
It's the same error as always: correlation != causation. The guy isn't actually a techie, but a manager (overhead), who has no credentials whatsoever: http://resume.jeffreifman.com/
I understand that this was meant to be a joke, and I find it funny. But if only it worked that way. Sure it's a bunch of guys, but they're still mostly all straight, which does me no good. Might as well go live at Wellesley College.
I've done PHP for 10 years, and then switched to C#, and I'm never looking back. EVER.
Not only is the language shit, but look at the implementation: http://use.perl.org/use.perl.o...
If the value of the variable is larger than INT_MAX.... do this... there we go, overflow averted... -_-
Sooo... "Need to eavesdrop on someone? There's an app for that." And I make this joke as an iPhone user who got the 4S the first week it was out, so please, no "Apple hater" accusations.
FireSSH is better. The client runs locally on your machine through FF. No server plugin required. And you don't have to worry about the server hosting the HTML5 frontend going down with FireSSH, unlike this Gate One's 404 and 500 errors.
Ever since the merger, the company's games have been shit, and I completely blame the Enix side of the family. Square Co. produced some of the most memorable and genre defining games, such as FF, Chrono Trigger, Xenogears, Secret of Mana/Evermore. (full list here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Square_games).
WTF has Enix ever released that was as noteworthy or even approaches the quality of Square?
Seriously, Google uses Java prolifically enough across multiple platforms --- why not just buy the rights to Java and open source it. The company has tons of money, and I'm pretty sure Google would be a better steward.
I mean, how long has Java 7 been in the works? Even Google's own Java architect thinks the language has fallen behind. Google could fix what's wrong with Java and in record time.
In many states, students (kids under 18), are the responsibility of the school between the hours of business. Technically, the teachers/admins are the parents between 8 am and 3 pm. So they can punish as they see fit, regardless of when said activity occured. Also, the school provides sports and other activities, and it's in its purview to remove them as well.
Mercury Center's Test Director is a pile of crap. I'm a developer and have to use it because one of our clients use it throughout the entire organization (hundreds of people, testers, developers, etc.).
It installs an unbelievable number of ActiveX components (IE), or requires a separate extension for Mozilla/Firefox. TD behaves nothing like a WebApp. There are no standard page refreshs, but instead, it uses the ActiveX/FF plug-in and tries to feels client side software. It's similar to what AJAX tries to accomplish, but with horrible response time, browser freezes, unexplained disconnections, and a silly permissions system.
Hyperbolize at your leisure. No one is implying blind people should be barred from all activities like you suggest. It is common sense, however, that we limit blind people from activities where they have a clear handicap and there is significant potential for them to injure themselves and other people. Do we allow blind people to drive unsupervised?

For a second, I thought Rip Taylor died. That would also be tragic.

Oh Hi Jeff.

I can barely make sense of what this person is saying. Did you attend a bootcamp for sentence structure, punctuation and grammar?
Thank you. I would think the current editors pay a little more attention... Is this the new Slashdot? Have I been away for so long?
And in about 20 years, it will make it into the REHL derivative my company uses... sigh.
Google.... is your friend.
Cute headline, anon, but it's kinda misleading and reeks of BuzzFeed's desperate "read me!" attempts.

I don't think a new domain will prevent stupid mistakes like this: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/06/14/citigroup_website_hack_simple/ In short, Citibank's website was "hacked" by changing the account number in the URL. Account numbers exposed via GET requests.

Uhh. Yes, RIFT is doing quite well and is preparing to release a new major patch.

I think this has been asked and answered on Slashdot. Please see here: http://ask.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/08/01/00 38210

Avoid test director.

Oh, well, I stand corrected and retract me previous statement. Thanks for the clarification.
Only in Texas can something this asinine be proposed.
