Everybody’s talking about how programming is the skill that we all are going to need. [Except those folks who might feel that most programming could be turned into wizard-like tools. Insert long discussion about Strong AI.] But what’s a programmer? Is the guy who set up his own Apache Web Server a programmer? How about [...]

The EU Creed – “Try and Try again there is no do” The negotiations have gone on for months. If you truly believe that it’s about making Greece’s’ debts more affordable you’re mad, this is about setting targets that are impossible to meet, thus creating a situation wherein Greece becomes a third world country outside [...]

I have been messing around with Node.js pretty much like I did with Ruby back in the day. Its quite cool, and seems a bit faddy when you get to the nitty gritty. I can’t be bothered to write some actual content I have linked some posts that outline just some of the reasons node [...]

If the US economy really is creating jobs, then you’d expect the rate of creation to be up there with growth. But it isn’t. In the last quarter of 2011, American economic growth was recorded as 2.8%. In that period, roughly 145,000 jobs were ‘created’ according to the Labor stats. That adds up to a [...]

The puzzle is why firms pay huge sums to big name consulting firms, when their advice comes from kids fresh out of college, who spend only a few months studying an industry they previous knew nothing about. How could such quick-made advice from ignorant recent grads be worth millions? Why don’t firms just ask their [...]
