    What Stack for Project?

    Not sure you have any special requirements that dictate what stack you should be using. Such as scaling for multiple regions. If that is the case, then any stack you pick should be sufficient at getting the job done. I would recommend you implement it the best way you know how, and right now...

    States Pass Laws Backing Uber's View Of Drivers As Contractors

    If Uber were a true free market, then existing taxi companies should be able to list their services on there much like Ebay or Airbnb allows competing marketplaces to list. Instead, Uber dictates the level of service, controls who receives the most business as well as how much to charge. Uber...

    Courts Expand Class-Action Lawsuit Against Uber

    Well, if your business model is to dictate how, when, how much, and where to do business to your employees and somehow get away with classifying them as contractors, you're gonna have a bad time. What they should be pivoting to is allowing the drivers to set their own pricing and service if...

    PHP/SQL Code Question

    Also, the reason your single/double quotes work on certain values is probably because you are not properly escaping the single/double quotes. For example, if your sql statement used single quotes, and the value you are trying to insert contained single quotes, you need to escape that character.

    Mac Pro (Late 2013) or Macbook Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2014)

    I think it depends entirely on your portability needs. If you work at home most of the time and already have a display to use, the Mac Pro offers a better user experience because it has much better hardware. If you plan on taking your work with you on the go, then the Macbook Pro Retina will...

    2014's Starting Salaries for College Tech Majors

    Got a job working at a big, well known company.

    Honest Apple review

    Andy, your review is sadly just as confusing as the parody of your review. I am not sure why you bothered writing such a review when the answer was obvious. Yes, your desktop can do things that your macbook cannot. Just like your spoon can't cut a steak. You were using the wrong tool, and...

    JSON on local network, post to web

    I'm not quite sure why you need JSON, but format problems aside it sounds like most of your requirements could be solved by installing a database server.

    What's your personal programming workflow? How do you plan/plot/track?

    Knowing that you are somebody who gets lost on tangents, why on earth would you ask us to supply you with more tools to be distracted by? Your goal should be reducing the things you do to achieve the desired result, not increasing them.

    Future Job

    That's a broad generalization that I don't think is accurate. It depends on your employer. That being said, I would like to say that it is difficult to find a perfect opportunity which meets the three crucial requirements: 1. Something you are passionate about. 2. Pays you well 3...

    C++ linked lists

    a database is not a data structure, it is an application. e.g. how do you implement a database in c++? more than likely it would involve using a data structure such as an array or a linked list, or both.

    Am I headed in the right direction with REST and Java?

    To answer your question regarding HTTP methods and how they relate to REST, you are correct in your assumption that POST is really the only option for the submission of data. If you are using an MVC framework, you would map an object in java using special attributes in the model code (class...

    30% off Dell Refurbished Monitors - U2913WM for $350

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the reason why Dell is the preferred monitor brand over other supposed superior monitor brands is Dell has a 100% satisfaction guarantee where you can exchange any monitor for whatever reason, such as finding a single dead pixel, or bad backlighting. For somebody...

    Proxy Redirect

    Depends on the types of links pens.com has. If they are absolute links (i.e. they specifically say go to http://www.pens.com/shop.html) then nothing can be done. However, if they are relative links (i.e. they just go to relative "shop.html"), then no additional effort is required on your part to...

    Proxy Redirect

    Yeah, assuming you have 500-1000 separate servers that could definitely be annoying to deploy. If your company only runs 1 server, though, it would be fairly easy to write a script to generate the site configurations. Perhaps a side-benefit to using this method is you could make it a permanent...

    Proxy Redirect

    If your webserver is apache you could create a site configuration that uses mod_proxy to redirect buypens.com to pens.com and parse the apache access log for statistics. there are a number of tools you could install on your server that can parse the apache access log, such as AWStats...

    Post your Mouse and Keyboard pics

    Tried, it definitely does not. The etching is very shallow and the plastic is thick. What ends up happening is the part of the keycap which connects to the switch ends up showing through the key, but not the etching.
