Really? Im facepalming so hard right now that I probably have black eyes. It is _every_ _software_ _developers_ _obligation_ to always question the approaches and solutions of their peers and their own. Feelings?? bits don't have feelings. Bit operations aren't emotional. Software doesn't need a hug. If I'm "doing it wrong", I expect—no, demand—that my peers inform me and show me the best way, to the best of their understanding of the problem space. If it turns out they're doing it wrong too, then we'll learn together. If constructive criticism annoys you, you are the problem. -Rick -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
