I have to agree, I've programmed in a good few languages over the years and really you need to go with what makes you happy and keeps you paid. I write in Java everyday and love it to bits. I have a fantastic IDE and I know my language inside out as well as a good few APIs.

But you know what, a JavaScript programmer could say just the same or a RoR guy.

The 'Get over yourself' part maybe a little harsh but there is some reality to it. Do what works for you sure, but generating negativity towards other languages will just make you unhappy. Instead ask top developers in each language/platform why they like their language/platform you'll learn loads and maybe gain an appreciation for the variation and multiplicity that we're fortunate to have.

Then go and work somewhere where you like the language :-)

+1 You can’t trust the Referer header.

It’s usually a bad sign about the interviewer’s interviewing skills, not always them as a person or the team.

I have worked for some nice, amiable smart folk who interview like crazy people. It’s the whole > IT skills < social skills thing.

But I empathise - I really don’t like interviews which are like that, especially when they’re usually a game to try and make the interviewer seem smarter than the interviewee.

Great idea, get apps out of the ghetto!

Added, and extra fonts and colour depth fixed :-)

Yeah I think it’s the ‘with finesse part’ that is worth pursuing for sure.

Why thank you kind sir/lady.

So this came about because people keep asking me for what tool to use to full page snapshots. And while there are tools that do it on your local machine, most web tools are just focussed on integrating with other sites not the user experience. So I thought I’d give it a quick go - I’ll probably add the scaling stuff at some point, just want to keep it nice and easy for users at the mo.

Thanks for the feedback!
