I no longer mantain this list. There are lots of other very comprehensive JavaScript link lists out there. Please see those, instead (Google "awesome JavaScript" for a start).

                Am I doing it wrong?
              
          
    Dear Rubyists,
I just lost a contract because of my code in a Rails project.
The specific code in question is related to a "posting a comment" feature. Here are the details:
In this project, "posting a comment" does not simply entail inserting a row into the database. It involves a procedure to yes, insert a row, but also detect its language, check for spam, send emails, and "share" it to Twitter and Facebook. I believe this algorithm should be encapsulated. I do not believe it belongs in a controller or a model. I do not believe Active Record callbacks should be used.
The "senior developer", whom is the stake holder's right hand man, said this:
