If you have total freedom, in which language would you love to write all day?

You can answer with the language you love and why. Or upvote an answer if the language is already mentioned there.

Thanks! Just being curious :)

Git DMZ Flow

I've been asked a few times over the last few months to put together a full write-up of the Git workflow we use at RichRelevance (and at Precog before), since I have referenced it in passing quite a few times in tweets and in person. The workflow is appreciably different from GitFlow and its derivatives, and thus it brings with it a different set of tradeoffs and optimizations. To that end, it would probably be helpful to go over exactly what workflow benefits I find to be beneficial or even necessary.

Two developers working on independent features must never be blocked by each other
- No code freeze! Ever! For any reason!
A developer must be able to base derivative work on another developer's work, without waiting for any third party
Two developers working on inter-dependent features (or even the same feature) must be able to do so without interference from (or interfering with) any other parties
Developers must be able to work on multiple features simultaneously, or at lea

ANNOUNCEMENT

I have moved this over to the Tech Interview Cheat Sheet Repo and has been expanded and even has code challenges you can run and practice against!

	import mobx from 'mobx'

	const DEFAULT_STYLE = 'color: #006d92; font-weight:bold;'

	// Just call this function after MobX initialization
	// As argument you can pass an object with:
	// - collapsed: true -> shows the log collapsed
	// - style -> the style applied to the action description
	export const startLogging = ({ collapsed, style } = {}) => {
