@TimStone Should only be 20 seconds for you, but apparently the error message isn't adjusted for mods/trusted users - so it'll say 60 when you hit it in 20.

i am trying to think independent of time, on the other hand central value is very intresting point i think.. if you vary between two points it may refer to swinging pendulum and then if you develop to "any direction" even then you out of directions then i think that "that is it" for the moment .. i mean somehow that point do we need "center", what do you think — asdf_enel_hak8 hours ago
It is used to cast variable into pointer of char type. for eg -
char p = 'a';
char* a = (char *) p;
In the above example the 'a' will have address of the variable 'p'.

According to this questionable code I wrote, that "closing room" SO chatroom I linked to has led to the deletion of over 700 questions in the last week.
In defense of that deletion fest, it's all questions where the problem was just a typo in the OPs code. So there's not really much usefulness for future visitors.

@MichaelMrozek did you read it more carefully? Someone else did, and reverted their downvote. Generally "what should I learn next" is too open-ended. But I'm qualifying it here very specifically: what other skills are considered requirement to working with Meteor. For example, if you want to make a web page and you're studying HTML and CSS but unaware of Javascript, Javascript would be something you should know about. Did I basically cover it all? I don't know what I don't know.
@MichaelMrozek I think you are mistaken. There is a right answer here. It's not an open-ended discussion type questions.
I read it; I don't know how "what are skills are considered requirements" is better than "what should I learn next", they're the same question worded differently. There absolutely isn't a right answer, there is no actual objective list of required knowledge to use Meteor
@MichaelMrozek yes there is. I know some of them at least. Javascript, Mongodb and JSON are on that list. What else is important? Something for UI development or data validation? I'm want to prepare myself so I don't have to google for hours everyday trying to work past all the challenges I will face.
People here are so insensitive. How does it benefit anyone to downvote this question? It only harms someone (me) who is trying to learn and understand. Rather discourteous lot.
There are about 20000 meta posts exploring the reasons questions get downvoted/closed/deleted; in short it's because leaving bad questions on the site encourages people to ask more bad questions
Here's the difference: "what sport should I learn next" is open ended. "What skills aer required to scuba dive" isn't. (learn how to swim, learn about the physics and physiology of respiration under pressure and time-tables, etc.)
It got downvoted because people carelessly pigeon-holed it as something it was not. I hope some intelligent people here will upvote it. Cheers!
But trying to construct a list of all knowledge required to scuba dive seems ridiculous to me; it's so much less useful than a particular question about a specific problem you ran into while trying to scuba dive
It's like asking "what errors could I run into while compiling?" instead of "what is causing this error I just got?"
@MichaelMrozek Its just that I'm trying to avoid having to google every then minutes for an answer. So I want to study the required skills first. I don't have a long history as a web developer, so all the things which are commonsense to some of you people is not so obvious to me. I think the scuba analogy is valid. Is it better that I go diving and then ask for help after I've blown my ear drums before I didn't know how to equalize?
Hi :1306688 What prompted me is that I prototyped a UI for an application I want to build in Meteor but I'm not sure how to move forward. Should I hand-code it in handlebars.js HTML template system? Should I know about some javascript UI library? What about validation? What are most people doing? I need more background knowledge to even know how to proceed. I have read the Meteor docs. Entirely! But they don't discuss a lot about UI design and validation. Some people use backbone for these things, but as a full-stack framework Meteor makes that unnecessary.
my end goal is that I'd like to port our WordPress site to Meteor/Mongodb so I can extend it with a lot of additional development features which are way beyond WordPress capabilities. Basically the company is moving from a CMS to a full-fledged custom social commerce site. It's a big project. I will outsource much of it, but want to learn as much as I can to contribute and to maintain after release.
ok well trying to get help on stackoverflow has turned out to be extremely unproductive. Is there another stack web property where people would be more helpful in providing guidance? Or should I just pay some Meteor hotshot on odesk $100 to give me an hour lecture?
This place makes no practical sense. The reopen guidelines told me to reedit to try to get it re-opened. Then someone comes along and REVERTS my edits to ensure it will not be reopened. Your people can be real cunts.
> ##How should I architect my Meteor application's UI?
> I'm moving from desktop development to web dev, and starting by converting our WordPress site to Meteor/Mongodb so that I can add development features beyond WordPress's capabilities.
> I've prototyped the UI in Meteor, but I'm unsure which direction to take next... Should I hand-code the logic in handlebars.js's HTML template system? Should I look for a custom JavaScript UI library? I've read the Meteor docs in their entirety, but they don't really discuss things like UI design or validation; I guess what I'm looking for is guidance on how a Meteor application should be constructed before I head too far in the wrong direction.
You can (and should) flesh that out a bit more, but the goal should be to describe the specific problem you're facing, and let folks who do know something about what they're doing respond with advice on what you need.
The way your question is structured right now, you could easily end up with a list of libraries that won't do you any good at all - from well-meaning folks who simply have no idea what you're trying to do.
I'm sorry the guidance you received in comments wasn't particularly great, but I believe this is what folks were driving at: you're asking for an ocean and hoping you'll be able to filter it down to what you need, when you could just ask "what do I need for the task I've set out for myself?"
Sigh, why can't I have four votes if there are four candidates I'd like to vote for and four positions? Feature request: Let me have as many votes as there are positions in this election.

My bounty on this question is ending. But I didn't get any solution. Now the up-votes will give the answerer 50% of the bounty. But this answer does not solve it.
Shouldn't there be a way to prevent automatic awarding of a bounty? For example, if someone provides an answer that sounds good but is totally wrong, it may happen that it gets a score of +2, but doesn't deserve the bounty. If noone else answers, half the bounty will automatically go to this pers...
@DanielFischer Not only that - people might be tempted to not vote for one of their favorites because they think he'll be a shoo-in and the other three favorites need the votes more. AKA the Brad Larson Effect.
@mmyers Right. I've done my share that it not be renamed the Andrew Barber effect. But after my first two there were still two candidates I wanted to vote for :(
@DanielFischer Or you can bribe @mmyers, if lightning hasn't struck him yet. He won't tell you though, somehow's he's immune to the inherent corruption and cronyism that comes with being a moderator.
