  1. Re:not where from, where to? on World of Warcraft Loses 1.3 Million Players in First Quarter of 2013 · · Score: 5, Informative

    League of Legends.

  2. Re:Reads like a press release on Electrical Engineer Unemployment Soars; Software Developers' Rate Drops to 2.2% · · Score: 2

    Larry Page is going to drive Google to the ground, IMHO.

    Talent is leaving the company because they found themselves being forced to work on a product they weren't passionate about. (Hello, G+!)

    So no, I don't think he knows how to be a good CEO like Eric Schmidt who made Google what it is today, which makes him unworthy of both the title and money.

  3. Programmer, Motherfucker! on Ask Slashdot: Developer Or Software Engineer? Can It Influence Your Work? · · Score: 5, Funny
  4. Re:Yes. on Is Microsoft's Price Model For the Surface Justifiable? · · Score: 1

    How is this different from Chakra?

    Nothing on the internet truly is.

  7. Re:The Most Secure Mobile OS on Ask Slashdot: Most Secure Mobile OS? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You'll be sacrificing the availability of tons of apps if you go with WP7 though.

  9. 45 million dollars on Ann Arbor Schools Want $45M For Tech, Partly For Computers To Run Google Docs · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Is more than enough to feed the entire population of Somalia, a nation that is struggling with starvation.

    And they want to spend this much money on computers?

  10. Re:Futile on Book Review: Java Performance · · Score: 3, Informative

    If you don't like JNI, you can use SWIG, it generates JNI code for you.

  11. Javascript: The good parts on Ask Slashdot: Making JavaScript Tolerable For a Dyed-in-the-Wool C/C++/Java Guy? · · Score: 5, Informative

    I suggest reading this book, it's gotten a lot of good reviews, I've seen a lot of people recommend it to people starting out with JS.

    It explains a subset of Javascript that's simple to use, and also the most used in practice.

  12. Re:Django on Ask Slashdot: Which Web Platform Would You Use? · · Score: 1

    I personally think of it as a feature, it prevents you from blindly copy pasting code.

    Sure, I had my problems with indentation when I first started learning it, but now I'm used to it, I think of it like curly braces in the C family of languages.

  13. BASIC is a horrible language. on Why Can't We Put a BASIC On the Phone? · · Score: 1

    Hobbyist programmers don't write BASIC code these days, the question you should be asking is "why can't we put python/ruby on the phone?".

  14. ddg uses bing? on Senators Recommend FTC Perform Antitrust Investigation Of Google · · Score: 1

    Proof?

  15. Re:Why I only do iOS on Why Developers Still Prefer iOS To Android · · Score: 1

    Care to elaborate on why Android is an awful platform?

    Oh, and Android is NOT a cross platform API, Android apps only work on Android, unless you mean that the SDK and tools are cross platform.

  16. Really? on Microsoft Working On Kinect 2 · · Score: 1

    I'm waiting for Kinect 4

  17. Use nginx? on Apache Flaw Allows Internal Network Access · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Why would anyone use Apache as a reverse proxy anyway?

    I mean, there's nginx, and it runs circles around Apache as far as I know.

  18. I tried this days ago. on Meet Firefox's Built-In PDF Reader · · Score: 2

    It does work, but it's still alpha quality at best.

    Page layout is messed up.

  19. Re:Now there's a threesome /. doesn't see every da on Nokia Preps Linux OS For Low-End Smartphones · · Score: 1

    Sony Ericsson is known to put out quality hardware, Nokia is known for just putting out.

  20. Re:It's an investment. on Microsoft Has Lost $5.5 Billion On Bing Since 2009 · · Score: 0

    The one good thing about Microsoft is that they tend to stick to what they started. It's not like Google who might just cancel the product you're using the next day.

    Yeah, they really stuck to VB6 and silverlight.

  21. Re:Lol open sores on The Letter That Started AMD's Open-Source Strategy · · Score: 2

    Even their closed-source driver sucks, it's not just the open source one.

  22. Sourceforge? on Skein Hash... In Bash · · Score: 1

    Why didn't you post this on Github?

    At least it has syntax highlighting, I'm no expert at Bash, but I don't think anyone would appreciate reading it with no syntax highlighting.

  23. Larry Ellison? on The Tech Sector's Best Beards · · Score: 1

    What is this guy doing in this article?

  24. I still turn my computer off on The Death of Booting Up · · Score: 2

    There's one good reason why I do that.

    I live in a VERY hot country, if I leave my computer on for a long time, the components will just melt, or at least it'll affect performance sooner than it should.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but heat is bad for computer parts.

    Suspend to RAM/Sleep keeps everything running, it does save some electricity, but I don't know if the savings are worth it.

    Maybe I should try suspending to disk?

  25. There's a battle between M$ and Google? on Computer Scientist Calls For Web Search Shake-Up · · Score: 1

    And it's over web search?

    That's odd, I thought it was just Google.

    I'm sorry, but I Bing doesn't really count as a serious search engine, at least for me.
