I'm a dynamic languages fan and even I take offense at that. Static languages can do anything dynamic languages do and them some, they are just more verbose about it. It should be possible to adapt this IDE to C++ for instance.
I have always been amazed at this stupid "only the government counts" idea. A corporations can sue you for anything and drag the legal battle so long as to financially ruin you even if you are right. They can put you in some blacklist and make sure you never get a good job again. They can deny you credit and insurance. They have a million ways to make your life hell, and they can do it privately. They are unaccountable mini-dictatorships.
It's insane to trust corporations with privilegues you wouldn't trust the government with.
Funny to see a Ruby coder complaining that Perl can't be "superior". Because, the difference between Ruby and Perl is analogous with the difference between Python and Ruby.
Ruby has a symbol type in addition to strings, You can get the length of an array with either Array::size or Array::length. Python gets along with only strings and len.
Perl on the other hand has motherfucking *programmable syntax* bitches. Whether that is unpractical bloat or a priceless feature seems to be a matter of taste.
Yes, but is it concious? Because I'm so aware of my bias, I actually go out of my way to thing ways in which I'm wrowng about all my opinions. So, liek you. I don't believe in magic at all, but the bias is there.
Except it never works that way. If they figure that you would buy the more expensive price they will sell it to you at the highest price you are willing to pay. From there they work their way down if the product doesn't sell well.
I'll bet my right testicle you won't see any benefit from this move unless you are management at Best Buy (or your dad/mom/boyfriend/etc).
And while I would agree that fraud returners are bad, I just have to wonder how many loophooles is Best Buy is abusing to avoid taxes. In the end this is simply an increase in the power imbalance but yeah, for the averange honest citizen/consumer this sounds like an improvement.
On the bright side the facebook icon comes from http://a.fsdn.com/sd/commentshareicons.png and it's fused with the g+ and t ones. So unless you click on them facebook isn't getting any tracking info.
But yes, the problems of slashdot could be simplified as "does not understand it's userbase" we could said that slashdot is doing an ubuntu, trashing their users wishes and hoping for "better users". Given the huge fraction ofr slashdot readers who use adblock, they might even be right, Maybe that's the whoe point attracting the same low common denominator from reddit and turning away the senior members who, in many ways make Slashdot what it is.
Main problem with dissenters is how easy it is to disband them. Firstly any body needs a head, and the FBI/CIA have practice with headshots. If anyone starts making sense they throw them in jail. It's really easy given todays level of population surveillance and overbearing laws.
Downloaded a song? Jailtime. Smoke weed? Jailtime had a younger girlfriend when he was in collegue? Statutory rape => jailtime.
Even if nothing can be found to get rid of a target (Cardinal Richelieu whould be dissapoint) you can thrump up false charges or, if pressed for time, charge him with disrruption of order or (for anyone seeking *actual* effective action) incitation to violence. It's therefore almost impossible to coordinate an organized rebelion. Which only means that any rebellion that does succed will be utter chaos.
The data set covers more than span of human civilization. Now, what part of geology or astronomy is falsifiable and repeatable in the same sense than a chemestry experiment? Falsifiable and repeatable in these fields means that everybody can draw the same measurements and run the same models. AWG is the best theory available when it comes to describing global clime changes, what is your theory? The "Dun wurry keepon drillin baby" theory?
How dare they let people know information I published about myself? That information was to be use only for marketing purposes and to let them know better ways to convince me tu buy the same stuff and by the government to nail me because I apparently visit the sames spots as someone who smokes weed and whatever other things they disaprove like religious criticism in Ireland.
Slashdot doesn't tie votes with user accounts or comments with real names, no entity can harvest it to get information that you didn't intend to share with parties that you didn't intend to. The Chinese government can't get this information by hacking Slashdot nor the USA one can request it by force, there is no comparison, you are a troll.
AGW fiasco? Are you talking about Anthropomorphic Global Warming?
Are you fucking blind and deaf or how else did you miss all the evidence and models backing it up? Do I have to make a Google search for you? Are you going to tell me that until you can duplicate global warming in your very own Earth you aren't going to belive any of it?
I know the ZLTTP tiles to heart and I can absolutely say these aren't the original tiles. I absolutely agree with the "inspiration" part, the "look&feel" is similar, but the tiles are original artwork.
I understand editors, but once you have multiple writers the idea of violating the individual creativity of a writer is moot since they already start by making creativite compromises and brainstorming and what not. I'm pretty enamoured with the idea of single author works. Other people can contribute advice and corrections but should never be on a level field with the writer to the point when they just become cowriters.
Of course cowriten works have a right to exist, but in that case who cares if the fans are writing it or not? It's not like they are interfering with someone's artistic process.
What amazes me is how OLD is this idea. People have been making jokes about TVs that refuse or chare you for muteing or skiping ads or turning it off since forever. It's exactly the kind of dystopic future that is often deemed unrealistic and exagerated fantasy of luddites and hippies. Anf snd now we have the patent for it...

Yes, what we need is is live unit testing, nothing less would do. Except I'm sloppy and avoid TDD but that's my fault.

In all fairness neither maxim is right 100% of the time.

Gobby is not perfect and has some editing issues but it's excellent for pair programming or at least to conduct source reviews.

Single must fucking insightful comment in this article.
Which of course you pulled from your arse. Find a way to stop being a troll please. I suggest cyanide.

If you know it's not stealing why did you say it? If you think it's not why accept it?

It was from the French word soufre.
I'm pretty sure it comes from the Latin Sulphuris.
No! You should've made it copyleft!
