I can only use my own color palette, because it is designed to separate features by hue. In my case, comments are gray, constants are yellow, strings are purple, markup like HTML i…

> the color schemes for syntax highlight are subjectively less pleasing I fixed that particular issue by making my own color schemes. I am probably the only user, but this is OK.

In my case I had a very dark CRT monitor. Likely burned out after many years of use. This is the tool I made to make it brighter: https://github.com/macondobits/gamma It resides in…

It's so hard it will probably be replaced by an AI in 50 years. Welcome, overlords, etc.

C++ seems very niche for web development, but it is actually very popular for game development. Try asking in the /r/gamedev and the /r/gameDevClassifieds subreddits. I'm sure some…

There's a way to detect the system decimal separator using JavaScript, but it only works in IE and Firefox, and it doesn't work in Chrome because it is marked as 'optional' in the …

Bitcoin seems a viable alternative. However its value goes up and down constantly.

What you describe as awkward I find much more interesting.

I think I agree with you on all fronts, simply because the online cmake documentation is not as good as it should be. For BLAS, it has a find_package ( BLAS ) script, which you can…

Compiling what? May be some of us can help you. If it's C++, I did learn cmake, and now I use the same script for Ubuntu and for Win7/VS2008 and Win8.1/VS2012, and so far I just do…

I used to suffer from various small pains, even a Quake2 induced pain in the dorsal side of the hand, and they stopped when I started to use a bike and lift weights.

About office, someone there have made WPS Office, and that's what I'm using in Ubuntu right now.

I think D is a better C++, and just for my bias confirmation, some things I read in the C++ guidelines are clearly influenced by D, or easier to do in D. It doesn't compile to C++,…

Totally indisputable in the year 2000. But less and less true everyday. Today, we have Steam, the Indie Bundles, etc.

I have noticed that Ubuntu haters are not Linux haters at all, they are previous Ubuntu users, or simply fans of other distributions. P.S.: RedHat is selling server versions and su…

Actually, they should try. They are not obligated, but it is in their best interests to build a reputation of not breaking things. I do think that Linux lacks a reputation of not b…

VMware tools will also not install.

Or, psychologically speaking, it puts you in a strong position. Think about poker. Do you really know the other player knows all your cards when he/she bluffs?

I think Opera already does that.

I want to see a Wt (witty) benchmark. C++ is welcome here too.

Actually, that level of detail makes the moral dilemma simpler.

Why I don't think parents know how to parent anymore. For those parents, the problem is videogames, or Marilyn Manson's music, or bicycles, or movies, or obscene writing but never,…

1) I remember AltaVista to be clearly dominant in the search engine space. Yahoo was not the dominant player in search, and never has been, they were a curated directory of sites.
