    Yes! The first thing I did was check Fakespot. This doesn't even seem that sophisticated. Same phrases, same reviewers, I don't know how Fakespot missed it. I thought those were ke…

    Because there are nicer, faster and more sturdy languages available. Ruby, Python, Go, and JavaScript, to name a few. The age-old "PHP is so easy to deploy!!1" rhetoric doesn't rea…

    I tried, but stopping the world hurts. Reusing stacks helps, but you're fighting the language from the very beginning. It wouldn't be a wise choice for even soft real-time IMO, you…

    Same. It's funny that the primary reason I haven't upgraded to iOS 7 is because I like my screen red at night. F.lux is the one tweak that I can't live without, and probably would …
