Look into the history of the phrase he used - and you will realize that you are wrong.

I used to work for an ad network (BSA, Carbon Ads, etc) that does not intrusively track and believes in the effectiveness of quality one-ad-per-page. Try contacting @toddo on twitt…

How about you take his apology and move on?

Best practice is to return concrete types for everything, but error is one of those "special" cases that people tend to return an `error` for, IME. You can always unwrap it via typ…

The real issue here is that it is not immediately obvious that this is actually an interface - one expects the second `err` to be *FormatError due to the signature - it happens to …

Absolutely a QA thing. I don't see how either of the devices I purchased got a seal of approval to go out to a customer. I just don't see why I'd pay _extra_ for something I'm goin…

Over the past 4 years, I've bought two System76 machines (FD: work paid for them). Each time, I maxed out what I was able to get from them. Initially I had wanted to support a comp…

Example: Recently built a small service that responds to requests and walks various files looking for data. The service can be asked to unload (close) the file, but it's hard to sa…

Having met most of the LessEverything guys, I'd definitely say they know what they are doing.

I hate to be "that guy", I think that taking courses online is a waste of time. 1. What do you want to learn? Web development? Systems programming? Native application programming (…

99.9% of the time, yes.

Speaking as someone who was familiar with Jeremy many years ago, I feel compelled to say that despite his more "radical" nature (as some have noted), he really is a great person. I…

The networks that allow untrusted code (js or flash) are the ones to blame for this, and I'm glad that seems to be the general consensus. It seems bizarre to me that anyone would a…

Surely, you must be joking. Do you really expect someone to work on this - not just one app, but four - without payment, and a hard budget of $1,200? I'm sorry to sound condescendi…
