Used it in college about 8 years ago. Can't say I'd do the same today, but back at that time it made some sense as college programming classes were teaching more than just practica…

Superior is a strong word, if your preference is to bottom out flat keys then thats all well and good. I personally type like I am playing an instrument, pressing just enough to ac…

I would invest in a few storage coins, there are 2-3 major ones depending on who you ask. I wont list them here, do some research put a little into 2 of the ones you think are best…

$.99 is an easy buy even if I don't love it

I have been a Sublime 2 user for 4 years now and have always been content with the experience. When I first used Atom because it was the only browser supported by Hacklang's toolin…

I can't agree more, There is no reason that editing text files would need a full web browser which is buggy and slow. Many of these javascript apps which are replacing native apps …

It may be because in the past 5 years from today most of these languages have seized development. It is still interesting to see which of the "New Hotness" languages of 2011 are st…

I have had the same experience you had. My mother ran a deli in a middle class neighborhood and she couldn't sell enough $8-10 subs which had higher quality meats so she made a che…

I doubt they are subsidizing the cost with shipping fee's. They probably hired out the shipments to an outside company which charges a fee for labor time, as well as packaging. Ama…

So you don't expect to pay taxes or shipping of something you buy online?

By being/attempting to be the "low cost leader" really brings out the worst people in comments. People who complain about shipping and packaging and the price on other sites and th…

I can understand, the McDonalds in my hometown had the ball pit and all the 1950's fixings until about 5 years ago when they ripped it all out and did the same but the real killer …

It seem to me that the newly renovated McDonalds are more like Panera's so I can see the appeal to go there to hang and converse. My friends and I used to always hang out at McDona…

I feel you on the 'he' argument, it may be because I have relatively large hands or it really isn't an issue for some people. Dvorak seems to be better for bursts of speed on some …

There are for sure a handful of cons, like not being able to use someone elses computer without some painful layout switching time. But as someone who works on a keyboard all day i…

I have tried both Workman and Colemak. I first tried Workman but ran into the issue of that on my phone and on other peoples laptops the layout was unavailable. So I moved to Colem…

I used to have night terrors as a child and pre teen. It is the scariest thing one could imagine for those who have never experienced it. For myself I would be partially awake but …

This is all too true. I had people in my 300 level Networking who even after that class didn't know how DNS servers worked (at a high level).

C was not designed to create gui's. So its a feat of accomplishment as opening a bottle with your teeth.

Others have provided good answers but I'll add my 2 cents. Neovim was made to be fully(Mostly?) backwards compatible with all Vim specific features, and most Vi features. You may b…

Been using Neovim for about 6 months now, The only real difference I have felt so far is that I was able to remove a few lines from my .vimrc, like history=10000 as Neovim does thi…

Some NES games used some crafty hacks to get more sprites on screen then allowed by the GPU and Video Ram, I am curious if they will every be able to render that without having to …

All we need now is a big fake plastic gun mount for our sensor, and a VR phone holder and we will be talking. Everywhere is a war zone.

Are there any Female focused Coworking spaces and meetup groups in NYC? I am looking to help out someone important to me get into tech and she is hoping to meet other women in tech…

I had a professor who worked in a Dupont lab in New Jersey. He studied crystal structures using x-rays, something too cool for me to comprehend. Anyway he said the lab did work wit…
