    Respectfully, you're missing the point. It is often the best (and only, in my mind) choice, and it is always sad. It's not the word or even the concept that's the problem. Using it…

    Definitely agree. I just had to euthanize my beloved dog two days ago and reading that truly hurt. Between that and several aspects of the post other commenters have already pointe…

    Agreed, I'm more confused than ever. I've been really sad to watch Voice die, and begrudgingly migrated towards Hangouts. Now I don't know what app I'm supposed to be using. Do I o…

    You're missing the Fusion drive, which is standard on the high-end and $200 extra on the mid-level.

    I agree. I really winced at that bizarre syntax. I find it strange to read and painfully unintuitive to write. It's not just "un-Pythonic"; it's unlike almost any other library. I …

    I've been using this for the past month or so, and overall I think it's the best app for Muni. The interface is not anywhere near as slick as the Google Maps app for example, but f…

    I agree Bottle is simple and has some nice features, but I'm a little wary of the decorator-based "micro"frameworks. In my experience it can lead to strange code structure and it's…
