Accurate but so arrogant. HN purity achieved.

FWIW, I've disliked the look of Python from the first time I saw it and loved Lisp-like syntax immediately. Can agree on C though.

Not necessarily. I'd expect the leader of an organized crime group to be very responsible but shady as hell.

I had a very similar experience. I stick to a 10 keyless keyboard (no numpad) but I gave up on the trackball. I use a wireless trackpad now because I ended up with pains in my thum…

I think the point was that users implicitly want content from these labels based on the music they look for. Not that they're looking for music from those labels or are aware of wh…

Funny, my reaction to the first comment was "douchebag"...

I learned Ruby before learning anything about Rails. I've used it off and on professionally for 7 or 8 years for production services, testing, and random glue/batch code. It felt s…

I didn't really grasp this until I moved to the US... They don't fucking care what makes sense around some issues like this. I've asked seemingly rational colleagues, who work as p…
