I'm a foreigner living in Germany, and can tell you this is true. 'Everyone' uses Firefox. They also really like these 2-click-social-media-buttons, because it apparently gives bet…

I'm a programmer, and know very little about art (sadly). The picture in the background here is very beautiful. Someone who makes that kind of thing, how do they do it? How do they…

What happens if someone built a service based on it? Should they never trust browsers keeping alive even the shitty (in comparison to free and standardised HTTP/2) features? What's…

Reading this, and other recent events, gives me the realisation that we need the successor of UNIX. Nowadays, everything runs UNIX. My iPhone, Android, my Mac, my Ubuntu laptop, my…

They say it's "React-like", but afaik it doesn't do the cool things with a virtual dom? What's cool about React is how it doesn't write to the DOM all the time, only when there is …

What mining does in Bitcoin is to generate consensus, so that everyone agrees on the financial history, which === keeping track of what public key owns what amount. The actual hash…

Well, Riot is pretty old... This is a major upgrade, and as such font-page-worthy I'd say.

Wouldn't Paypal be the first proprietary mover of sending money over IP, and Bitcoin being like SMTP/POP/IMAP/whatever? Or maybe I misunderstood something

A torrent index that I can view thru an emacs mode would be the most useful. If the data format is just a text tile with each torrent taking one line would be amazing. It would be …

I think Duplicity ( http://duplicity.nongnu.org ) is what you're looking for. For Ubuntu I know there's a nice GUI that anyone who can use a computer can set up. For other platform…

Does archive.org let you download dumps of all of their data? If they make a weekly torrent containing their whole data-set it would be easily immortalised...

Congrats on the kid & move to 中目黒！

I thought the same, and made a Cordova/Angular app. It was a mistake. Don't go there! It's easier to learn the native languages/sdk than to debug that mess. Also, cocoa touch is ni…

I wouldn't call Xmonad a window manager, but just a thin wrapper around X11 (C?) that happens to be written in haskell.

Why do you Ember people always try to sell Ember like a telemarketer whenever JS comes up?

>But, since you can't please everyone, it's better to have choice than to have someone's (Microsoft's/Apple's/Ubuntu's) idea of "good" forced down everyone's throat. Sometimes it's…

I thank the lord every day that the language I work in (Javascript) supports functions! I try to write pure functions as often as possible, so it's easy to refactor the code when I…

I think this comment was important to me. I've never understood what the fuzz is about, but after reading this I decided "fuck it, why not try?". I just did a 5 minute one. Genius …

Why is that?

Choosing a unified format for configurations is an interesting task, because they all suck a lot (hehe). XML is too verbose to be nice to work with. Plain text files with config fl…

I'm pretty effective with vim, so much that other 'normal' editors like sublime & other modern gui editors make me feel a little crippled. That is a problem, because you need to be…

This looks like a nice language, mad props to the author(s) for actually creating a new language, that's something I dream of doing one day! But I wonder, is this means for me to u…

that "import" function is really handy for writing short programs!

And I upvote every time.
