Ugh... sourceforge.net? No, thanks.

On top of the weather, which is a big deal to a lot of people, the problem is exactly in what you said: there are two huge tech companies. And that's it. Basically, if you move to …

Java (or better, Kotlin) coupled with DropWizard (or Jetty or Tomcat).

Things get dated in engineering too. The writing has been on the wall for Rails for a while now, we're just seeing an increasingly large number of people publicly moving on from it…

Interesting take but I disagree with one point: > This style of designing abstractions is often quite foreign in programming in the large, and other schools of thought (see Gang of…

Here is a penny so you can by some more ram. You can keep the change.

I have a feeling that by the time this happens, a lot of the Python developers will have moved to Go or some other language.

It's always interesting to see the only people who ever talk about JavaFX are either Oracle employees or people who have a financial interest in JavaFX, such as the author of this …

This is the usual privacy hysteria knee-jerk reaction: "Watch out, the big companies are going to get data on you!". And people are going to react exactly like they've done before:…

Isn't it ironic to write this tool in a language that is not available on Windows[1]? [1] "Windows support is comming soon. " https://ocaml.org/docs/install.html

Predicting that a company will fail without giving a date is not foreshadowing, it's stating the obvious.

Interesting but since they are designing a revised syntax, I wish they had got rid of Ocaml's semi colon. These stand out in 2016.

The whole article is about Gerber, it should have been called "Why Gerber can't innovate". As plenty others have already pointed out, the tech industry is currently being led by ve…

> Too bad Google isn't more aggressive at keeping malware out of the Play Store. I don't know, how often do we hear about this kind of malware on Google Play? Not nearly as often a…

Ah, I stand corrected.

Seriously. The fact that Picasa is in this list tells you how meaningless that list is.

From my understanding, Spaces doesn't require any kind of membership anywhere. No accounts. This could become a big deal if true and possibly rival Twitter for when you suddenly ha…

Show us what you think is a nice DSL then, because you keep waving your hands about DSL but you're not showing a single line of code to prove your point.

These are functions, it doesn't get any simpler than that and it doesn't require learning anything new once you know the language. Macros are over engineered in comparison since th…

> I'm not against GMO, but one thing that I think is a fallacy is the choice between GMO and heavily-pesticided products. You're right, I made a false dichotomy there, sorry about …

> You cannot implement simple, modular, debuggable, composable DSLs with functions alone. We've been doing this for at least ten years. Example: [1] For someone who's convinced tha…
