    I nearly choked to death on the irony of mark tarver condemning people who want to make money after extorting shen community to change the license. Academically, he's a player, but…

    Something other than github. Especially self-hosted gitlab or similar.

    I was thinking the same thing. Intel is gonna get its shit pushed in one way or the other on this, and I'm gonna watch it happen with a big smile on my face. Patents will not stop …

    Net neutrality is bad for the market. What people think they want does not supercede decades of economics. Regulating ISPs will do irreparable damage to the web, and it could be a …

    Ah, I see what you're saying. Seems like you've done quite a bit of this type of work, I've the exact opposite. I guess it makes sense that the fewer data points the clients are gi…

    I consider UI mockups the perfect usage for visual programming environments. Obviously a visual product compliments a visual development interface. However, it's a very narrow real…

    Godel, Escher, Bach covers this in great detail. Symbols are a weird idea in the human brain, and there are multiple pseudo languages throughout the book that when you really sit d…

    Honestly, I think most languages have shitty syntaxes (syntaxi?) and that the issue is not about visual programming. The other problem is that everybody who has a big idea for visu…

    That wasn't just an idea. People have used Twitter for exactly this purpose for a long time, because it skews user numbers. I'd also assume that overhead is very low for c&c botnet…

    Avatar was like the highest grossing movie of all time, and it was just Pocahontas with CGI. Just because people use it doesn't mean it's artistically meritous. My opinion isn't su…

    People are still playing Pokemon Go? I stopped within the first few days when I realized you can't actually battle your Pokemon with other people. That's OBVIOUSLY what people want…
