It's not entirely irrational though... looking at two identically-specced products I would choose the one with a higher build quality, which is often more expensive. So there is so…

That's great, and I love that Huawei can bring such specs at quite a low price point. But specs aren't everything. How is the UI responsiveness? Does the phone itself feel sturdy? …

Foul depths of hell? I've never programmed in C or C++, but this seems to me to be a map from strings to vectors of strings. Reads easily. I don't like the :: namespace separator, …

We have something similar several places in Norway too, which are triggered by what seems to be motion sensors. Since the actual crosswalk can easily be covered in snow/ice during …

No. I'll hold my judgement until I see the new TOS, but what they propose in this blog post is much more reasonable. If the new TOS reflect that, I see little reason to bitch about…

Well, he does imply that he'll neither leave the Clojure community nor stop blogging, so I'm keeping my hopes up. Besides, whether they are Clojure-related or not, his blog posts a…

Same here (used Firefox, switched to Chrome), but I recently switched back. The only reason: I started using Windows on my desktop PC, and the font rendering in Chrome is horrible …

I disagree. It reads perfectly fine to me, and the terms I was unfamiliar with were defined before usage (the "sidebar" and "verbs" for instance). Although I'm familiar with Clojur…

I'm quickly desensitized by video footage or images from war, acts of terrorism and the like. It might just be me, but I find that reading about the atrocities of war is much more …
