    Tower: have used for four years, and it's EXCELLENT. I use the CLI, tig and Tower.

    This post is the stupid thing. There's plenty of other reasons people fork repos, such as being able to have a safe copy of the code in case the original is removed (happens all th…

    Amazing, but I'm now terrified that there's a tiny group of guys who can hear frequencies nobody else can, and we will really have "golden ears" hi-fi-audiophile buffs.

    A+++ as described, arrived promptly, made Spotify sound better than my Linn Sondek LP12 with Troika cartridge and PWB modifications. Would buy again.

    You still can't deny that the mechanics of the site are somewhat broken - I have answered questions, had the answers upvoted, only to see the question edited by a mod and changing …

    Nice work. I did something similar many years ago on film, and here's how you could replicate it with digital. a) high ND filters, like a 3.0 and up, to give long exposure times an…

    Ah, Ember, such promise, such expectations. Too little, too late. I spent about 13 months working with it, but it has proved a complete waste of time. In getting other developers u…

    Well done, basically. Massive effort. I've been working with Ember for over a year now and things have come a long way. Out of the many brilliant things in Ember, possibly my favou…

    This looks worse for the loser (of the phone) as s/he's comprehensively shown us that s/he's enjoying being a twat, whereas the user may or may not have actually stolen it. Innocen…

    IMHO, unsharp mask can quickly look aggressive (as in the OPs example, but I expect that is to show the effect). A speedier one-shot solution is to simply use adaptive reduction, w…

    django-rest-framework looks good, been years since I used Django in any seriousness, so will have to give it another run. As an aside, what's the scoop on Python 2.7.X and 3.0 neve…
