    The members of the pedophile club are way richer, more influential and have a vastly greater quality of life than you.

    Same problem with JavaScript's NPM. And Python's PIP.

    I think the FBI/CIA/NSA could afford 8000 nodes if they wanted to.

    I think this is a common practice in every country. If the tax payer is at fault, the tax payer pays. If the treasury is at fault, the tax payer still pays.

    Hoping that journalists pick up on cases like these and spread the word wide enough is... optimistic, to say the least. A much better solution is to build incentives into the legal…

    Are you saying this new plastic will also clog up our oceans?

    It is too bad it is up to the founders themselves to offer liquidity to employees. Founders are financially incentivized to not offer anything, so you're counting on their sense of…

    Have we come full circle? Docker was made to create a stable environment for an executable to be run in. Now we're making executables out of the stable environment... should we run…

    Wouldn't be surprised if Unity is developing their own multimedia engine they want to sell. Shitty practices like this is what makes me want to get into politics.

    I looked for any mention of hosting your own server on the repo's readme and could not find it. This is not readily available information so stop shaming people for not finding it.…

    I'd prefer the other way around. If the language was verbose but its tools (IDEs, analyzer extension) hid redundant info from you.

    I might not be against that... Assigning variables or calling methods (when you discard the return value) would look the same as is typical in many languages: int x = foo(); // foo…

    I can't remember which language, but there is one where every number is a double and there is no int type. Is Onyx like that? I don't know. It would take me maybe two minutes to lo…

    Would you be willing to use a language that looked verbose in the text files, but you had an IDE that hid the verbose parts from you? Take your Java example. If the code in the .ja…

    Differently Morphous by Yahtzee Croshaw. It's cute detective novel set in a fantasy version of modern-day London. It includes a ministry of magic (legally distinct from Harry Potte…

    I guess even ~500 year old books can be wrong :-) I'm just joking. This is just a pet peeve of mine. Thank you for the fun lesson in etymology.

    I'm unreasonably annoyed you used etcetera instead of et cetera . 'Et' is Latin for 'and'. The term means "and other things", not "andotherthings". No, I have nothing important to …

    Why? Safety Critical Software engineers are expensive. If you write a webstack with Node.js and React to run the insulin pump you can hire web developers. They are much cheaper. An…
