    Not trying to be pessimistic here, but I feel like the author is being a bit loaded with the marketing text. There's many pieces of TUI software that do this exact same thing with …

    I am a die-hard advocate of the Phalcon approach to this problem, which is to deliver the framework as a PHP extension. It requires slightly more admin experience to get it setup, …

    It would have been more honest to add (in Rust) to the title.

    I share some similar sentiments with the author and I developed a personal note-taking system which has automatic linking based on the collocational word. You can think of it as so…

    > what is more boring than Rails? modern PHP? I would contend the OP is still a hipster, but at least he's pointing out that fashionable programming is really toxic for the industr…

    In the world of real advancements in terminal development, Plan 9 had come up with Blit and drawterm in the 90's -- so why haven't we made it back to there yet? the answer mostly l…

    You're right, they both worked on ZMQ together, however Sustrik disagreed with some of the design decisions and decided to make nanomsg. Hintjens and co have worked on code generat…

    Okay, it's provable... what value do really get out of it? isn't the whole reason why we still use C because it gets so close to resolving (or at least acknowledging) hardware or p…
