    I'm surprised nobody said a word about stumpwm yet ( http://stumpwm.org ). It's a lisp window manager built with the mentality of rat poison. The great thing about it is how it int…

    Why is there a link to python's documentation on HN frontpage? I mean, it's not like it's a new release or, wait for it, was anything new . Here are some others: - Python/C API Ref…

    Actually, it's very well explained in one of the "Effective C++" series. IIRC, when calling a function, the compiler first looks at the name and only then will try to match the par…

    It's cute but too much distracting IMO. I prefer to have it fade a little bit on focus and disappear on writing.

    What scare me the most about Clojure is collaborate with other devs. I.e. In 2 years, who will maintain the project.

    "Do the math on what it'd take to email 3,000 rejected applicants." Imagine reading 3,000 applicants!

    I haven't applied this year but I really hate that rejection email. I hope one day YC could man up and tell why it was refused rather then giving a "You don't need to get in to cre…

    I agree. I had no idea it was custom made by a graphic designer.. that would explain a lot more the 100$ cost and the fact that there's no demo.

    Few questions: 1. How did you manage to get all these awesome resume templates?! That's fairly impressive for a one month project.. I could have had only one of them and I would be…

    I know I'll probably get down-voted but.. isn't it unfair to take a new job and get away for 6 months for parenting purpose? And what about being lesbian.. why would a company not …

    I'm an avid reader but was disappointed with the dragon book. I felt like once finished, I still couldn't write a simple interpreter! I guess it's a good reference.. or maybe a sec…

    After standing on the landing page, I really wasn't sure about what it was about. I decided to signup to try it out but there was clearly too much fields. I'm an asshole, I know. I…

    I downvoted you mostly because I wasn't sure why you were talking about making Python exercises into a Javascript emulator/learner tool when the thread is about Perl.. but then, I …

    Wow, I just got nerd chills while listening to that video, great idea and awesome execution. Where it will shine is when you'll be able to follow a 5min tutorial and create a "Quak…

    Interesting article. I like the provocative asshole.. with a nice conclusion at the end specifying that people are just busy and not being direct is just non-respectful to your aud…

    Look, there is nothing wrong with classes and OO in general. What is wrong is using OO when it is unnecessary and only adds layers of complexity.

    I find this to be over kill but I see the point.. as if you're always trying to make "good" commits you kind of lose the "get all the shit done" mentality as you have to separate e…

    Well, the thing is that it complained about only one particular file which I didn't care and knew it was safe to --force on it. So, basically, you type: foo -abc And it tells you, …

    Comment #3705164

    Yeah, well the thing is I never had to use it before. But a package required it, so with a quick google-fu it said to include --force. What wasn't clear is that you had to do a --f…

    I love Arch. Best distribution by far in my opinion. Sadly, I had huge problems one week ago when I did a full system upgrade (took me 2 days to fix everything that was corrupted a…

    What you might not get is that people used to be as lazy but without the framework. So, you'd get really ugly websites without any good design touch. Bootstrap gives these people a…
