It might be more useful to talk to the people behind the tooling that is used during concerts. For instance, Notch grew out of the demo scene and could be interesting maybe? See ht…

I only recently discovered Densha De GO! and apparently the most recent game in the series is based around this very line. Very interesting to see these photos, I love the vibe, an…

That's a shame, but there's heavy competition from companies like PCBWay, I suppose. Incidentally, I read it the title like Shapeways provided some files to somehow 3d print bankru…

It's great to see Java Web Start finally being used in anger 24 years after its initial release.

"Should all array types be Copy but not Claim? If not, where is the cutoff, and does it depend on the element type?" I think it was mentioned that something should be considered Cl…
