IMO Python imports behave like the bash source command. This is why people use the `if __name__ == "__main__"` so the majority of people will address it in all their scripts even i…

In my unqualified opinion the usability of e.g. phpBB forums (discussing through the browser) was much better than calling up a local BBS on telnet. Multilevel prompt menus in teln…

While I appreciate the sentiment, I feel you're missing the point. This is akin to maddox's writing. It aims to strike a nice balance between satire and self-immolation, but might …

People who shout about ancient aliens and hidden technology always completely ignore that the people in the past had access to the most advanced machinery available: humans. Add ti…

As a self-taught coder, I've experienced many times how highly skilled software engineers groan and sweat when they encounter shell scripts. I don't understand why, but it seems li…
