Yes, no doubts. But why does the author think that in this case such process was followed, and was so successful to deserve the "amazing" adjective? How did this specific design ma…

No, I don't find anything amazing in Blade Runner's title sequence, and the article does nothing to convince me. Yes, they got small-caps spacing right: hardly amazing. And what ab…

Technically true. Practically, to make a substantial profit, what you sell must be more worthy than something you can also download for free. So you must sell an enhanced version o…

Absolutely. That's how coding used to work in the 70s. Then software passed from people to companies, which proved alien to the cultural values that had hold so far. At the end of …

I'm confused. You begin your post with a stance that's typical of copyleft proponents, then you end it in the opposite direction. There is a trait in human nature that pushes us to…

> 16-bit Commodore Amiga era The Motorola 68000 was a 32-bit processor. What Commodore Amiga was 16 bits?

Does anybody know why the site is called 16-bits? Aren't trackers an expression of the first 32-bit computers?

I thought "makers" all used Python. What's the friction that EYG is supposed to remove?

LOL, and an internet connection, too! But, seriously, of course "web" requires internet and a computer and an operating system. But since when "web" also means Node.js? If a web co…

Do you mean I don't need Node.js on the machine where I run it?

How can it be defined dependency free if it depends on Node.js?

Good article! I just wouldn't start off with bold sentences as > SIMD can be simple to understand and > writing SIMD is just about as easy as a for loop and then the first example …

> if you’re careless about one thing like that you’re probably careless about other things I'm not convinced. This rule holds only if the two "things" are related. But one can have…

Good idea but strange syntax. It would be more idiomatic if the command came first and the list of globs last. Additionally the use of "--" is not what everybody expects: here it i…

But why? What's wrong with a tidy notebook?

> I don't get why I'm downvoted Because your comment was addressing the author instead of the article itself. Tell-tale words are "you" and "people". It would have been different i…

If you are allergic to AI-generated articles, I can't stand syntactic mistakes. The day you get your "AI generated" flag, I'll want my "lousy with mistakes", too.

Thank you. I imagined that the 3 words were just a rendez-vous token that the receiving end must hand to the relay to retrieve the right data. I understand that it also includes a …

How can one be sure that the relay does not record all the data flowing through it? There's not a second independent channel where the key is exchanged between sender and receiver.…

I'm glad someone else asked. :) It's not so widely used and it's not explained in the first couple screenfuls of TFA (which by itself is weirdly structured, taking entire paragraph…

I don't get it. If the ring structure has 4 field (excluding the cold ones), and all 4 have alignment constraints, doesn't it define 4 zones in 4 cache lines, and not 2? I expected…

Put the "--" in the condition. It's less ugly.

Timer should be like in chess tournaments: an initial budget of X, increase by Y for each word you guess.
