    If by some chance they decide to add more later, can find them with: for (var a in ww.mode.modes) { var b = ww.mode.modes[a].pattern; var c = b != null ? b.toString(2) : ''; consol…

    But maybe it's better in terms of posture for your body, over all? You may burn the same number of calories, but you're up straight, and your joints and muscles are doing something…

    Eclipse+CDT provides some of the same features as well. Very useful :) http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/

    C is (more specifically) a 3rd generation language, and when I was going through high school I remember it always being on the list of high level languages. It's more recently now …

    You have to delete your content, and then delete your account, BEFORE the policy comes into affect. With the way things are worded apparently, if done afterwards, they can still ke…

    My thoughts exactly when hearing of the news, but I doubt it'd actually happen :( They'd probably have to get rights from Zahns publisher or Dark Horse or whomever owns it, I'd thi…

    Related to bookmarks... I no longer use Firefox and have long since switched to Chrome, but in doing so my bookmarks have become effectively useless. What I mean by this is, in Fir…

    Sorry, but what's CLR?

    I personally love using the ISO format as well. As for the iPhone vs Android thing, the graph used by OP is a bit misleading (it's restricted to AUS only). I'd take a look at these…

    Very cool to see that this awesome game was this first foray into programming for others, as it was for me :)

    Why not just make it a wiki instead? Most wiki's have version control, but also offer a lot more formatting options and the like. Plus better linking, easier to edit (imo), less up…

    I always loved the amount of power in java IDEs (Eclipse, for me) for refactoring code...made things so much easier.

    There's no point in continuing to run A/B testing indefinitely once a winner has been chosen, and like-wise there is no point in running this indefinitely either. Sure the OP advoc…

    Would have been interesting to see if the quotes made an impact or not, as well. I can't see it making that much of a difference...

    That's glorious :o I've only recently begun messing around with SVGs, but it seems the more I use them, the more amazing they become. That said, I really do wish there was better b…

    Pretty horrible list IMO... 1) Try a different theme, it may help if it really affects you that much. But this is the only one I somewhat agree with as being possibly an issue; but…

    Because Apple is the "Gatekeeper" of all software on the platform. They have full control over what goes in the app store, and what doesn't. No longer will you be able to go to a w…
