    Best unexpected use of the tool. I'm less impressed by the achievement than by the time and energy you used towards it. Well done!

    The problem with DLC is the abuse of manipulative techniques on immature audiences. In other words, micro transactions targeted at kids and teenagers. New content? Fine. Fancy outf…

    A company I have visited had, for some obscure reason, decided that teams should have their own fun/memorable names. Almost 2 years after implementation, every new hire's first com…

    What's so wrong about easy mode? For me, it's hard to make good software today because the bar is actually higher, in the sense that it must be usable by a much wider audience and …

    I don't speak English natively, I am much more used to roaming when referred to telco usage abroad than when referred to its original meaning. I doubt it's just me, but I'll be qui…
