    Lol this is all pretty funny. I also did this but in C++ to make fun of that JS crap. https://gist.github.com/zelcon5/7dc42bf91ea958132a0d - "padding" can go either left or right. …

    Maybe this will bring back the CLI when average users start asking for a keyboard equivalent of this. It's funny how there have been numerous iterations of Siri for at least a deca…

    As the landlord of a small building in a poor neighborhood, I cannot tell you how true this copypasta is. It really has calloused my sympathy for the poor. Poor people are poor bec…

    If someone wants to charge me for reading their _blog_, forget about it. I'll read the next person's blog who understands that my reading of their post IS the payment.

    Time is relevant. It should not be treated like a footnote in considering the importance of certain laws. If Thomas Jefferson were alive today, I think he would have used military …

    Am I the only one who sees how blind it is to continue citing 18th century politicians in 2016? Can we finally deprecate the "founding fathers"?

    I've bought crappy but running cars before for $200 (outright, no loan). If I were you, I would spend all day today on craigslist for a little junk car that you can sleep in. Shopl…

    How is this _not_ exactly what I said it was though? The author even says in the readme that it's a NIH version of Haskell. I love PL mental masturbation as much as anyone else, bu…

    Despite the temptation to bikeshed Amazon, I'd have to say this is quite justified. Amazon seemed TOO cheap for a lot of things. It was amazing they made any money at all. Now that…
