What is this guy's issue with Syntastic? If he's saying it's not for beginning Vim users, OK, fine. But "harmful plugin"? Like it's some sort of malware? Very poor form.

I think patch versus pull request is a valid complaint, but there's absolutely no reason to be snarky about it. Everything else just reeks of MS bashing that reinforces the negative view of the open source crowd that many on the MS side of

There's plenty of use of the color black, rectangular shapes, rounded corners, and centered screens in the "before iPad" group.

NearlyFreeSpeech is wonderful. I drive people to them whenever I can. Along with being trustworthy and protective of their customers, their web panel is simple and no BS. I don't know how people put up with other registrars with their upsel

Don't get caught up on GitHub specifically. GitHub is just the most popular example of how projects don't need Apache to host them anymore, yet Apache still expects to do so, and worse, expects to assert a lot of restriction over it. The po

I don't like having my Vundle stuff cluttering up my .vimrc either. Which is why I have all of that extracted to a separate file, which .vimrc sources. I do this for a lot of things, allowing .vimrc to be purely about vim settings (and then

Those big desktop replacement sort of laptops aren't what I think of when I think of "Thinkpad". But you're right, those big W-series machines maintain the Thinkpad build quality.

This. For me, the comparison is never between a $1000 Apple laptop and a $400 Gateway one. The comparison is between a $1000 Apple laptop and an $800-$1000 Lenovo T-series or X-series Thinkpad (or, as I call them, the "real" Thinkpads). F

I am mourning the death of the non-respawn multiplayer shooter. Counterstrike, as another commenter pointed out, is still the third most popular game on Steam. And yet, every major FPS franchise has moved further and further away from that

This is one of those things that's a novel idea when one person does it (particularly when that person still has a support staff available to field emails), but would be incredibly obnoxious if it were a common practice.

Interesting idea, but I highly dislike it. The entire point of email is that it is the "leave a message and I'll get back to you" mode of communication for the Internet. It is not the "respond right now" mode - that is what IM and chat room

It seems to me, though, that there's room for all the people interested in developing a "for everyone" UI to rally around a single project. The people interested in making Unity/Gnome 3/etc aren't the people interested in making ratpoison.

There's no real comparison between CoffeeScript->JavaScript and Ruby->C. Ruby doesn't have any necessary relation to C. Case in point: JRuby. The underlying language is just an implementation detail to provide an environment for exe

My perspective may be skewed from not being an old-timer, but Vim seems like it's never been more alive. So much of what I rely on in my Vim customizations is pretty new, and so many of those plugins are new themselves. The core of Vim is t
