Nicer UI, sliders for values etc. It's a lot faster for experimentation, I certainly appreciate it.

Pretty cool, although I still don't understand how margin-top: 50%; moves the thing so far down ;) Damn you CSS!

We get it, you don't like the cloud. And guess what, all your little reasons are perfectly reasonable. But those are consumer reasons and nobody who matters cares. The cloud destroys piracy. This is the sole reason it will be the future of

That is such a stereotype. If you are genuinely nice and intelligent, I can assure you that men would be very eager to battle their wits against yours. Most women just don't hold up to their own claims and they see such "attacks" as persona

I don't know functional programming but I agree with your sentiment. I even think this is the reason why languages like C++ and Java are abused so much. Over the years of use, people start learning little tricks and hacks, and they want to

Interesting idea! There is no indication of what "My Documents" contains. What do I put in there? What is a "document" anyway? I'm frequently annoyed by files being saved somewhere I don't remember, or into huge folder hierarchies where I t

Never more quickly have I realized that there is no point in discussion. There are too many things I'd need to explain to make this anywhere near worthwhile. I'll just point out a few things and then I'll be on my way. This is nowhere near

You come up with only a single, high level reason for what could have thousands of reasons, and you seriously come up with one that is a detriment to our entire species. Draw from that conclusions on your capacity and will for logical think

I love Tup, it basically replaced Make for me. It tracks dependencies and files, automatically cleaning and updating everything even more precisely than Make, making it a lot faster and easier to use. https://github.com/gittup/tup (yes, y

That depends on how you define 'communicating'. It's all essentially about definitions and opinions. This is probably a tad too cynical, but to me it seems most every discussion boils down to these two things. We'd really need a better fram

Yes, although I think procrastination (just like any psychological problem) is very complex, and I fear that we waste too much time trying to analyze these, therefore making the saying "just do it" or "suck it up" an appropiate response, wh

What I would really appreciate, is a graphical designer similar to the WPF designer, just for CSS. Muse is far from that, as far as I can tell, there isn't even a way to provide percentage values for boxes.

If the application fails, wouldn't it just shut down and the process ends? Meaning that I can't call strace anymore? Do you have suggestions for that usecase? How would I know what the process id is going to be before I start the program?

Joel doesn't say anything either. It's like climbing a ladder and neither end leads to anything. I could just aswell go one step lower or higher, and nothing would be gained. Lower = Internet startups just draw pixels on each others screens

Austria will default? That seems very funny to me, but maybe you know more than me. I'm actually really laughing, what makes you think Austria is in any danger? I think you are being paranoid.

I think my experience exemplifies this: I bought a WP7 two days ago. WP7 phones are very cheap now. Sure, there are cheap Android phones too, but those run very old versions of Android that I can't upgrade. That doesn't exactly sound like '

Exactly. Gnome3 tries to reduce the time you spend searching for icons+windows and/or sorting them. That's the most time consuming task for a desktop user. It makes total sense to improve on that. I'm also faster at finding an icon when I

See, again you are using a definition of real that suits you. This doesn't mean it's correct or even that it makes sense. What your argument boils down to is: "Thoughts are not real". Is that a really a stand that you want to take? edit: Ma
