This teenager will be singehandeldy (maybe with help from voters) responsible for several onsets of midlife crises. Words can be dangerous.

It's a self-destructive move by these media outlets. How much more irrelevant do they want to make themselves?

Is there any chance of him going opensource? It would be nice to be able to get a better ui which clearly he has no interest in coding himself.

It's a nice intro to assembly but there's no link to perl. The talk could be titled assembly for ruby programmers.

It's a fun game but please, at some point you have to release and stop pretending it's alpha to avoid any responsibility. It is now not unusual to buy an "alpha" release of a game, play for a few years, shelve it and mov

"If you like games and you’re a programmer, go work for a firm that will pay. You will earn enough to buy all the games you want." This and similar advice have been repeated through the decades and have stopped no one. I heard tha

Demo does nothing for me. I'm dubious how repeatable or unique those results are.

When you move you change acquaintances, you don't lose friends unless you already wanted to lose touch with them. I know it sounds like a no true Scotsman but with cheap airlines, skype, online gaming etc. it's pretty easy to keep

Linkedin is a necessary evil. HR uses it to check out my references and that's about it. I visit it only when I need to find a job - to update the details on my last job. It's OK, just don't give them your phone number or (re

Editing photos has been rampant for decades, well before photoshop even existed. We pretend photographers don't do it in the same way we pretend sportsmen don't dope.

This story has been picked up several times by mainstream sites. How is it that this is a news story but no mainstream pieces are ever written about pixel artists for example.

I know this is hardly new and there are easier ways to emulate but it just blows my mind how EASY the access is now. I saw some lotus 3 pixel art online that reminded me of my childhood and inside 10 seconds (literally) I manage to type in

The boy scout rule does not apply to programming. Please don't do this. Found a bug? Fix it and add a test for it. Don't "tidy up" what you consider a "mess".

That video is not representative of anything - it's played in an emulator with some weird scaling going on (maybe hq2x). And the prettiest ultima iv was of course on the fm towns: http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/u5l
