Just tried it again. Still can't live with it at night, makes me feel like I am going blind with the shift to red. Might try it 1 more time with a gradual shift and see if that works but right now, certainly not useable for me.

Depends what you mean by "killed" but your submission won't be accepted if there is already a duplicate one with the same url.

Surely F.lux is fairly pointless unless the only source of light in your room is your computer monitor? I would imagine that any windows or external lighting is going to have a far greater effect than F.lux. I tried F.lux a while ago when i

I took the "malicious" as being "severe" so didn't really find the wording redundant.

I found South Africa to have a far easier banking system. When I first moved to the UK, I found their banking system very antiquated compared to what I was used to. That was some time ago, so things are likely better in the UK since then. H

Not sure how you can get much of value from an A/B test with multiple changes, especially if one is claiming that only 1 of those changes is what is responsible for all the improvement.

Which is why so many top developers recommend that you learn a new language regularly. It exposes you to new thinking and methods. As a result, you grow as a developer. Kudos to you for doing this.

Very polished site from the little I saw of it - and there lies the rub - I saw so little of it. Why don't you allow browsing without registration? I am sure you will miss out on a lot of traffic and future sign-ups because the initial expe

The industry is doing the vast majority of its HFT development in C++ or Java. Data analysis is mostly done using Python although I still see a lot of R. If you are doing this to break into the industry, I suspect the languages you used sho

I did not find this at all intuitive. Possibly because I have never worked with Scratch before. No idea what I was supposed to be doing and no obvious forms of help.

Considering that the highest version of IE that Windows XP can support is IE 8 and the large number of XP machines still out there - it will be fairly silly to not support IE 8 for at least a couple more years.

You are mistaken. There IS a version of "forte" that is correctly pronounced "fortay" and that is the musical term for loud, which is Italian. The correct pronunciation of "forte" as in an area of strength or speciality is "fort". Older dic

The word "forte" has undergone this change. The actual correct pronunciation of it is "fort" as in a sturdy structure used for defence. I have only ever heard it pronounced correctly twice, people typically say it as "fortay" . This ha

Basically, yes, but with a prompt. Notepad++ will prompt you that a loaded file has changed and do you want to update it. ST2 will just load the file as soon as it realizes the file has changed. The NP++ behaviour is ideal and a feature I u

I suspect there is far more of a flavour of elitism in ones use of a text editor than any true benefit in real world productivity. I tried ST2 to see what all the fuss was about. I still use it occasionally (mainly for its layout view on th

The fact that someone can in all seriousness talk about the "hype" of personal life as "grasping at straws to mask their own insecurities" is a very sad indication of some aspects of modern life. What could be more important than a happy fa

Until the time comes, as it almost certainly will, when your bitcoin crashes in dollar value and the "value" you were trying to transfer, becomes severely depleted. Bitcoins have real issues and you ignore them or reject them at your peril.

As an outsider, it appears to me that almost the entire US legal and political system is driven by, and for the benefit of, corporate and big business interests. The only other major factor at work seems to be fear - witness the ever increa

Since asm.js is also flavour of the month and not a million miles away from Rust and Dart in terms of target application, would be great to see this added.

I don't see this as shady. Suing and defending being sued is expensive enough to worry even medium sized companies. Exploring other options first seems like good business practice to me.
