   Sorry, but this argument is just so damn stupid. It's on the level of, "we don't have passwords for accounts, because people could bruteforce them anyways"... They are basically arguing that while SSL might cover 9/

   The "Kiked" should probably be read as "Kik'ed" and in any regards, "Kikked" would be wrong. Kik is an entity and not a word in itself here. Try replacing it with "IBM'ed", "Microsoft&#

   As a non-native speaker this sentence actually got me a bit unsure (perhaps because I looked too much at it): "Buy one, get the second half off." Is that meant as the second unit you buy, you get half off? Don't know if this

   You can somewhat switch Haskell to being strict-by-default with the new Strict/StrictData pragma[0], which should be in GHC 8.0. There's also a great write-up of it here [1]. As someone else mentioned, Backpack is trying to "

   I really don't see how you can't live for $4160 - $1200 = $2960 a month? Heck, I could live on $500/month easily (after rent and taxes), if I wanted (as far as I'm aware, living costs are a lot cheaper in the US than wer

   I feel like Airmail is the best email client on OS X atm. Mail.app still feels off for me, and Mailbox was shut down recently (was a avid user of that before, although their desktop app severely lacked). Airmail also supports gmail labels,

    If you use OS X, go into System Preferences -> Notifications -> Slack and set slack alert style to "None". There, you now have sound and no banner-style alerts. You can customise a lot more and all apps that are able to do n

    With the recent discussion of FastMail shutting down their XMPP chat server[0], I thought it'd be interesting to share the history of chat services that sameroom.io just sent out in an email. Doing a ctrl-f/cmd-f for "XMPP&qu

    I can very much recommend this! Recently discovered it, and started gathering all my chats into Slack (you can of course do it in others). Especially getting Freenode and other IRC servers at the tip of my fingers in just one client, is a h

    Because working with things like GTK and QT is horrible compared to working with HTML/JS/CSS, for anything other than trivial things. That said, it'd be cool to have native code generation from this though.

    I actually think that comes more from the fact that a lot of people post pretending to be a women to either get attention or to trick people into going along with whatever ploy they have going. EDIT: I'm commenting on the quotes spec

    Everyone gets called out on everything that might be wrong on 4chan (mostly /b/). Even a perfectly normal being will be called out on whatever, simply because they can. "Tits or GTFO" is used because it has a lot hig

    Because it has never caused any trouble having it in /usr/local, and as another user said /usr/local/bin is part of the standard path. Other than this one-liner, which is done once, there really isn't any extra
