While it's fine for Afghanistan it was designed for a cold-war tank battle. If you don't need to kill tanks or dodge air defences a propeller-powered plane that looks like something out of WW2 is a lot cheaper... and that's w

For a novice coder I couldn't recommend Head First Design Patterns enough - the gang of four design patterns are a bit controversial these days but the way it steps you through and makes you think twice about how to organise things was

Me neither! I can still remember the layout of that level where you only have two lemmings and you have to save both of them but need to use at least one as a blocker. I could never figure it out and didn't have the internet to look it

It's an interesting contrast to OSX, which most people I know use by keeping a stack of odd-sized windows on screen such that at least a bit of each is always visible.

Sounds a lot like the X series, you should look into it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_%28game_series%29

Isn't that how Steam streaming is supposed to work out of the box?

With XP this was valid, but from Windows 7 onwards you don't need to do it anymore unless you actually want to play a game - the majority of users would never need to at all.

It's a bit like that if Michael Dell was one of the original Microsoft founders and fell out with Bill Gates et al.

They do mention density in terms of kw / sqm as being slightly higher than conventional turbines, but don't give a lot of details beyond that. I can only hope it's not based on parking them all right next to each other and ho

I imagine a lot of things look not all that hard when you're trying to build a rocket that can go to space, come back down and neatly land itself on a helipad...

Is anyone else finding that the Github importer just stalls at 0%? I don't really want to have to redo the whole wiki manually :(.

I'm certainly blaming Yahoo. Paying browser hijackers isn't exactly the hallmark of a resurgent and reputable internet company.

Haha, it was only a matter of time (measured in weeks) until React was over. The new hotness is evidently manually setting innerHTML.

Yeah I imagine there's quite a few that'll feel that way, but at least given that using JSX requires a transform anyway it doesn't make a build _that_ much more complex than it already is.

I have a 2012 XPS 13. After a year there was only one working USB port remaining and the DVD drive was broken. I have no idea why people are gushing over Dell, every one I've had has been cheap rubbish.

Unfortunately a very small proportion of potential customers are going to hear or care about this... it's about as toxic to their business as stepping in some stinging nettles is toxic to me.

The problem with this blog post is that it's long been used to justify writing crappy code, when it's actually about writing simple code, and those aren't necessarily the same thing. If your duct-tape go kart falls apart goin

My initial reaction was "oh is that all". I mean don't get me wrong, the way the site works is nice, but I was really expecting it to move the code around such that the whitespace formed a picture, or have all the lines of co

Well, if you weren't watching the talk in person you're going to have to wait for them to release React native in earnest. Fortunately the talk is only 30 minutes so you've got another 30 minutes to do something else?

Exactly - when I read that sentence I wasn't sure the author even knew what isomorphic javascript was. Pulling business logic into the front-end is admittedly a bad habit that isomorphic javascript encourages, but it's certainly n

That's interesting - so the named parameter for required data in routes.jsx is something you're planning to add? (I can't see it, just has the standard name/route/handler at the moment) I've been trying to do t
