Haha, you've gotta love these armchair Linux critics man.

> something substantial Not really. More like $4-500. For a price of a "next gen" console you can build a PC that can run modern games at 1080p. Granted, not the highest settings but even that is achievable for less than $1000.

> high-end Macs play games just as well as high-end Windows boxes Are you joking? Because even $2000 iMacs come with mobile GPUs. Not to mention CPUs that cannot be overclocked etc. That's comparable to a high-end gaming laptop , n

Another thing that is not mentioned, is that Steam on OS X is kinda bad. Tends to freeze often etc. In the case of Linux, Valve has the incentive to ship a better version because they'd be running that version on their Steamboxes as we

Because it's a laptop? It's just an inferior experience, especially since the hardware isn't what you'd call beefy.

Looks cool but I couldn't bother spending more than 30 seconds on that page. Do you seriously expect your users to scroll for 2 minutes to present information that could be put into a slideshow/GIF/video?

I feel the same way, sometimes I upvote controversial articles because I'm interested in the discussion it sparks.

You're right, we need more posts about Bitcoin and Something.js.

Bare in mind that the Titan is not the fastest GPU, the 290x and the 780ti are. And they're decent at 4K: http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/11/11/geforce_gtx_780_ti...

That may be it; in the last couple of weeks there's regularly been some useless Bitcoin related speculation/incorrect statistic etc. on the frontpage. Or the constant announcements how much one is worth.

How is this useless blogspam getting upvoted to the front page?

It was, and it looks/behaves almost like Ruby as well. It also shares Ruby's/Perl's TMTOWTDI, sort of the antithesis of Python. Not to mention the name is a homophone.

Our company inherited a Grails project, and I had to help the developer out occasionally. Frankly, Grails seems horrible, especially since it mixes the nice language that is Groovy with just craptastic JVM stuff. Is there any other mature f

Actually, a $4-500 PC can outperform/match these "next gen" consoles today. With parts bought from a store, so assuming Valve can get the parts cheaper, they can assemble a better performing machine for less than $400. Here&#

Still seems like throwing the baby out with the bathwater to me. Especially since its from Google; as it is, it looks like the second coming of ActiveX to me.

I really fail to see the point of Dart, especially since awesome client side frameworks like Angular already exist. Why doesn't Google throw more resources at them instead of creating something from scratch that has a very high possibi

I'm really impressed as well, especially how helpful and outreaching the developers/contributors are on sites like StackOverflow. Now if the documentation would improve in some of the grayer areas, I would be really happy. Wish I

Wanted to recommend this as well. Really interesting documentary, it features (among others) David Simon, creator of The Wire. Here's a quick review from the Guardian to get you a taste: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r

When I first started using Angular I actually bought a video course on it from Pluralsight. So when I started my first Angular project I hit the ground running. There are also a lot of free videos on Youtube, that sometimes explain things m

You're missing the point. <?php if($condition){ ?> and just an <?php } ?> gets illegible and confusing very fast, even from 20 lines of HTML in between. And that isn't even that much. endif, endfor, end

Was just going to say, a large percentage of online shopping is based on open source e-commerce solutions, most of which are written in PHP. Which shares (and possibly overshadows) Javascript's problems.
