Makes sense for reporters to play it safe I think, as what the car did is a clearly observable fact. Wording it like "The driver drove his car into the sidewalk" portraits the sense the driver deliberately performed the action. Wh

The change in the print statement was also what put me off from Python 3 for a long while. But back then there where also no big benefits to be had from moving to 3. Nowadays I even prefer the print function as it makes it easer to convert

Depends on the default Zsh configuration file they provide. When I used Zsh in the past with just the default config I found some Bash 'features' missing. Stuff like reverse-i-search (ctrl-r) and tab-completion. Most of them are s

For those people it's not just about functionality, but purely the looks. They know a different monitor will work just fine. For them having a different brand monitor on the desk next to a apple screen/device would be like tiling

I got a few mikrotiks at home and friends/family. They are quite nice as they offer about every networking option the Linux kernel has to offer. However they don't expose the Linux userland so they are not as hackable as openwrt.
