Consider yourself lucky! We had some boring and entirely too basic OOP-y course (with Java, of course). I'm reading SICP now (this beautiful PDF version: https://github.com/sarabander/sicp-pdf/blob/master

I'm usually pretty anti-ORM and actually like low-level SQL interfaces (I guess because I did a short stint as an Oracle developer once, once you see what can be done with some custom SQL...). But for a recent sideproject of mine, I re

Instead of that git command, I just default to running "tig": http://blogs.atlassian.com/2013/05/git-tig/ available everywhere it counts (arch, debian, homebrew)

Even though I barely touch windows these days, when I do, I invariably use "everything" ( http://www.voidtools.com/ ) to find where everything is. So fast, so minimalistic. It's like locate on crack (because it

Don't really have a use for this but kudos! When I jumped into my current project, I made a point of going with nginx 1.4+, for the websocket support, which really simplifies the stack. It just feels good to have less moving parts.

I think an easy visual upgrade to get rid of the jaggies would be to (optionally) turn on MSAA (multi sample anti-aliasing). It doesn't drop the lo-fi look IMHO but still looks ways better. MSAA is real easy to enable, create your wind

I already had done so, but it makes me feel even better about dropping node for go. Not just because of the increased sanity go brings to my codebase (no more callback hell, which frankly was a mess even with node addon libraries). Now I ca

I think it's a bit ironical that you seem to be acting "butthurt", threatening with internet mobs and such (and the gloomy prospects of someone losing their job if they don't bow down to your pressure).

I routinely read "she" in documentation to refer to the developer/user. I notice it the first time it appears in a text and then I don't anymore, it doesn't bother me in the least.

according to antirez, redis does not (and will not) support LuaJIT. Even though at one point there was someone who had got it working. From experience I know that replacing Lua with LuaJIT, even in a statically compiled project, is quite ea

I agree that the full end-to-end encryption is an awesome feature, though it is very recent. And I didn't even know about the TIPC support.

You might be interested in nanomsg ( http://nanomsg.org/ ), the spiritual successor/spinoff of zeromq, by the original creator (the parent you replied to, Martin Sustrik). It features a BUS pattern too.

That's exactly what I thought when I read the title! I'm right now in the process of reading Journey to the Center of the Earth and this struck me. Jules Verne really was quite the visionary...

Exactly! For anything were I have to deploy, I currently use FPM which you mentioned together with freight ( https://github.com/rcrowley/freight ) to generate a debian apt repository. Just serve the resulting folder with

Though I agree that in most cases package managers fulfill this need perfectly well, there are cases in which homebrew does provide something unique. Which is the reason that I contributed a tiny bit to linuxbrew (reporting bugs and suggest

In something I'm building, we have to play all kinds of clips. Some of the more "legacy" ones are unfortunately in flash. We can't get rid of them for the next few years and nobody is going to redo them in something else

Not when most of that 16GB is in use. At the moment, chrome is using up 3.4GB. Yea, I have a lot of tabs open. Yes, I should work on that. Yes, I'd also like being able to open that many tabs and have my browser perhaps release some of

I'd also like to put in a request for either open-sourcing or a more detailed overview of the implementations, they sound really interesting.

Yea, I also noticed that, save for the pages with tons of images, firefox has actually been better than chrome in that respect for the last few releases. Now with this fix, I'm seriously thinking of jumping back. Then I'll finally

Not quite sure myself, but I've been tracking the development of mpv, a fork of both mplayer2 and mplayer, and its development is going fast, very fast. For example, intel VA-API support was ported and integrated into master in about a

In my opinion, ansible only beats puppet here in ease of initial setup. I even find the equivalent puppet script for this task to be a tad bit clearer. But we're talking just syntax now. I only see now just how similar puppet and ansib

I personally like the fact that the codebase (up until a few months ago at least, when I last looked) is very clean and very understandable. This probably has to do with both the transition from C++ to C, and the fact that Martin (the autho

Use SDL2, much better and official support for mobile platforms. The only platforms that were killed in SDL2 are old ones like MacOS9 etc.

Exactly the same thing for me! I was thinking: "man, I should write something about this" for a long time and never committed to it because I had the lame excuse that I did not have a personal site. So last week I finally caved, I
