"To their victims, cockroaches commit a personal violation. In the words of George A. Romero, they creep up on you. And there’s nothing you can do to stop them" - My exact reaction to the U2/Apple fiasco. Thanks for the free

Maybe I'm a special case, but I had a 13" MBP Retina and I felt scrolling was jumpy and computer overall could get very slow, while the MBAir I have now is actually much more responsive. I'm not sure, but I think the culprit

I agree - it seems like much better design to tell you the color of the car picking you up :)

"why is python documentation so bad" Really? Did not see that one coming

It can have a few meanings. I think this type of question is common to get a overview of the good things about language X.

Now I really want to know the story behind the name 'monkey patching'

This is a sentiment lost on some people unfortunately.

I've enjoyed Priceonomics blog posts and will probably get the book. Anyone remember when this was a pricing service startup though? Did they pivot to writing?

Right, of course. Been working a lot with the Swift compiler so I was in some state of mind where I associated interpreter/compiler pain with faults and crashes :)

I have always had the feeling that JVM is very stable, but I don't have much Java experience. Is that a wrong assumption?

Straight into Swift, it's the future of iOS development. That being said, you'll spend most of your time studying API's and the "Apple way" to create apps, so if you have to learn Obj C eventually, it's not goi

I've been on a Ketogenic diet for 3 months now, lost almost 24 lbs. It's by far the best lifehack I've ever heard of.

I'm very happy not everybody shares the motto "move fast and break things".

What's so horrifying about the GTFS format?

This looks legit backed by MIT patents and grad students, but I wonder why a group making this "breakthrough" is going directly to Kickstarter to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars, instead of selling the technology directly t

I dropped Dropbox about a year ago, after realizing I only used it for backups. Although a nice feature in idea I actually never accessed my files on other computers, so I dropped Dropbox and switched to Arq backups. I recommend it for anyo

Yes of course. I was referring to software hacking like the original post.

Well, that programming went mainstream has a lot to do with the PC revolution, as that's what enabled a mass of people to do it for a living. I wasn't saying there weren't exceptions. Of course there are people that started t

Yep, they sure existed (for example at Xerox Parc as well), but Macintosh was the first mass marketed one. To be fair, I guess mass marketed is a subjective term :)

Of course, I agree with you. It's just by referencing the 20 year old age, I was thinking about the circa age when the wide majority of people start their careers (20-25). But like I said in my original comment, there are those excepti
