Paying for a music playback? I am paying for music storage, but playback should use source quality at all times. Exceptions are when the track is uploaded in a lossless codec like WAV or FLAC. Then it should be OGG compressed. If you use MP

Wrong, I simply wasn't using it and heard of the service. You can hear the bad quality by comparing it to a high quality version of the same song on good speakers.

From a consumer perspective, SoundCloud lost my interest when I heard it's 128 kbps transcoded mp3 you're getting when streaming songs. No thanks.

Recognize the real source of the problem. Like you said, someone trying to get information about the topics you mentioned could simply be doing this out of curiosity. Now person A from the government says you are X. However you are not X, y

Wouldn't you agree that the real solution is to fix the a) algorithms and b) assumptions rather than c) hiding the data?

I see your point. If society ends up believing in the fact that assumptions based on collected data have suddenly turned into "facts" then we will be truly...let me say it frankly...we are done for. I believe when this happens Hac

First of all thank you for respecting my opinion. I appreciate it. 1.) Free speech is a completely different topic. Snowden's quote on this page makes no sense to me no matter how often I re-read it. If free speech didn't exist I

"This affects all of us. We must care." is not an effective way of convincing someone. I personally do not care about privacy. I see no reason why I should. It's just my opinion. I know other people do but please don't g

Regardless of how good it is, the presentation could and should be improved. Quick to grasp examples, an explanation telling me which problems this project solves and as a bonus how it compares to other frameworks. All of this should be o

Exactly my thoughts. I use Chrome at home while I can't get around Firefox at my workplace - is there any way to at least fetch the comments by different means?

So your boss is some kind of person who does not want to accept that you're human and have a life outside of the work place? I'd quit that job. Instantly.

Yeah, sorry - I just couldn't find any time to write an online version. Will do it as soon as possible.

That's because there is no online version of the documentation right now. It's only available in the editor, it's an Alpha after all. Just because the compiler is written in Python it does not mean the Flua programs are executed in Python.

"Crack aims to provide the ease of development of a scripting language with the performance of a compiled language." Have you looked at the Flua project yet? It's pretty much this and much more. http://flua-lang.org/

I'm using QThread for PyQt GUI applications. However the GIL makes it impossible to execute _Python_ code in parallel. I can understand the reasons for that, however it doesn't change the fact that it makes my application inherently slower

Thanks, it is really motivating to hear this. I'll definitely keep working on it and there are some planned features which I didn't even mention yet, I just need to find the time to develop them. Support for other languages is currently not

Appreciate it, sorry that I don't have the time at the moment to give you a detailed answer. Short answer would be: Performance, Scalability and Reusability but that sounds too abstract. Maybe I'll find the time to write an article about fu

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll try to work on it. Both the language and the editor are currently in development (it's just an alpha version) but as a user you need to use the editor due to technical reasons (syntaxless). Of course you cou

The bp editor has similar features (code bubbles), though dynamic evaluation and code bubble workspaces are still in development. And I'm pretty sure it won't cost me 300k to finish it. http://blitzprog.org/
