   This: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KB_US-International.svg is much easier then this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:German-Keyboard-Layout-T2... Of course that's probably the reason why the braces were chosen at all :P

   It's not about writing english per se. How often do you need to write {[]}<> in a letter? Those keys are really easy on US layout but horrible to type on a german keyboard layout. Holding alt-gr and press 7 or 8 or 9 or 0 is surely

   I always wonder why so many languages are sooo bad to use on a non-us keyboard.. I'd love if language designers would consider other keyboard layouts more often.. :(

   blah blah blablah, i can stop reading your comment right at " it is the person using the weapon", that's the stupid stuff people keep repeating over and over and over again, like it would make sooo much sense, it's hilarious. Do you honestl

   Well, given that Xamarin doesn't seem to support Linux for their newest IDEs it's especially a shame. I'd prefer .NET/Mono over Java (and i'd prefer python and C over .NET), but it doesn't look like there's support for that.. Last time i tr

   It's a shame that Linux support at Xamarin is obviously dropped in many places, so no Mono development for me. :(

   I think it funny that you mention Japan, because only last week i was very surprised how hard you're fined for drinking and driving in Japan, even the passengers of a car where the driver drank alhohol. :) Do not drive after drinking alcoho

    I certainly don't equate marijuana to beating people (where did that word marijuana came from? It was about drugs. What about Krok? [1] Besides, you could count the victims of the drug scene, the mafia, gangs and everything that is behind d

    Ah well, just because you like the "freedom" of doing illegal things and the reassurance that if you're caught there will be virtually no consequences, doesn't make it right. There are people out there that say "And personally i like to bea

    I'd describe Singapore strict laws just as effective and strict but in exchange you get a very safe and clean country, no drugs, no garbage, no theft. That's ok with me if (and only if) those laws are not exploited by the government. i don'

    Yeah, sounds like the usecase for an easy-to-use "code review" tool. Shows and discusses differences.

    Since i practically never write Java, i'll just stick with PyCharm then.

    In hindsight i was wondering exactly that. Would i really get a 100% PyCharm when i buy the IntelliJ IDE!? That would make me buy IntelliJ on the next discount opportunity ;)

    Yes, SEO has clearly a negative notion for me. To deceive the search engine and make it less useful for me is practically the job description of SEO, in my opinion. For all the "no-evil" stuff, it's just plainly the work of a website progra

    Am i the only one who thinks that SEO is more a plague then it is a real profession? Google making it hard for SEO is exactly the right thing to do. Making it impossible for SEO should be the ultimate _goal_ of a good search engine.

    Exactly, it doesn't have to get in your way and that is what PyCharm is doing. Interestingly, after buying i had the need for some easy python debugging and was surprised how well it works, even "remotely" on a vagrant machine. The vagrant

    I've bought PyCharm and WebStorm recently when they sold it for 75% off last year and i must say i am extremely well pleased. Up until today i would've thought SublimeText2 is enough, but PyCharm just kicks ass, with its vagrant/debugging/s

    I don't get how you making a mistake (pressing the wrong button) is the problem of the Operating System. It's just you doing the wrong thing.

    So he is actually saying that too few people use Linux. And few people use Linux because it has so few good games. What surprise. P.S.: I'm really happy how Valve pushes forward with Steam and am surprised to "already" see some bigger games

    I'd rather have the calculator pop up for you, then myriads of Linux Newbies complaining that their Laptop doesn't fully "work" out of the box in Linux and thus Linux sucks. Also, as mentioned by others, there are all those special buttons

    Well, i don't question that flexibility, i have high regards of Gnome and run it for years now. I am not developer of Gnome, so i actually couldn't care less, apart from concerns of how the development of gnome turns out in a few years. Wil

    Out of my head and with no experience in it i'd think it's a library/framework to give plain C libraries more object oriented features, a type system and overall the base for most or all Gnome libraries. Probably comparable to Qt in that it

    Ok, let me put it this way: What do you estimate is bigger? The amount of plain C libraries or the amount of GObject based libraries? Where would you put the amount of available perl/python/ruby modules? (The amount of C libraries not in GO

    Question is if there is a GObject based library for everything a developer likes to do?

    Agreed with that, although i tried getting into fixing a bug in Geary (a Vala written mail client) and documentation was so scarce, i gave up on it early on, before wasting hours of trying to figure out Vala. It seems to have gotten better,

    I don't know if i really like that approach. I'd much rather prefer Python or even C/C++. There are already so many desktop bindings for Python, why going through the hazzle to support all this in javascript? The documentation will be poor,
