I go to an Engineering school, and there are only two classes that use C and are required for my CS major. The first one is the second programming class we take and is three quarters java and one quarter C. Pretty basic stuff. The second cl

There is a very big difference between having no formal education and having a background in something. Especially in computer science where so many people are self taught.

Sorry for the late response. But from looking at the Madrill site, it looks like the API is a RESTful API so you should be able to use it with Python. And also should be possible to build a Python wrapper for it. EDIT: And as I clicked on a

Ya that project looks awesome. There are a few things he has I don't think I will run, but I think I'll start with it and go from there. Thanks man.

Counter Argument: (Not saying I disagree, just a different point of view) It is possible that having a commercial offering, or a way to actually make money off nginx, will simply increase development time over all. Yes, some (most) of that

In colorado with Amendment 64 there is a distinction between Hemp and marijuana. So one can safetly grow hemp for use in papers or bracelets or whatever else you want. It isn't regulated like Marijuana will be. For those who are unawar

I doubt this actually. I assume it would be more like how the laws are in Colorado with Amendment 64. Adults, over 21, can grow up to 6 plants and posses up to an ounce. Growers are regulated, similarly to distilleries, but they are not gov

Was Linux represented in your test group? Was k-mcgrady right that all the different distros made none of them make the top 10 list? With the people I know and work with Linux seems to be the most popular option for programming so I am curi

It also includes designers which in my experience are almost 100% mac users. So that will sway the stats more in that direction as well. What is weird to me, is under Software we see Windows 7 and even Windows XP but we don't see any f

I think this article misses a main point and that's the fact that all await does it take a function that used to be asynchronous and makes it synchronous. While yes, there are definitely use cases where that is nice, in general I think

I agree that he (and you) shouldn't be getting down voted. But I don't think that "Move Fast and Break Things" necessarily means not striving for excellence every time. To me it or more of, since in Programming there is

I understand where you are coming from, and I don't like the "it allows people to get into programming more easily" excuse either. But I don't really think it will inhibit growth. I think that it is more likely just to c

Slightly off topic, but is it just me or has Lua gotten a lot of attention on HN in the past weekish? I haven't heard much of Lua before but recently it seems to have come up a lot more. And even more off topic (sorry), what makes Lua

A few days late in my reply, sorry. The distinction I make is that it isn't Facebook that is violating your privacy. Facebook. If anyone is violating your privacy it is your friend/family that is giving the information to Facebook

Can I ask why it worries you? Honestly just curious. Is it the performance hits of more levels of abstraction? Or fear of all data being in the "cloud"?

by coreyja 13y ago
Ok so maybe I'm alone here, but this doesn't bother me at all. How is this an invasion on anyone's privacy? They are just using the info a user already gave them access to. Why does it matter if Facebook has information about

True, but it gives me the opportunity to call myself a Pythonian, so I'm OK with it for now. People always come up with words to describe groups of people, Rubyist isn't the worst one people have come up with.

According to the end of the video, it looks like you can have it interface as a mouse too. So you might be able to make so more fancy analog input. And I think it also said it can interface as/with an arduino, so I imagine a lot more i

Umm I could be wrong, but I don't think that is possible. If it is, how would you go about doing it? I just spend about 30 seconds right clicking on random stuff while pandora was playing and never sound a save that would let me save t

No he isn't being deceitful at all! He explicitly says that he is talking about the performance fee and not the song writer fee. He is very clear to distinguish them in his post. Yes he blends them into the conversation about how much

What do you mean? While there are places that may look down on homeless people more than San Francisco, I don't think there is any place in the US were being homeless is a crime. That would be unconstitutional. Maybe you are saying tha

I disagree. I think enough people are willing to pay for a service that makes their lives easier, and developers especially so. GitHub does exactly that, and their pricing is at a good point where it isn't prohibitive for people just s

I agree but I think the author may have been pointing out the it was a sudden move, since GitHub had turned down VC money in the past. More pointing out the sudden change from their past record of turning down VC's

What point are you trying to make here? Are you just saying that Facebook's general counsel has ties to the Government? Because if so I fail to see how that relates to the current controversy. Many people have connections, and previous

If you don't mind me asking, what level of law enforcement are you involved in? Are you a officer or are do you work more on the DA/attorney side? Just curios, that's all.
