The author is clearly claiming that feature is unique to Swift: "Why did no one think of this before?"

Maybe you just haven't met the right people. I definitely "just do it" all the time. When I needed to develop a single page app for the first time, I just did it. When I found I needed to automate server deployments, I just d

Also, the eye contact thing: you're not supposed to use Glass while you're having a conversation with someone any more than you would pull out your phone and look at it in the middle of a conversation. The fact that it's th

I used to write a lot of ARM code in the 90s, and, though I say it myself, I thought it was all very readable code. Of course, it was more heavily commented than code I'd write in a higher-level language, but also it's about struc

This is really interesting to me. I actually started writing my own about three years ago, also called 'jsbeeb', in CoffeeScript. I didn't get around to finishing it, but the 6502 emulation worked, and it has just enough peri

The more information about this kind of thing the better, as long as it's well written, but why do you target it at self-taught programmers? Do you assume they know less about the topic than someone who has done a CS course? I'm a

People say that a lot, because they've heard it somewhere, but do you actually have the facts to back it up? I'd have to check my books to be sure, but I think you're talking about SMS delivery over the SACCH. That's an

You use the term 'front end' very differently to how I would. Some of things sound like middle tier.

Dart and AngularDart on the front end. Scala + Play! Framework in the middle tier. Scala + Akka on the back end. PostgreSQL. Jenkins for CI, Ansible for deployment.

So you're saying the issue is that we need to teach women to be more confident and less worried about what others will think of them?

IP over DNS, TCP over DNS, IP over ICMP... surely somebody is running a service with all of these for maximum captive portal avoidance?

> Golang I see this a lot. Do people not realize that the language is called Go, and that 'golang' is just a domain name, like 'ruby-lang', 'scala-lang' etc?

Exactly. The FAA isn't going to just start handing out PPLs to anyone with a driver's license.

Serifs are irrelevant, and browsers have had variable-width fonts since Mosaic, WorldWideWeb and ViolaWWW, so making textareas use a monospaced font and specifying their size like that seems to have been just laziness. If there was a good r

This article makes me sad. Here's a guy who has only relatively recently acquired skills in hardware and firmware development, but he already thinks he's in a position to arrogantly shit all over what he calls '“Maker” folks

No, it doesn't really hold up. To use an example of where I recently had to change the way I thought of things: you might have, say, an intuitive understanding of the logic to make a series of dependent network requests, any of which c
