Came to post the same. Rosetta Code is actually a great resource for understanding the varying capabilities of different languages—the way some tasks are trivial in some languages due to powerful built-ins, while in others they have to be b

I'm confused about the payment model. Isn't all Bloomberg Businessweek content, for example, available for free on their website? Or, even if some fraction of their content is behind a paywall or not available, shouldn't only

Complex and seemingly pretentious design pitches are actually a good way to explain to a company the way a design or design metaphor might subconsciously impact or impress its users. There are two problems here though: 1) the pitch is inane

I've played with Scrapy before to make a proof of concept and I was pleased with how easy it was (haven't yet had to use it for anything else yet). That being said, had no idea how sophisticated it could get. This is super impress

Thanks for sharing. There are some good arguments here,* particularly re: servers holding your registration info and some of the downsides of requiring servers for xmpp (though it also has some advantages—it's nice to be able to messag

Yeah I've never seen an implementation of OTR that blocked archival—in the journalistic sense, it's still on the record so to speak. (That being said, OTR's deniable authentication means I can use my plaintext archive to re
