You sound like someone who hasn't used Windows 8 before, or not for longer than half a day anyways. Windows 8 in desktop mode really isn't any different from Windows 7, except for the fact that the Start menu is now fullscreen ins

The Netherlands has a rather liberal drug policy, and because of that, considerably less drug addicts than other European countries. Also, addicts will be addicts. I'd rather they get the money than steal it or kill for it.

You are confusing "minimum income" and "basic income". "Basic income" is something everyone gets, employed or unemployed. Whatever you make in salary comes on top of that. So there is no "why would I work

I assume the point is that countries don't want to break with "The Internet", just "The American Internet".

Or, more correctly, you attribute to the author a lack of understanding of how the American system works, because you disagree with him. Meanwhile ignoring that the author, while writing this article for Al Jazeera, was a senior Washington

I like to think of myself as a polyglot programmer and I can't help but disagree with your statement that ASP.NET MVC only looks good because Webforms is so horrible. 1. I am not sure why you have problems testing the wrapper classes.

Why is the textbox transparent? I haven't seen the actual transition in action, but it certainly looks sloppy this way.

JetBrains is one of the most interesting developer-minded companies out there right now and have been for a number of years. Between IntelliJ IDEA (Java and all things JVM, and then some), Resharper (must-have extension for Visual Studio),

To be fair I don't know of any passwords my wife can't know about. But I know that's barely an argument :-)

I don't think anything he said means changing the public API. Moving the methods to another class and making them public there does not mean the other class has to be visible to people using the API.

I'm not sure what you mean. I use two-factor authentication to ensure that people can't log in to my mail from 'new' locations without needing my cellphone. Having root access to the server and being able to reset everyt

I think doing any of the five options the parent post listed (doing one of them is enough, no need to do all five) is easier than installing an operating system. This is why it's still a snarky response.
