Unscharf (the adjective to Unschärfe) can be translated to "out of focus" or "blur", which kind of describes the phenomenon figuratively.

Oh you're right! I've overlooked the 'sibling' when I was reading the introduction. May I still voice my pure repugnance towards JSF :P?

As someone who spent a long time with JSF, I can say that using angular on top of JSF is one of the worst ideas I can think of. Not that using JSF itself is any better. My hatred for this technology is sincere.

Another thing I forgot to mention was tooling. With Lua you can already get debuggers, libraries and IDEs that other languages still lack.

I totally forgot about AngelScript. It really has the lowest context switching overhead, but you get to keep the verbose C++ syntax in return, which is a trade-off. Personally I don't mind if a language differs somewhat, but with Lua I

I used to have a program with an embedded Lua interpreter where I sometimes needed to switch back and forth between C++ and Lua. It's insane. Arrays don't start at zero, you create blocks with keywords and then there are some mino

In my experience, every problem boiled down to some weird MS Office quirk which, quite frankly, even occur among different MSO versions!

I wanted to make a similar comment but I don't understand what you mean by language choice. In my experience broad design choices can make it different to optimize later on, if you mean that.

I once googled (before I had privacy plugins) for a coffee machine. Bought coffee machine. I was stalked by coffee machine ads for a month.

> The puzzle aspect, though, is in my opinion, close to perfection. I found most of the puzzles so far sudoku-esque (mainly the symbol-puzzles). You don't get the solution by structured, logical thinking, but by trying out what cou

I agree, as a Tumblr outsider I'm under the impression that Tumblr's (community) importance is mainly self importance.

The prices for the larger ones are ridiculous though. 800$ for a 5-bay NAS without HDDs is a lot. You could easily build 2 or more NASes with the same specs for that money. Also, having used a Synology I think it's a niche product. It&

You already see innovation from Intel to segment the market so that they can maximize profit without increasing processing speed (for example the way they artificially separate their server from their desktop CPUs). In the long run I hope y

The game looks bad. The article gave me the impression that the author had high expectations, based on comments from testers. The reality is that every day, dozens of games get released that look more interesting than the author's game

Except the GUI of all the programs. I still can't use some dialogues in Eclipse because panels are cut off and buttons are outside of the not-resizable window. This stuff happens way too often in Gnome.

In Germany it's the opposite. Any critical opinion towards immigration is immediately branded as racist. Newspapers won't report wether crimes are commited by Germans or refugees (I don't know if it's by law). The police

I may have bought the explanation if the answer below hadn't been marked incorrect as well, because the axis on an imaginary array are arbitrary.
