Hmm. What about the difference between building a house from a blueprint vs building software from tickets? IMO the blueprint is a much clearer plan. EDIT: In fact, I'd argue that the software is more like the blueprint itself than the

Whether the price is fair or not is obviously up to you. I personally don't like the deal, so I would rather use alternatives. IMO your quotation marks around _free_ do a lot of heavy lifting.

I like it! I recently got quite interested into different ways of looking at the "seasonality" of the year, financial quarters are definitely also a way to look at it. I really like looking at the way the sun defines stuff, I made

I really like the idea, but I'm not sure how the traditional "Made in Germany" success stories would translate into a digital world. For example Würth is the world leading producer of screws. I think it's a good example

I don't think it's a good idea to have a mix of both in a codebase, because then you'll have to be good at both - kind of defeats the purpose.

I think it's probably more if you are not aware of tuning stereo width or stuff like that, it'll get you to a nice "default". But obviously if you're more knowledgable you might tune this yourself. For loudness ther

I read the thread, and it is said that by now the implementation cannot be changed without breaking a lot. But there are multiple workarounds and fixes you can apply depending on your situtation. There also seems to be a new HTML renderer w

I find this view a bit simplistic. As a reader I find it much easier to follow if I don't have to piece information together from different documents. Including relevant sections in the correct place will improve the flow of the text a

It's true that hydro has a huge impact on the environment, but it is good for the climate. I think it can be worth it to build some hydro power to replace coal. If we don't, and the climate is fucked, then not having built the d

What does that mean? In vi if I press "i" I can't use the arrow keys to navigate the text as normal. In emacs I can. I'd say using the arrow keys for navigation in text fields is a very widely accepted functionality. So
