I've heard snacking is actually pretty good at maintaining your blood sugar level. Most people just snack on crap food though, and that's obviously bad.

Uhhh, if you've had fried chicken you're probably eating the skin. And as you noted about the Chinese eating many things, I believe its pretty common that they eat the bones. I think bone marrow is common in some European dishes.

The article, while informative, feels like a subtle Avast advertisement. It's mentioned 16 times in the damn article, and the author even vindicates it for not preventing problems and also compares it to AVG saying its better.

This is pretty awesome. The trade-offs between the two optimized versions of Graham's scan and Jarvis' march are pretty interesting too, based on the number of points that lie on the hull.

I stand partially corrected. The visa perhaps costs between your stated numbers, but I've heard the lawyer fees push that number far higher. I worked at a company where the application was rejected at first, and the fee basically doubl

I think it is terrible that companies are taking advantage of foreigners, but I also keep seeing this $20,000 number thrown around a lot. That's how much it costs for a company to apply for an H1B. The companies should not be using tha

If it is true the FBI tried to cover their asses, heads should roll. This kind of stuff is so despicable. If it is inconvenient to get a warrant, then that's where your job ends. My civil liberties should not be crumbling because of ov

I remember reading they pulled the implementation almost straight out of TAOCP, from good old Donald Knuth (if that's enough of a name drop). It might not be great, but at least it was from a reasonably respectable, academic source and

This looks cool, are there any tutorials on how to build a project from the ground up with it? I've hunted around the website without luck.

As one of the 20-something's making cell phone apps, I have to laugh a little bit about how much we get bashed. I feel bad when people get kicked out of their houses, and I wonder how terrible we really are. But I'm not walking ar

I'm pretty happy someone actually wrote something about this, I was surprised I didn't hear any news outlets talking about the connection beyond just mentioning the other accident. I'm also happy to see some at least slightly

I sandbox Facebook inside Firefox, its the only thing I do with that browser. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy for continuing to use the browser too, I like Mozilla.

Interesting problem for committers. Since Github made the hub tool, maybe they could make this person's flow better right from the web UI somehow.

Seriously, having competed in only 1 regional ICPC myself, I was blown away at the level of knowledge of some of the students. Some kids were coming in from high school with serious programming skills. Makes me sad when I go back to work no

They provide more than just a CDN. They manage your DNS so there are many more things they can do to deflect attacks.

I think people, or at least people like me, want languages that don't suck to develop in. Write once is great, but being able to spit some code out without really old language cruft getting in the way would be nice too. Objective-C was

Perhaps its because some people are more productive with dynamic languages and they value productivity over speed.

Your metaphor is pretty harsh but I agree with your sentiment. All these mobile apps need more granular security features, which Google almost released, and the EFF was dying for, but then Google quickly retracted it. Very unfortunate. A ke

I firmly think languages like Ruby and Clojure get it right, nil and false are falsy, everything else is true, end of story. This is one of my biggest pet-peeves with some languages. PHP is horrifically bad, there is a huge chart to consult

It's bad because it beckons bad behavior. Instead of doing the simple thing and changing your if-statement which puts the idiosyncrasy in the relevant piece of code, you are tucking away the behavior out of sight when something like th

That's pretty amazing about the phone number honestly. I meant it only in jest. Having sat in a room with you at Pivotal and hear you talk about your work on Bundler was very cool and I appreciate your work. I know you take feedback se

Good thing Yehuda has his phone number there so people can make sure to contact him directly with their input. I am very excited though honestly, I think he did amazing work with Bundler and is quite smart so I'm sure we'll get so

Having used it for the past couple hours, it looks great! It is pretty intuitive, snappy, and looks great. I'm definitely looking forward to using it more.
