It would be interesting to hear some of the reasons you went with Go vs Clojure (and also the other languages you mentioned)

This explanation is an excellent way to teach and vs &&.

I think it's great to have a centralized place where you can find answers to subjective questions; however, the current format makes it difficult to digest __why__ something is considered better than its competitors. It would be useful to h

lz is the fastest lazy functional library to work with lists. https://github.com/goatslacker/lz Why I think it's cool? Well it's really fast, and it's lazy which allows you to work with really big arrays. Plus it's a really tiny library p

It's a nice little library but it looks like the meat of it is in Enumerable which is pretty nice but it's really slow when working with larger arrays. If you don't need the events then lo_dash/underscore is probably the better tool.

What are the advantages of using YCM (and its complicated install) vs something like supertab if you're not a C/C#/Objective-C programmer? The website doesn't offer a good explanation. From the docs: SuperTab I have limited experience w

Why does Dart look so boring? I'm just not buying that whole "familiarity" argument. If a language is truly great then I'm sure people will learn how to express their thoughts in that language. I know syntax isn't everything in a language b

The funny thing is that people probably think this plugin will revert their timeline back to old facebook profile. Most users I know who dislike Timeline do so because they don't want you to see their timeline, they had no problem viewing o

Definitely give supertab a shot. It's recently become one of my favourite plugins and now I'm tabbing religiously

Good point except that I'm strictly speaking about Software. I didn't explicitly state it because I thought it was implied.

Completely agree, the implementation should be protected by copyright but not the idea itself.

TV ads are poorly targeted yet businesses are pouring billions into it. I don't believe the hype. Ads do work, and web ads are even better. Not only are some ads personalized, but they also have a call to action. There are many times where

I think it has less to do with this and more to do with them not focusing their efforts on that front. It isn't like their current dev stack is the pinacle of performance either. Give it a few years and I'm sure they'll have native Dart ap

Agreed. Shame to see so many reputable companies not give a rat's ass about security when they seriously prompt for security questions like "Where was your honeymoon?" or "What was your first car?" -- I've even seen "Where did you graduate

I have to agree with Linus on this and it's nice that he's taking time to write out his thoughts in public. GitHub commit messages can be really ugly. I'm guilty of this and it's not something I'm proud of. I think the small improvement the

I will trade in most of that for just a matte screen. I read code all day and I like my terminal black. Most laptops nowadays function as mirrors instead of laptops.

I actually like the widescreen displays for coding. I keep my line counts to 80 columns and now I can have two files side by side. Or a file open and a browser open side by side.

I used to use this simple trick to hide my source where I would tell Apache to treat JavaScript files as PHP applications and then I'd use sessions to show the file. If the session was missing I would display bogus text.

Your password doesn't have to be "6tFcVbNh^TfCvBn" but it can be something like "The quick fox jumps over the lazy brown dog." and still be strong with the added benefit that it's more memorable. Password-less authentication will be great o
