For my own projects, I have found make's alternatives (eg. scons) to be a much superior choice. Make is just too complex for what it is intended to do (at least as used with autoconf, etc.).

My main impression after using Scala a little bit (admittedly some time ago): it has some very cool functional features, but they are too slow when compared with the non-functional features. When working on a program for which performance m

I was actually going to include that in my comment. Go really needs generics.

Many things are valuable. Conciseness per se is valuable (I don't think you will argue in favor of unnecessary verbosity in programming). However, of course this is just one of many factors, and any programming language will have to fi

The most obvious advantage here is that the code at the left is much more concise. This is good because then more code will fit in the same screen. Not sure this is what Go needs though.

There is another reason why downloading software from "somewhere else" is less than ideal in a case like this. The reason is that the pirated download might not be the original software as provided by the developer; there is no gu

Steam on Linux works perfectly to me. I have also used Steam with Wine for games that won't otherwise work on Linux. The experience with Steam + Wine is uneven; some games works perfectly and others don't; but Steam on Linux works

You have to click on another cell for them to evaluate (pressing return does nothing).

Very nice! I worked on a similar steganographic system (not for tweets though) that you can find here: https://github.com/hmoraldo/markovTextStego There you'll find both the source code and a link to a paper expla

I don't think he's a hard read myself. But I do think it is an usual occurrence that Spanish speakers find it hard to read, and I think it is because of the language mainly, and not because of the content. But because I don't

Borges use of the Spanish language was perfect. He had a very deep knowledge about the precise meaning of words native speakers use in a more careless way. And he had the accent, etc. of a native speaker. People might find it hard precisely

I don't have any references, this is based on personal experience of living in Argentina and having seen what people say about his books here (he's considered the hard writer). It's a shame though, because his writing is real

This is kind of surprising, because he is typically considered a tough read for native Spanish readers. I wonder if the reason for this is that, although he uses a much wider vocabulary than other authors (making it harder to read for nativ

I can only see all the potential the security issues for this idea. I don't think I would have this enabled with my credit card details.

I had a similar problem as the same you are having now... I was a successful game developer (considered by many as one of the field leaders in my country), but I started getting bored. After a lot of trouble, I could manage to start working

You can keep programming, there are many specific disciplines inside software development / programming that are intellectually deep. Getting into them is hard, but the reward is infinite.
