Which both games? There will be plenty of games coming out. And if not, Skyrim is pretty much a game you can play forever (and people, including me, still do).

Wow, I wonder where all this skepticism and negativity come from. The Nintendo Switch has me so excited, I can't wait for the launch day! Finally, I'll be able to have one piece of hardware for playing at home and on the go. If yo

People have passions in their life. It might sound silly, but if waiting so long to try a new console makes a person happy, let them do it!

Swift 4? Wow, they surely are iterating quick... How's the backwards compatibility in Swift between major versions? If I understood correctly, Swift 3 was supposed to be the first production-ready release. Or am I wrong?

"Because you can" is the easiest answer you can give to anything. My comment was written because I feel like people say that Atlassian MUST expand beyond developers. So it doesn't feel like they WANT or they CAN.

Yeah, and Bitbucket sucks in any other conceivable way, so I don't see why it should be a competitor other than that they shove it in your face once you want to use JIRA or Confluence.

I would suggest that the author creates a clone of a "simpler" DB like SQLite or Redis. Those have, as far as I understand, good C codebases, so understanding the system should be much easier. This way you could also say: hey! I h

There is a thing in software that is called "sane defaults". Some of the best software tools in existence are a mix of a solid base AND sane defaults. If you have a crappy base and dubious defaults, your software probably sucks.

Why not? Besides UK and Malta, what other non-English speaking country would you recommend? The Netherlands? I don't think the difference is very big and Germany and Switzerland have such great need for skilled engineers, they won'
