Code generation is broken: "You must have cookies enabled to get a code." Well, I do.

Not having Naloxone on hand also has a guaranteed side-effect: death. That makes its side effects irrelevant.

You forgot to fully finish the line of reasoning: "if they use it, then the 'bad' behavior will increase, so let them die."

I'm not sure that assisting people to treat bleeding themselves without medical supervision is unambiguously saving lives; many of those people would have been saved if they had sought medical treatment instead of self-aid, and I don

I agree that overconfidence is harmful, and likely the most harmful part of the human psyche. Some examples: Nazis, slavery (racism in general), communism, societal misogyny (exists in every society of any size), LGBT hate, religious hate,

Nice. The 2-3x improvement is about the same that I've seen in preliminary tests with HHVM on a JSON API in ZF2. There are still many extensions that are not ported at all, something Box didn't run into but I have. These are lesse

> I'm not looking for a language battle here, but is inventing your own language based on your favorite language to bring common features from other language really such a good idea? It worked wonders for C++.

In my experience, branching has only been mainstream since git became popular a couple of years ago. Before that, when using svn and other similar systems, branching per feature was unlikely in my experience and a major pain.

I totally agree. I like all the specs except for the price. Cut in in half and maybe you might have something decent. Otherwise, I can just turn off the wifi, tape a sticky note to my camera, and install Linux myself, thank you.

What qualified Steve Jobs to start a tech company? Right - nothing! What qualifies anyone who is not technical to start a tech company? Perhaps you should ask the non-technical founders of almost every single successful tech startup. Maybe

I think JS in the browser is a great way to start developing these days. The setup is close to zero (a script tag), the dev/build/deploy cycle amounts to saving the file and reloading the browser, and the language itself, while fa

Your post is a perfect example of what the author is referring to: stupid people in the community trying to make others feel inferior for programming in a certain technology. When it comes to PHP, such posts are inevitable (that's how

So if I'm understanding correctly, this terribly written article (he tries to make a point about merging but doesn't actually make it amongst other points he fails to even state) suggests using feature branches inside the code ins

I don't think the experience is necessary. He wants to found a company not be an excellent engineer. That means as long as he can get a prototype out, it doesn't matter if it's all spaghetti code. It's startup code and i

What's to stop people from using strong encryption on their own, illegally, end to end? It's not like this is the first time the government has inserted itself in between people's legitimate communications and intercepted the

I agree, but if it hasn't happened for women's issues, it won't happen for technology either. From the point of view of those in charge, it makes sense to have politicians be as dumb as possible. That reduces the chances of a

Yes, this is persecution because possessing firearms is protected under the second amendment and moonshine production isn't. I have no idea what point you're trying to make.

Thanks for attacking my character. Right, of course having a mysterious unidentified binary blob in what's supposed to be free software isn't really an issue. What a load of shit. Enough said. As for malware alerts, I expect them

It bothered me because I can't use Chromium to get away from such a stupid feature and the huge security hole / risk that is its implementation despite the fact that that is the whole point of Chromium's existence and OSS sta

At this point, the only think keeping me on Chrome/Chromium is their dev tools. After the 'Ok Google' binary blob and now this shit, I've just about had it. At the very least, there should be an option to unblock sites p

It really depends on the state. Making blanket statements about guns in the US is simply ignorant and stupid. In NJ, for example, it's not even safe to move your guns when changing residences, let alone taking them out of the house at

tl;dr: NSC can resume mass collection of phone records using their own data centers and in about five months, they have to move the data to a different data center. Yeah, that's a big win for privacy.

The professions you should be comparing programming to in this case are not admin assistants or spreadsheet users. Of course they won't care because it makes no difference to them. How about computer graphic artists. Do you think they

Regardless of why he won, the fact that he did win at the federal level and would serve no time even if convicted in NY clearly shows that Vance just wanted the conviction for his own selfish purposes. Probably for his conviction numbers. I

Whether or not HFTs are rushing to buy the stocks or they have the stocks already, doesn't change the fact that proximity to the data center allows HFTs an unfair advantage. It's unfair either way.
