I had a similar feeling but I can't imagine the game would get so much hype if that was really all there was to it. Maybe different locations on the 4th dimensional plane have different obstacles which would make you need to keep a tally of

I hate this article. I hate anything that says "There are two types of people in the world, those that x, and those that y". I hate it because either: 1) The statements x and y are opposites and combine to be a truism. Truisms are not inter

This is certainly an interesting problem,but without having some access to the data I don't think I could really approach it. Perhaps I am alone in saying this, but I think data mining is interesting while web crawling is boring. Could some

I used to be very much against private methods and though I have eased up a little, I still prefer classes with only a small number of public methods and no private methods. It's true that you have a lot more classes, but these classes can

Honstly, OOP isn't that bad. This would be a lot better of a read if he focused on how C is good, not how he hates OOP. OOP is a valid way to solve any problem, though certainly not the only valid way. Incidentally I wrote an article in def
