This might gets downvoted into oblivion, but my thinking on editor choice is that I either use the lower level pure text editor such as Vim, Sublime Text, Nodepad++ for their speed, or if needed I go all the way with the big ones, like Ecli

A feature suggestion (it might seem stupid to some people, but I think it's interesting): At the lower right corner, every minute or so, pop up a small box containing three or four newly submitted links. The box is only shown for five

Also can someone please give a brief description of whole process to write a simple Android app in Go? What are the bare bone setup(Go, JDK, Android SDK??, etc.), so I can develop and compile? Is the final result an apk file? Thanks.

Vim's usefulness comes from the combined effects of many Vim commands, also the benefit of a unique way of doing things. Sadly this combination is hardly available after only a few hours or a day's study. Knowing only a few comman

No offense to the author, but this reads like a 16 old claiming he finally find the girl who is 'the one' for life. __only two years later__, that Another girl shows up and OMG the new chick definitely is the 'true' one.

I laughed at the end. Reads like a badly written TV script, with so much buildup, tension and all kinds of weird characters in the beginning and middle of the show, then at the end comes a huge anticlimactic duh. "Hello Word!".

>> As for the compiler I think it can already cross-compile to Android. That's great to know. Also, if taking the js/html5 route, maybe Js_of_ocaml can help to ease the pain? I've heard nothing but good things about it.

OCaml and its ecosystem are becoming so enticing day by day I feel like I am running out of excuses not to dive in NOW :-) Obviously it's extremely powerful in many different domains. But one particular area I am interested in is mobil

Neovim will have Lua (and LuaJIT) baked-in too, so Lua will always be there. In my opinion initially there might be many different languages used by developers as they try out the new versatile plugin infrastructure. But after a while only

I disagree. The rendering engine of the browser is the performer who looks at my script(HTML/CSS/JS) and produce the final result for the visitors to the web page. Writing HTML is not closer to performing music, but actually close
