API is still inconsistent as hell, if you are curious. Actually, I would say both blaming (a couple of years ago) and praising (right now) PHP are a matter of fashion and nothing more. PHP was and still is pretty simple and practical tool t

No, I generally don't. But thinking of it, I don't know where my pinky usually is. I mean, I don't always keep it on "a": after all, I have to press Shift pretty often anyway. And Ctrl is pretty close: I don't

ctr+[ you mean.

Same here, and I don't even understand why people want to remap Ctrl to Caps (but I never used Mac, so I don't know: maybe it is inconvenient on their keyboards). And recommendation to remap "jk" to Esc always almost mad

Your comment is absolutely unrelated to your quote. The fact that Mongol warfare was quite, uh, violent (which is obviously true) has nothing to do with the fact that Martin's books and especially the TV show have "a cultural visi

I cannot express how much I hate these posts. I read the headline and I'm getting all curious and want to know the answer. But hell no: "The route setter studied the blank gray surface." and I already know the ⅘ of the text w

I'm not sure if I find it astonishing or expected that somebody finds all that magic good enough to both build that tool and to be thrilled about somebody did. I, for one, find it absolutely unacceptable. The whole point of virtual con

Are you joking or what? I, personally, don't use gmail, that's not the problem. The problem is everyone else does. And have you ever (in last 5 years or so) tried using your personal email server to communicate with them? I'm

Except “good old email” is basically owned by Google now, so there’s small choice in rotten apples.

There are free airport lists that are much more complete. Also, two columns (lon, lat) for points would be better, as it's much easier to transform "lon, lat" into "POINT(lon lat)" than otherwise. And, yeah, althoug

Funny, but completely irrelevant if you are serious. Do you know the adage: the less you know, the better you sleep? Sure you do. Do you use it? I don't.

Have you read the comment I'm answering to? I'll repeat the key sentence for you: > you should usually be able to reword any "self-action" commits into system action commits So your suggestion here is completely irrel

So how would you suggest to reword "Refactored invoice parser" for instance? I'm not asking the system to do anything here: in fact, it would be quite unfortunate if it would start doing anything different from what it does

I don't really see, what people mean when they "agree" or "disagree" with this article and the likes of it. Aside of expressing his own disappointment the author points out what is wrong with the academic research,

I don't know why "news" like that are always considered so important. That logo is ugly, but so was the previous one. It doesn't seem like it terribly hurt their business. Not that I don't care about style — I admir

To be fair, are there good web maps? OSM is much worse, for instance. Google maps are pretty usable by comparison.

+1. Another nice (and I guess pretty simple) adjustment would be to show a circle on the map, to help user see, how much "5 km" (or whatever) exactly are.

Same thoughts here. Nothing really impressive in my case, but since I'm used to think that where I live is pretty boring place it's somewhat relieving to see that there's actually life happening around me. I guess I should

So what? I might delete it just for my own convenience. (BTW, it's irrelevant if somebody does so, but if you are curious: I actually do. The reason is it is much simpler to search for something in the cache/history when it's

Nobody can say for sure if he did it knowingly or not, and this isn't the point. One thing is when you try to hide the evidence (i.e. it can be proved that you lied about it), but you fail to. The other thing is when there's no e

Uhm, it's not like they are going to make a street fight, you know. And, by the way, street fights are quite different from MMA as well, and are done with pepper sprays, shockers, sucker punches, fingers to the eyes, teeth, bats, rocks

Well, I heard an opinion that the thing is pretty similar with what you said about "Gladiator". Basically, professional sport is business. For it to be profitable it must attract people (basically, to sell tickets, abut perhaps ev

If it would be MMA — it's quite likely. By the arm bar, yes. If they would be boxing — Ronda would stay no chance. But then it's quite natural, you know. In the chess match between Kasparov and Mayweather, Kasparov would win as we
