It's pretty moving. I just wonder what the dynamics may be when this gains traction. I guess it could make you feel ever more lonely when you get down to posting something and nobody reacts in any way.

Nope. Publishing an offer on Craigslist to help with homework via Skype is solving some users' problems, yet has nothing to do with "technical excellence".

You can customize what pages are displayed in the quick dial screen (and pin them, so that they stay there), but you cannot change the images and reorder sites by dragging (you need to re-enter the URL in some further tile).

I think "most of them" is quite a stretch. There indeed is a faction in Poland despising (or openly opposing) Francis, but from what I've witnessed, they seem to be a (vocal) minority. Anyway, that's from an atheist poin

And that's precisely the subjective part. If neither party knows the worth, neither can objectively argue, so we deal with emotions on both sides.

Woah, sounds like Internet's Gollum with just one more personality.

May that be because tech is perceived as more competitive or stressful? Lots of people make fortunes these days doing technology and the pace is tremendous, unlike in sciences. Anyway, I think the theory that it's probably just parents

Pandoc can generate and convert between various document types, including Office docs based on a template (although I haven't used the option myself, I just convert Markdown to PDF/HTML most of the time).

Well, at least in Poland (and I'm not sure about the rest of Europe) having graduated from an engineering school (a polytechnic) serves as formal licensing, even for classic engineering disciplines, like e.g. civil engineering. So in o

Until the UK adopts rules regarding SIM card registration which are effective in some other European countries (I know of Germany and Poland): every pre-paid card must be associated with a specific person and vendors won't issue/a

Google does, but DDG has done it earlier as far as I remember.

It's quite interesting in Poland, where you formally have to have a company bank account in order to register a company and banks refuse to open one for you unless you give them your company registration numbers (which you get after re

I'd risk a guess: because salary. Some companies may afford paying more and some may not (because of their current growth stage, market they operate on etc). Even if some of them manage to get past the early stages, employee rotation i

Yeah, there's also a symbol of "Poland Fighting" used during the Warsaw Uprising on the same art.

Actually my university requires exactly six characters for library passwords. They may only be changed by the library personnel and you must either write them down on a piece of paper for them to type or just spell it out loud...

Using an additional byte for the size of the address and the specified number of bytes for the address itself. Then you will only need a few identifiers stored locally to access all the bits.

In Scala, Option[Whatever] may also be null. The difference is that it's considered "some Java compatibility leftover" and never exploited by any sane piece of code.

I like Gradle too, although I very much recommend having a look at QBS (Qt Build Suite, although unlike Qmake it's not really bound to Qt and can be used for general build scripting). I've used it about a year ago and was really a

As opposed to the original explanation, yours actually applies to virtually any CSS framework, so makes no argument after all.

I don't see the article claiming Nietzsche would praise popular culture - it seems to claim otherwise ("Anti-academic Nietzsche may have been, but his mistake was in pinning his hopes on “high culture”") and it's rather
