grep is simple to use from a simple command. Setting up a Java server and maintaining it is quite a different challenge then running a command with a few parameters. I wouldn't use it because if it goes down, fuck. If I need to ext

Are they both your favorite languages? Also there will always be exceptions.

by luchadorvader 11y ago
I agree that a language doesn't define you but what I wonder if a person's favorite language has some correlation to certain personality traits. I would be lieing if I didn't say I get more enjoyment from some languages wher

I understand your point of view, I guess I'm more bothered by how it seems to me that people are quickly to yell clickbait and just that which if anything could bring more attention to the article. I almost feel likes it's yellin

And that's the type of reaction I would encourage. Yes you stop clicking on a lot of articles, but you're less likely to waste your time. I find that instead of going to around yelling clickbait, just ignore it, or at least make

Why do you say Lua is better designed? And are you comparing classic JS or ES6 JS? I like Lua but there are some things that just annoy me like indexing an array with 1, smaller standard library, etc. I find JS implementation of inherita

this looks really cool but have there been any recent updates or is the source code anywhere I can look at?

I feel like this is the most anti-pythonic thing I've ever seen.

If I was developing a spreadsheet in the browser I would use the lowest level abstraction possible for performance (which is what they're doing since the jQuery is just a wrapper). When you're potentially managing tens of thousan

What is the support for IE? I can't find it. I figure that would be very important if it's going after enterprise companies.

One thing that irks me about libre office is its hacky VBA support. I would think that they would try to support it where I could open an excel file and have the VBA code run the same in both platforms. But a lot of the time it crashes ev

I just don't understand comments like these. Providing a blanket statement that doesn't provide any reasons whatsoever. It doesn't really help contribute to the post, and it just angers people. I hate the term troll, but

I like this idea a lot, but it's somewhat difficult to use when you have to flip back and forth in a sentence to connect parts of it together especially since a lot of languages cannot be translated word for word. It would be nice to

I'm going to give it a shot again, but when I tried before it was buggy with support for that version. It seemed like it technically connected but it wouldnt run any queries nor show any of the columns. Now that it's 1.0 I'

Absolutely agree with HeidiSQL. I'm in a situation where I'm still running MySQL 4.0.26 and essentially nothing properly supports that with the exception of the old MySQL query client (not workbench) and HeidiSQL which blows mysq

It is ridiculous but at the same time tackling a problem of this size will provide so many new solutions to other problems as well innovations for new things that we might have not thought of. What we can gain from trying might be worth do

Just curious but why not Lovelace or gates?

Really? If so I'm interested. I would love to help with a project like this, I'm tired of passing word docs, excel sheets around to customers with the chance that I might have something out of date.

I wouldn't think it was that surprising. Businesses, especially consoles, want to be seen as reliable and good quality in order to develop a strong relationship with their customers. If it commonly fails right after the minimum warra
