"More than ever, I just wanted to be alone. Alone with my thoughts, alone with my computer, alone with my hobbies." That sounds neither sad nor crazy or anything else people might tell you. It's quite normal. You maybe an introvert. Which i

Absolutely. I hate JS as much as the next person, but I hated the for lack of a better word, fuckedupedness, of dozens of languages and yet I still programmed in them. cough Perl cough Elegance is never the primary concern of code. Readab

Not at all. The disrespect comes from the stupidity of the title and people making it. Rockstar? Ninja? Evangelist? Really? How about Shaolin Monk JS? Hung Ga JS? Hung Fut JS? Is the absurdity getting through your brain yet? And if you're t

There's anti-virus and then there are the programs that fill in the gap where the AV program lack. A simple google search will yield you the results.

Better software exists (for free). A little research will lead you to it.

Enlightenment? Lol. If you are enlightened by this article, you really don't understand software.

The mass adoption (and with it, the mass misunderstanding/misconfiguration) of Windows makes it a much easier target than UNIX based platforms like OSX, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, etc. That along with the horrible architecture of Windows systems t

Yes, he can create the next great security product from jail. ;-)

There is software out there that specifically targets zero day attacks. It would be a conflict of interest for me to mention specifics, but a trivial matter for those interested to find out.

Yes, but it's my understanding that the Hindi concept is much deeper than that. I don't presume to be an expert on this topic (Hindi karma), however. Philosophical karma is a different thing and very simple. What is attached to popular karm

It's highly unlikely, but it's the path to pursue. JS is not the web's assembly language except to people who can't program in it. The added complexity is another (3rd, 4th++) language. If you can't see that, you're blind.

And this really has no bearing on a discussion of JSON, a data exchange format.

"Anecdotally, a typed version of JSON decoding is much nicer to work with." How so? Considering that JSON isn't strongly typed.

"I have some skepticism of the viability of the ChromeOS" Lol. Ya think? I give it a couple more years at best. Some things just can't be done as web apps. Well, at least until someone figures out not only how to make fiberoptic cables perf

Yup. Might as well get a Mac, though these days the hardware only looks tough but is quite flimsy. Still better than the plastic shit everyone else puts out, but if I can mess up a fan by simply picking up the laptop ... damn consumer devic

Yup. I have not found a better input device than a keyboard for general computing. Touch screen is nice, but when you have to do real work, it's worthless. I don't even want to imagine the repetitive stress syndrome injuries that are going

11" MB Air. Nowhere close to $500, but you shouldn't expect that. No, it's not dead, and it's not resting.

It's not laziness, it's willful ignorance. Much worse.

by lucian303 14y ago
Yeah seriously. And what are "the rest." It's better than Communism, but that doesn't mean shit.

True. But does a better alternative to rule of law exist? Perhaps. I'd love to hear thoughts on this.

Seriously. Ad hoc methods are for querying RDBMSs not for governing people.

We already have. That's why we're in this mess. The only time the constitution is invoked by politicians is to stall the other side because they know that the basic tenets are gone. The Bill of Rights? One or two amendments might still appl

PHP has json_decode() and json_encode() which do all of this correctly ... GO is interesting, but production ready? Not for awhile.

You could just put on your screensaver as the way the information is presented is useless. Looks cool though. Just like my screensaver. Not quite as nice.

Nice. Putpocketing. I'd say that's easily just as if not more so valuable than pickpocketing. I'll leave the reasons up to your imagination.

Too bad the signal to noise ratio is so horrible. Not to mention the addiction / anti-productivity factor. I still love Reddit. I quit because I love it.

Not only that, calling this "karma" and identifying with the popular notion of "karma" which has no basis in any philosophy but irrational, illogical thinking, is quite ironic. If you do something good to someone, something good will not ha

Sounds like you guys did your due diligence. In that case, of course, writing the app to move them over is the right choice. Thank you for the article, BTW. It may be obvious to some but not to most. Especially contributing to documentation
