No love for Rails? It's also been around since 2005.

From what I can tell, Electrino is a dead project. Looks like someone picked up the idea and is making another called Quark ( https://github.com/jscherer92/Quark ) though.

I think there's an argument to be made that switch statements already do something adjacent to pattern matching. At the least, it's close enough that something like: switch(expr) { case 'foo': break; ca

Considering it didn't seem particularly difficult to operate your own relay server, I don't really consider that much of a negative. Spin up your own relay, generate some invites for your friends, and share all of your gossip thro

Minor nitpick: API stands for "Application Programming Interface". There are plenty of private APIs in use right now all over the world.

Actually, I would argue that what you did was more difficult, emotionally, than what goes on in government. You had a personal relationship with those people and you were put into a position where you had to, in a way, harm them. I would a

I would disagree on the grounds that authentication is, generally speaking, a well-solved problem for the level most applications require. It's a better use of your time to use a library that's well-used and well-understood rathe

Yes, but it could remove the need to bail out the banks, which is really the crux of the issue when you get down to it. As it stands today, _not_ bailing out the banks would have crippled or destroyed the world economy (at least, that'

I think this might be one place where that rule is broken. I started seriously using VR a while ago and I was blown away by some of the little things that make it 1000% better than a standard screen for some applications. The most poignant

The former. The problem is just that you've learned what the latter means better than the former. I'm the opposite. Plus, the former is an absolute value where the latter is not, as far as I've been able to tell. I know th

You should still be able to do all three. Consider a block around the height of the device and around half the width. You could have one set of coils going around the small edge, one around the middle width-wise, and one around the middle

In regards to 2, for most Americans, it's probably a fairly trivial* matter to infer who they voted for. For a large number, almost their entire lives are digitized in some form or another. I wouldn't be at all surprised if a mo

According to the GitHub page, you can build it on Linux. I haven't tried it myself, as I see no reason to abandon bash just yet.

I think the closer analogy would be being asked to wear a hijab to satisfy someone else's religious beliefs. I don't think that's the same as being asked not to be seated next to a woman because it's looked down upon in

After perusing their site a little and looking at their examples, I can see why this is considered a lost cause. There are a number of even "basic substitutions" that don't jive with the way I've heard words pronounced

My favorite has always been: "Outlaws do X, but X isn't against the law. If we make X against the law, it will make it harder for outlaws to do X", when, in reality, outlaws weren't doing that thing legally (read: trace
