As one of those loyal Reader users, I have since switched to Inoreader via Feedly. For me, there is no single view that works for everything, really -- and the nice thing about a proper feed reader is that you can have a customized display

Since we're talking about FLOSS here, why HipChat? Might as well go with Zulip which Dropbox just open-sourced. https://blogs.dropbox.com/tech/2015/09/open-sourcing-zulip-a...

F7U was an unusual design (cf F35 thanks to the USMC's S/VTOL requirements), and its development period was quite lengthy for its time (though nothing compared to some programs these days including the F35). The F-9F first flew le

This plane sounds like the F-35 of its time -- with even worse reliability!

Interestingly, Shriram Krishnamurthi seems really insistent that Racket is it's own language, taking exception when I described Carmack's interest as being in "Lisp" -- even when I clarified that I just meant Racket is a

Five year support might be too short for some people. If so there's Red Hat Enterprise Linux (and its community rebuilds like CentOS), and SUSE Enterprise Linux. A paid RHEL subscription will even give you security updates for point re

Can you use PIT with Kotlin? Really tempted to try it out but wasn't sure. I suppose if it works at the bytecode instead of source level it would just work.

There is Quasar if you want Go or Erlang style concurrency in either Java or Kotlin (and the Pulsar wrapper to it for Clojure). No reason to bake it into the language -- and as you can see from comparing the Java and Kotlin sample code, the

You can mix and match Java files and Kotlin files in the same project without a problem. Also, for any Java file you can ask IDEA's Kotlin plugin to automatically convert it to Kotlin for you, and likewise if you cut-and-paste Java cod

I could concur on the false positives -- I've had to repeatedly salvage mailing list posts marked as spam. Normally from the mailing lists where I lurk and do not actively contribute, but still...

I'd say the need to use IDE-generated code implies there are missing language features. That's why Kotlin looks really exciting.

I still miss Jaiku. I wonder if they would have survived if either they didn't get acquired by Google, or if Google keep supporting them instead of acquihiring.

the closed-cockpit McLaren portrayed seems to be in between a normal open-car racer and a sports car though. Sports cars tend to have fully-covered wheels even when they are close cockpit!

Wow, this is potentially really chilling. Reminds me of the situation in Thailand, where bloggers have to moderate all their comments just in case a commenter insults their king.

GP actually used falsifiable properly - meaning that the claim is testable (evidence could swing both ways). A non-falsifiable claim would just have to be taken on faith alone or rejected altogether

Apple's anti-competitive instinct seems to be in overdrive these days. This is additional justification for my instinctive wariness to be sucked into their beautiful, expensive, and sterile walled garden.

Very nice indeed, I likewise have been looking for something like this and couldn't find a solution that's not either over-simplistic, or over-engineered "enterprisy" and expensive... until this.
