I've tried Eclipse, Netbeans, Komodo IDE, Geany, and found them either too clunky and unusable on my older machine, or too barebones with little intellisense. I did start using Sublime Text once, but didn't stick it out long enoug

I'm actually a pretty hard core Linux user who avoids M'soft products when possible, but it's hard to deny I good IDE when I see one. I've never been able to navigate emacs/vim with ease, and sans them, I've ne

Democracy is typically a thing that is grown at home, not a thing that is "given".

I hate headlines with "might" in it. Let me know when you figure it out - otherwise you're just littering my brain.

That's outweighed by the fact that I don't own the ebook in the same way I own the book. The book is mine to keep, loan, rent, throw away, donate, etc, in a way that's not governed by esoteric license agreements. I can wait 2

Does getting that graduate degree help? I stuck it out for the degree (Computer Science), and I don't think it helped much with my job prospects. I get paid the same as my peers who only did undergrad.

That's a very interesting explanation. It's much clearer now, thank you!

I just reread it and don't detect that undertone. Could you explain it?

If they're interested in doing this for the customer's sake, they should offer the customer a choice. If they're ramming it down people's throats, then they're really just doing it for their wallets.

Did anyone look at the list of permissions? Amazon isn't paying developers for interstital ads ... it's paying them to have an excuse to track everything on your phone: http://www.amazon.com/Amazon-com-Amazon-Under

How does IBM keep doing cool stuff like this when every impression I have of them is a slow moving, lumbering, IT services monster that's lunging to provide solutions for Big Business?
