But debits and credits do not use multiplication nor division, so for those transactions the order doesn't matter.

I tried the alpha a few months back, and found it to understandably be lacking, My biggest frustration with it was trying to profile the performance of a complex piece of code with a number of callbacks and such. NTVS would only look at the

Geolocation, specifically GeoJSON. That's the main reason why I chose it (I started working on my app while it was at 2.0). When 2.4 came out with better geospatial indices (albeit basic compared to PostgreSQL+PostGIS) and GeoJSON supp

Am I missing something fundamental here? I think in the home page Q shouldn't be compared to just JSON as they are in principle two different things. If I were to write a 'data language' or to extend an existing language to c

I'm in the Chrome camp, but for the times that I've used Opera's Dragonfly thingy, I've gotten value from it. The only thing that used to suck about it was requiring an Internet connection. A few years ago when I was in

There's an oke who I caught trying to change random listings in a small township in South Africa into something related to him. One small edit that was allowed was for him to map an existing road, but he named the street after himself.

I agree with this. In South Africa we use Whatsapp more than anything (including BBM these days). When I rocked up in Canada, I found that very few people use Whatsapp here, since BBM is losing market share, I find that most if not all of m

Don't think they're going to 'solve' the issue of joins. I think they've taken the decision not to support them. It then becomes an issue of denormalisation, and whether you can actually work on a project with every

I back RyanZAG here (hey Ryan :) ). I went from 4.1.2 to 4.2, 4.3 and now 4.4.2 without hassles. The exception is KitKat where a lot of developers updated their apps specifically to support the new ART. [Rant]: I find that it gets a bit sil
