Lots of double exclamation points in there. I hate that I have a hard time taking it seriously because of such a trivial detail, but I do.

See, when you say stuff like "no chemicals or genetic tampering are allowed" you exclude literally everything man has eaten EVER. I don't really care if people want to consume so-called "organic" food but the pseudo

I like that you think governments do stuff "if they are allowed to do so." that's the sort of charming naïveté I look for in a date.

Asking people why they like what they like is a pointless exercise. And generally, in my experience, it comes from a place of arrogance on the part of the person doing the asking, because the next phase is talking down about how the "r

In my opinion, other people's opinions about how I program are worth just about nothing. I'll never understand the sort of arrogance that leads to posting things like that. do you really believe you're so smart that you figur

What I find most interesting about these topics is how many people come out to contribute to them. Nothing gets people riled up like vaguely threatening the free flow of entertainment. I wish I know how to direct this energy into something

you're incorrect in this case. according to the article, this blameless paragon of virtue deliberately hid his actions.

I think you're missing the point. off topic ranting about why you don't like newegg is why you're being voted down. it has no relevance to the topic no matter how important it feels to you. I say this having no particular all

the point is that in statically typed languages, the type information is used at compile time, and the computer can reason about certain types of errors for you prior to execution. in dynamic languages, the type information may well be ther

Okay, so I'm guessing this is an example of "feigned surprise" that is supposed to be considered bad? I've been on a few sites (very recently) that just stick the password right in an auth cookie, served via HTTP no less

I've definitely found gradle to be faster than maven, particularly using the daemon, and even more so considering the extensive support for understanding when a task is up-to-date. I haven't run a clean task in gradle in several
