Mine has absolutely zero appreciation for anything that is not closely related to academia -- I wish you much, much better luck.

It is a sequence. Step 1: find something. Step 2: if it is found, do something with it, and optionally find another thing based on that result. Sounds like programmable semicolon, or a monad, to me.

Fear, I believe, is a core component why American (and generally any) people want to shut their doors and not hear any of this scary stuff. More often than not, myself included.

This perspective made me laugh and earned my honest upvote; especially because it sheds a different light on Google Glass (about which I have pretty negative feelings).

So they kept the money and the legacy of the product. Surely Oracle considered this option? Could have they done anything to prevent such forks?

Earned my upvote because this is indeed a nice deal and probably tons of effort went into creating this kind of relationship with that many companies. However, am I the only one who enjoys setting up Graphite and CI and similar software? (N

Considering this is an announcement for a new software release, the comments were already negative enough. However, yours is just plain rude. Opera has not self-destructed as anything, and in fact they take the steps they think necessary bu

I think I could connect the Million Monkey syndrome to the Linux ecosystem, but what does it exactly mean?

I use it to put important mails such as tasklists on separate tabs so that I can come back to them easily and keep reading other emails.

I, for one, give a shit because I need a standalone email client that fits my workflow better than what we have now (I use Thunderbird nowadays). The Opera logo is merely just encouraging me to check it out.

What does the way you access your data has anything to do with where it is stored? Just because you read your emails from a local copy, don't fool yourself into thinking that the drawbacks of the cloud no longer applies to you. Now, if

I hate the counter-terrorism card being played so often to get free pass with no consequence at all, usually not involving terrorism in retrospective. Counter-terrorism is the new terror.

Loved the article, but there was this big jump between 1 - x^2/2! + x^4/4! - ... and cos x (and similarly with sin x). Why exactly are these equal? (Also, just a nitpick, shouldn't the addition be actually subtraction befo

I've rarely seen well articulated, highly subjective opinions teared into pieces, at least on HN. Usually the provocative, flaming comments get the predictable "you're wrong by definition" responses.

That is false, BitBucket gives you unlimited amount of private repositories with maximum of 5 collaborators.

Which is exactly my point.

Twins are unexpected, but surely they knew at least one child will be born? Even one extra is a huge commitment when you don't have the means.

This was really unwarranted and unnecessarily provocative.

I love your suggestions from top to bottom. I'm very keen on forum software development, and your comment is pure gold or pure diamond whichever can be more purer.

Absolutely agreed. Often I go to my local library just to pick up a random book in the IT section that sounds interesting to me. I feel sorry for the trees when I see thousands upon thousands of pages of empty burbling. There is so much gar

I might have purchased ap.pl or aa.pl instead. (Which one is their stock identity?)

It is controversial because it is complex. You actually need to be able to take in what you see which is in my opinion not true for the majority of movies out there.

I've watched Cloud Atlas a couple of times. Enjoyed every second.

Okay, so ACID all the way, then! No concept or implementation can ever save your data from corruption or disk failure, which is why you need all the guarantees you can get in all layers.

You provide a nice counter-argument in general, but let me nitpick a single concern. After the advent of NoSQL, ACID matters not much less, but in fact a lot more. Startups lose data all around the world because their shiny new database doe

I somewhat agree, but there are better ways to express harsh opinions. You should have considered contributing something to the discussion.

Public key authentication for Github has not worked for you? Can't imagine how that is possible.

PHP's documentation is one of the worst I've found. Generally I have to hunt down edge cases and weird behaviors in the comments section.

Using WordPress is not as brainless as you point it out to be. All software needs to be learned, and from my experience let me tell you WordPress is not always learnt well. WordPress is being pushed only because the majority of web develope

Don't quote and cut half of his sentence off. You tried to change the meaning substantially. His point was that learning PHP properly with all the shenanigans takes at least as much as time as learning a well thought out environment.
