This looks quite good already. Nice work. I would love something to substitute for the drab experience of FM. Would you be offering Linux support in the future?

I did not intend to call you a noo[n] (and neither to misspell it that way. Typing on the phone is hard). Neither did I mention anything related to open source to cause you any annoyance. Linux offers a lot of pick your own adventure style

The Broadcom fix is literally one apt-get install command. The driver issues keep happening because companies are loathe at releasing drivers for Linux or even provide support and assistance for third party drivers. Here's looking at y

I think that is because Ward Cunningham wanted to transition to a static site instead of running it old style CGI way. See also: https://github.com/WardCunningham/remodeling/issues/2 http://wardcun

I'd love to live longer if I could stay young throughout. Death is not a pain point for me, but old age is. After watching my grandparents slowly lose control over their bodies, I don't wish to go through that same phase.

So I recently had a chance to use these APIs for a Microsoft hackathon project and wow are these APIs unstable right now. I was trying to use their Linguistic Analysis API for POS tagging some text, and even for text as short as 500 charact

Sure, I am extrapolating a bit based on present trends, but this actually kind of happened with Spacemacs, which is an Emacs distribution. On the issue which was opened for including a CoC, the original maintainer was against adopting the C

I liked it much more when open source was about the code and not the people behind it. Nowadays I worry that I might be called out for using a piece of code (however good it might be) just because the person who wrote it does not use "

That is highly impressive. I would like to be able to save 50% of my net income, but I have found that I have very little control over spending and end up saving only around 20%.

I have not used VS as much as I have used Java IDEs, but I'd say they are on par. VS shines in how well the debugger is integrated with the rest of the environment, but both NetBeans and IDEA offer very close to the same level of conve
