Focus on speed and modularity next to the clear code sounds interesting, but supporting IE 9+ only is kind of a bummer here, because it means "no" for XP users (I use XP64 on my desktop for instance) and there is still substantial

Weird is an euphemism here. It's totally incomprehensible change. My wild guess it's targeting voice commanding, which I practically never use as voice recognition is still not reliable enough (and I'm not always comfortable

No, you're not atypical. If I want to look into some project closer (and that's why I'm searching or visiting particular github page in the first place, well, more often than not), then I copy git:// URL and downloa

Another thing I don't really remember is that BadRAM thing. When I fiddled with it [1], memmap [2] was already there, but for some reason I wanted to use BadRAM or maybe I was unaware of it. BadRAM wasn't present for the kernel I was using,

Common way to detect memory errors in practice (i.e. how it can easily beat you) is by compiling stuff, the bigger the better. When you see the famous Internal compiler error it may be caused by some memory problem. A few years ago

See my response to grey-area. And regarding optimization. Language-defined integer type size is one thing and CPU register sizes used in calculations is different thing. It's not like having 32-bit int forces you (or compiler) to use 32-bit

Ok, apparently my message wasn't clear. (It was written on the mobile phone, so it was too brief.) In practice, only when you're writing some loops with small number of iterations etc., you don't care whether your counter for instance is 24

We have integer madness here and no one is commenting on it. Why making this int change and why now? I don't like Java, but well-defined integer types sizes is a good thing. Most of the world uses intXX_t typedefs in C and C++ too.

I feel that's only PR correctness. They possibly have to claim that it's their own fault. But well, I may be wrong, and Maxis is simply no longer the company that it used to be.

Problem with using Disqus (and similar solutions) is that comments are at Disqus, so you have no real control over them. Yet not many people care about it. Ask HN: Open source commenting systems for static pages - alternatives to Juvia? ht
