Aw, I was hoping article was going to be about the highlighter's grammar rather than its colors. Perhaps there exists a system other than, "colorize keywords and comments". Or maybe build color into the language itself, as do

Unfortunately the writing seems to be getting worse and worse over the years. There were lots of nerdy jokes in the early seasons, but at that time they were done in a celebratory way. In many of the newer episodes it feels like mocking. Se

Scheme with graphics (i.e. a LOGO module) sounds very good. Kids are much more impressed by getting pictures to appear than seeing a number output.

I submit bug reports when I know it will benefit me. This means that the bug is substantial and the maintainers are responsive. I see it as a wasted effort otherwise.

Looks nice. Here's a few suggestions: - The green "finished" bar on the last page should behave as a button. Take me back to the ToC. - The section/chapter number should be displayed on every page. - Not a fan of the gre

My experience with StackOverflow is that answers arrive very quickly - usually within 30 minutes. The types of questions that aren't "on demand" are usually specific to an obscure API or language. I have a feeling that if the

I have tons of memories of age 2 and 3. My mother would often ask me, "What did you do today?" before I went to sleep, and so perhaps that is why I can recall so much. Interesting memories are: the day I saw light shine on dust pa

Large fonts stress my eyes more than smaller ones. I fit less words in the center of my vision with a large font, which means I read slower and my eyes have to travel longer. Having ~60 character columns is the important thing. Large fonts,

My point was that it's rather awkward to count from 1 when doing programming. For instance, could you rewrite this function where int count = 1; and have it still be intuitive? int count_occurrences(std::vector<int> vec, int

This makes indexing 2d arrays as 1d arrays a lot easier. With 0-based, index = x + y * width, while 1-based, index = ((x-1) + (y-1) * width) + 1
