Why are they trying to "solve" dinner? Heaven forbid we don't rush around at all times to maximize the amount of time we can work instead of spending time with family.

I have taken a few stabs at programming with C, and every time I get the language concepts down fine, and hit a brick wall dealing with linking/loading/compilation. I've found a book that deals with linking and loading in det

I'm a big fan of Love and Lua, but one thing that always bothered me was that there's no real "great" solutions for a) cross platform/web/mobile distribution. I know there are 3rd party solutions but for as mat

2 neat libraries I've found to work like this are Surreal[1] and CSS-Scope-Inline[2] to get your Locality of Behavior (and Style) without a huge overhead. That said, your markup can get unwieldy fairly quick, and you end up with a lot

Honestly I think you're doing Caves of Qud a disservice by comparing the two. Yes they are both very much heavy into procedural generation. But Caves of Qud is a roguelike/RPG. It's a game, where as Dwarf Fortress always felt

It's not a dependence like mental addiction. Your body becomes dependent on it. Your sinuses "rebound" and all but completely block in absence of the spray. I had a cold that blocked my nose up so bad I couldn't sleep be

I absolutely love what Pony brings to the table. Unfortunately, while true, this video does nothing to sell the language. In the video, and even on the website, it says essentially - if you don't have a hard concurrency problem, don&#x

I think the intention of the Click-to-Cancel is in the right place, but I just imagine the actual implementations will be on par with the AdChoices[1] opt-out of affiliate advertising thing where they present this feature that is literally

Old school OO languages where they had to use classes and objects to patch missing language features probably did suck. OOP as an abstraction API on a modern, type annotated language is really nice and intuitive. Anyone in doubt, but open-m

The thing I noticed was how bloated and mask-like his face looked. Reminded me of Norm MacDonald near the end that in hindsight was proof he was obviously very sick. I'm no doctor or anything, but his appearance looked very "off&q

OpenSnitch prompts you when there's network activity. So if random app makes a telemetry call or something, you get the option to white/greylist that connection with granularity, like OK to make a connection to that address from t

I reserve the right to be spectacle about Big Sugar having something to do with funding this kind of research, BUT if it is true, this does kind of suck. Erythritol seems to be THE non-sugar sweetener atm. They put it in everything. So much

I don't think you should conflate free price and free source. [A]GPL is about availability of source code. It's end-user protection. End users should be able to know what's going on with their software and should be able to t

As a Lua user and a big fan of Qute et al browsers, I really want to like Luakit, but they've had a video bug[1] (they don't work at all) for a long time, and basically just ignore the issue as "not our bug" because it

Which pattern did you find complicated? Most of them just come down to "wrap it/them with a new object to encapsulate the new/shared state or provide the new behavior". The rest are probably made obsolete by modern progr

Tab width of 3 is actually really nice in languages like Lua or Ruby that have `end` as a delimiter. It makes nested blocks "step" down very aesthetically.
