This is not a "small" clarification. The headline is completely misleading - thank you for calling this out.

I personally prefer the "automatically strip unnecessary whitespace from the file when you save" approach, but this is an interesting feature nonetheless.

You can tell it's still early in development, but even now it works better than Linux! (ducks)

Since the Vista-esque frames around the windows are proprietary content you'll need to redo them before deployment unless you're fond of Microsoft lawsuits.

No, you misunderstand. This is for programmers On The Go! This isn't for your lame-duck programmers who sit at a desktop computer all day programming. No. This is for programmers on mountain bikes and skateboard ramps, programmers who

I enjoyed this post a lot because I traveled the opposite path. I started out in computer science with little interest whatsoever in math all through high school. Then when I got to college they introduced the notion of "program correctnes

I think there is less math in undergraduate computer science programs than you might think. If they require you to take calculus or a discreet mathematics course then you might have to re-learn some things, but exponents and logs aren't tha

The following page gives implementations in 33 different languages: http://www.scriptol.com/programming/sieve.php Of course, many of them (including the Haskell implementation) fall victim to the criticism presented in this paper.

"The worst thing that could happen is that the Yahoos will be fired" Some people simply say that they are not a lawyer instead of feeling the need to prove it dramatically.

I know Grammar Nazis on the Internet are annoying but people will think you are not smart. You know how it's a really big turn-off when you read Craigslist posts and girls are like "your really funny" and you just wince? It's like that!

Oh, you changed it just to spite me! :-) Except "Ubuntu-must-have-apps" is just as bad! The hyphen goes between "must" and "have" to signal that "must" is part of an adjective and not a verb!

Oh man, it has got to suck being rejected from a company that makes Frogs in Love, where you set foot on a romantic adventure and bathe in the enchanting waters of distant lands, meet and befriend other characters who will guide you on this

That is totally awesome, thank you for bringing this to my attention. Maybe someday when I'm rich I will build my house like this - less for the energy efficiency and more because it looks totally badass.

Fair enough. It looks like you aren't advocating vitamin deficiency so I can approve. I knew someone in college who ate nothing but mac and cheese. After a few months his hairline started to recede. When this happened he started eating c

If you "sudo apt-get grammar" you can get an app that will teach you how to properly use hyphens so you don't say things like "Ubuntu must have apps" which implies that Ubuntu doesn't have applications but you think it must.

The post makes the assumption that you can't make changes midstream. I think the correct solution is to plan your life assuming you will die at 70 and then adjust your plan accordingly as the life expectancy numbers rise. Life has a servo
